What does the colour of blue remind you of? Emotions? Nature? Gender colour?
What exactly does blue signify? Peace? Tranquility? Or melancholy? Tragedy?
Does the colour blue play a big part in your life? Does any colour not play a part in your life?

Blue, to me, signifies both peace, tranquility and melancholy, sadness. It probably depends on one’s mood?
Blue signifies the sky, the sea, water, even light. Which significance plays the biggest part?

I would choose the sea, the magnificent sea, the only thing that exposes the horizon. It’s the only place where the mjestic sun can be seen fully, and yet it’s also the only place the full golden sun can been seen cut in half, with its bottom half under the horizon. And it’s the only place where the blazing sun doesn’t fully blaze, where the sun doesn’t hurt your eyes and you can view it all so clearly.

But is the sea all blue?

Have you ever felt yourself growing up? Who wouldn’t have? Haha, what a stupid question!

People grow up, definitely. Not only physically, but mentally too! To me, probably growing up mentally and emotionally would be more important than physically, would you think? Haha, afterall, who would want to grow up looking older?

The process of growing is often unseen and unfelt, until you look and think back on certain things. I myself have experienced growth. In the past, I have never failed to not understand the reason for sharing, the reason of being humble, the reason of so many things essential in life today. Thinking back, those small or even big actions I made seemed really child-like. So did I actually grow up?

Does one grow up, becoming more matured, sensible and understanding? Or is it simply one’s body changing? One’s mind changing? And not how he analyses things as he grows up, but simply a miraculous procedure of thought?

What would you think?

p.s Home desktop still unable to access!!

Have you ever felt that distance of unendingness?
That you’ll never reach your destination - a distance of a few metres, or even your dreams and goals?

I have. Be it because I was tired, and was walking home. Even 2 blocks away, I felt eternity, I felt I wouldn’t reach my home. But somehow, at the back of my mind, there was a voice, shouting out, ‘Eventually you’ll get there!’

And eventually, I did.

Have you ever that feeling?

Does your mood affect your choice of music?

Music Changes Everything?

Physical pain? Mental pain? Emotional pain? Excruciating heat that burns – a pain?

Then how do you classify the various kinds of hurt and pain? All events that would cause physical pain and force one to go through extreme difficulty? Or events at a point of time where the human mind is put to test? Both?

Would mental pain result in physical pain? In a recent speech I was supposed to write for a school assignment, ‘Teenagers slashing their wrists.’, I mentioned that many a times, teenagers do so (slashing their wrists) just for the sake of doing so, because no one cares for hem, no one empathises them, no one understands the different events that’s taking place in their own world, in their own lives. Isn’t that an example of how mental and emotional pain an lead to physical hurt, physical pain? Or it can’t be a pain because slashing their wrists would make them feel better? Does it even make them feel better? Or is it just so that people can show attention to them finally?

What is pain? As 2 descriptions explained by Dictionary.Com:
1. Physical suffering or distress, as due to injury, illness, etc.
2. Mental or emotional suffering or torment.

Does this imply that by only going through a ‘traumatic’ situation that one will then feel pain? Then slashing of one’s wrists wouldn’t be classified as a pain, if the party enjoys it and feels that it brings satisfaction?

Would one actually want to go through pain, after all, many a times through going through pain, you get a step further in your life journey. Is it necessary to go through pain? Would one, for the sake of having a life experience, be joyful that he is going through a certain kind of pain, since he knows that after going through it, he’ll become a better learned, a more resilient person?

Probably pain exists in the mind? Would you think so, because that’s what many people tell me. When you do not think of it, you wouldn’t feel the physical hurt. Just like an ‘execution’ carried out somewhere around the earth, my teachers once said, that the prisoner would be blindfolded, and then an artificial cut would be ‘imposed’ inflicted on them. After awhile, a dripping tap sound would be heard, and the prisoner would have the impression that blood is dripping from the cut. And after some time, he died because of the ‘pain’. Now, was that physical pain? I do not think so, but obviously his mind told him that he was painful and thus it shut the whole person’s body off just so as to discontinue the ‘pain’ experienced.

Do comment if how the experiment I explained was false or in any way incorrect because it came out from the back of my mind and I really couldn’t be extremely confident of my words.

But anyhow, how would you percieve pain?

If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t change it, change your attitude. Don’t complain.

 

Would you be someone who can handle change? This term ‘change’ ranges from simple change of where your usual stationery is put to a whole lifestyle change. But what exactly causes change?

Does change mean making life better, making life easier? How far can one go to handle change positively and wholeheartedly? Would anyone be discouraged just for the fact that he has to change the way he was doing some things?

Many a times, people often question themselves, ‘Was I actually doing something wrong all this while?’, when they have to go through change. Many of them wonder whether they are on the right track, many of them question their capabilities upon having to go through change.

But should one feel discouraged and dismayed after finding out that they have to go through a certain change about something they’ve aways been doing for a period of time?

So how much of this term ‘change’ is positive. Is it totally negative too?? Can it be of both?

How do you percieve change?

