DESIDERATA

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.

As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others even the dull and ignorant; they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexatious to the spirit.

If you compare yourself with others you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your career, however humble; it is a real possesion in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your bussiness affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideas; and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennialas the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrounding the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the tress and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.

And whatever you labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.

Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Fairy Tales

To feel or not to feel, to love or not to love... i think its all a choice...


Since we were a child, we hv been fed with fairy tales of love and relationships. The prince n the damsel in distress. Then as we grow, we r fed with romantic comedies, drama series, heart breaking novels, etc. And so we grow up with an idea of true love and a perfect relationship.


But the world don't work that way, the universe is magical; yes! but behind the magic is a simple science. For most things, since olden age, our ancestors believe that thoughts can materialize. Thus, the saying careful what u wish for. And now the Neo-physics, the study of neotic science is close to proving that our thoughts sends energy and in fact could materialize.


But we are talking about love... in the case of love, y and how do people fall in love?

The basic science is simple; we look for what we like, what we imagine we want, we look for comfort, we look for a connection. In most cases, when we meet sm1 n hv the same interests, its easy to claim we hv fallen in love because its comfortable... its easy.. doing the same thing and enjoying it together.


Then when we meet sm1 with a striking beauty... a feature that perhaps in our childhood we hv once admired... in an instant we would chase tht figure.


In some cases, scientists made a discovery that while choosing a partner, primals look for the features or their descends. For example, a male would be more attracted to a girl with curly hair than the one with straight hair (even if she is prettier) when he has an image of his kid having curly hair. And so on..


After the first phase of the chase n excitement of meeting sm1 tht fulfills the criteria tht we have, which we call as infatuation phase, we then have the trial of living. And when this certain sm1 has the characteristics tht fits in our daily life style and we grow accustom to them... we decided, we r definitely in love and we cnt live without them.


And then comes the bond and commitment. Humans are, in general, fearful being. We are afraid to get too attached because we are afraid of losing. So to ensure that we dun lose this person tht fits in our lives so well, to ensure our territory, we tie the knot. Although marriage never gives a 100% percent guarantee of togetherness till death parts them, but the illusion that it might is enough for us to live with our partners.


So back to true love... is when u meet n be with the person u imagined u wanna be with n tht person feels the same... and perfect relationship is where these 2 fills in the blanks of each other's life..

so there... the simple science of love :)

WEAKNESS

Is accepting destiny is a sign of weakness? Or rather a sign of maturity?

I believe in destiny, but sometimes i just enjoy fighting it… Acceptance just make me feel weak.

If destiny counts for everything, then what are we to do?

For a loooonnnggg time, i’ve always hated the phrase "everything that has to happen, has to happen"… it just kinda say that we have no power whatsoever to lead our lives… then y r even here?

As foolish as i was, i dispise believer of God and follower of faith…i thought 2 surrender and see wat happens is just a sign of weakness… to fight for what i want despite of everything else that said no, was a sign that i’m a living fish in this vast sea of life.

Sure, i enjoyed my swim fighting the tides… sure it was a pride to be able to say i’m nt weak… i’m a rebel!!! but it gets tiring…and wen the results meet not the expectation, i fall and cry like a baby…

I learnt though as time passes, acceptance of destiny is nt a sign of weakness, rather, it is a sign of strength… It takes alot of guts and courage to let got the driving wheel of your life…to accept and understand that we owe this life to the universe, to accept that we are nothing than puppets…

It takes more courage to believe and to have faith that to fight…

Don’t be affraid to let go… don’t think believing is being coward

We do however make our own choices, but i believe destiny and universe working hand in hand are preparing us for something big, something our soul rejoice for…

I don’t believe in a single powerful being called GOD… I think its just a word human created to describe something that are bigger than them, something the are affraid of….

What i believe in is the power of the universe… and wen we make the universe happy, it gives us wat we need, wat we ask for…i believe that the universe takes care of us

"When u want something, the whole universe conspires to help you realize your desire" (The Alchemist)… and its true…

So just chill, lay back and enjoy the ride…experience it and u will agree that your wishes are always answered….

There are consquences of course… but that’s a whole other chapter……. :P

Memories

I have trouble sleeping lately, clinically i would say that it is due to lack of activities, lack of the use of brain functions. Yes, perhaps doing nothing bothers me as much as too much to do. My mind is blank, my heart is calm and that makes it harder to get me to sleep. It was as though everything was completed n now at the bridge, i dunno where to go. I felt like being in an equilibrium.

