where your love has always been enough for me.

another lyrical posto, off one of my old faves,
'home' by daughtry. it's a shoutout to anyone
out there that sometimes feel the way i do.

at times i feel alone, in terms of the decisions
i made, in terms of the life i'm living, where
not everyone will agree to, or understand.

so here's a shoutout to all of you out there.

label of the day.

this miaw might look old-fashioned.

but that makes him that much more adorable.

 
in this fast-paced and instant world of ours,
i don't see being old-fashioned as an issue.
to me, old-fashioned is being respectful.

old-fashioned is taking the time to build
and nourish and cherish things or people.
old-fashioned is taking the time to read,
or taking the time to write and think.
old-fashioned is about respecting tradition,
and seeing it as a virtue instead of a barrier.
old-fashioned is about looking at the long-term,
rather than instant or short-lived gratification.
old-fashioned is putting in a bit more effort
in order to achieve something meaningful.

old-fashioned is something special that lasts.

so i wouldn't worry when people starts labeling
or thinking of us as being old-fashioned.
matter of fact, to me, it's a compliment.

i'd pick being old-fashioned any day. hihi.

somedays i can be a bitch.

another lyrical posto, from the fantastically
catchy 'pretty girl' from maggie lindemann.

self-wisdom of the day.

off tumblr's words-of-emotion.

i quote;

"...you're not the same person you were
a year ago, a month ago, or a week ago.
you're constantly changing; experiences
don't stop. that's life..."

i disagree.

i am still the same smart, awesome and
funny person i was a year, month, week,
and hell, even a day ago, you know that?

ok fine, maybe now i'm just cuter than before.

i take it back. i agree wholeheartedly now. LOL

erm ok, no thanks.

"...become your own boss today!..."

yup. that's what all these 'why be stuck in
an office job-you should be a zillionaire-
you can travel the world' articles tell you.

be my own boss? are you kidding me?!!

knowing myself, i'd probably annoy myself
to death, because not only would i want my
work to be done quickly, i would want it to
be correct, executed way ahead of time,
with results way better than prognosis,
analysis done after the successful job,
with documentation done for future reference.

...with correct grammar. and nice colours as well.

see? i'd make the worst self-boss EVER.

just expect you.

be ok with yourself. like this meow.

 
imagine two people looking in their mirrors.

one, a normal villager, living in a small shack,
livelihood being a fisherman, farmer maybe.
surrounded by family members every day.

the other, a high-flying worker, living a
luxurious life in the big city, surrounded by
fancy friends, houses, cars, all sorts of things.

now, who do you think is happier?

if you think of the initial possibilities,
it could be the villager, because of the person
being close with family and loved ones daily.
but it could also be the city worker right?
because the person seems to be successful.

but then again, maybe both of them are unhappy.
one might struggle to support the family, and the
other might only have possessions but not love.

but then again, BOTH of them might be happy.
because they both might be living the lives that
they always dreamt about, and have worked for.

my point is, we shouldn't care if one is happier
than the other. the thing we should be looking at
and hoping for, is that both of them are happy.

secondly, this is the danger of living your life
based on other peoples' expectations and opinions.
who cares if both of them doesn't fit in OUR
idea of what success and happiness SHOULD be.
as long as they are happy, that's all that matters.

so now i turn to you.

when you look in the mirror, you shouldn't be
expecting to see someone who is unhappy because
you haven't met other peoples' expectations, but
you should be expecting to see someone who is
honest to oneself, and who is perfectly ok with it.

just expect you.

now THAT, is something we'll both be happy about.

you got much closer than i thought you did.

one of my all time favourite rock songs,
"rest in pieces" by saliva.
