Routine

Wondering how many people around us, actually wakes up everyday finding himself feeling so energetic, to face the daily challenges of his everyday life, his routine. I believe that routine will be the practical word to be used, describing everyone's 5 days a week, and the remaining 2 days of the week. Routine doesn't mean boring, and doesn't even mean meaningless. Some people's routine is full of excitement, just that, it is bound to the working hours, lunch hours. Day and day, is like a new exploration, hearts pounding at different pace just to keep up with the hours of exploration. I've always thought, how happy, how great would it be, to wake up everyday to enjoy the the feel of excitement, the feel of satisfaction and the pushing energy of wanting to carry out the routine.

Routine will still be routine, it is still bounded by time, deadlines, factors which build up the walls. The most important thing is, the spaces between those walls, the steps that you can move around. Whether you enjoy the jumping or the running around. Are you happy? Or it is just, doing what everybody's doing, doing what you should do? No feeling at all towards what you're doing? Maybe, try to ask around, how do they find themselves, their lives after doing the same routine for 1 year or 2 year maybe. How many will answer, Great! Fantastic! ? That's why they said that, doing what you like, doing what you enjoy, while able to earn from the interest, is the greatest thing.

For many people, the routine, is just earning a living, facing some challenges, brushing up the skills, moving forward towards another routine. People said, good or bad your working life is, actually determines your life. Life's like that, they said. Keep on finding the routine that you want, if you can't find the best, then people opt for the second best while waiting for the best chance to appear. Somebody said that, don't go for the second best if you can't find the best for your own, as it is considered as a big mistake. How true this statement is, how feasible is it to your life, only you will know.
Anyway, let's not get too worry, if you don't feel the excitement from your routine, yet. :) A change of attitude or a change of opinions, might change the tune. Make your life worthwhile, hope your routines excites!

Memories

Just watched the movie called "Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind"...it says at the cover, "A film for anyone with a past...they'd rather forget." Everyone has his own past, which they will keep for their whole lives, and past which they wish they had never had. This movie, talks about, people suffering with memories that they rather forget and someone there to help erasing the memories, or more specifically, erasing someone from their lives.
Maybe we should be glad, that there's no such technology yet. Part and parcel of our lives, are built up with all those memories, they are all valuable ones. Everything you feel, everything you touch, everyone you met, turn out to be memories stored deep inside of you.

Pain memories..they taught us how to be strong, how to face them, how to handle them. They are like the orange pulps, being left at the bottom of a glass of orange juice, stir it, to bring the memories on to the surface of your mind, and feel the sourness...Sweet memories...you will feel it with your heart, and you will never give it away. You'll smile just when you think about it.

In our whole life, we taste the bitterness and sweetness. You cannot forget that particular memory, cause it somehow affects you, became part of you, and the one who you are today. So why tearing a piece of you away? And make yourself incomplete?
They said that, thinking about how to forget it, actually makes you remember it more, I think it's true. So, why forget, while you have the ability to remember...

Independance

Miss Independant, do guys like miss independant? Girls nowadays tend to be independant, as they say, they don't want to depend on anyone else, especially guys, cause...guys just can't be trusted.. :)) that's what some girls think. Miss independant...hmm, they are for me someone who doesn't need any guy's shoulder to cry on, rest on, don't even need guys to do all those hard chores. They can do anything by themselves, can live on a no-man-island. :) Guys..does someone like that mean no troubles to you, no-fuss, no commitment to take when you're with them, as they can protect themselves and even moving the big rock which blocking her road...? then it will be->Supergirl! :))

It has been instilled in the mind, it's the nature and the norm, that guys are the one who should be the one that stand up for girls, fulfill girls requests. Girls or woman are the gentle formations, and it's the nature and the norm, that girls want to be cared and be treated kind by guys. :P That's one of the many differences between girls and guys and I see that, as a trustworthiness.
I believe that every girls has her strongest side, but they appear to be weak when there's someone to grab hold on to, someone whom they can hang on to. That would be the guys whom they think are protective enough but still caring enough, which is unlike bodyguard type of protection.

As for guys...guys don't like girls who are too independant. They would want to care and it is that something, the kind of feeling of able to take care of someone that should exist when being around with girls. Not the same when being with a bunch of guys. But too much of dependancies will mean troubles to them. And they dislike these as much as the too-independant cases.

So girls, do take note that, too much of relies make a man frown. Guys, your caring means a lot and it does contribute to the definition of "gentleman" in her dictionary!

Confidence

How does your confidence like? Is it like the dominoes lying side by side, with just one single touch on any of the pieces, all the others will collapse? Or is it like a strongly built concrete bridge that never minds the wind blows? I would wish that yours would be the second one. Never in a shaky state and never ever question your confidence. People are born with abilities, but are they born with confidence? Talking about confidence with abilities, I think it is built upon abilities. When a person grows up, along the way, they "realise" the abilities that they have. That they can draw amazingly well, they can sing very well and they are good with maths, and the confidence grows along as they keep on doing well.

When you think that it will be very good if there's a big boost in your confidence. I would like to say, just remember not to let it take over you, as it might have exceed certain level, inevitably leads to ego. You would not want it to become your enemy, where people feel irritated by your ego, initiated by your "top of the world" confidence, right? Confidence should be helping you to perform well, become the energy that drives you towards your goal, but never ever should be turned into the master of ego.

I believe that the confidence relies strongly on a person's persistence and determination. Imagine somebody who does so well in something whereby he gain the confidence as he goes. And then one day, he fails in doing things which he has so much confidence in. The confidence level may plunge to zero just like that, and he feels so despair. But someone with strong persistency will still remain his confidence level and continue doing it with full confidence, never mind the fails. If it happens, don't worry, cause you have your determination and abilities - your driving forces. Renew the confidence right away, refresh yourself, and keep on moving, cause it's not the end yet!
