PISCES - JUST A COINCIDENCE?


yeah...I am a Pisces whether I like or not, whether I believe in the star sign or not...but that is not the issue. Nonetheless, one fact remain and that is, it is forbidden in my religion to be obsessed with the horoscope. So, let us take this matter lightly and nonchalantly.. Whatever details in the star sign is what I call "coincidence" if it is in some way turn out to be true or correct to ones behavior...to those who knows me and observant enough (hehehe) might detect the "similarities" to it.

Herein below is the Pisces Men star sign I copied verbatim from the internet....To those with the same star sign might be interested to compare this too, so go figure...

The biggest coincident for me is the Pisces symbol"H" which is similar to my initial real name

Pisces Men

He is very emotional and always allows himself to be very emotional. He can have good night sleep and be in a good mood, and less than few hours at work he can be very moody. He does not understand things or try to understand things easily. If you notice him carefully, you will notice what kind of moods he is in. He is a thinker and able to do well at work and always succeed.

His normal gestures mean he always looks at other people faults, but he will not talk about it. He has the ability to know your thought and able to tell you what you are thinking about. He can mostly memorize all his anger, his loves. They are his important secrets and he will keep them to himself and will never let you know.

He is not a very ambition man and careless about his position in society. Wealth does not draw his attention, because he is not greedy man and as well he thinks money is not something that will last. He could be very careless about his future. He does not like to fight against all odds, but instead following the stream and make life easier.

Sometimes he likes to take an easy path, which causes him very unsteady future. He is kind and slightly lazy, but it is his cute character. He hates rules and regulations. He will never look down on people. He is a polite guy and can be very aggressive when he is mad.

He loves to think that he lives in a beautiful world and surround by nice people, so if he finds his world is cruel and not what he expects, he will live in his world instead. His other charm is that he is a funny guy, and it is his real weapon. He can tease you and yet make it looks like one of his joke. Even when he is sad, he still has that funny face, so you could hardly tell if he is mad or depress.

He likes to hide his feeling and help other people especially those who need friend or lonely. He will be everything that you want and everything you do not want. He has a chance to make it as much as a chance to fail. He can determine to make it work and can do it well, except he tends to lost his energy with other important things, that’s how he miss many of his good opportunity.

He can be happy and content by himself. What he thinks is important is not “Love”, but firm status and stability. He has plenty of love for you. He is a good speaker, as much as he is a good listener. When he is with you, he wants to be happy. He understands his partner’s emotional. He likes to take a long rest and sometimes being alone.

If he needs to be alone, try not to disturb him. He is a sensitive, quiet, shy and easily hurt. He wants to feel worthy. He can be mad and noisy, but once he calm down, he will be that happy person again. He is not a jealous or possessive guy, and if he feels jealous he will hide it. He has many friends of both sex, and he care about his friends.

He likes to have lots of friends, so you can not get jealous or else you will loose him. He likes beautiful things, so if a pretty woman walks by he will look, so do not get mad at him knowing this fact. When he is lonely or feeling sad, is close to comfort him. He does not like to take advice, so if you want him to listen or to follow your advice; you have to act as a good sample for him first.

He likes a cheery and a smart woman. If you treat him like he is your special person, then he will be that special person for you. He will trust you if he is in love but try not to over doing it and spoil him too much. You have to know yourself worth all the time too.


Such a cute picture..very "fishy" indeed

OLD AGE - ARE YOU WELL PREPARED FOR IT?

How old are you now? 20s?, 30s? 40s?...how good are you financially? are you in good health? have you ever thought of what you will do once you retire? Do you think that you can allocate enough money for your old age? For those who are still young, this question may not be relevant because its too far away to be seen. Furthermore to them, old age is not a personal matter at the moment and will leave it to the government to solve any problem with regards to old age society.

The implication of ageing population is that government's spending on health care and welfare will increase and this will means that the allocation for other sectors which equally important such as education, health care would probably need to be reduced. Studies have shown that the source of population ageing lies in the decline of birth rate as well as increasing life expectancy. Family planning, man and women not marrying are all factors that contribute to declining fertility rate while improve longevity is caused by advances in nutrition, medical and health.

