Many Happy Returns on a Blessed Rainy Day :)

Happy Thrue-Bab or Blessing Rainy Day to all my Bhutanese friends!!! ;) While you celebrated this day with lots of fun and happiness, I too celebrated this special day with different theme, which was my Birthday! :)

Yesterday I wasn’t feeling well. After work, I went to see doctor and asked for medicine. I had fish porridge for dinner and had medicines before sleeping. The medicine made me drowsy and that’s why I hardly woke up today and almost late to work ^^

Although late, I still managed to take a bath. Because last night, Sithar advised me to take a bath in the morning on the Blessed Rainy Day so that I’d be blessed (he mentioned after 8am Bhutan time though, but due to work, I had to take a bath earlier). But when he said that, I told him that I take a bath everyday here. No wonder I am blessed everyday here. He-he…  ;)

Luckily I managed to reach office on time. Once I turned on my hand phone, many Birthday wishes came non-stop from my beloved families, relatives, besties, and friends. I replied all the messages one by one almost immediately (despite I knew that I wasn’t allow to use them during office hour). Make today as an exception please…..??? :D

Here I would like to thank everyone who’ve sent me your wishes from everywhere around the world! I’ve received all your sincere and kind-hearted wishes on this special day. I’m very grateful knowing all of you and becoming your friends in this life. It’s all fate that making all this possible.

Surprise flowers and horse from my bestie :)

Special thanks to my bestie, who has sent me a beautiful bouquet of flowers with a horse this morning to my office as a surprise :) It’s my honor to be your closest buddy. You have pampered me extremely well with the dinner and birthday presents. Thank you so much PY! May you be blessed with good health and lots of happiness in your life! :)

Despite our busy schedules I managed to have lunch and dinner with my other besties. Thank you everyone for your time and your birthday presents!

Delicious Birthday cakes from dear colleagues :)

And today, I was pampered by my fellow colleagues at the office. They bought me delicious cakes in a jar and other requested our Pastry Chef to make a delicious Birthday cake. Hohoho... My GM even sang a Birthday song on the phone, which at first I couldn't recognize who. Lolx! Thank you all my dear colleagues for your time, effort, and sincere wishes on this special day! :)

Home cooked meals and Birthday fruit cake - Nyummy! :)

As for tonight, we decided to have dinner at home. My hubby and mother-in-law prepared warm and full of love home-cooked meals. We invited my brother and his families and my eldest sister to come. We almost missed the Birthday cake as everyone thought somebody else was buying it hahaha... So funny :P

Thank you everyone for coming, again despite you were all busy with work and upcoming exams, you all still made it. Thank you too for all the Birthday gifts that you gave to me! I love them all very much! :)

Special thanks for my Laogong for your time and effort in preparing the meals and also your surprise Birthday's gift. Not forgetting your abundance love for me! Muach! ;)

On this day, I am telling myself to be a better me ‘TODAY’ and ‘ALWAYS’. Live a life day by day with that thought in mind. Whatever mistakes I’ve done in my past towards anyone, please forgive me. I am just a normal human being who has no exception in making mistake. Therefore, with each mistake I ever made, I want to do more good deeds to overcome it and fill my mind with positive and good thoughts always.

At the same time, I want to wish you all a wonderful and happy life out there. We all know that life is short and uncertain. We never know when our time comes. Therefore, fill your heart fully and only with love as it will conquer everything that you face in life, in a more positive way, and be content and grateful for every single thing that you have now, as nothing lasts forever.

Below is one of the Buddhist teachings that my father always says to me – just a reminder for myself and maybe useful for you too :)

"The kind of seed sown will produce that kind of fruit.
Those who do good will reap good results.
Those who do evil will reap evil results.
If you carefully plant a good seed, you will joyfully gather good fruit."

Have a wonderful day everyone!!! Many happy returns to all of you :)