I remembered feeling similar a couple years ago. Where i could detach feelings and emotions from everyday life, where i felt i was at an equilibrium and no desires left to achieve. MAN!!! It's boring!! partying without hard work to proceed it is just not fun... all the high feeling i love being in is stale.

I need to travel, to get out of this place, to meet new ppl, to have new adventures, but there is something stopping me from taking that step and i dunno y.

At 1 am in my bed covered with blanket, trying to talk/chat with people who r still awake, i realized nothing and no1 can ease me from this feeling of calmness,.. I realized the only person i wanna talk about this to is tht one person that showed me the colors of life, even the dark ones... The urges to pick up the phone and dial the number is so strong, but stronger yet is the common sense i was taught. It is 1 am, i hvnt been in contact with this person for a long while, it is the night before Eid, wouldn't it be rude to just call at this odd timing? Not to mention if there was some1 else by their side.

So i decided to ramble here... in hope that if i never get the guts to call, he could read this and understand.

The memories stuck to my brain is hard to erase... perhaps good memories are always fun to cherish, but along with tht they bring stabbing pain to my heart. The pain of knowing tht it's just a memory and may never be the same again. I may never see his face again.

Perhaps he has changed, perhaps i have changed; but something inside me tells me that up to this moment only he could make sense of the equilibrium im experiencing. It's an odd feeling that tells me he is at the same level i am and perhaps even he is searching for me whether he realize it or not.

There is this image of the this one time we were at the same place together. I remember the look in his eyes as he watched me dance. When he saw me looking he caught my eyes and smiled. So many things, so may feelings transfered just by that one look, one smile.

People laughed at my silly 'delusions', as they call it. They laugh at my faith. They tell me he is meaningful to me because i let him be and has nothing to do with fate. I, in return, laugh at their ignorance. Nothing happens by chance... everything is predestined and i, tho having a choice, can't fight destiny.

He was there when i needed guidance, he was there when i try so hard to make sense of what was going on, when i try so hard in trying to see the positive in things. He would laugh at me and tell me that life sucks and i just have to deal with it. He showed me reality and showed me tho it sucks sometimes, its always fun to live in it and come out of it as a winner. I, in exchange, showed him how to dream, how to imagine and let the imagination brings him to places he never been. I showed him to dream until the dream came true.

We were there for each other when we needed each other. But as time pass, i walked forward and he stayed stationed.

Now, i find myself in the same place... it seems like even as i walked forward, i was making just a turn. Or perhaps at every corner of the path we take always lies similar troubles... similar puddles and black holes.

I wondered if i had just made a turn and came back to where i started, or had i moved forward and just met a similar situation but not the same. Then i came to a conclusion that i had walked forward and the place i am in right now, though seems similar, is a different one than the one i was in before. Had it been the same then he would hv been here... as he had stayed stationed, but he isnt, so i knew i had moved forward.

Either Way

You are my sweetest dream and my worst nightmare…

Either way, I don’t wanna wake up

You are my reason of living and my cause of death…

Either way, I can’t ignore you

You are my ups and my downs…

Either way, I need you

You are my happiest days and my crappiest moments…

Either way, I survive through them

You are my brightest summer and coldest winter…

Either way, I enjoy them

You are the best thing in my life and the worst…

Either way, I cheerish You

You are my perfect flaw and my hugest mistake…

Either way…

I’m glad I know You

Walk Walk Dear Soul

Walk, walk dear soul
In the darkness of the world
Close your eyes and reach your goal

Climb the stairs and fear not to fall
In places where courage aren’t sold
Walk, walk dear soul

Collect bits and pieces of life as you roll
Then when the jar of time is filled
Close your eyes and reach your goal

Fear not to be stopped by the wall
Be brave and bold
Walk, walk dear soul

Don’t you hear the call?
You have future to mold
Close your eyes and reach your goal

Till you reach, rest not your soul
Do it not for the silver and gold
Walk, walk dear soul
Close your eyes and reach you goal

Don't Judge Me

Don’t judge me from what I do, but from my reason to do so…

Don’t judge me from what I say, but from what I meant by it…

Don’t judge me from what my decisions are, but from the reason I chose them…

Don’t judge me from a first impression, but know me for who i am every day…

Don’t judge me from what I think, but know first y I thought of that at the first place…

Don’t judge me by my atitude, coz sometimes it aint as it looks…

You might be able to read me like a book, but i’m not as shalow as u think!

I’m a sponge; i absorb everything n shaped by them…

Hurt me once, hurt me twice…. be the reason for my Successful life! :)