According to United Nations, Malaysia will experience ageing population in the year 2019. Therefore, it means that we have approximately 20 more years to prepare and address this phenomenon after which time the rate or our ageing population will increase dramatically.

When we are old, just like the young, we need roof over our heads as well as food and clothing. If we are unlucky, we will require proper care and assistance from others due to our physical limitation or illness.

As preparation for our retirement, we need to be able to save or invest for our old age and because of that it is crucial that we need a vibrant economy in long term. Continuous economic development will increase our earning. The younger we can save and invest the more return we will able to secure for our more comfortable living in the old age. Nowadays and more true in the future, even if we are a parent, help is hard to come by as our young who want to take care of us need to go out and work to earn a living. Being a parent or not, we need to pent for ourselves rather to hope for others including the government when the time comes for us to shelter ourselves.

Que sera sera..the future may not be ours to see but don't let us be the one who push the trolley in the alley.......ermm it rhymes

Can we guarantee that we can live comfortably in the future?

Can we guarantee that we can be healthier in our mind, body and soul at this age?

WHAT IN A NAME- A MALAY MOVIE DILEMMA

I have been thinking about this matter quite sometime now...it intrigue me. First, I would like to ask you if you have the same opinion as I am... do you think its important to have a good or suitable name for a movie? or do you think the name of a movie can influence or entice you to watch a movie? I don't want to compare our much beloved malaysian movie titles to our hollywood gungho friends but lets be practical by comparing it to our neighbour, the indonesian movie makers being both using the same language literally with the same culture and all...yeah the same "rumpun bangsa thang". But one thing I am sure of for a fact is that our brother there can make better films than us but that is not what I intend talk about now.

Firstly, I would like to ask our film makers....how do they come out with a movie title? Is it based on their thorough research of what our society wants or just an idea come into their head after a long night sleep? or "syok sendiri" as we always put it. Are they not imaginative enough to think of a better name for their movies?. Have they not found the true meaning of the word "catchy" ...the fundamental word for any editor to put as a headline i.e as an attraction, a strategy to sell his dailies or magazine?...(side line story... I have a bitter encounter with an interviewer for a mass communication course in ITM (UiTM now) in 1985. I could not answer the words that he wanted to hear and the words were 'sensational' and 'catchy', the sacred words in mass-comm worlddom..understandably and due to my arguing method so they said, I was not accepted for the course but ITM offered me another course, somewhat a rival school to mass com at that time...ops terlebih iklan sudah...)

Back to our topic, herein I gave you the evidence to support my theory as to why Malaysian people are NOT attracted to watch our own movies in which the film maker blamed Malaysian people for not patriotic enough in supporting the film industry...

Lets us comment on a few recent and old movie titles:-

Sifu dan Tongga - what the hell is that?
Cuci - wow I can't wait to see someone washing something?
Anak Halal - If you changed it to Anak Haram might stir something, at least
Sembilu - to symbolize what? pain? coming for a flower or fauna or whatever?
Pensil - OMG...the sequel will be called Pen Mata Bola?
Wayang - yeah its in a cinema rite? wrong?
Anak Mami/Nana Tanjung - might get the wrong impression even....
Mama Oh Mama - so plastic
Oh Ibuku - double wammy
Ladyboss - who want to see this?
Sara- ouch....
Gila Gila Remaja - yeah can turn crazy if not watching it?
Sumo-lah - wow I miss all good things in Japan if i do not watch this movie..
Baik Punya Cilok - baik jangan tengok?
Cicak Man 1 & 2 - funny or shall I say not funny or is it an action drama?

