命中注定

Just watched a documentary on Channel U. Its a series about lives of 2 ppl who were born on the same day, same month, same year. How can you beat the odds? :)

Today story is about a young couple. Wow, the story machiam really from a novel lor..haha.

Gary and Millie were born on the same day, same month, same year. Both had difficult childhood. Gary is genetically monochromatic. His world consist of only black and white. He was inferior of his handicap and was always compared against his brother who is the better one. He became a gangster cos they are the only ones who make him feel loved and unique.

Millie was the middle child and always felt neglected by her parents. She is very quiet and keep things to herself. Never would the 2 of them thought they will find their soul mate in each other.

As fate would have it, they both went to the same Secondary school, same class in Sec 3, same CCA and participated in NDP. Millie never had a good impression of Gary at first. He was the typical Ah Beng type. But as they spend almost everyday together and got to know each other more, a precious friendship developed. It was as if they are fated to be together and a confidant to each other. It was so sweet when they re-enact the part when they confess to each other their feelings. Gary really loved Millie.

I love the way when Gary said Millie is cute, whether in character or appearance and just seeing her smile makes his day. Whenever he is upset, he will definitely melt under Millie's smile. Soooo sweet hor? Then there was once they had a very heated quarrel and Gary decided to take a walk. He sensed Millie was nearby and true enough, they meet right in the middle of the street and collapased into each other's arms.... drama hor? LOL. And maybe they have the same birthdate and thus there is telepathy between them. They almost can find each other....Awww...

Some lucky ones will find their soul mate, some will never be found. Is it heaven-made or man-made? Haha, if heaven never make, then will have to depend on us lor... :p

But to have the chance to walk side by side is already something precious.
“因为有,所以再苦都意。”
“能在人生的道路相遇与通行已经是一种缘分,好好的珍惜这份缘才不枉此生”

Love

Love came ....before you know it you are already flat on your face.
That's always the way of world isn't it?

Evolution of Love

Once upon a time when we were still young, we had this innocent and utopia idea of living happily ever after with our love ones. Girls will meet their knights in shinning armour and boys will meet their gentle and beautiful princesses.

Then comes the time when we are older and have more definite idea of love. It is no longer staying in a castle, being bullied by ugly step sisters or slaying dragons. It is about heartaches, heart racing, tears, laughter. It is about being with the person you love 24/7, about wanting to make the person happy, about waiting beside the phone for under the block for hours, about wanting to provide for the person and being reliable for your love one to lean on you.

Then we lean about the damages love can inflict the hard way. Then we start to build a fortress around us. Then we start to close up. Then we start to demand more instead of giving. In order not be hurt we stop loving. I read this article in this month CLEO magazine. One of the interviewee mentioned the negative examples of those around her.. friends and family ended up in separation or divorce caused her to lose faith in marriages. If the r/s is going to end badly, why go into one in the beginning?

Men and women are getting more selfish and self-centered. They will place themselves first before their partners. We are talking about the majority here. Infidelity is not uncommon among young couples. Is it because we are greedier? We sought to live life to the fullest? Not to have any regrets? To enjoy life to the fullest? To experience love again?

Aye, me too lar. Self-centered. Expect people to love me as much as I love them. Is expectation tolerable in a relationship? Should we still maintain the notion of "Love is giving without expecting anything in return"? Is it still feasible in our current context? Shouldn't a relationship be of equal standing? Giving and claiming as much? Is this our definition and expectation of love now? That we will turn our heads away if it doesn't work out the way we want?

Some of us will want things to fall into place before we embark on another project in life. For example, career before marriage. Actually it is the most logical approach. We have all outgrown the phrase and know that we cannot live on love alone. Assuring the dough is the way to go cos if without it you can forget about a happy marriage or relationship. In the end we love our career more than our partners. Some people derived their self-worth from their jobs too. They are in control only at their playground and no where else. So is that really such a puzzle that we will rather love our computers rather than another person?

