Believe
Is believing enough? Can I really have everything I need if I just believe? Believe...I guess I have to start believing again...To believe that there is a miracle in this world. :) There are miracles in this world right?Have any of u ever believed in Santa? Fairies? Angels? Well, I do. and in a way, I kind of still do. When I was younger, I believed in Santa as in literally Santa himself. U know, Mr Claus from the North Pole...Now, I still believe in Santa but Santa as a person who gives...who cares...and who shares with u. Kind of like a friend...a best friend. A person who gives what he or she can...who is not selfish at all...That's Santa. So, I guess there's a Santa just right by urside. At times, we have to believe in our heart...to believe in our dreams and faith...and magic...and miracles. It is really nice to believe I guess...Like believing in the existance of guardian angels. Like the song sung by Josh Groban, "...believe in what u feel inside, and give ur dreams the wings to fly..." I find that kind of true.You know, as we grow older, we tend to grow up and out of believing and start living like a "realistic adult". No more fairies, no more angels, no more Santa...but, that kills the meaning of life. Life is full of believing and hoping...Of coz as we grow up, we have to be realistic...but it does not hurt to believe in stuffs like that. ^_^ I guess in a way some things are worth believing. Remember the wise guy who told me to believe that ppl on the face of the earth are naturally good!? Well, I guess I am learning to accept that and believe that. Though it might not be true for me, but it is something that is worth believing. And to also believe that true love exists and love at times can conquer all. Again, it could be something that would never happen to me, but it is worth believing. Well, there's one more thing that I still believe...I believe in a pot of gold or luck on the other side of the rainbow. I know some of u might think it's crap but to me, it's something that i kind of find worth believing. silly huh? And i still believe in magics and miracles. Everything happens for a reason. And i believe that magic and miracles make contribution to some of the things that happen! Well, what do u believe?This is a really beautiful song. Polar express really tells u that believing is important. I guess it is...isn't it? :)Children sleeping snow is softly falling.
Dreams are calling like bells in the distance.
We were dreamers not so long ago.
But one by one we all had to grow up.
When it seems the magic slipped away,
we find it all again on Christmas day...
Believe in what your heart is saying,
hear the melody that's playing.
There's no time to waste,
there's so much to celebrate.
Believe in what you feel inside,
And give your dreams the wings to fly.
You have everything you need,
If you just believe.
Trains move quickly to their journey's end.
Destinations are where we begin again.
Ships go sailing far across the sea.
Trusting starlight,
to get where they need to be.
When it seems that we have lost our way,
we find ourselves again on Christmas day...
Believe in what your heart is saying,
hear the melody that's playing.
There's no time to waste,
there's so much to celebrate.
Believe in what you feel inside,
And give your dreams the wings to fly.
You have everything you need,
If you just believe.
If you just believe.
If you just believe.
If you just believe.
Just believe.
Just believe.
Learn to love and be loved
Have u ever thought that there would be one point that u would lose ur loved ones? How would that feel? Sad? Angry? Fear? Frustration? I would definitely without a doubt feel sad...and also angry. I have a great fear of losing my loved ones. Losing them to sickness...Losing them to accidents...or losing them to old age. This got me thinking about the phrase i once read in a book "Learn to Love and be Loved". How do we love a person? Is is merely on materials? Or just caring? Then again, there's like different kinds of love. The love for your family, for your spouse, for your friends, etc. And there's like a whole different way of expressing love to your family compared to the love you express to your friends. So...back to the question...How do we love a person? I guess it's giving...but not blindly giving, but giving with a heart...a heart which is full of compassion, and love, and...gratefulness. To appreciate and to respect your loved ones are important as well. How do we be loved then? That's easy right...u just...sit there and feel the love. =) I guess it is pretty much related to the fact of how much do u accept the person. How much love are u accepting. But i believe, when u love, u'll be love. It's that whole karma thing in buddhism. So...learning to love and be loved isn't that difficult after all right?Hmmm...not for me. I guess it's the fear of losing someone. When u give a person everything and they just...go away...that's heart breaking. That's a sad sad thing. learning to love and to give a person everything is really tough. I don't think it's easy at all. It's no where near being easy. But, a wise person told me, it's the experience that counts...not the outcome. I thought about it, and it's kind of true! You know, when we play RPG (Role Play Game), it's the journey of getting to the final task that counts. I love playing Final Fantasy. What satisfies me is the journey I took to get to the final destination. It's the experience...the ultimate journey... Death is something I can't really take it just yet. I understand the concept, but I fear Death. I fear losing my loved ones and at times, these are the fears that is holding a person back from loving even more! ahhh..what the heck.#Learn to love and be loved# That's a beautiful phrase...dont' u think?
