Climb Every Mountain

I have not been blogging for quite a while - in fact, I been very busy with work, what with reports to rush, proposals to write and put into action, EL morning lessons and of course the sec 4 EL oral prep, which is a most draining process. coming up, the music practical sessions...

Been feeling extremely tired. Some days I finish at 10plus at night, and by the time I reach home and unwind, eat, and then relax, it's almost 1am. Then the whole cycle goes on again the next morning, for English lessons start at 7am now. Very thankful for the breather of the 2-day national day break. Yet, these 7am sessions in the morning are most precious, for they are additional time we could have to really give more EL pract and prep for the students. I would never give my morning sessions away, haha...

My mind has been getting more and more active. O levels... English ... Music .... and then, syf2007 .... and our state of readiness .... Well yes, I have said I m gona take a back seat for the band .... but looking at the priorities and necessary urgencies, I just can't run away from a sense of duty and purpose to uphold and help the band soar even higher - so having spent many moments thinking through and mapping out the needed route ahead, I just have to really give more than my 2 cents worth and really push and push. I know that our boys are definitely capable, and they just need the proper guidance and motivation to really develop to their full potential. It will also mean to really stretch them to the maximum in terms of studies, CCA passion, and leadership. And truly, I do not wish us to have that regret next year and start wondering about 'what if' or 'if only' .... Do all, can all, see that?

Frankly, life is hard at times, and projects can pile on one.. I can truly understand the reservations or reluctance some might have. But if one really plans way ahead, and manages one's time properly, then it will turn out fine, or even better - for self-motivation and pressure can at times spark greater genius and results. At the end of it all, there is only one truth - that if we believe we can, we definitely will ... if there's a will, there will be a way...

We need to climb the mountains, to climb every mountain, to climb our mountain, till we find our dream. Those who give up will never see the summit, while those who believe and press on will definitely see not just the summit, but all majesty of the surrounding vast vistage.
