hope

Tuesday, November 28, 2006

 

know why God blessed you another morning to wake up? it’s to forget the pains of yesterday and see the chance the new day has brought, to dance and laugh again.  it’s the chance to make up for the wrong things you did.  to see your friends, to love again, to make others feel happy and loved.  you see, its more than just another long day ahead, its God’s way of reminding you that there’s always hope.

“so..what is marriage?”

someone asked me..and if it ever crossed my mind to remarry..it is not a difficult question, really..been there, done that..so i said “no”..but if i will just follow my heart, and not reason with myself, i would answer him with a big, big “YES!” right away..i would love to spend the rest of my life with someone who will love me, it’s just that i want that person to be geared up for things to come (and myself as well)..a proposal is just the start of something enormous, blissful and complicated altogether..once you’re married, you cannot press “backspace”, “delete” or “ctrl + z” to undo it..being married is not just having a piece of paper to prove that you are into it..it is a state of mind that affects your whole life, completes you as a person, and a whole lot more..

 

anyhow, let me enlighten you with what marriage is all about..

are you starting to run out of steam?..

is your memory full?..

are your batteries flat?..

is your fuel tank low?..

is your warning light flickering?..

every so often we all experience an energy crisis..the real reason why you feel a little flat is that secretly, inwardly, you are disappointed..something has not gone according to plan..someone has not honoured a commitment..you are putting a brave face on this..you put a brave face on everything!..but you are smarting..this week’s new moon brings a subtle – but significant – chance to settle a score and even out a rough situation..once this has occurred, you’ll feel a thousand times better..

i was just leafing through a magazine when i’ve come across the horoscope page and it really moved me..lately, i’ve been contemplating on how to go about with my so-called densed life..things aren’t going the way it should be..life moves very fast..it rushes us from heaven to hell in a matter of seconds..blame me for being so ludicrous and willful, how ironic, right?..why can’t i be blissful and gratified??!..why put so much weight in my heart and bear in the end..? the answer..i really have no idea! *sigh*..

when we meet someone and fall in love, we have a sense that the whole universe is on our side..but plainly, it’s not..

love clearly wasn’t made for me and i wasn’t meant for love..

. . .

i never believed in horoscopes..i do read them for fun..this one's really nice though..

the games men play. . .

Tuesday, November 14, 2006

“why can’t they just be direct?” damon syson reveals why he’s messing with your mind..

in the old days, women were often accused of being irrational..”ladies never say what they really think’, men would grumble, accusing their partners of being capricious, flighty and thoroughly unpredictable..making sense of a woman, according to most chaps, was as easy as herding cats..

but as with so many things in modern life, the gender roles appear to have reversed..women-once responsible for mood-swings, mind-games and all-around emotional manipulation – are increasingly keen on cutting out the nonsense, rolling up their sleeves and getting on with a relationship..”these days,” one woman say, “i believe honesty is the best policy..if I meet a guy and like him, I tell him I like him and hope he likes me back..i can’t be bothered with all that “playing hard to get” rubbish anymore..”

what a blessed relief, you might think..unfortunately, in the meantime, men – those straightforward, direct, honest creatures – have transformed into bigger game-players than women ever were..thes days, getting a man to express what he really thinks is like getting a straight answer out of a politician..

the first and most obvious way men play games is by not phoning/texting/turning up when they said they would..admittedly, this is often simply because we are lazy, forgetful and are easily distracted (usually by food, sport, tv, other women etc) but increasingly, men use being frustrating incommunicado as a deliberate ploy to make ourselves seem more desirable..it’s our version of playing hard to get..

in our defense, there is some evidence that suggest that certain women bring out this sort of behavior in men..if a guy gets an inkling that you’re the tricksy, high-maintenance type of gal, he might decide that  pre-emptive strike is in order..he will start playing games first in order to have the upper hand..this is because he read in some silly men’s mag that “in the battle of the sexes, attack is the best form of defense.”
