The Letter

Forwarded from a lovely friend :)


"..to all those waiting....and to all those whose search is finally over....and to those who has friends who are still searching.... A Letter to the One that God has Prepared for Me.

I am wondering at this very minute if you are thinking of me... if like me, you are wondering when we will finally find each other. Many times I thought I have finally found you, only to be disillusioned... the fact is, my search has not yet ended.

How we will meet then, would it be like in a black and white movie? Or could you have been someone I have already known all my life? Perhaps I would be drawn to you by your smile, or the way you make me laugh with your silly little ways. I don't really know for sure, but I pray that God will help me recognize you when the right time comes.

Sometimes I ask myself if I have ever really known Love. I guess we will never really know, until we find that right person.... and since I have not found you yet, then maybe I haven't really experienced true love yet.

I think of the many trying times that I have gone through since I began my search, but I guess that all these lessons will be worth the pain and sacrifice. After all, the tears I shed have been washing away my flaws so that I would become a better, and perfect person for you. And when that time comes, everything will fall in place, just as we had imagined it would be.

In the mean time, take care of yourself for me. Hold on to our dream and never let go. Believe that we will find each other no matter what happens. God has planned the course, and it is up to us to follow His directions.

Don't be afraid of getting lost. God saw to it that all the roads, no matter which one you choose to follow, will lead to me."

One more

One more... Ba da da please
:D



Stay Beautiful
(Last Goodnight)

Light Reprise

"Fwd: Light at the end of the tunnel



No matter what situations life throws at you...

No matter how long and treacherous your journey may seem...



Remember, there is a light at the end of the tunnel!

You're laughing aren't you?
that's good .......my job here is done!

Have a great day."



Lol great timing, just when I needed it most to drag me out of the slumps.

Definitely maybe then.

Chasing Pavements

Hand in Hand

When nothing should ever deter us from our dreams and goals...


"He without leg...
She without hand..."


Centrestage - Hand in Hand

Slow me down

Backpack

Move forward. Don't stop.
The backpack. Weighted.
Yet lightens by the day.
The future beckons.
Doesn't it spell opportunity... a silver lining?

Dimples.
Hello, back from a holiday already?

Pouring December rain?
It will still be a happy Xmas.
And an excellent new year.

Shimmer

Never lose sight of the goal.
Never.


Even if it was just for a reason.
Thank you then, reason.

Equation

Five smiles to offset a frown.
One frown to erase all smiles.

How much laughter do we need then
To put them back?

Surface Deep

Not a butterfly that flits from flower to flower.
Not a pebble that skims & jumps across the surface.

Just a freaking rock.
That sinks straight to the bottom.
Just a freaking swan.
That foolishly lives in blissful naivity.

What casualness?
What callousness?

If only we are all done pretending.
If only we can finally leave our masks behind.

Running Out

Is time essentially ticking out on us;
If we hesitate in leaving our comfort zone;
If we couldn't strive hard enough for what we have always aimed for;
Even after countless disappointments encountered?

Do we willingly slave away through our daily routine;
Dieing a little every second, every minute, every day;
Too busy to question the ultimate role of our existence?
But even if we do start asking those relevant questions,
Would we ever find that answer in time?

The cows home yet?

The passion for success and recognition.
That naturally warrants constant endeavors 'til the cows come home.


Hmm.
Even those cows came home before I did.

Moo?

Currents

Raging.
Crashing into sharp rocks.

Jumped?
Its depth. Deceivingly shallow.
Lifted foot. Balanced on the slippery rock.
Gracefully. Hopefully.

Fluttered over to the bank.
Still dry. Quiet giggle.

A Little

If only today was a lil longer.
If only tomorrow comes a lil later.

If only the weekdays are a lil shorter.
Then those weekends would be a lil closer.

Light

(In the bg: Fix You by Coldplay)



Black and white. Hard edges, like paper cutouts.
Softened with shades of grey. Grainy.
Like the rain hitting against the windshield.

Behind the wheel of an antique.
Black. Shiny.
It crawls so slowly on the uneven tar. Soaked.

Left the place of mirrors.
Grand. Spectacular. Empty.
Just mirrors.

Occasional flashes of light. Fills the interior.
Harsh. Sometimes gentle.
Nudges on.

The map on the floor, unused.
The invisible thread beckons. Yet so fragile.
Where to? Black. Or White.

Does it matter?
No more mirrors.

Does it matter now?

Counting More Trees

Tree. Tree. Lamp post. Tree. Lamp post. Poly. Tree.
Tree. Lamp post. Tree. Tree. (Oh there was a building?). Tree. Lamp post.
Tree. Tree with red flowers. (Wonder how long it'll take to reach the other side?). Stop.

Almost there. Almost.

Counting Trees

Tree. Tree. Lamp post. Tree. Lamp post. Poly. Tree.
Tree. Lamp post. Tree. Tree. Damn building. Tree. Lamp post.
Tree. Tree with red flowers. Stop.

Goddammit.

It's gonna take more than a while.

One Day

One day.
I will climb the highest mountain,
And braze the freezing temperature of the polar caps,
To emerge the conquerer of all things impossible.
But not today. Today I tend to the blisters and callouses on my feet.

One day.
I would see the vivid colors of the most beautiful flower,
Grown from the rarest and most precious breeds,
To fill the garden with the scents and blooms of perfectness.
But not today. Today I discard the silver seeds that couldn't bloom.

One day.
I would walk down the hallway gilded with gold,
Furnished with exquisite paintings new and old,
Admiring every single sketch & daubs layered with care and love.
But not today. Today I wash the crusts of paint off the brushes.

One day. But not today.

Glow In The Dark

Whoa...

To think that I was supposed to be less busy after JamX...
Underestimated the damage of FYP and The Auditions...
But tt would be bedtime story for another day...


Today's rant day...

Maybe I've gotten tired with the many hasty judgements ppl made...
Thinking that one meeting, one laugh, one frown, one word would give one the authority to slap a permanent label on a person's character...

Hence the battle between the extreme impressions...
Absolut phantom/geek vs. Absolut pleasure-seeker...
Fickle-mindednes vs. Unbridled determination...

Deceptively simple conclusions made with the snap of a finger...
Skewed only to one narrow angle...
Many failing to stop... to pause... to understand...
The myriad of other factors making up the complexity of an individual...


What about the childhood history tt built the her foundation of principles and values?
The life-changing decisions and events that shaped her into what she had become?
The struggles and sacrifices tt strengthened or weakened her?
The unmentioned sadness and worries beneath a facade of cheerfulness?
The reserved bulk of compassion and kindness harboured so carefully?


So the next time you claim you know one well...
Expecially a complex one...
Take a lil more time getting the facts right...
Before stumbling about with the wrong judgement

New Year Resolution

1. Get a $$$$$ job.

Fat chance

2. Avoid heartbreaks.

Might as well turn les

3. Prioritise.

Then why am I still blogging?

Happy New Year peeps.

May all your resolutions come true.

Nevertheless 2005 has been an undeniably eventful year.

Encounters bittersweet. Extremely.

Painful ones aplenty to forget...

Better ones aplenty to be grateful for...

Best ones the hardest to come by,

to be delicately preserved in the heart for years to come,

to stay as vivid and resplendent as a full-blown rose...

Thank you.
