lunch time


I am obsessed with Vietnamese spring rolls. Thanks to all my Vietnamese friends who introduced this magical rice sheet to me. This was my lunch, veges wrapped in Vietnamese rice sheets and nori (seaweed) sheets. I know my spring rolls did not appear appealing at all. In fact, they looked weird especially the seaweed spring rolls. However, I had fun making them. My lunch in fact was way too simple and did not seem tasty at all. But it was pure bliss for me for having my lunch while watching movies. Life is perfect here in Mount Carmel.
I had a Dove dark chocolate with almonds as my dessert. There was a message left on the wrapper.

"Do all things with Love."

Is love the answer to everything? Can you define love?
Love is a big word for me. I am still figuring out what does love really means. I have to admit that it is even hard for me to say that I love myself. I know it is absurd but that was how I feel sometimes. I am a perfectionist and was constantly trying to be the perfect me. When I failed, I blamed myself. It was the hardest part when you could not blame anyone else but yourself. It hurt me to do that. I felt lonely when I turned against myself. All I could do was cried myself to bed and hoping that everything would be fine the next day. However, life is not that easy-going.

I am trying my very best not to be that harsh on myself.  


Smile .Love. Persevere.
