You'll never really know someone until you spend enough time with that person.
And people do change, with moods, situations and time.
Its an investment.
So, invest wisely..

What's the point of life if risk is just a board game,
You roll the dice but you're just hoping the rules change..

I shouldn't be,
But I am..
Missing you
is how I feel.

Groovin' to the tunes

Carved, Trimmed.

~ Mistakes that I've been through
Some tougher, Some rougher
And some hurting more than others
But they carve into me,
Smooth out the corners
Accentuate the fluidity
Create new astonishing lines..
Some worth remembering,
Some worth forgetting,
Most, worth experiencing ~

As a multinational country, with limited resources, should the government "invest" in uniting ONE particular race only, or unite all nationals?

My country is choosing to do the former. I am disappointed.

I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did,
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with

I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing

A not-so-disguised blessing

I am counting my blessings.
At times of despair, there are things I can be happy and grateful about.
I am thankful, extremely thankful, for some consistencies in life for the past few months.
I feel blessed to have the major aspect hitherto kept in perspective.
Despite all the crap surrounding me, I'd like to think that there is something I can still smile about.

How does one show appreciation?

It was not good enough.
It came crashing.
And he showed me the truth and light.
In the worst possible way.

The deeper sorrow carves into your being,
the more joy you can contain..
- K. Gibran