I can list more and more titles but I can't remember thing that may insult my brain. But I do commended movie makers who did have catchy titles in which enticed me to watch such as:-

Sepet
Jangan Pandang Belakang
Sepi
Ali Setan
Cinta
Hati Bukan Kristal
Mukhsin
Perempuan Melayu Terakhir
Puteri Gunung Ledang
Bujang Lapuk
Sumpah Orang Minyak
Madu Tiga


I must insert an exemption clause here. It is not that I am a Indonesian fanatic movie goer, far from that but there are certain movies such as Ayat-ayat Cinta whom I regard the best Indonesian movie so far (not because I unashamedly cried a few times but overall its one of a kind movie that can make you remember and think about it for quite sometime...awesome). Lets us compare their names for comparison sake:

Dealova
Cinta Dalam Sepotong Roti
Berbagi Suami
Di Balik Kelambu
Pasir Berbisik
Ayat-ayat Cinta
Nila Di Gaun Putih - how symbolic
Eiffle I Fall In Love
Ranjang Pengantin
Bangkitnya Pocong
Ada Apa Dengan Cinta
Biola Tak Berdawai
Tiga Hari Untuk Selamanya
Jelangkung
Mak Lampir
Sumpah Ratu Nyi Loro Kidul
Wali Songo
Janji Joni
Arisan
Suster Ngesot
Mundur Kena Maju Kena
Si Buta Dari Gua Hantu
Perempuan Berkalong Serban (to be released)


An anticipated movie

The best Indonesian movie so far for me

Cute name.


Errrr....Nice outfit..kot, what else??

Well..this is my personal opinion based on my observation only...other people might think otherwise... I only hope our movie will someday be if not as good but at least at par with other movies in our neighboring countries such as Indonesian, Thailand and the Philippines.... my wishful thinking ...

Happy weekend guys...

A BUSY WEEKEND 8 AND 9 FEBRUARY 2009

Date : 8 February 2009 (Sunday)

Attended ZainJB's birthday party at his house in bandar Hussein Onn. A few old friends were there too, especially from Penang. Thanks for inviting us and wish the birthday boy again happy birthday....

Yup...the cake was delicious.............yum yum...

Paparazzi at work huhuhu...

After that, A and I rushed to Prince Hotel to attend a business invitation by Jardin Smith International...i found it totally engrossing to find out about their business proposal especially on the 300% non guaranteed return on the investment weiuuuuuu....what kind of investment you might ask?...buying land in England....yeah don't be surprised lots of our Malaysian taikos had no qualms nor hesitation to buy property there....yup..the opportunity is bizzare but its true ..if only we have that amount of money as suggested to invest...sighhhh.... Even though we did not participate in their business proposal, they gave us a good and honest hindsight of their future investment and the best part, they gave us one small gold coin (from TOMEI) and a few other goodies to commensurate for our time there....

From Prince Hotel, we went to Ampang to attend a chap go meh dinner invitation by BB group at Ampang Yong Tou Foo, near Ampang Puteri Medical Centre.... There were about 20 old and new friends who attended the dinner. Afterwards, we went to Hajris at Bandar Tasik Permaisuri to hang out for a while. A was not feeling well, so we had to decline BB invitation from attending the orange throwing activity at the nearby lake. Thanks to BB group for inviting us.....


mouth watering food at Ampang Yong Tao Fu

Date : 10 February 2009 (Monday- Public Holiday - Thaipusam)

Outing with my mother, my sister and her family together with my brother with his family. We went to one eating place in Shah Alam called Sate Ria.

Sate Ria near Plaza Masalam

Sate Ria is not a new establishment. Before this, if you can remember there was one at Subang Parade but it was closed in late 80s or early 90s. One of my relatives revives the company and used its original name and now in the process of approving franchise deals with few other interested parties including one in Saudi Arabia. To be frank, the food especially the sate is ok by me, nothing so much a specialty in which people might throng in to try...but its not bad either...worth sampling for a change of venue and taste...


the spacious area..not many people coz we arrived there at 3.00 pm


my drinks alone...thirsty meh..


What A ate, mee rebus special


what I ate, soto ayam

As usual, thanks to my mum for belanja us all makan again , told you my mum is rich because of the increment in her monthly pension as compared to her poor son. Lots of love mum hehe....

