Life in pictures

Sometimes, I look out, outside of my own little world. I look at where my old La Salle batchmates are and what they're doing, career-wise. I feel some disappointment and a lot of envy. I could have done better. I could have gone further. Then, I remind myself that happiness and success are not the same for everyone. I tell myself that we have different missions. My life purpose is unique to me. Perhaps, my work is merely a means to an end, that which leads me to my purpose. I have a calling. I believe I have an idea what my calling is. At the same time, I have made a career for myself. My career, I think, is more in line with my job instead of with my calling. I imagine a day when my calling becomes my career, a new career that is my calling. For now, as long as I find satisfaction in my life and everything in it, and I have bliss and contentment, I am good. I am happy. Forget the smile, can you see it in my eyes? #thesedays #nowadays ...26 years after La Salle, 18 years after UNISA-SBL

#TBT #Throwback to January 2002 (I think) when I completed my postgrad studies at UNISA-SBL. Those #eyebrows! I learned to pluck... or more like I didn't know how to. 😄😂 #management #graduation #SBL #Unisa #businessleadership

#TBT #Throwback all the way back to April #1993 when I completed my undergrad degree. My #eyebrows were awesome. And don't you just love the #hairstyle? #accountant #collegegraduation #collegegrad #lasallian #businessandeconomics

Here right now, was here two years ago, too. This is now...

Here right now, was here two years ago, too. This was then. I was starting to "fill up" but I could still take a photo like this. These days, I can only show off what fills up this old bod. 🤣😬🤪

Cake day is every day, every day is cake day! And I must, therefore, stop weeping, in despair, every morning, when I look at my body. I need to make a choice: cake and other treats on a regular basis OR a better body (and arms and legs) that don't make me cry. It's sad when you lose the fast version of your metabolism.

There is a time for everything. Some nights are for succulent meat. #carnivores #meat #carne #carpetbagger #fillet #steak (for me) #sirloin (for hubby) #porkribs (for kiddie)

For the love of sushi! #sushi #fortheloveofsushi #japanesefood #japanese #yume #montecasino

Sometimes, all you need are lots of sweet treats! #sweettooth #cakes #desserts #treats #sweet #sweetlife

#tbt #throwbackthursday #throwback Coincidentally, on this day, 12 years ago... Good ol' days. I enjoyed work and I felt significant, relevant and useful. Ah, time can be cruel... sometimes. Aging is inevitable, but gaining 10 kilograms and a few more inches could have been prevented. 😝🤪😂 I wish I hadn't been complacent when I was younger and I had fast metabolism. #wheniwasyounger #30s #prime #backthen #wheniwasthin #flyingprivatejet #worktravel

Food, glorious food! And soul food! (I love food, and I like a lot those sculptures.) #Sunday in #MelroseArch #weekend #outandabout #gallivanting #sculptures #outdoorartinstallation #outdoorart

An artist is one who makes art. Follow your heart. #sundayfunday at #MelroseArch #Sunday #fun #art #buddingartist #mylittleartist #painting #artjamming #whattodoinjoburg #funforkids

I don't believe in dressing my age. I don't believe in people's judgement of me when I dress a little young for my age. 😜 #Sunday in #MelroseArch #weekend #gallivanting #outandabout #walkingaround #playingpokemongo 😁
