You fondle my trigger, then you blame my gun


The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.

I guess I must agree. Just like what the Bible says, “Sorrow is better than laughter…it may sadden your face but sharpens your understanding”.

Two quotes support one truth.

Many people refuse to frown even just for a moment. They hate when they see another person lonely. They’d sigh and say, “that’s too dramatic”. But life is full of drama. No matter how hard we deny it.

Am not talking of drama like that in the soaps. Anyone in their right mind can tell it’s a stretching of the truth. That is not the kind of drama I am talking about.

We all get into this state where we suddenly become surly. For a number of reasons we do. Trying to conceal it makes it worse because it’s hard to hide something that is overwhelming you.

Concealers don’t usually work when eye bags are already that prominent. So as our emotion. Sometimes, we just have to let it show.

For the first time, I was able to say something I really do mean inside without inhibitions. But right after I said them, I just had to take them back because I almost forgot that every person has his/her own strengths and weaknesses. There are things and situations that may be easy for someone but not for me. And vice versa.

Guess, there's just really no standard.

Current Mood: A little irritated but doing well.

Allow me to introduce my selves.



I am Me. In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me. Everything that comes out of me is authentically mine, because I alone chose it -- I own everything about me: my body, my feelings, my mouth, my voice, all my actions, whether they be to others or myself.


I own my fantasies, my dreams, my hopes, my fears. I own my triumphs and successes, all my failures and mistakes. Because I own all of me, I can become intimately acquainted with me. By so doing, I can love me and be friendly with all my parts. I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other aspects that I do not know -- but as long as I am friendly and loving to myself, I can courageously and hopefully look for solutions to the puzzles and ways to find out more about me.


However I look and sound, whatever I say and do, and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time is authentically me. If later some parts of how I looked, sounded, thought, and felt turn out to be unfitting, I can discard that which is unfitting, keep the rest, and invent something new for that which I discarded.


I can see, hear, feel, think, say, and do. I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be productive, and to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me. I own me, and therefore, I can engineer me. I am me, and I am Okay.

“Falling in love with someone isn't always going to be easy... Anger... tears... laughter.. It's when you want to be together despite it all. That's when you truly love another. I'm sure of it.”