Then after working our ass off, we will be too tired to care about another person. No problem at all that we need a little personal space to unwind and take care of ourselves first but sometimes we just take things for granted and forget to thank and appreciate those who love us. So we will want someone who comes when we need them and leave us alone when we want some "me" time, do not complain when we dun have time to spend with them, yet show us the care and concern when we need them. Hmm.... sounds too good to be true? It may just happen in the near future. You can customise your virtual partner in terms of looks, personality and what you want them to do in different situations. Well, if I have the money, maybe I will research more into this. Think this will be a multi billion venture...hahaha.

So how do you define love? And how are you doing to deal with it when it finds you? Good luck! *wink*

By GEORGE CARLIN

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways , but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.

We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things.

We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom.

Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.

Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.

Remember, to say, 'I love you' to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.

Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

还我一片天

那天心血来潮想到 Marina South 去放风筝。拿了前一天刚买的风筝,充满期待的出门去了。路途还真够耗时,搭了地铁到 Marina Bay Station,平时的出口封住了,我沿着另一个出口到了陆面。该转左还是右呢?我决定了往右,就一直走,一直走,身边好多的建筑工程啊,原来是 IR 要来了...哈哈!Eh? 为什么好像到了快速公路还不见车站?于是我就问问身边的外国劳工...原来车站在另一边! 唉,没办法只好走回头路,这一下子就耗了15分种。当我赶到车站时,巴士刚开走,我只好坐在那儿乖乖的等个45分钟。我想没关系,只要我能放得了风筝就可以了,哪怕我要到的那片草地没空位,我还能到公园。

巴士终于来了,我兴奋的上了车,可是迎接我的却是重重的铲泥车,高高的铁架...我那绿油油的草地呢?那能让我牵着风筝自由奔跑到蓝天白云怀抱里的草地呢?我好失望,好失望啊!那些钢铁水泥就象是一只只妖怪咀嚼了我的天空。我也不下车了,任由巴士把我送回原点。是不是不断的向昨天借一点空间,就是更好的对待明天?

还我一片天,我只要一个空间让我的风筝飞向蓝天....

不值得

歌手:梦飞船

除了想你除了爱你
hu ~我什么什么都愿意
翻开日记整理心情
hu ~我真的真的想放弃

你始终没有爱过
你在敷衍我
一次一次忽略我的感受
我真的感到力不从心
无力继续

这感情不值得我犹豫
不值得我考虑
不值得我爱过你
这种回忆不值得我提起
不值得想起
不值得哭泣
这段感情早就应该放弃
早就不该让我浪费时间找奇迹
这样的你不值得我恨你
不值得我为你而坏了心情
我决定不为你而毁了心
放弃爱你

除了想你除了爱你
hu ~我什么什么都愿意
翻开日记打开心情
hu ~我真的真的想放弃

你始终没有爱过
你在敷衍我
一次一次忽略我的感受
我真的感到力不从心
无力继续

这感情不值得我犹豫
不值得我考虑
不值得我爱过你
这种回忆不值得我提起
不值得想起
不值得哭泣
这段感情早就应该放弃
早就不该让我浪费时间找奇迹
这样的你不值得我恨你
不值得我为你而坏了心情

我决定不为你而毁了心
不为你而放弃爱情
不为你而毁了心

我决定不为你而毁了心
放弃爱你

他不爱我

歌手:莫文尉


他不爱我牵手的时候太冷清
拥抱的时候不够靠近
oh他不爱我说话的时候不认真
沉默的时候又太用心
我知道他不爱我
他的眼神说出他的心
我看透了他的心
还有别人逗留的背影
他的回忆清除的不够乾净
我看到了他的心
演的全是他和她的电影
他不爱我尽管如此
他还是赢走了我的心

我知道他不爱我
他的眼神说出他的心
我看透了他的心
还有别人逗留的背影
他的回忆清除的不够乾净
我看到了他的心
演的全是他和她的电影
他不爱我尽管如此
他还是赢走了我的心

我看透了他的心
还有别人逗留的背影
他的回忆清除的不够乾净
我看到了他的心
演的全是他和她的电影
他不爱我尽管如此
他还是赢走了我的心
