Hello blog

Haven’t been communicating with you for quite sometimes. Have I missed anything? I am not sure. May be I may have missed the possiblity of creating ripples in my life … like how a drop of water affects the movements of the lake. But then again, I have nothing to write recently. My inspiration has not really stopped its flow but I’ve kinda let it flow internally only. I’m not sure this is good or bad, cause basically I don’t care.

Well, how’s life so far from then to now, if one may ask me … as if anyone bothers but then again, I bother :p … so I’ll say. Life has been pretty interesting. Life has always been interesting actually it’s just whether you notice it or not, life is always by my side showing me more days by days as long as I’m not blinded by routines and others. You’ll be amazed in one day how many times you actually live your life for others instead of for yourself. You may justify that it’ll be for the better. You may say it’s because you care and also this is who you are. I will not argue that. But being a convert, I believe in living for yourself and love first only yourself. As when you are taken care of, the rest will follow.

Even though I’m a new believer but doing it is another issue. It’s still hard to love myself at times despite of all the blessings that surround me, I - like any greedy eyes, still keep a look-out at what possibilities life may bring to me.

Well, nothing is wrong with possibilities. It creates more room to grow and expand one’s horizon. Possibilities triggers hope and the knowing that one can achieve more than they have ever thought. But, with a shaken ground of being who you really are, possibilities may be a nest of disappointments and blind expectations. Being something whom you are not just because you think it’s good for you, but may be after all those are just illusions.

It’s funny at times I think that life is indeed quite simple. Be it with lots of no money at all, life still can be simple. But yet, we just love to complicate things. I believe most of us know how to simplify our lives but I can bet that most of us secretly crave for some complexities that they think may excite their lives and bring them to new experiences. Irony.

I’m not sure I see any point or destination to my current writing. But like those wisemen said, it’s the journey that matters.

And I’m just wishing that everyone is able to live their lives by simply being themselves. Stand firm to your principle and when you look back, despite of all the attempts to be swayed, you are still standing. No one owns your life unless you give them the power to. Then life will really be worth it.
