Walk on by...

Try looking at the bright side of things, though it needs a little more pushing. Sometimes when we are being faced with choices, even though the choices can lead to a better path, might not necessarily means it is an easy as walking through the park.

The park needs to be cleared of weeds and infestations. In the end, it will give us a satisfaction, in a way at the end of the road a bright new day, but then, is it the real path that we are supposes to take.

Choices, that we have made, and chosen that particular path, somehow in the middle of clearing the path, we found out why the path was not cleared in the first place. Perhaps it is because there is a hidden trap beneath all the hidden weeds, or perhaps we are not strong enough to clear them. But we are half way through them. What shall be done? Go back? Can we?

If we go on forward, does it make is really want to see the end of the road that brings light? Or just the fact that since we have taken the path, we should just walk on and not bothered whether it fulfills our needs.

Hence, the path we choose when it is wrong, we face severe consequences out of the rewards that we gain, but at the expense of being happy.

So here we hope that by clearing the path, there is a crossroad that perhaps would be easier to walk, but then again, it won’t be that easy to find as it takes time.

Mistakes are made sometimes when choosing the wrong path, again we try to walk on and see if we can find another route.

Walking on a bumpy road

“Go for it! Don’t wait! Don’t sit there and do nothing! Seek for the thing you want.”

These are the words some of the people told me when they finished reading my blog. To set the record straight, I am. I am not waiting, nor that I am just desperately looking. It is just the pace that some of us take to go looking for something that we want.

There are some issues that I would like to acknowledge to the very few people who are concerned about my negative blogs. I agree that I write sometimes, the saddest, and in a way asking people for some pettiness, but I only write when I feel frustrated, sad or maybe bewildered by some events. It is seldom that I do write something of the category of “Happy Thoughts”. As a matter of fact, I don’t even write to tell people that I am happy. They can see me if I am happy but never in this blog. Perhaps it is this reason that most of the time that people think that I am a sad, negative and a pessimistic man.

Let’s shed some light on this topic. First of all, it is not that we are not looking for love or happiness, we are, but should we be desperately looking? It is just that when we find it, does it guarantee that it will work out fine? Answer, NO! There is no such guarantee that when we look for a person, that the love and happiness is returned when we are giving. It is a trial and error. The sad thing is that when we try and try, and it fails, it gets very frustrating that we just don’t want to go looking, but just let it come by itself. If it happens, let it happen, if it does not, are we going to curse? Who should we blame? There is no one to blame, so life goes on.

And even if we are desperately seeking, aggressively going after the other person, what do you think the other person would feel? “This person is psycho” might crop up in their mind. Let’s reverse the role, should the person desperately and aggressively goes after us, do we not feel that the person is a little cuckoo and you would wish this person just get out of your life?

The right to have the love and happiness is not only from ours, but it is also gained from the other person. If we don’t have that, we walk on alone. We are not the one who has the say in everything, but has to be a 2-way communication. We don’t have the right to tell what the person should do, nor should the other to tell us what we should do. We have the right to choose, so does the other party.

Yes, the road sometimes can be bumpy and dark; sometimes the road is easy to walk like a cool sunny day. And hence, some might feel the journey that I walk, the question is… “How long are we going to enjoy the cool sunny day?” An answer to this, no one knows. We have ups and downs. So perhaps these few months, my road was rather bumpy, and yet, I still walk on.

Journey...

We grow among the others
We grow to see others paired
We grow to have no one bothers
We grow to be more despaired

To seek the other’s approval
To seek the other’s love
We are asked for approval
We are asked for love

What we seek in others
The others seeks in us
Though some make it through
Some has yet to establish

We often question why
We wept and sigh
We look at the sky
We hope that light draws nigh

The turbulence of a journey
Has yet to settle in the sea
We seek to bury bad memories
Several we seek is in the sea

Many of times we try
Yet some we have failed
Hurt may come and we cry
Remain on while we are battered

The journey is always there
Either face it with misery
Or face it with care
It is ours to choose if we fancy

The cycle that rotates
The experiences we gain
Good and bad we possess
Hope we won’t fall hard again

Hurt will always be there
And sometimes we are in despair
Hurt is what we have to bare
Ensure our heart will be repaired

Envious eyes we can never have
As our time is yet to come
When we are in their place
Experience they have will be the same
