Relief


I let a huge “Phew” be released from my throat as I started to take in what just happened. I was so relieved! The search was over. The ongoing tests, telephone calls, emails, inquiries and pitiful faces were all going to be wiped away. I had emerged victoriously! After 11 months, but victoriously! I had managed to find something better, brighter and more promising. As the minutes passed, I contemplated who to call first. Of course, my husband but then who? Who deserves to know first, who will react in the best way, and mostly who do I owe the most. Naturally, my parents were next on the list…

I have about two more weeks of freedom before I return to producing again. I must quickly make a list of all the things I want to do, all the places I want to see, and all the people I need to meet up with. Two weeks in New York is nothing. It flies by so fast but I pledge to make the most of it.

I feel pride and accomplishment. I’m proud to have gotten this far and not have gone mad. I’m happy that I’ve accomplished so much more than I ever expected to. I’ve emerged healthier in mind, body and soul. I’ve invested lots of time and money in fitness and it’s finally starting to pay off. I have a better understanding of who I am and what I want from life. And finally, I have managed to overcome one of the greatest challenges I have faced yet.

I leave you with one word, gratitude. I’m grateful to God to have made this possible, to my husband for his constant support and to my friends and family for their concern and help.

May we all be so lucky!
