It's nice to come home to family after a long day.
Though I might not have the luxury now that I am abroad, but I am closer to my family than I have ever been.
I received a belated birthday card from home today and I was reduced to tears as I tore open the envelope. It was a handmade card wonderfully drawn up by my sister Yan.
Inside it were heart-warming messages from everyone at home wishing me the happiest 21st birthday I could ever wish for. More tears welled up and rolled down my cheeks...and tissue paper was nowhere to be found!
If there's one thing I've learnt after spending 2 years living on my own, is that nothing beats family. All the riches in the world cannot compare to the love and comfort that family bring into one's life.
And for that I am thankful. I truly am.
