To love is to share.

“Happiness quite unshared can scarcely be called happiness; it has no taste.” - Charlotte Bronte

It was my mum's birthday yesterday (4th of October). I've been anticipating this day since the start of the year. Those close to me would know even better due to the number of times I have mentioned it in my daily conversations in the past one month. LOL. 

If you guys don't know yet, my mum is a teacher. And she loves flowers. So I decided to surprise her at school with a bouquet of roses. I love surprises. The person who is going to be surprised must mean a lot to the person who makes the surprise, or the entire event will not even happen in the first place. Because planning a surprise is not easy. It takes love, time, and sufficient knowledge about the person to plan a surprise (referring to pleasant surprises). So yeah, we love you Sara! Which explains the pleasant and mildly thrilling surprise at Cyberia Crescent that day. ;-) 

On a different note, I'd like to share something that I have come to realize recently. Often we take things for granted, like the people we love. We tend to expect them to know their significance in our lives simply because you know they will always be around, such as, you don't tell your siblings or a good friend that you love him/her because you thought it comes without saying. While that may be true in certain ways, I think we still need to remind these people of their greatness and express our love and appreciation for their presence. I mean, how would they know if we don't say it or show it? And vice versa. We'll never know how much others love us till they tell us.   

Out of billions of people in this world, we are so blessed to have come into each others' lives. Born with feelings and emotions, it is perfectly natural for a person to feel unloved or unimportant at times, just like how we think the world hates us on our bad day. The need to express our love and appreciation is crucial. Spare the time to listen to your sibling/ a friend/ someone who needs a hand, to find out about their lives, and to be the light in their darkness. You'll be amazed by how much joy you bring to people when you shower them with love. 

In the midst of our insanely busy lives, spare the time to tell your loved ones that you love them!

I LOVE YOU GUYS! I mean it! ALL of you! =)