U were there...
Is there such a thing as...Forever love? Everlasting Love? Is it possible to love a person forever, and ever? Is it possible to still love a person and be married and living happily ever after? These are things that I would never ever have a conclusion. Never. I don't know. Answer to all the above is I don't know.Forever...that's a long time now isn't it? Can u say u love a person forever? I guess u can if he or she is the right person. Everything just feels right if he or she is the ONE. I am now obssessed with this song from the 80s by the Southern Sons. It's really nice and touching and here's the lyrics to that song...I guess you heard, I guess you know
In time I'd have told you, but I guess I'm too slow.
And it's overly romantic but I know that it's real
I hope you don't you mind if I say what I feel.
It's like I'm in somebody else's dream,
This could not be happening to me.
But you were there, and you were everything I'd never seen.
You woke me up from this long and endless sleep.
I was alone.I opened my eyes and you were there.
Don't be alarmed, no don't be concerned.
I don't want to change things leave them just as they were.
I mean nothing's really differentIt's me who feel strange.
I'm always lost for words when someone mentions your name.
I know I'll get over this for sure
I'm not the type who dreams there could be more.
But you were there, and you were everything I'd never seen.
You woke me up from this long and endless sleep.
I was alone.I opened my eyes and you were there.
Can I take your smile home with me,
or the magic in your hair?
The rain has stopped, the storm has passed
Look at all the colors now the sun's here at last.
I supposed that you'll be leaving but I want you to know
Part of you stays with me even after you go.
Like an actor playing someone else's scene
This could not be happening to me.
But you were there, and you were everything I'd never seen.
You woke me up from this long and empty sleep.
I was alone.I opened my eyes and no,
I'm not alone, I'm not alone.I opened my eyes and you were there.
How many guys are actually like that? Love...I'll talked about that in the next blog...until then...
What do u want to do if tomorrow is your last day on earth?
I am now reading Tuesdays with Morrie (by Mitch Albom) and I have to say...this book is like the best book that has ever been written. I did post something up about the Five People You Meet in Heaven (which is also written by Mitch Albom) and I thought that book is really good. This...this book is not only good, but it's different. It makes the readers think...as what Mitch has done. Think. One of the things that Morrie told Mitch was "If you learn how to die, you'll learn how to live". I thought about this phrase many times...and I mean..MANY TIMES. It's an interesting phrase, don't you think? Morrie said that if you know that you would be gone tomorrow, you'll live your life differently. Money, Fame, Popularity, Materials etc won't be that important anymore. So I was just thinking, if tomorrow never comes for me...what would I do? What would I want to do now?I thought for a while, and I told myself, I want time with my mum, dad and 2 sisters and really close friends, sitting by the beach in total silence. I want to experience the magic and the power of not talking, but being able to feel the bond and the love between family members and really close friends! I believe that you can feel it. Sometimes, the love that exist does not need any clarification whatsoever. It can be felt, despite the time, the location. No boundaries. Anyway, back to the topic...I sometimes feel that there are too many talking around (and that would definitely include me coz I talk a LOT!) and not enough listening. Feel the silence...Of course this kind of silence is different from the uncomfortable silence that is sometimes felt when we have gathering with friends, etc. This kind of silence is soothing, knowing the presence of your loved ones is more than enough. Hmmmm...I think that would be the BESTEST last day of my life. =) How about urs? What would you want your last day to be like?
tEaRs
Why do a person cry? It could because of happiness, it could be because of sadness, it could be due to frustration, anger, stress, etc. The question now is that, is it OK to cry? Crying...is that an indication that the person is weak?