3 LETTERS AND A LYRIC - 1999 LOVE STORY

Another post coming from my old closet of the past.....3 letters plus one lyric from a song..... all of it were from my ex-lover of 5 years (yeah the one that I posted in my blog earlier..) It was in 1999..yeah the year where game boy was first introduced in Europe and Play Station was still in its prototype stages I guess hehe... yup 1999...where were you at that year??? That year was the year when boy bands rules....and in that year I started my relationship with this person. Well, its all in the past now and I am pretty sure this person might not even remember these materials still exist or worst still not even remember writing it...

I have no other motive to reproduce it but to remind myself that love can come and go but the memories still lingers on...that people can changed and love can deteriorates...only the strong and the lucky ones will be in love forever.... alas that statement in itself can raise eyebrow's and can be debated on various angles and perception.....

Been there done that...and been there again and again...am I a good lover...am I a better lover now or worse...or at least am I a better person and being contented with my life now? ermm...

So here goes........


_______________________________________________________


To my dearest love................H
From the moment we first met until now
I fell in love with you and it grew
Day to day all the squabble between us

my love keeps on growing stronger
Thought under certain circumstances it's painful inside
........
but Sayang....hatred will only ravage things

I accept you as you are though there are things
where we have our disagreement.......it's just a matter of tolerance

In spite of our indifference's or may it be our wicked bearings

I endure it as our debility as normal as human beings

Sayang.......

I crave to be vigorous as you wish
I endeavour to reach for our captivating peacefulness
Garnished with our tender loving care

Adorned with smiles and kisses and tender touches
...
...and the glint in both our eyes that reveals the love we have for each other
Sayang...

No promise, no guarantee....my love for you will always gleam

You are the love of my life.....I plea to you

...for I am the real Silly By-stander....longing for the devotion of your love.

Forgive me please.....enlighten me to be strong harmoniously
....
...for your love is the greatest gift of all
I LOVE YOU
...
the nonsensical bystander...
....
who love you so much

signature R.A.A

9 July 1999


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


To "H" my beau........


I will promise you
Yes I promise to love you for all your life
Love you every day and night

I will always be there for you

I'll be in your arms.....I'll be in your heart

I'll love you forever
I promise you
We'll be together, our whole life through

There's nothin' that I wouldn't do
With all of my heart........I promise you

I will take your hand and I'll understand
Share all your hopes and dreams

Show you what love can mean

Whenever life just gets too much for you
I'll be on your side to dry the tears you cry


I will always be in your arms
And you will always be the flame within your heart


There's nothing' in this world I wouldn't do
I promise you

Sayang..... I'm always here and there for you
whenever you need me.....coz I love you so much

There's nothin' in this world I wouldn't do

unless to be estranged from you.


With love

The Bystander

23 July 1999

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When two people love each other as much as we do,

no distance is great enough to come between them.
Still I miss you so much when we're apart.
I think of you off and on during the day,

from the time I get up until I fall asleep.

I wonder how are and wish you could be with me.

I find myself smiling each time I remember

special moments we've shared,

thoughtful ways you've shown you care,

and how much fun I have just being with you.


When we're apart, I remember everything

that made me fall in love with you in the first place

and I can't hardly wait till we're together again.

I look forward to your smile, your kiss, your touch,

to being back in the arms of the one person
I love more than anything in the world.

Sayang...........I love you.


5 August 1999


Specially for you my love....Hard....from me....the Silly By Stander

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Sayang....lagu ini untukmu



Haruskah ku ulangi lagi

Kata cintaku padamu
Yakinkan hatimu

Masihkah terlintas di dada
Keraguanmu itu
Susahkan hatimu

Tak akan ada cinta yang lain

Pastikan cintaku hanya untukmu

Pernahkan terbersit olehmu

Akupun takut kehilanganmu....dirimu....

Ingatkah satu bait kenangan
Cerita cinta kinta

Aku cinta padamu


Akankah nanti terulang lagi

Jalinan cinta semu

Dengarlah bisikku

Bukalah mata hatimu


Sayang........dirimu sentiasa di hatiku

setiap waktu


signature R.A.A

Ikhlas dariku

6 August 1999

Alas... I leave you with 2 good self explanatory words by one Stephen Covey and by Marcus Aurelius for you to ponder....

"People will forgive mistakes, because mistakes are usually of the mind, mistakes of judgment. But people will not easily forgive the mistakes of the heart, the ill intention, the bad motives, the prideful justifying cover up of the first mistake." - Stephen Covey

"It is a shameful thing for the soul to faint whiles the body still perseveres" - Marcus Aurelius

Have a productive week ahead....take care..........

HERE IN MY HOME - MALAYSIAN ARTISTES FOR UNITY (MAFU)

I saw the video clip of the above song today in Astro but I can't remember which channel. I browsed the net and found out the website. The best part is that this song were sung by so many Malaysian artistes including Awie, Jaclyn Victor, Jason Lo, Ning Baizura, Afdlin Shauki, Attilia, Reshmonu, Pete Teo,Suki, Nikki, Daniel Lee to name a few with so many other appearances such as Yasmin Ahmad, Ida Nerina Harith Iskandar, Amber Chia, Tony Fernandas and many more. Go and watch here



Words & Music: Pete Teo
Artist: Malaysian Artistes
Song: HERE IN MY HOME

Hold on brother hold on
The road is long. We’re on stony ground
But I’m strong. You ain’t heavy

Oh there’s a misspoken truth that lies
Colors don’t bind, oh no.
What do they know? They speak falsely.

Chorus:
Here in my home
I’ll tell you what its all about
There’s just one hope here in my heart
One Love undivided
That’s what it’s all about
Please won’t you fall in one by one by one [with me]?

Push back sister won’t you push back?
Love won’t wait. Just keep pushing on.
Yes I’m strong. You ain’t heavy.

Oh don’t you worry about that…
What we have the shadows can’t deny
Don’t you know it’s now or never?

Rap:

[Bahasa Malaysia]
Bertubi asakan berkurun lamanya
Hati ke depan mencari yang sayang
[Years of fears and years of tribulation
The heart keeps searching for that endless devotion]

[Mandarin]
shou qian shou da jia yi qi zou,
wo dai biao guo ren kai kou wei lai jiu mei you, you chou
[Hand in hand we'll march like blood brothers
I speak for my people, hope we'll find peace forever]

[Tamil]
inthe payanam payanamm yen vettri thaagam
anthee kaana kaalam naam vetri raagam...nanba nanba
[May the road ahead quench my thirst for success
May the road behind echo a song of the blessed]

[English]

So I will let it be known yes I feel it in my bones
No matter where I roam this is home sweet home



Sing!

A Week Activities...

Nothing much to say..so here's my activities from last week...

30th January - Friday

After office, came back home and then with A went to Berjaya Times Square... intended to watch Red Cliff part 2 but the available show was only for midnight. Bought tickets to watch War Brides for 9.30pm AND Red Cliff for 12.30 am show... yup a marathon.. Then went to Papa John for dinner... quite surprised that the food prices are very affordable and the food marvelous..we ate the usual pizza and spaghetti, soup and bread. What I like about Papa John is that they will print the bill before sending the food so that we know beforehand how much the actual cost will be unlike other diners who make us skip a heartbeat when the bill arrives hehe....

Still to early for the movie, we then went to Ampang Bowls and bowled 2 games each..yup despite the doctor precaution not to do so ermmm...sorry I can's stand the temptation...
War Brides was just ok with me....a very light and predictable movie..well, I have always love Kate Hudson (as well as her mother, Goldie Hawn) before this anyway..... afterwards, while waiting for the next movie, we hang out near the 7-Eleven, sipped a cup of coffee and when the time came, went again to the next cinema. Red Cliff part 1 was an awesome movie and I anticipated part 2 will be too and yes I am so not disappointed...another one of John Woo's gem... highly recommended....reached home 3.30 am..so pei wai lor...

31 January 2009 - Saturday

10.30 am, went to Taman Melawati to picked up my sis with my brother-in-law and headed to my hometown - Muar. Reached my kampung. Later, together with my mum, we went to Muar town... where?... to our favourite restaurant at Tanjung Agas to eat non other than the delicious nowhereelseucanfind Mee Bandung Muar (my mum's treat) hehe.. Later, we also bought the infamous Murtabak Singapore (RM10.00 per piece) at a nearby restaurant...
5.00 pm ....together with my mum we headed back to KL. Arrived at my house near 7.00 pm. Rest...A was too busy cleaning our cat's room (10 of them) and unable to join us for dinner... I brought my mum, my sister and my brother-in-law to Al-Diafah.. an nice arab restaurant near my house..

Some vege with bread too..

My sis ate mendy rice with mendy chicken while my brother-in-law ate mendy rice with roasted chicken.... After that sumptuous meal, we went to Al-Diafah shop downstairs... my mum bought an olive oil soap, my sis and I bought a royal honey dates in a bottle. Afterwards, picked A and then went back to Taman Melawati... By 12.30 am, A and I went to Setiawangsa to buy few DVDs. I picked Gossip Girl season 1 & 2 box set, Cashmere Mafia, complete season box set and few other single DVDs. Reached home 2.30 am.

1 February 2009 - Sunday

Lunch with A before he went to class....Afternoon called Is and decided to have our dinner at Hokaido's. The three of us ordered some crabs, butter prawns, "pepahat/ambal", sizzling taufo, baby beans, fried eggs and some pau. The foods??? Yummy yum yum hehe... After that, we went strolling at the nearby pasar malam....Is took leave...A and I went to a foot massage stall near by... A had his foot and head plus shoulder massage and I, out of curiosity did a "bekam" (yup sucking out the so called bad or dirty blood using the suction cups) at my back and legs...Little that I know the whole process will cost me RM420.00. Darn...my mistake for not asking and damn that guy for not telling....by the time I was finished it was already 1.30 am...With not much cash in hand, I had to search for a 24 hours ATM to withdraw that much.... Aiyoos...this must really put a dent to my future expenses.....ermm "dent" is a modest word....KOYAK will be the better word...as A's puts it nicely "an unnecessary and unexpected expanses"... gone were the questions 'do I need it or do I want it'? ..... to say that this is the real "hisap darah" kinda of thang is very true explicitly. No ambiguity there mind you.... nonetheless, being positive I hope its well worth it and thank God I was told that you only need to do this practice once a year....hahaha

2 February 2009 - Tuesday.

Nothing much - work as usual. After office went to Endah Parade with A, took our dinner at Kopitiam Station House there and afterwards we went for our karaoke session at 5th floor. A had made an earlier phone booking and Tuesday is men's nite meaning that for 3 hours you only need to pay RM8.00 per person inclusive of one non-alcohol drink. This is almost a weekly activity for us....and mind you we still can't sing that well to date hahaha...


The rest of the days were almost routine stuff - nothing special not worth posting.... until my next post, have a happy and productive weekends....take care...

2004 NOTE OF LIFE

Another items from my old closet.... a poem I wrote after my failed relationship with someone after 5 years ....coincidentally the date of the poem was dated 6 June 2004, a year before my earlier post....meaning when I posted my last post I was with someone else, hehehe....

2004 Note Of Life

This year the romance ended, the one heart separated
This year I embraced the pain with such stark reality
This year I never imagined that tears will be mine

Sleeping alone and waking up alone
The coldness of the morning on my own
No more warm heart to cling
No more little little things
Only we know how to do

The presence unwelcome
The void unbearable
The conflict unmistaken
The anger unleash, the fear unfolded
Where is the love?
Entombed in the cold cold heart
Frozen in scenes of tragedy

Unashamed to all
I have shared it all
Taste the sweetness
Bite the bitterness
Love in its many facades
Selfish never to disregard

But i bow to fate
When eager to separate
The wind of change blows great
Fear it be good or bad

Life is a new journey
Every phase and every ways
The closing chapter comes again

A new book will soon begin

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS PERFECT COUPLE
ONLY PERFECT ADJUSTMENT

Is it?

I guess people can be creative when they were in a situation be it good or bad....expression of thoughts runs freely and you got to express it out loud......can a mundane situation sparks a creative ideas? you yourself will be the judge of that...

that old topic called LOVE again...