Would you be someone who believes in ‘Deja Vu’, that it’s actually a ‘dream come true’ and not a ‘psychological’ problem? Not that ‘Deja Vu’ is a psychological problem or whatsort, but a least you see a word ‘Psychology’ in the definition on Dictionary.Com:

1. Psychology. the illusion of having previously experienced something actually being encountered for the first time.

Would you think that having illusions upon experiences is a problem, a psycholoical problem?

But who exactly knows for sure, that whether or not ‘Deja Vu’ is a ‘Psychology’ issue, or simply a dream come true? This is definitely regardless of what scientists or whoever studies Deja Vu has said about it.

Deja Vu, Deja Vu, isn’t it so amazing, that feeling of reliving a significant (or completely insignificant) happening the second time? Wouldn’t you think that it may actually be somesort of a sign? Probably a chance to do good, a chance to change for the better, simply a second chance. Probably you get the opportunity to change whatever thing that shouldn’t be. Then in that sense, you become a ’superhero’ to ’save the day’! Lol.

Or would you (w/ or w/o still) think that it has got to do with a psychological factor, that it’s actually an illusion, that somehow you think that you’ve gone through that certain happening before? That you’re crazy. Haha.

So what exactly is Deja Vu?

p.s have been out of internet source recently, sorry for the late entries!

p.p.s.s (or is it p.s.p.s??) whatever the case, I would want to highlight about the point I said that Deja Vu may be some sort of a sign. Just want to add tha probably it’s a second chance to say a simple ‘I Love You’ to the ones you love, probably it may signal the last time saying that to someone so dear in your life. Haha, weird, I’m always stressing on treasuring the ones around you, but seriously, wouldn’t you think it’d be the biggest regret in the world to not let your beloved ones know that you indeed love them before they leave this earth? Think about it. Hehe.

 Would you believe that everybody’s conscience strike immediately? Would you think that it’s possible for it to strike at a time when it’s too late?

Conscience indeed, can strike anytime. Times when you don’t expect, even times of coincidence. But do people truly embrace this ‘conscience’ in them? Do they embrace this life miracle, do they embrace this wonderful feeling? Conscience…

Probably conscience strikes immediately, after an impactful event? It’s probably just up to the person do really ‘feel’ it, to really dig deep down into his heart and understand how certain actions made has caused hurt to certain people. In other words, it’s really up to how much one can empathise.

Would you be mindful to those whom you’ve made actions on? Just simple acts, even to help your friends, could arise dramatic changes in someone else’s views of you. You could have done something you thought was right, but others may not think so.

Would you wait till something’s over that you start reminiscing on how you could have actually made it better? Would you start to regret on certain unmade decisions and actions that could have made memories so much more fond? Would you regret not saying that last goodbye?

I have always had this thought. Especially during occasions where I have to depart to somewhere else, be it in the same country, or even the same district. I’ve always have had this thought. What if I didn’t say a proper ‘goodbye’ to the ones I love? And to make matters worst, what if when I’ve left, something happened to them, and that I can never be together with them anymore? I would be haunted with not the fond memories they’ve created, but with the sense of guilt, the sense of how I should have had that last hug with them before departing, of how I should have said a simple yet heartfelt ‘I Love You.’

Because many people often expect what they themseleves expect when they return home. Many people expect everyone to still be safe and healthy when he comes home from the States, or even to expect his loved ones to be safe and healthy when he comes home from work. But who knows what could happen the next second? By the blink of an eye, you could hav had someone so dear in your life lost, you could have had someone so dear in your life missing, you could have had lost this significant part of your heart, you could have lost you.

Many a times people take for granted. The simple things in their lives are just so expected that it becomes almost a routine to them. But the moment they’ve lost something, they realise they have had thier lives changed forever. Upon losing somone in thier lives, they start to ponder and regret on why they haven’t had loved them so much more, on why they haven’t shown thatg much of love and concern, on why they haven’t took every single opportunity to celbrate one’s existence, to say ‘I Love You.’

Would you be a one full of regrets to come? No one knows for sure.

Probably our conscience would tell.

Let us celebrate the occasion with wine and sweet words.”

 

But don’t people say that you’ll just be a year older, a year this, a year that? People never want to grow old. Nobody wants to look older, nobody even wants to think older. What makes one enjoy the day they become older then?

The people who celebrates it with them, I suppose? Imagine having your loved ones with you on that day, just celebrating life, celebrating your existence. Don’t you think it’s a magical moment? After all, it only happens once a year.

Birthdays mean many things, birthdays open so many things up too! Birthdays mean meeting your lost loved ones again, birthdays also mean finally being at the age to drink! Haha.

 Birthdays, birthdays, birthdays. All the birthday boys and girls dress up to their best, all the birthday boys and girls await for different things. Young and cute birthday children can’t wait to rip off the thick present wrappers, while the wise boys and girls can’t wait to see who arrives, can’t wait to see who’s here. All the happy things in life.

Birthdays, birthdays! What happy days! Then why are people afraid to hit 50?

Celebrating love, celebrating care and concern, celebrating life, celebrating joy. Most importantly, celebrating with the people in your life who’s made an impact, loved ones, friends, families.

Birthdays… The celebrating of more than just the addition of one physical age, but the celebrating of all the marvelous and woderful things in life. Do you think?
