Life's like hills...

When you were in kindergarten, did you learn how to draw? Well, the drawings are typical... A piece of really wide land, a round smiley sun, a few V-shaped-line birds, and... HILLS...

Well, life's like that...like hills I mean... lines of those hills are drawn up and down, up and down repetitively. Life is full of ups and downs. At times you feel like you're making so much progress in certain things, finally going to achieve something really meaningful and after that a gradual slope downwards and here comes disappointment. And most of the times we tend to look back more to our sad times rather than our happy times.

You can't blame yourself, you can't blame the life's nature to be like that, you can't blame God... basically you can't blame anyone or anything... because it's no one's fault. It nature. It happens to each and every living person in this world.

But remember this... in that very drawing, there is always a sun = new hopes everyday, a flock of birds = a groups of friends and family to accompany you along the way, a shade of clouds = a place or time for you to rest and relax, green trees = a reminder that you should just live the life thankfully ^^

Opposites...

What was the first thing that came across your mind when you see the word "opposite"? Opposite attracts? Opposite worlds?

Guys and girls, may I remind you that the first (opposite attracts) leads you to one of the world's valuable time of your life by getting into a relationship while the latter (opposite worlds) leads you to one of the world's most devastating ending in you life. The so-called excuse that boy and girl from different worlds and then break up. Isn't it amazing how just the change of one word can bring such drastic changes?

Opposite are interesting. Its things that are not usually found, you can't see it in yourself. You have to look around and this is what makes life fun living. For couples, appreciate the opposites. If you got a problem with it, solve it. It's not like you're going to be to find anyone who is exactly like you. Take advantage of the opposites. Turn them into glues of your relationship instead of an axe. Take the challenge, live the life. You might find it worth your risks.

Inevitable

Sometimes in life, there a few things that you cannot avoid. No matter how much you think about it or how many alternative ways you form to go around, these things won't go away. You might say that it got stuck there.

Many of us make plans. Plans for the future. Plans to go hang out, plans for dates, plans for dinners, plans for farewell parties, plans for weddings.

BUT somehow, something just had to pop up and show up in the middle of everything, making all your plans go to the recycle bin. Well, it could end up in a recycle bin because you may only need to postpone your plans but most of them you have to delete it permanently because you don't have the drive to go ahead with them anymore.

Of course you have to weigh the IMPORTANCE of your plans with that pop-up stuffs first, then only make decisions. You see, certain things are inevitable... which mean you have to accept them as they come. Being frustrated over it brings no benefit at all. Deal with it.

Fiction...

Imagine a world. One of your own. One you can throw in all your imaginations in. Arrange everything as you like. Put all the bright-coloured puzzle pieces into the picture and throw aside all the dark, black pieces.

Paint those holes with your own colour. It need not be perfect. It need not be beautiful. It just need to be completed with your favourites =) happy ?

*blink blink* Your up. Awake and away from your fiction world. Then you realise you need to get back to the real world. Sorry to break the news that you have to get on with your life then... Well, don't try to go for the unreachable. Stay close to the ground. Hold thoughts of the possibles in your mind. Take a look around you carefully. You don't want to miss an interesting event or maybe an interesting person. Thank God for whatever you have and I guess you have to pray hard if you want more. Remember... the fiction world will lead you to no where else but further from life. From reality. 

Daring moves...

When it comes to big decisions, sudden change of situation, or to make daring moves, we will always stop and ponder for a while. Some of us may take a few days to consider the pros and cons of making a certain choice, some may take weeks or months, however, there are some of us that would take forever to wonder the possibilities but never take any action. 

At some point of your lives, big decisions determine the turning point of your lives. Either one of the choices you've made will lead you down a great and adventurous journey OR it may bring you down, all the down to misery, regret and guilt. They say when it comes to times like this, turn to professionals or experienced people. They say go with the flow... bla bla bla~~~ I say sit down, pray to God, be silent a while to rest your mind and then listen to your heart.. The first thought that comes into your mind, go with it. Don't hesitate or wonder any longer. 

Once you've made that first step, never ever look back. Trust yourself and have confidence in your choice. If you do not do so, you might feel only regrets. 

Faded memories...

How well do you remember your childhood memories? Back when you first talk, when you first stood up, when you took your very first step since birth or even when you had your first crush?

Recently I was required to call back my memories, way back into my childhood times where I did all those things above, meeting my first few friends and going to kindergarten as well as primary school. I realised that I've went through several stages of life already! Those memories are faded and they seemed to be quite a distant away from my mind now. However, when I had the opportunity to sit down and recall them, I was glad and thankful that I had the chance to go through them all and meet all those people in my life. I guess this is what they call life experiences. 

The first thing that came through my mind was the time when i was playing with my childhood friends. Hide-and-seek was the only game we play everytime we see each other and we never get bored of it. 

As time passes, I realised that I played less.  After getting into primary school, i would use every opportunity when it came to sports time to get myself all around the field. Each time i fell, I would pick myself up without letting a drop of tears out eventhough it hurts so much. Each time I fail to win the sport, I would tell my self to try harder again next time and not giving up so quickly. Each time I fought with my teammates, I would be the first one give in and join our friendships again. But how come as I grew up, all those courageous thing I once was able to simply do it, and now I find it so hard? 

The next stage of my life was secondary school. Well, things got more complicated there. However, no matter how rough my start was, God always polished the road ahead of me and allowed me to have a great time for a couple years. I guess I didn't appreciate those times well enough. 

Thirdly comes college. Well technically, I go all the way out of town to attend to that particular college. Then again, things started out roughly as I wasn't able to adapt to the whole new environment, the people, the furnitures and most importantly the STUDYING. Studying in this college beats studying for SPM or whatever.. This is when life started to get really stressful guys... Now in university, it doesn't gets easier...

Oh well, we all have our pasts, we all have our regrets as well as sweet memories back in the old days.. But what's important is the present... Some day in the future when we are 50 or 60, look back again into your pasts. You may cry because you lost someone, you may laugh at yourself because you did something silly and at that time you didn't realise it was sutpid or you may congratulate yourself because you finally achieve something in life. When you do all those things I told you so, there will be no regrets. Write a diary, tell your grandchildren, let your very own life live on forever eventhough you may be not around. Because, wherever you go, whatever you do, those memories remain. They may be faded a little, but they can never disappear. This I tell you, is one very expensive treasure of life.

Girl's Dreams...

Many may think that girl's dreams are silly and should stay just as dreams. But think of it this way. We always heard about girls mentioning that they want their prince charming riding towards them on white horses. Well, when girls say they want to meet their prince charming, it doesn't mean that they want to meet someone handsome, tall, hot or smart. Prince charming means soul mate, someone to take care of them, some one who will love them and be loyal to them, some one who will hold them in their arms and tell them everything will be okay when troubles come and someone who will kiss them to show their affection, and that white horse means bright future. Another example is about the cliche of princes and princesses living happily ever after. Well, that cliche doesn't means that girls wanna be with their boyfriend being happy all the time as we all know that there is no such thing. "Happily ever after" means that girls want to be happy even after many arguments and troubles. They want to be able to fix things together and going through the ups and downs with the love of their lives. That way a relationship can be build stronger. Every girl has their dreams and every dream brings a very deep meaning about their lives.
