i remember back in the old days when i used to talk like there is NO tomorrow and laugh as if my end is near.. haha how stupid i looked and how irrational i was.. hay! back then some people see me as someone who is INSENSITIVE.. someone who never took the chance to even apologize to those peope i've hurt... stupid as it may seem, evil as you may see it is BUT THAT WAS WHO IAM..
NOW...i heard someone say that "..this is who iam"... "im just being myself" and it sparked a thought... haha i used to say that same thing.. people love me for "being me" and its funny coz i had some friends whom i never thought will even be part of my so-called 'inner circle'.. although my real friends (bru club in the house! haha) are there to keep me grounded i knew somewhere in the four walls of my former school some of them HATE me... Still i managed to make fun of them, laugh about their 'snappy-ness' (if there is such a word, but i know hi-skool buds will understand this term) :-)... yea. yea! what the hell am i talking about.. haha the bottom line is there is a boundary in screaming to the world that THIS IS WHO IAM.. take it or leave it.. sometimes its not bad accepting who you are and what you stand for but somewhere along your way you will get into situations that doesn't need your 'slogan' in life...
haha :-) i may sound to 'oprah-ish' (whatta?!) haha but really there are times when being so into your self is not THAT GOOD... flaunting into the world that this is ME is not that hrmm awesome coz you'll always get into the point wherein you've hurt someone without even knowing it or u've acknowledged the fact that you've hurt someone BUT you keep on running back to the fact that "THIS IS ME" and if you can't accept it then that is your problem.. *sigh*
been there...
actually, the one who triggered this whole realization is the book.. 'A MILLION LITTLE PIECES' by James Frey.. its an account about a drug addict/alcoholic/criminal who was flown to a Clinic in Minnessota almost dead.. he had a broken nose, almost lost all his teeth, had a hole in his cheek, he seems like deteriorating ALIVE.. anyway, im not yet done with the book but he reminded me of someone.. SOMEONE I KNOW REALLY WELL... ME.. haha :-) although IM NOT AN ADDICT/ALCOHOLIC/CRIMINAL...(okie..) but the way he shoved other people because of his selfishness reminded me of MY SELFISHNESS... being strong-headed... bout being 'IM WHO IAM'...
im not saying you should change.. just be SENSITIVE enough with what you do and say...
a friendly reminder brough to you by: missbodestyne.blogspot.com (hahaha) whatever!!
there are times when i can't wait to see the face of my prince charming YET at the back of my head i know that
it's not yet time to reveal himself coz im still scared of what lies ahead...
knowing that you've made something that made you satisfied is worthy of all the risks put together coz finally
you've done something that gave you achieve self worth..(whatever) haha...
living a life full of hatred is a life not worth living at all...
life is a game, win or lose its how you play that counts...
why can't people just be who THEY REALLY WANT TO BE... *sigh*
love can be the way of your destruction when you don't know how to use it properly...

All you need is already within you, only you must approach your self with reverence and love.
Self-condemnation and self-distrust are grievous errors. Your constant flight from pain and search for pleasure is a
sign of love you bear for your self, all I plead with you is this: make love of your self perfect. Deny yourself
nothing -- glue your self infinity and eternity and discover that you do not need them; you are beyond".~ Sri
Nisargadatta Maharaj
"And remember, my sentimental friend, that a heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much
you are loved by others". Professor Marvel in Wizard of Oz
