A Piece of My Life Now

Thank you for the sweet, supportive and encouraging comments that I have been receiving. You have no idea how much they mean to me during this time, especially your prayers. I thank you sincerely with all my heart for the support that you’ve been showing me.

Words cannot explain how much I’ve been feeling and going through these past few days. I can’t believe how 72 hours can change a person’s life completely, but I thank God for all that is happening. It’s very sad that people only learn in times of adversity, but I am thankful that I still learn anyway. More importantly, I am thankful to God for His blessings upon my dad who is able to support my grandpa’s treatment financially. I pray that He continues to shower His abundant blessings upon my family and I during this trying time. My grandpa will begin treatment very soon (I really think I need to save up lots of money for my parents and myself in the future — the sad reality of this world is that money really is the best way to ‘buy time’ and medical treatment is so costly especially if you need to be in top class due to urgency of the case) and by the grace of God, I have learnt so much more about myself. I thought I could only love a person this much, but my heart tells me otherwise. I have learnt to love my grandma who is a difficult person to love, I’ve learnt to love my grandpa without blaming him for his negligence towards his health and love my family despite the drama we have experienced. I am thankful.

On a side note, my blog has hit 70,000 hits! What a milestone. I was telling a friend that once my blog reaches 70k hits, I’ll do something about this blog (secret for now)! I hope to update this blog with fashion and such again soon but until my grandpa’s condition is stabilized, I’m afraid I might need to go on a hiatus for a bit since I’ve been lacking in energy and rest. Please be with me during this time as your support and presence mean a lot to me. Stay healthy and God bless.

Love, Adela

    Oh I’m so sorry Adela. I really do things turn around for your grandfather soon, and you should take the time you need to be with him and the rest of your family and just deal with things, not worry about the blog! Your readers will definitely still be here when you come back I am sure!

    Adela, it’s me, Michelle [carousel eyes]!

    I’m so sorry to hear about your Grandpa. You’re a strong lady if I ever saw one, and I know you’ll make it through just fine. To quote Moses if I may, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” [Exodus 14:13a,14]
