Loneliness

I know how it feels to be lonely. It didn't really need much effort to learn. It just comes as it wants to.

10 December 2003

Old Friends

What is this familiar feeling that I am experiencing now? Is this pain? Is this agony? Is this defeat? It would blow over soon. For now, I'll accompany them while they are here.

07 December 2003

Part of Me

So, what if I am gutless? It's just an indication of how incompetant I am at this. It doesn't show the whole of me. Do I have to explain myself everytime when things happen?

05 December 2003

The Angel of False Hope

No anticipation. No hope. Am I the creator of false hope? I suppose we play that role now and then. Be thoughtful of not becoming one though.

Easy Way Out

It's easier to run away than to face the actual problem at hand. There are times when the so called problem would just dissolve by itself. On other times, matter would just be as it is, or get worst.

Car Flooding

Cars are like flood water. They are everywhere at this time of the year.

21 November 2003

Sentimental?

Every now and then, we would do things out of habit. It might not be the smartest way to do it. Yet, we still choose to do it that way. All this could have been of the memories that linger around that thing, or it's just pure old habit that doesn't follow normal reasoning.

20 November 2003

In The Know

Life

Envy

Someone would be envious of someone else at a certain point of their life. One would get a chance to play the former or the latter at different stages of one's life.

Hue of Emotions

It left as fast as it came. One minute you can feel as if you are deep down in the pits of endless sadness and loneliness. The very next, you could feel as if you are high above the clouds, savouring joy and happiness. That's how fast ones emotion can change.

Principle of Equal Trade

Time

I can't find "time" from where you are. I think i'll move on and find "time" elsewhere.

26 October 2003

Pivotal Change

Your life begins to change when you want to change and when you make the effort to change. It all bores down to how badly you can live with or without that change.

25 October 2003

Self Inflicted Agony

Eventhough I know what lies ahead. Eventhough I know that it would cause me unspeakable pain and despair. Why do I still pursue it despite having this foresight?

Tidy Up

It's hard to start something. It's harder to pick up from where other's have left behind.

05 October 2003

Unexpected

We are afraid of the unexpected. Who isn't? As the word suggests - unexpected. Would it be less terrifying if we expected it?

04 October 2003

Life

Life isn't really that bad after all. It does come with pockets of surprises now and then.

23 September 2003

Stupid

I've had it. This is the last call. No more requests, please. I can do it still, but I don't want no part of it anymore. I don't want to give anymore. It doesn't serve a purpose anymore. I am tired and I am stupid. Leave me alone.

22 September 2003

Scream!!

"Hey, you! Yes, you! I am talking to you. Know this. You are not the only person who is tired and stressed out. Do you think you can just treat others the way you are now? Stop being so bloody childish and grow up."

16 September 2003

Reflection

What we do everyday, what we comment on, what we like or dislike, is a reflection of our beliefs and values. If you complain a lot on a certain thing, say for example, you don't like people who smoke, this could be partly because you won't allow yourself to do so and you hope to enforce this belief of yours on others as well. Think about what you say, it might reveal what is really going on inside.

Out of sight out of mind

The more I think about it, the more it makes sense. I'd rather not to know of her presence anymore than to be upset by these occasional visitation she is so fond of doing.

The Game

Be prepared for the unknown, be prepared more for failure. If you are not ready for this, it would be wise to abstain from participating in this game altogether.

02 September 2003

Making decisions

Quick to make decisions, slow to change it. That should be the way to go. It does show persistence in your stance on making your decision.

26 August 2003

Disappointment

We are disappointed by others for not meeting our expectations. Is this right? Well, I doubt so. It's as if we want others to be like us. That is near to impossible. Why can't we be like them instead? Then, we might has less things to be disappointed about.

21 August 2003

Blind

Things may not be as what it seems. There is more than meets the eye. Most of the time, We would enforce our views, our beliefs into such things long before we get to see a clearer picture. We are blinded by our own ignorance and be deprived of the chance to find out the real truth.

17 August 2003

Neglected

I don't think you would know how I feel. You didn't bother to reach out, and left me alone by the corner.

13 August 2003

Enough

Enough is enough. Stop wasting my time. Tell me if what I do troubles you. I won't know until you tell me so. It so happen that I was not born with the gift of mind reading. Don't give me promises that you intend to break eventually, and stop wasting my time.

12 August 2003

Annoyed

Come on, you can do better than that. This is not the first time you are doing this to me. Don't give me false hope if you do not intend to keep your part of the bargain. Do you know that it really hurts?

05 August 2003

No Vacancy

It dawned on me that she is not interested in the suggestion at all. I might be wrong about this, but all indications do point to the fact that there is no place for me anywhere.

02 July 2003

Lost of Ideas

To tell you the truth, I am not sure what I should or could do now. I am at a lost of ideas on how to go on.

30 June 2003

Company

There are times where I wouldn't mind going through all the traffic just to be with some good company. There are times where I would rather slouch in front of the idiot box than to be picked up by some so crowd.

23 June 2003

Me

Accept me for who I am. All my strengths and also my weaknesses. Accept the whole of me, as that is who I am.

17 June 2003

Pain

I feel that familiar pang again. My heart felt as if it is being pounded. I can feel that agonizing feeling of being thoroughly defeated. I know too well that I have full control over all this. Yet, I still torture myself with all this. "Why?", you may ask. It's because I have fallen for someone that I have been waiting for most of my life.

16 June 2003

Failure

Be ready to face any failure. Don't be too surprised when it happens. Not everything in life will go right all the time. The most important thing though is that you have done your part and tried. The rest will normally be left for fate to decide.

15 June 2003

Absent

Don't avoid me because I have been true with my feelings. Do consider this proposition though. Also bear in mind that without trying to open up your heart again, you would not know whether you are ready to face this matter. Give me this chance to show what I have to offer, that's all that I dare to ask for now.

05 June 2003

Make up your mind

If you have made up your mind and have come to a conclusion, stick to that decision. At the very least, you don't have to be troubled by it later on when there is a need to choose. Let this matter rest once and for all, see this matter as if it was never meant to be even at the very beginning.

03 June 2003

Giving Up

Every time when I feel giving up, you would find a way to sneak into my mind and push away that thought. Is it my own doing, or is it really you?

01 June 2003

Uncertainty

What am I to do in times like this? The indication so far has been so vague. I am not sure if this is an sign to nudge me on, or it is just an overly polite gesture.

The Path

"Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference." - Robert E. Frost.

This the path I chose, this the way I would travel, no matter how lonely it would end.

Anticipation

Where there is anticipation, there is always this possibility of a set back. They might not be synonymous all the time, but this possibility is never too far away.

20 May 2003

Perception

All things are neutral by nature. It's our perception that makes it either good or evil.

19 May 2003

Emotion

All anger and hate, all joy and happiness, comes from within. We can't be touched by emotions if we do not want to be touched.

17 May 2003

Advice

Advice may be free, but be cautious of who you are giving it to. Most of the time, people don't really want our unwelcomed input.

16 May 2003

Contemplation

Observe and be a bit reserved when being close to others. Do take note of their likes and dislikes, attitudes and most important of all, the way they react to things that happen around us, and also in times of crisis.

12 May 2003

Improve

Take what others have that is good or worthy as a guide to improve ourselves. Stop being envious of what others are capable of. It's just a waste of time.

Envy

Every now and then, we become envious of those who are better off than us.

Guilty
