I’m Still Alive, 7 Years Here

Ladies and gentlemen, I’m still very much alive. You might not have seen much of me here but I’m still carrying on with my life. It’s already 7 years at this blog. *Happy birthday, leongmy.com*😘💋❤️ Let’s do a little jiggle, a little dance. 💃🏻

 

I feel complete. I’m now a whole being, who can complete myself. I vow not to ever half myself, never to give away what was mine 100% in the first place. Sharing is not caring if I need to keep it in the first place. I have seen it a lot of times in the past, when I have shared and given to some people, they will not reciprocate and will not give back the same. Most of the time I can do something by myself but I don’t know why I always liked to include someone else unnecessarily in the past. To me, it was the joy of including others but some people might have seen it as I needed their help or I couldn’t survive without them. Oh, please, no. No one above, no one below, no one outside matters; it has always been inside me. If I have the capability to heal myself when all doctors and medicine failed, do you think I would need to rely on anyone, really? In fact, they end up to be a burden and they were taking away my limelight. You’re only in my life if I want to keep you there. No, I will not ever cut myself short or accept anything less that I should get,  please take note everyone. I keep it simple now, I just do what I can on my own and take care of my wellbeing. Dear universe, there’s no need to keep repeating the same scenarios of the past and no need for the same few people in the past that I’ve left behind long time ago, for I have broken out of that cycle and I will not do the same as I did and will not be the same as I was last time. Thank you. My years of self healing has paid off. Now before you even get all red eyed jealous and all,🧿 let me remind you to read with a pure heart and to go work on yourself instead of penting up your energy to go think of undesirable thoughts, doing unloving actions against someone else.🪬

 

I’m happily doing what I love to do : dance. My true love, always has been and never has left me even when in despair. I dance, I perform, I can choreograph and I have taught dancing. I took a look through all my blog posts and funny that I didn’t show that much of me dancing. I know why, because I was in the process of healing and my chronic illness with open wounds previously didn’t let me have the mobility to physically dance. I’m ever so grateful for my healing and my awakening. Let me show you what I can do. You don’t see, you won’t know, isn’t it ? People who have experienced my dancing and have seen it in the past will know but they’re a small fraction as compared to the total population of human beings in this world and they’re in the past. I’ll walk down the memory lane once in a while to remember myself, what I can do and sometimes it’s to gather proof of my achievements but it doesn’t mean I live in the past. I don’t. I kept progressing and achieve more than in the past, in different matters. It can be done in silence, not necessary to blare everything out to the open. Some things I’ll tell because if not, how will someone know that I can provide certain business services. You don’t see me much in person or online, you think I’m stuck. Go ahead, think what you want. However, don’t interfere in my life, thinking I have no direction or I’m clueless about what to do and that you’re needed to help me by choosing my life path for me. No, don’t. If I want your help, I’ll ask and then please, do your best to provide. I know my own path. I have always known since young. I just went astray because I let people dictate my life choices and sometimes I let them but like I emphasized so many times here, I won’t do it anymore. I like to choose my own things. I like to create and I’m creative, so it is from my thinking and my choice that the creation comes about. Hence, my preference is naturally to make my own choices. There are people in the world who prefers to have other people making choices for them. That is them. I am me. You’re not me, I’m not you. I don’t aspire to be anyone else except for myself. I have returned to my own soul. That’s why I’m complete. My true self. So let’s be in the present moment.

 

In 2019, I embarked on my journey to be in my first ever dance video. I had chronic open wounds all over and especially on my feet. That’s why in the video, you’ll see only half body captured. It was the month of International Dance Day in April 2019. It was in the spur of the moment, that I felt a motivational push from an unseen force to just do it. Regardless of the pain on my body, I just gather my props, dressed up, styled my hair, took my tripod, mounted the gadget and shot the video. After that edited the video, put in the music that I created and created a blog post for it along with a social media post for my business.

@myleong #internationaldanceday is on 29 April every year. This was taken back in 2019 and it’s a short excerpt from a video I did. I was ill that time but I didn’t stop #dancing because #dance and #choreography is what I ❤️ to do. With the universe’s blessings, I’m better now and I vow to continue to dance. #keepdancing #happyinternationaldanceday ♬ original sound – leongmy.com


Yes, I am certified in music and I can create my own music too though this is not my favourite talent. I will not longer despise the times I was forced to practice the piano and felt like I want to push it down the stairs, but instead I will see it differently now – that it was a part of what I needed to learn to enable me to do what I do now, contributing to a small part of my dance or video creation. I’m actually an all-rounder performer since young where I emcee, I dance, I won choir competitions, I have certificate in music, I have won beauty pageants, I have acted in musical theatre, I was active in sports and now I can even create plus edit videos. I’m very creative, if you can’t already tell. The stage was my world when I was younger but I went into different life paths as I grew up, so there are many other skills I acquired after that such as law, business, lecturing, fashion creation and many more, but that’s the story for another day if not you’ll start to wonder if I’m even human and how can I be able to acquire all these skills in one lifetime. Let’s just say I grow my inner self and that’s why if I want to do something on my own, I actually can. To those who were ever brought in to be involved in my projects or I wanted to be involved in yours in the past, be grateful because it was a privilege, not you doing me a favor. I can always spend my time happily on my own, for my time is my luxury to be spent for myself. I’m now not so willing to extend the privilege to anyone else after what I’ve been through. Anyhow, dance will always be my true love, the one that is able to put me in the zone.

 

In March 2024, I’ve healed enough to be able to wear shoes without socks for protection, and I proudly created another dance video with my own choreography and me dancing in it. This time, I dance in honour of Kuan Yin, the Goddess of Mercy’s birthday. My beloved Kuan Yin ma, thank you.

Life is impermanent and we won’t know when our time is up on earth. So I’m going to do what I love to do. I vow that I’ll dance again. I am keeping that promise and I have kept that promise. Done. I shall do what I can while I still have this body on earth and when the time is up, at least I know I have gained a lot of knowledge. We never stop learning in life. Even a master of a field will need to learn new skills to keep up with the changes in the world, if not he will be left behind. We cannot bring material possessions, cash and we cannot bring our body with us when we die. We can enjoy them while we’re in this world and sometimes people will try to take them away from you, beware. When it’s time to go, I shall bring all these knowledge I have gained with me. Knowledge that no one can take away from me and it is mine forever. If you want to gain knowledge yourself and learn to dance, contact me to know more about what dance I can teach and choreograph, along with my fees. I can also perform dancing, which I currently prefer to dance solo. Peace and love.
