off hiatus

It's been a long time since I have updated this blog, have taken 1 year off for a world travelling experience, decided to extend it to another year!

so apologises to all my folks, I am travelling the world and being such a terrible glutton

MakanClub goes on Hiatus

Going for a 2 months trip to Central America and California in March - End April 2008.

First visiting California for the largest Organic Expo in the States then backpacking to Guatemala for the Semana Santa Easter festival and following the Mayan Ruins trail to Mexico.

So it's gonna be a little quiet here, I have scheduled some articles posts to keep you company while I'm gone.

The funny thing about having a blog

Besides the fact that I have been a bloody bum and not been writing anything here, doing a little travelling around is no excuse!

I had received a few connections via this blog. A couple of nice folks emailed me with regards on cancer and alternate therapies out there and another dropped me an email about a post on a friend whom had passed away and she was somehow connected to my friend in some way!

More surprisingly, a person I met up recently emailed me recommending a documentary which I had did a mini review on this blog, and had quoted my review back to me in his post!

How strange is that.

In some crazy little way, despite my utter cynic view of this planet, for that very micro second, I felt a little connected with people.

My Friend, Annie

Today, I received an email informing that my good friend Annie had passed away in morning. It's quite a shock for me and with deepest regret that I have not been in touch with her since I moved to Singapore four odd years ago.

She made a huge difference in my life and took me into her home and treated me as family wholeheartedly. She supported me while I was discovering myself and allowed me to be self-centered without putting any demands or expectations through-out that rather difficult time in my life. It was because of her, I gradually awaken to who I was and assisted me in my own awareness.

Annie has been one of the very rare people who loves what she does, inspiring others, supporting others, making huge impact in people's lives for the better, creating a huge difference in mine and other people's lives. She helped created a huge space for us to grow and discover ourselves. When you hear her talk on stage, you can really feel her presence, her intention, her loving kindness. She is truly a very inspirational person that transforms you deeply.

Thank you Annie, for being in my life, for being a huge impact in my life, it has been my blessing to know you. With Greatest Love and Gratitude, you are in my heart!

To Marc and Will, you are in my deepest thoughts
