are your eyes this big whenever you see food?
and go
om nom nom nom nom
dont we just love eating? well. do we live to eat or we eat to live? that is the question. so much food everywhere. you cant stop yourself from eating. if only.. if only eyh? if only you could just eat without even growing. silly bastard hormones. they actually make us grow. well you know what they always say. we are what we eat. do you agree? i aint no professional specialist who gives advices on what to eat and what not to eat. i guess it is true though. it seems like the generation nowadays aren't aware with what they eat. you cant blame them can you? the food looks too tempting. those fried chicken thigh and drumsticks. those delicious fried noodles. 1 kilo burger. mmhhmm. nyummy. that thick chocolate mousse cake. omgah. dont it taste so good? everyone's busy now with their own thing. 24 hours a day sounds long but it isnt enough is it? everyones on the road already by 6am sending their kids to school and off to work by 8.30am. adults will only be end their work by 5.30pm and pick kids up from school say half past six? thats like almost dinner time. sense the obvious no? by the time they reach home everyone feels tired. hence, everyone buy their food home to eat. whatever food that can be served fast. gahh! were all rushing for time now arent we? so much to do so little time. we are what we eat. so yah. we do need to have a balance diet. its been awhile since i last touched my science or biology book. we used to learn the 7 classes of food and what happens to us if we are lack of them and the vitamins.such a very long long time.
have you ever asked yourself how often do you pray in a day? how often do you go to church? how often do you actually spend quality time with God and talk to Him? its easy for us to find time to talk with our family and our friends. its easy for us to hold our mobile phones 24/7 to text and talk on the phone for endless hours. have we ever wondered if it was easy to do so why cant we do that as well to God? we always take Him for granted huh? i have to admit; i take Him for granted. i remember during my highschool days i had strong faith in Him but now? where have my faith gone to? we take Him for granted that when we're happy we tend to forget Him and ignore Him. however, we seek for His help whenever we feel upset, down or whenever we are in trouble. how shallow our minds are dont you think? i quote Elizabeth Gilbert,
“There's a reason we refer to "leaps of faith" - because the decision to consent to any notion of divinity is a mighty jump from the rational over to the unknowable, and I don't care how diligently scholars of every religion will try to sit you down with their stacks of books and prove to you through scripture that their faith is indeed rational; it isn't. If faith were rational, it wouldn't be - by definition - faith. Faith is belief in what you cannot see or prove or touch. Faith is walking face-first and full-speed into the dark. If we truly knew all the answers in advance as to the meaning of life and the nature of God and the destiny of our souls, our belief would not be a leap of faith and it would not be a courageous act of humanity; it would just be... a prudent insurance policy.”
love. a four letter word with a huge ginormous feeling. oh yeahh! what is love? who do you love? Elizabeth Gilbert says: "People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.” through my perspective it really is difficult to define the word love. try to google the definition for love. too many definitions and non of them actually is right. i mean its also a feeling which is quite difficult to describe but when you do fall in love only then you will know. others say love hurts. why love hurts? its not love that hurts us. we allow the person whom we love to hurt us. thats why some say love hurts. love doesnt hurt. without love, theres loneliness. what hurts most? loneliness or love? when a person just broke up from their relationship they tend to blame love. you cant blame a wonderful thing. imagine the world without love. imagine a family without love. yes we do argue. in relationships. friendships. siblings. it is because of love we forgive. am i right? whats worst? we tend to blame love because we felt rejected. we loose the person we love. sometimes we gotta be mature and open up our minds and hearts to face reality; love is the only thing that covers up all the pain and makes us wonderful again. its funny how the newbies handle their relationship especially at a very young age. they tend to break up due to some silly little mistake or fight. oh gosh! sometimes you just wana wake them up and slap them so they'll realise. being in a relationship isnt easy. thats one of the most important thing a person has to know before committing themselves. a relationship isnt a game where you can pull yourself out just like that. it isnt. why cant we be like the older generations where they seem so faithful with each other and that "the one and only" actually meant so much in their relationship. they had their fairytale and still held strong throughout their thunderstorm whatsoever. now thats a fairytale and a story to tell our dear grandchildren how we held for so long despite the obstacles we actually go through. going through all those obstacles together would make us realise how important we are. sometimes its destiny. sometimes its fate. we dont know actually how a person falls in love with the other. God has plans for us. each and everyone of us. things dont work with one. maybe he has another one waiting for the other. funny how when we get our hearts broken we learn from our mistakes and we learn to stand strong and firm. isnt that our last option? we need to get back up on our feet after a great fall. thats all.
Happiness is the consequence of personal effort. You fight for it, strive for it, insist upon it, and sometimes even travel around the world looking for it. You have to participate relentlessly in the manifestations of your own blessings. And once you have achieved a state of happiness, you must never become lax about maintaining it. You must make a mighty effort to keep swimming upward into that happiness forever, to stay afloat on top of it.”
here's to my lover:
"I’m here. I love you. I don’t care if you need to stay up crying all night long, I will stay with you.
There’s nothing you can ever do to lose my love.
I will protect you until you die, and after your death I will still protect you.
I am stronger than Depression and I am braver than Loneliness and nothing will ever exhaust me.”
