You are busy. So busy that you have no time to gather your thoughts. No time to just stop for a short while. All by yourself to evaluate where you are going and where you are now. You are tired. So tired that at times you just fall asleep the moment you hit the bed. Only to wake up in a flash to face the same old music again.
It made you ponder. Ponder hard. Why the need for all these? Fortune? Fame? Yes. You might be earning more than before. But then you think. Is this really what you want?
It make you try to take a look at yourself. Try to understand yourself more. Just who is this guy in the mirror? Is it the real me? It is ironic when one can understand others well but never oneself.
I for one is trying to find out more about myself. Trying to understand more about this guy I see in the mirror. Trying to know what he really want and how he is feeling now.
From one of my favourite movies, Lost in Translation
Charlotte: I just don't know what I'm supposed to be.
Bob: You'll figure that out. The more you know who you are, and what you want, the less you let things upset you.

Slow and steady does it. I admire it for it spirit, enthusiasm, bravery and determination. Not everyone would dare to move at a slow pace in life when everyone, everything is zooming pass you and threatening to crush you unwittingly. And there it is, moving at its own pace, moving to its own direction and carrying all its burden with it. Slow but steady.

Is it just the weather or is it the sadness that come after all the festivities had went pass us just like a glance of the eye?
I am not sure what is bothering you. All I want to say is, though the journey of life is long and unwinding, it is never going to be lonely as you describe it to be.
There might be times that you feel that you are all alone. Times like these are hard to bear. The only way to go around it is to surround yourself with love. Love from your friends which I am sure that they will not be stingy of. No one should be. For love is the best medication against all forms of sadness there might be out there in this cold harsh world.
Come as you are in front of people you love and who love you in return. No need to build a false wall in front. No need to put on a mask which you want people to see. I, for one want to see the real you. Be it happy, sad or disappointed. I want to be there as a helping hand. As a life buoy if need be.
Take a rest if you must. For the rest will only enable you to walk a further distance before your next pit stop. Hopefully, I will be there at the next pit stop with you.
致公主：
其实并不难
是你太悲观
隔著一道墙
不跟谁分享
您的扑人

Lately, I had been visiting the theater more often. This should be a good sign to me. At least some resemblance of a healthy social life.
One of the films I had watched was I am Legend. Got to say a big thank you to Joan. She had bothered to watch this show with me when most of my friends weren't that interested in it.
In the movie, Will Smith is the only survivor of a man-made catastrophe. A brilliant doctor had found a method to cure cancer by modifying the genetic chain of a virus. Problem is that this miracle cure started to malfunction in a very bad way. It started to turn people into blood thirsty zombies and ripping the whole world apart.
It made me started thinking. How would I react if I was the only one living in this planet we called Earth. Yes. 1 out of 60 billions occupants. No one to talk to. No one who I can care about or who will care for me. All alone. There might not even be God for if he really exist, why would he do this to me? Losing all forms of hope and belief that you had always have.
All I know is that life will be unimaginable. What is there to live for? I had always believe that kinship, friendship and the love we had for our life partner should be the reasons why we want to live. The will to fight for our survival.
The most ironic part is that all these were caused by your fellow human being. Homo Sapiens. The one species deem to be the most intelligent on this planet. Given the right to run this planet and rule over all the other species.
I think what had happened in the movie could be very real. A lot of problems we had are man made anyway. War and global warming are two very good examples that come to mind. Would the animals have wars that will kill their own species by the millions? Would the animals create pollutants that will make Earth an unbearable place to live soon?
Anyway, I don't really like the ending. I think it kinda give out a fake hope. Not wanting to give the ending away. Do watch it if you are interested. It really is not bad a film.
We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

以前我看到朋友哭
我很羡慕
可是我怎么逗我自己
怎么逗我自己
我的眼泪都流不出
总觉得能够哭的朋友都很幸福
能够把满腔的无奈满腔的痛苦让泪水带走
最后是泪水啃在心头流不出
就像要爱却不懂怎么去爱
自己哭过后才明白
流过泪的眼睛将生命看得更清楚
只有真正懂得付出的人才懂得何为哭为何哭
再坚强的心偶尔也会脆弱
心会痛
心也会感动
只有曾经真心付出的人才懂得何为哭为何哭
泪水要记得为真心保留
眼泪别白白地流

Happy New Year!! How had your New Year been? Fun I hope. Well, I spent my eve in front of my pc with a group of friends playing Dota. I know this may sound boring but I think it suit me just fine. Staying at home allow me to reflect on what I had done for the past year and also to think ahead of what I want to do in 2008. Plus the fact that Dota is free and allow me to have my own personal space rather than squeezing with tons of other people make it more appealing.
To be honest, 2007 had not been that fantastic to me. I think I had grown up quite a lot. Losing a close of friend of mine and also having a close friend of mine doing something which I never thought he. All these seem to be like a medicine helping me to grow and be strong. Things happen for a reason. Problem is that we might not be able to understand each reason behind it.
Like why did God had to take away someone so young and capable? Why did someone close to me had to tell a lie so blatant that I were the last one to find out? Why is it that I had always try my best to be nice to everyone but this do not seems to be the case for others?
Recently finish reading The Kite Runner. It's a very touching book and there are a number of phrase in it that I like. To quote from the book :
The ending was all that mattered. What all wanted to know was the ending. Did the Girl in the film find happiness? Did the guy in the film fulfill his dreams and got the girl he had always wanted? Was there happiness in the end, they wanted to know.
If someone were to ask me whether the story of Hassan, Sohrab and me ends with happiness, I would not know what to say. Does anybody?
After all, life is not a film. Life goes on, unmindful of beginning, end or crisis, moving forward like a slow, dusty caravan of nomads.
The above sentence seem to summarize life. Yes. One can be sad, unhappy and wondering just what's wrong with the world around them. No matter how much time they spend in wallowing in self pity, life goes on. Life do not care if someone had left you. Life would not stop just because it is painful to move on. Life will not stop even if you want it to. We just got to move on. Treasuring our memories, loved ones and looking forward to what's lie ahead.
I am looking forward to a better 2008. Hope that you guys will have a great year ahead too.
