Attended jx and yanling's wedding last night.. it's always a joy to see friends settling down and i'm really happy for jx! It was also wonderful catching up with long lost friends from hall.. ppl like qx and derlyn, whom i dearly miss.

Another wedding in Dec, and many more next year to come. It reminds me that it's more important to choose the right one and be late, than to choose a wrong one now.

I think, when we face challenges and difficulties in life, the issue is never about the challenge itself, because that can be overcome. But what is the most disheartening, and renders me helpless and at a loss, is when a person is unwilling to see it as a difficulty to be worked on.

I've also realised that I'm not afraid of difficulties, at least not as much as I am of being unable to work on it. I'm willing to work on issues, be it in a team or as a pair, but the important thing is that the others want to work on it together as well. And that in itself has become the most challenging part of the task, as one hand can never clap alone.

And it feels almost like a dead end when you're fighting a lone battle. When you're the only advocate for making things better, for the life ahead. When each time you bring it up, defenses are built and fingers are pointed.

And so, I find myself letting go more and more. There's only so much I can do, and sometimes I don't even know what I can do. It's like convincing parents to send their children to special schools. If they're in denial or if they have their own beliefs, you can only present your point and leave it as that, as the decision lies with them at the end of the day.

So with that, I rest my case and end the night.
