why is our dearest blog ALWAYS stagnant?!?!?!?!?! blog people!!!
hmmm... i've decided that i will try to at least blog here once a week. so people, do likewise ok? i really think we are slowly slowly drifting further and further away from each other.
i've got many gan chu after reading an email from wei jie about cherishing relationships. here's a few quotes i thought was rather meaningful...
'Too many of us stay walled up because we are too afraid to care too much... for fear that the other person does not care as much, or even at all.'
why cant we give without asking for anything in return? must there be a balance between the 'give and take'? cant we expect nothing in return when we care for a person? why must the other party care as much for you as you care for them?
'We tell lies when we are afraid... afraid of what we don't know, afraid of what others will think, afraid of what will be found out about us. But every time we tell a lie, the thing we fear grows stronger.'
sometimes i wonder too. why do people lie when they know it is wrong. is it really because we are afraid of the unknown consequences once the truth is out? or is it just the easy way out of a sticky situation? humans are just weird. they know for that you need to lie at least another time just to cover up for the one lie you have just said. so it is two lies all together. and the fear just grew stronger doesnt it? so, why the need to lie in the first place? isnt honesty the best policy? i really wonder...
'Life is all about risks and it requires you to jump. Don't be a person who has to look back and wonder what they would have done, or could have had.'
i agree with this. to add on, 'you will regret the things you never do instead of things that you have done.' so do realise all the crazy dreams you have. it would make a difference in your life many years down the road. when you are old and frail and sitting in your rocking chair, these are the memories that will make you smile.
'What would you do if your best friend died tomorrow(choy!!!!) and you never got to tell them how you felt?(even if it is that you don't care anymore)'
'You might be best friends one year, pretty good friends the next year, don't talk that often the next, and don't want to talk at all the year after that. So, I just wanted to say, even if I never talk to you again in my life, you are special to me and you have made a difference in my life, I look up to you, respect you, truly cherish you, most of all I CARE about friends.'
this is just what i want to tell all of you. i love you guys and i care a hell lot about all of you! you guys will be my friends for life. this is a promise. i hope that when all of our hair have gone grey and our skin wrinkled, we will still be seated around each other and crap our day away like we always do.
those were the days... choir comm '03... the sweetest memories... the bestest buddies...
