Challenge is The Spice of Life

The town has been busy and getting more crowded. Summer is the time people start booking their plane tickets and making plans to go on vacation. Don't be surprised if you travel to Viet Nam during this time and there are more people everywhere 🙂. The streets have become narrower. Traffic has become more congested, and there are fewer places to park. Aww, I've really missed the simplicity of life for a while.

After visiting another hospital for a better diagnosis and been through another surgery, I had finally overcome my fear and was out of the hospital. The first thing I did was walk to the beach and enjoy the simple things outside. It feels good to be able to just sit down at the beach, take a deep breath and watch the waves. 🙂

It's been a tough time and I've experienced different emotions but now, I find myself feeling better and I'm glad to see that everyone has been so supportive. My friends and family have been there for me through it all, and I'm grateful for that.

I've come to realize that life can't always be all roses and challenge is something that can be found in life, whether it's a physical challenge or an intellectual one. If faced with a challenge, it can make me stronger and better prepared for the next event. This is especially true for people (like me before) who are not often used to overcoming obstacles. When faced with a new challenge, it can help us learn things we may have otherwise never known and make us stronger and better prepared for the next event, right.

During my time in the hospital, I've met many strong women sharing their stories and how they accept the obstacle and live with them. They are survivors and are not afraid to face any challenge that comes their way. Some of them have battled cancer, others have had heart surgeries, but all of them have shown me that there is no limit to what a person can do when they set their mind to it. I have never known before that somewhere there are so many people in the worse situation than us but they don't let the negative thoughts take over their lives. These women come together to share their stories and help each other accept the obstacle and live with them. They are inspirational, and I'm grateful to have known them. They inspire me to be more positive and keep moving forward. ❤️

After all, we’ve been told that challenges are bad for us. But sometimes, those challenges can be good. They force us to grow, learn, and even accept the things that we’re never supposed to get it. I think the challenge is the spice of life. Sometimes, it can be difficult, but it's always worth it in the end.

During my break from social media, the messages I've been receiving from my friends, family, and online communities have meant a lot to me and I can't thank them enough.

I treasure all the support and love. ❤️🤗