It wouldn't be wrong for me to say that averagely, a girl cries more than a guy. Is this an implication that since girls are more emotional then girls are of the weaker link? I do not think so! Crying or shedding a tear is another form of expressing ourselves. It's like, some people choose to scream when they are all stressed out...or, eat when they are happy... and well, some people just choose to cry! Like me! :-)
Crying is at times good. You would kinda hurt yourself if like you cry way too much, but other than that, it's just a form of letting all your frustration, sadness, stress out! After you cry, u'll be surprise by how relieved you would feel. My mum use to say, "girl, you have grown up now. Don't cry when u like to! u have to learn how to control yourself!" and i told her that i don't cry when i want to. I cry when it is time to cry! there are moments for crying you know! ;-)
Soooo ppl, don't be afraid to cry. Never ever be afraid to express yourself. Expressing and telling ppl what you think is just part of life. It's something which is pretty important. Everyone has something to say, and every idea is brilliant. Express...before you regret!
the QUIET moments
Hmmm...quiet moments. I seldom have those moments during my schooling years...at least up till university stage. There's always someone at home (well, even in uni, I have studied in the university in my hometown, so I have very little "experience" living alone)...Once I got home, I'll start to BABBLE non-stop, about whatever that have happened to me that very day! Well, there's no doubt that I DO talk alot. Basically everything and anything else that has happened. Ok, back to my point. I have never ever experienced really quiet times alone until recently!My whole family in a way to another city...Dad got transferred, sisters studying there, and mum...just travelling between the 2 places. Only thing, I think she went there more often. Anyway, I have this weekend to be alone again (which is like...I think it's like for the nth time). The usual weekdays, u'll work all day and when u get back, u don't really feel the quietness. Well, on weekends, (considering the fact that i choose to stay home)...it's soooo quiet, I keep hearing my thoughts. hehehhe...but it's kinda fun actually. It can be boring at times, but then again, you have the time to think about stuffs! No distraction, no noise (well, except for the ones I make), no...nothing. It is a strange feeling when no one is around to talk to u. I think you breath would actually stink for not opening your mouth the whole 24 hours. or maybe more. =) but it is indeed a great feeling to have "THE ULTIMATE" silent moments to ourselves. We need to take a break from talking to humans, and for once, just listen to the thoughts inside our head! I'll be having more and more quiet moments I guess...as I grow older...n I can't believe that half the year has passed (okie, this is beside the point)...silent...nice... ^_^
~Soul mates~
Crap! I haven't exactly update my blog since May...which is a rather long time. Okie...what should I talk about today? I'll talk about soul mates. Now, is there such a thing? hmmm...I guess my answer would be...NO! :-) Why u ask? Well, coz that's something which I think only happen in fairy tales...
How do you define your soul mate? Someone who is meant for you? Someone you would want to marry and would live the rest of your life being the happiest person on earth? Someone who is like 101% compatible? Someone who is so perfect for you? Someone who understands you so well? Someone who COMPLETES you? I honestly don't know how to define soul mates. I would say that whether he or she is your soul mate is defined by yourself. It's not like I don't believe in fate, but at times, how do you know that he or she is your soul mate? Would a guy who is so compatible and so perfect for you who later cheats on you be known as your soul mate? Hmmm... I don't know.
I could be writing this simply because that I haven't met my soul mate yet. I have like the bestest friends ever (u know who u r), but soul mate...NAHHH... Well, some ppl might just post a comment saying that they have met theirs. But how true is it? How can you tell that he or she is the guy or the gal for you? I believe you can't tell! :-)
Maybe one of you out there might have met the ONE for you...let me know. Let US know! Tell us the story... or maybe give us a tip or 2 in getting one for ourselves! Till then, have a great weekend!~
