pay it forwards

pay it forwards...... it was a good movie.... for those who dont know what it was about, let me just quickly fill you in.... the whole moral of that movie is that if someone does something for you, rather than just returning the favour to the person, you pay it forwards three times. that way, this world will be a better place......

ok, so now we come back to present.... enough of the movie recap. i have tried and tested this method...... and all i can say is that, when you do good unto others, it feels good..... but this is a risky game..... coz sometimes, the problems are tricky..... and you dont always have the best answers.... especially when it involves a person's life.... but doing something is better than doing nothing..... this is atrap yaar..... if you do something and things go wrong, you feel bad coz you might think its all your fault.... if you dont do anything and something bad happens, you still feel bad coz you didnt do anything to change it when you had the chance.... but oh well, we are all humans right.... no one is perfect.... so what we have here is a tricky situation...... what to do??

any ideas anyone??

best things in life are free

well..... its been a long time since things were what they used to be..... in all this time.... i realised something..... that the best things in life are the ones that are free...... i am taking a whole new approach to life..... changing my ways of thinking that has been influenced in the past by a few people i no longer get on with..... but in the end all it comes down to is this...... live life tension free...... no tension = no jhanjat (mess). this means peace of mind for me..... and no heartache/ sleepless nights/ worrying about how complicated all this shit is.... anyways... as life goes.... its good to change.... its good to see a different side of life.... its great to be boring and not so adventerous.... it keeps me stable.... lets me concentrate on the long term stuff.... i no longer need to worry about 2moro.... thanks to a certain goglu moglu mate of mine.... he knows who he is.... well... so do a few more people actually.... well, anyways.... with huge obstacles in the long run, the future still seems uncertain..... but atleast i now have the time to concentrate on these long term problems.... and hopefully, by the time they get here..... i might have some sort of a solution ready as to how to tackle that problem....... but who knows eh....

lastly..... i would just like to leave you with this beautiful poem i came across.... its really an eye opener.....

Here comes the dawn

After a while you learn
The subtle differences between holding a hand and chaining a soul.
And you learn
That life doesnt mean leaning
And company doesnt mean security
And you begin to learn that kisses arent contracts
And presents arent promises
And you begin to accept your defeats
With your head up and your eyes ahead
With the strength of a man
Not the grief of a child
And you learn to build all your roads on today
Because tomorrows ground is too uncertain for plans
And futures have a way of falling down in mid flight
After a while you learn
That even sunshine burns if you ask too much


So you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul
Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers
And you learn
That you really can endure
That you really are strong
And you really do have worth
And you learn
And you learn
With every failure
You learn

once again...... i have not written this..... i merely came across it and found it really touching.... so i thought i would share it with the readers out there.... whoever you may be....

anyways....

enjoy

On a brighter note, my mid semester break has finally begun.... YAY!! but i wouldnt call it much of a holiday.... got tests and assignments on my first week back..... but oh well.... on saturday.... me and a few mates went out to rangitoto island for a day of trekking and some good clean productive fun.... needless to say.... armed with 2 digital cameras.... plenty of pictures were taken and a lot of monkeying around was done..... so far i only have 200 pics..... (i know.... ONLY!!!) i have posted some of them on bebo.... ill post the rest when i get them..... but man was it fun... we were dead tired at the end of it.... but who cares..... i guess this makes up for not going to gym for a month huh... lol.... oh well.... ill keep posting more as more and more "productive" things happen...
