Life's NO Secret #11 | Friends bring us together

It’s all about SOMETHING

Something’s in life we just take it for granted
Something’s we've never appreciate until it’s taken away from us
Something’s we see every day and everywhere
Something’s which is just within our reach
Something’s so tangible and yet fragile
Something’s so precious only with the eyes of a few
Something’s .. It’s always a Something !

For today, I’ll like to share my Something !

And it’s about FRIENDS

Friends whom sometimes we take it for granted
Friends whom we never appreciate until they’re gone forever
Friends whom we see every day and everywhere
Friends whom are just within our reach either by FB, Insta, Call or perhaps just next door
Friends whose devotion is so tangible and yet fragile
Friends whom are so precious if you only have a few

For me this is so true since I’ve been in a foreign country for the last four months, friends mean so much to me aside from my family. It’s always work friends round the clock that finding true genuine friends is really hard. But this has changed for me in the last three weeks. Thanks to an unplanned official networking session, I had the chance to meet fellow Malaysians who have been residing here in Vietnam. And these are people like me who come here to work in large multi national companies (MNC) or being an entrepreneur of their own. Through them, I was acquainted with the BOD of the Malaysian Business Chamber Vietnam in HCMC.

And through MBCV, I met Dr Saras who is the Honorary Secretary and with the biggest heart ever. She’s like the Ambassador of Malaysia herself, bringing me around to meet other fellow Malaysians and also other Chamber of Commerce such as Thai Business Chamber Association, AMCHAM & British Business Council Association. I cannot fathom the amount of appreciation I have for her and her husband who is also a well respected individual in the community and holding high position in an organization from Singapore.

Friends now that I found in this new place
Friends whom I learn to trust and trust back
Friends whom see me as an individual surviving in a foreign land
Friends who lend me a helping hand without asking anything in return
Friends whom I can enjoy simple company with
Friends who speak MANGLISH just as I do

And to my new found friends, thank you so very much !

Life's NO Secret is all about sharing; and it can be anything at all. Be it related to health, wealth, lifestyle or education. Sometimes, secrets are not really secrets. It's just that people don't talk about it or it's just been put aside until it becomes a topic to B****** about it. It could be anything under the sun; good, silly, fun, stupid or bad to some extend.

Life's NO Secret is an inspiration of my own in which I hope to share with all of you. NO Secrets means NO Lies. Just plain simple facts.
