growing up

活到老,学到老。this is an old saying which stands firmly true even in modern age.

this, is part of growing up. and no, growing up doesn't end when u realise u no longer look forward to the annual health screening finding out u've added another cm to the records.

at least not yet :)

Love is and always has been a story of 2, no more, no less. sometimes, in order to 拥有 this simple feeling called 幸福、快乐, means having to let go, no matter how painful, aching, heart-breaking it can be.

just like a wisdom tooth. doesnt mean its not decayed, needs no extraction. pain is will be short-lived, the easier, most opted way out by the masses. unless you love constant pain, please love yourself more by future-proofing yourself.

self love..?

pls understand that, in order to love others, you must learn abit on how to love yourself 1st. this is very akin to, before u run, u need to learn the basics of walking 1st.

love does not simply mean, giving in to each other blatantly. actually it is not just that. a certain level of compromise is necessary, but not to the extent of losing yourself in the process.

love is not just about blindly accepting who your partner in life is. he/she should compliment, or the very least do not do damage to your life or your emotional well-being. acceptance without sacrificial actions..

love does not mean only 1 need to be happy. BOTH HAVE TO BE.

but, if sacrificing 1 means 2 can be happy, would you be The One? or try with utmost desperation to squeeze in and be part of the remaining Duo? even if you yourself can be happy, doesn't mean that the other One which make up the Duo, will/can be.

so i guess, perhaps, biting down hard on my very self, thereafter letting go what i have dearly held on in utter belief of a Future, would be the sweetest way out of this sticky mess. not immeditely, but in the long run...perhaps?

they say, knowledge is power. not in every way. sometimes, ignorance is bliss. knowing more than you should puts one in a trauma so bear to bear, sometimes u just feel suicidal.

yet as a Man, percieved to be the stronger species of the Human race, we cannot show tears. we cannot show weakness. we cannot show fragility of emotions.

but this doesnt mean we dont show it, we dont feel it. after all, we are Humans.

Humans, err. this is perfectly normal. if you dont, u might wanna straddle on the title of Sage. its more be-fitting, isn't it?

but behold though, for this is no excuse for anyone to err always. a Man learn through his 1st mistake, a errant/incidental next one warrants a possibility of forgiveness, mayb the next next one too. subsequently, further errors render you unworthy to even don the title of Man.

Scum, perhaps?

have you ever wondered, what would actually happen if you were to be officially void of this world of nonsense? i did. and i realised that when people think about terminating their tenture of life on Earth, they are simply avoiding the actual situation, deluding themselves. irresponsible fools.

the 20-odd years worth of efforts, commitment, feelings and most importantly, responsibility i have quietly shouldered since realization of Life's mantra, i realized, is just nothing they can afford to take over at this very moment. family, friends, loved one and acquaintances alike.

sigh. suddenly realised that we're all so much trapped in this crazy world of nonsense.

1 life. So many ways to live it. Wasted.
the Past. Err-ed, learnt, bit hard and moved on.
a Future. just a Simple, Happy One. possibility so Vague.
