the Big things in LiTTLE things..
Thursday, October 23, 2008
Many a times, we like to tell ourselves that life is actually very simple,
that we are only complicating things.
At times, we would convince ourselves that what we ask for in our lifes are just some simple stuffs,
to take things in our strides and to take things easy.
This way, we'll feel better about ourselves, as the easy things come as easily as its name suggests, into our lives.
However at other times, we do secretly harbour thoughts for greater success, for greater fulfillments in life.
Some of them so mighty that if spoken causes silent mockery.
Some of them attainable but doubts about turning them into reality exist, with so many great hurdles to overcome and barriers to break.
Many a times the darker side of me would ask myself,
Can i do it?
Especially at the lowest time of your life,
the darker side of us grows in power.
But thankfully, the optimistic side of me is always eventually fueled to rise in dominance.
When i'm faced with difficulties, i will it to turn it into pressure, pressure for me to strive for greater heights.
I would ask myself.
What's so big deal about reality?
What's such a deal about mockery?
Its even worse to have nothing to worry about realising it.
Of course, most importantly, to do it through actions.
They may not be great things, but are very good enough for me..
I have never forgotten what my Geographer teacher had once told us,
Pressure is what turns coal into diamonds.
I have never once doubted that.
And i suspect that i never will.

coming into a full circle..
Tuesday, September 09, 2008
Classes starting this week for me
And the time for me to stand independent has come as well.
I'm going to miss my family.
Lots and lots.
*A pREScrIpTIon for myself (and those who are feeling the same as i do)*:
Hold fast in your FAITH.
the greatest regret is when you lose them.
Start LOVING yourself TRULY if you haven't been.
the greatest disappointment is to fORgEt loving yourself.
LET love and BE loved.
the greatest error in life is when you dONt KnoW how.
FORGIVE the pasts.
the greatest mistake is to let yourself stuck in an endless circle of hatred.
KEEP CHARGING and N.E.V.E.R. turn bAcK.
this is only then will you come into
A FULL CIRCLE.

the Little Bee Story in me..
Wednesday, September 03, 2008
at last long the knot that has always existed deeply buried somewhere in my heart is finally found..like many others,
i have my 'times' too.
all these while my mixed feelings was just like a little bee lost in the darkness of the night,
all these while my mixed feelings was just like a little bee lost in the darkness of the night,
unable to find its way out and into the light it yearns..
all that is needed was the clouds of the dark night to pass for the moonlight to shine,
and be a guiding light for the poor little bee..
but for a long time,
there was never a light bright enough for the little bee..
finally today,
the thick clouds of the night passed and once again,
the little bee found its way home..
the only problem was that it had lingered in the darkness for far too long..
that he has strayed from his destined path..
it though once again could see clearly again,
it has lost its focus..
So now its time for the little bee to look for its destined path again
and follow its glimpses of hOpE and fAItH.
unfortunately along the way, there will be again times when darkness falls...
how could it get out of them again and again?
many a times our lives are akin as the Little Bee's Story.
sometimes no matter how hard we try to pursue our heart desires or reach for our stars,
it would be to no avail.
but it doesn't mean to give up.
until you've tried everything you can don't stop.
if you've tried everything,
just stop for a while and take a rest.
the time when brightness shines will definitely return,
just like the story, even without the sun in the dark night
there will still be the moon.
when we take a step back and do nothing it may be better.
if we move blindly in the dark, we would just end up further from where we want to head.
for months i've been in confusion where in the matters of the affairs of the heart.
but now,
i'm glad the moon has shine for me again.
and though my destiny is still blurred in my vision,
its so much better than nothing at all....
have a cupcake from me...

miracles..
Wednesday, August 20, 2008
The 5 year old Yoo Ye Eun little prodigy from Korea is absolutely amazing. Though born blind and started piano at the terribly young age of 3, she is able to play a new song on the piano just after listening the same song once.
Dubbed the New Mozart, she too has performed together with Britain's Got Talent Connie Talbot.
I'm so glad that God do treat us well.
Though Ye Eun is blind from birth,
she is given a gift so amazingly beautiful and extraordinary..
PS I was unable to upload a video of her performance due to copyright claim by the Korea SBS broadcasting company.
But i do have a picture here.

A problem without a solution isn't a problem at all..
Saturday, August 02, 2008
Sometimes..
it is really frustrating to talk to some people..
especially when they are talking about issues that are of not our concern at all..
But
there are too times where
its really nice to be able to talk to someone
not just any someone..
but one who you can really relate to..
One
Who words stuffs that are capable of leaving you to think about
Over and over again..
Today
someone said something that left me thinking hard..
To me
they were words that stood pricier than so many other words
simple. practical. meaningful all the same..
When you are faced with a problem,
there will surely be a solution..
A problem without a solution isn't a problem at all..
it is a reality.
And you win
when you learn to embrace your reality.
These words touched my heart
and i hope it touched yours too...
Alexia PS:
Of course
most of the problems in our lives are never without a solution..
Before you can use the italiced message..
Face your problems with a "half- full glass" mindset first..
the reality only comes after it..
:)

present or future?
Sunday, May 18, 2008
Is it stress?
Or have i grown up for real?
These few days i felt a sudden crave of having a home of my home, literally i meant.
I can't help but begin to fantasize how i would deco the home of my own, enjoy the peace.
I have feel the need of being independent, surviving on my own ability, and pushing myself to the limit.
It all seems very exhilarating to me, the notion of growing up and all.
At these stage its very ambiguous for me, i feel neither young nor grown up at times.
Sweet seventeen sounds interesting, but this is a phase that i feel must be the most difficult for me.
Entering adulthood is just a thin line away, and it means greater burden.
Can i really take on the challenge?
Sometimes they said that we should all stop looking too far ahead in front, it'll only scare us.
Its better to take each step at a time and living at the present well.
I'm living all the three, past, present and future, all these while.
Couldn't seem to break out of it.
But now i've thought it through.
I dont agree in not looking far ahead, but that we should at least get a glimpse of it, let it set as our propeller, for living in the present moment.
So now the thought of adulthood is entirely too enticing,
i am going to fight for it.
And now i got to put in hard work.
Not in control?
Never gonna let it happen...
