A scenario to consider

Ok, imagine this scenario: You go to your friend's friend's wedding, and given a choice, you would rather stay at home--if it were not for moral reasons. So things get pretty awkward for you since you barely know the guests there, but you are willing to wait till the wedding reception ends because you have learnt from your friend that your friend does not have any transportation back home. It's 9PM and people are deserting the reception except for the close friends and relatives of the bride and the groom. And then the clock strikes 10PM. The awakwardness intensifies since there are only a few tables left, one of which is occupied by your friend and his other friends who are apparently drinking their everything away. Then, your friend comes along, and apologizes for your discomfort, and you go, "It's fine. I get it!" Your friend requests if you can wait till 11PM. So you decide to go outside of the reception for a drink or so just to kill the time, while letting your friend have all the fun, by promising your friend that you will drop by at 11PM to pick your friend up. So when itse 11PM, you drive back to the reception, and after walking into the reception, learns that everyone including your friend has left. Tell me how you will feel?

A stranger within YOU

Has it ever occurred to you that there is actually a stranger lurking somewhere inside you? Maybe it sounds really mental and freaking weird here. But I really can’t help brooding over this. And the more I think of it, the more it becomes crystal clear it is indeed true that a stranger is actually living my life, a stranger who has eaten up half of my real “self”, shrouding me with a totally new cover to form a person I hardly recognize. There are times when I feel really happy, but why in God’s name do I look far from happy? It is at this point that people view me in a rather negative light. Even so, the last thing I ever wish to do is, of course, to blame them. I am more than sure that they will never be able to understand me. And then there are other times when I wish more than anything to become very close to certain people. However, my attitudes towards them betray me. Nothing but coldness always hangs in the air in their presence, much to my perplexity. I remember being approa

HAPPY St. Valentine's Day!

Take a careful look around you! There might be someone in the crowd there that wishes more than anything to be noticed by you, someone that you probably knows very well but has always been taken for granted, someone that has always been standing there in your doorway, someone that has always been ready to wipe your tears, and someone that has probably shed so many tears for you without your knowledge. Such a someone deserves attention too! Happy St. Valentine's Day! Make the best out of today!

The end. The destination.

The end. The destination. There is a whole world of difference in terms of how you feel when you are on the journey, wishing you would land wherever you are supposed to land soon, and when you are there at your anticipated destination. True enough, there is nothing exciting nor great about reaching the end or the destination. The end actually means the edge of a cliff. Take one further step and you will fall down and hurt yourself real bad, and believe it or not, it is at this point that you cast a quick nostalgic glance through those aboard moments during your journey longing for those passed seconds. Then you start asking yourself silly questions. What the heck am i doing here? How can i possibly get to the other side without cracking my skull open? For the first time in your life, you feel so scared and so lost, and all you need now is someone with such great wisdom to guide you. Unfortunately reality can be very harsh. There is no fairy Godmother who just comes out of the blue, and
