COMMENCE

On a long drive home last night, it just popped into my head to have some kind of word-of-the-day for myself. I know that a lot of people have been doing this, but coming from a country where English is practically second nature to us, i just feel the whim on imposing new words into my vocabulary. And then i thought, why not make a blog about it just to check on the progress of this personal project.


So, let's do this! Or should is say i'll do this!!!


I should begin with COMMENCE, not only because i am just starting this blog but as a toast for my sister as she commences a new life for herself. In a few hours, she's going back to Australia to start a new chapter in her life after she lost her fiance to a tragic, senseless crime just a few weeks ago. I admire her strength in moving on, moving back to the country where they have started building their dreams. I applaud her for the drive to move forward and the will to continue building their dreams on her own.


Little sis, know that we, your family, will always be here for you and we support you every step of the way. We are so proud of what you have become. We love you!

I know that wherever you are, you are in peace. 

Look after my sister from up there and we will take care of her here for you.

You have been loved, and you still are… you will always be in our hearts.