As I mentioned earlier, I will also write on the events that happened to me in the past. So allow me to copy an email I wrote to my close friend dated June 6, 2005. On that day, we argued about non other than the four letter word... LOVE, how we perceived love, the person we want to be with, our preferences and standards, the purpose of being in love and the list goes on and on. So with my friend's permission, my copy of the email, verbatim....its a bit long but here goes...


06/06/05 04.00 PM

Hemm


What I might say might be hard to swallow yet I am saying it from my own experiences of how I feel.... being an individual or a person, its normal for someone to have a need for another... Its natural to want to be loved and be in love...irregardless of how high or low the standard of that person that you want to be with...its normal to have a need for someone.....I have been there...being in love, being hurt by love and being in love again and again .... the feeling is exuberant, extraordinary because your head maybe so wise to reject a speeding train coming at you but the heart might tell you, why don't you feel it first than you know how much it hurts...a stupid analogy by your standard I might say..... the feeling of being with someone far exceed the feeling of being alone at home or anywhere else... The conflict is always there because being individual we can never be satisfied with someone else in total, let alone sometimes even oneself. Now and then, the world is sometimes being split in two and there goes the so call conflict....but there is always the magical word of EXCEPTION... the holy word of FORGIVENESS and the soul rendering word of AMEND and so call conflict will only become history of the past... and the process go on and on and on...because life is just that....a process.

Having all sort of feelings I must say is living a life...you cry, you smile, you laugh, you have intimate longing, you feel the hurt of jealously, the pain of being lost...and yet when I hold the person I love in my arms, I feel the bliss inside in which I cannot describe and with that every hurt, every pain before me melt in those magical moments...that feeling is LOVE... that feeling is what I meant when I say 'I don't like to be alone'... having someone to hold....looking into the person's eyes with the feeling that someone else in this whole wide world loves you...be it 18, be it 80... as long as you have that kind of feeling, u are alive... what is standard if you don't have that kind of feeling...funny but its true.

When I was a child I loved cats... I can stroke a cat for hours just to see its reaction, the purring, the half lid eyes and the pure feeling of someone loves and care for you....so when I started having feelings of my own just like that.... I have the same sensational feeling of being with someone....the joy of it...and I can't LIVE without it.....

Surely, when the world that you dream of with the one you love cave in, that bleak feeling was so horrible that you might decide to never be in love again....but the urge to be with someone far outweigh it...you grow to be more responsible and you learn to understand how others might feel, learn to compromise, learn to let go and calm or pacify yourself....learn how to show your intimate feelings to others....no theories....just living facts of life........

I have read a book.... I can't remember the name but its something to do with madison county (there was a film based on this book too)... a true story of a National Geographic cameraman who fall in love with a married woman in that county. They met for only a week...while the husband and her children went away for a school trip. The feeling of being in love were so great so intense.... it lasted the whole of their life time even though they never met again after that. The love story where discovered after she died...she left a letter to her children detailing their affairs...while the man love of the woman was told by a black singer who knew him... he was not married after meeting the woman of his life. If you review it without touching your heart, that this might sound way out of your league...nonsensical...illogical....but I cried... I know the odd feeling of it and again its so hard to resist........

So...to me... we can set standards...we can outline expectation...all that is our own destiny... maybe you will stick to it until the "right" time comes but as I get older....my priority changes... I have sky on my head and the earth on my feet...and out of it all I realised...it is not hard to satisfy others but is the hardest to control your own feeling and needs....that is still a process I am learning and controlling... I can advise thousands on how to handle jealously, but when it comes straight at you... the feeling is so strong I hope to have much better control in the future... if there is not even an ounce of jealously in your heart for your love ones or even your own friends (in a healthy circumstances, that is) than that person should rather be your enemy...hehehe

arghhhhhhhh..sharing you how I feel my dearest friend. Love is not a 'purpose' nor filling in the blank for me....its something I cannot live without.........

and yes....once I really do believe in you but you don't trust the uncertainty...aye......


..........yup that was nearly 4 years ago....and how do I perceived it...still the same but with more clear thing of what I want in this life...........the life is still in its rollercoaster ride....but I am happy for I can still smile in the morning even though its raining heavily...

Its just life after all............
