Did my blog just die?

I call it hibernation. I have such mixed feelings about keeping this blog alive. On one hand, I love flipping through my older entries and seeing how far I've come. How my thoughts have changed. How the people around me have evolved.  Almost 10 years of writing about everything and nothing.

And now it's 2014. I'm 35 this year. THIRTY FIVE. When I was 16, that was like dinosaur years old to me. And truth be told, so much has changed and yet, so much has not. Which isn't always a bad thing mind you. There is a comfort in the familiar, the unchanging. Like how my best friends are still my best friends. And pink is still my favourite colour.

So what happens to this blog? I still don't know. Who reads it? It doesn't really matter anymore because to me, Meow Meow Purr Purr is my safe haven of thoughts and rants for the only reader that really matters: myself. As self-centered as that seem, I think it's a reflection of how I've come to realise that everyone will have an opinion but it's how you react (if you choose to react at all) that matters. At the end of the day, I have to deal with the consequences of my actions and I have to go to bed at night with the decisions I've made. If i can live the rest of my life in the most authentic and joyful way I can, I think that will be enough.

Thank you for staying tuned.
