Nowadays...

Talking is overrated. Even words. heermmpphhffhhhhhttttttt to that.

Notice nobody ever stops to listen anymore. Nobody reads anymore. Words seem meaningless.

Its sad. Everybody depends on some other outlet to express themselves.

Gone were the days when its better to sit and talk face to face, to catch up with friends about mindless chit chat or curl up on a rainy day with your favourite novel.

I guess that's why when tante comes over we stay up till midnight talking.
Or when mum is upset she'll scream and vent at me.
When dad actually says something to help me out.
Reading a jeffery archer novel till the wee hours.

I cherish those moments.

So "F off" to those who don't understand.

Sometimes a gesture, a smile, a simple hello, an apology can convey genuine emotions which none of you will ever realize because you are so busy looking at the BIGGER picture.

detox: day 5.


I have my vanilla scented candles, I'm taking lots of bubble baths, I'm listening to Coldplay and my cheer squad is always waiting in the wings to provide me daily reminders and pick-me-up-ers.

btw, whoever created the idea of bubble baths and scented candles are a god-send.

Change is inevitable so I'll embrace it. I'll be fine.

Coldplay
Fix you

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse.

And the tears come streaming down your face
Coz' you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
What could be worse?


Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream, down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face and I...


Tears stream, down on your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face and I...


Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you.

gotta love girly girly books ;)

[taken from Divine secrets of Ya-ya sisterhood by Rebecca Wells]

"good god child! what do you mean, "you don't know how to love"? Do you think any of us do know how to love?! Do you think anybody would ever do any-thing if they waited until they knew how to love?!"


and that is why we all still plunge, believe and still fall head over heels into the bottomless pit that we call love. we never know how we're going to end up but we still do it...

gnite. curling up in bed, reading my fave. book is the life.....bliss.

The Reminder

nothing new....something to ponder upon.

PEACE

It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work.

It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart
