i'm sure that the title has left many of you wondering which blog i'm taking on this week. well there shan't be any. it's the tail end of my birthday and i would like to take a few moments to share with you the lessons i have learnt in the past year.
a) life is unfair, karma will deal with it: i have gotten into countless situations when i feel unjustly treated and wished that the tables would be turned. well, if you have the patience, life has an interesting way of dealing with things. it always balances out. to whom that much is given, much is expected. if you feel upset because someone else has a lot more than you, much is expected from them in the greater cosmos of life.
b) laugh lots: whether you laugh at yourself or others, laugh. laughter revitalises the self. there are serious moments to life but having the ability to laugh at everything just puts one in a much better mood.
c) love your parents: i cannot even begin to say how blessed i am to have my father. i may not agree with everything he says or does but i respect him all the same. in this day and age, when we count our blessings, we often forget to include our parents because we are too busy with our own achievements. however, do remember that we are who we are because someone decided at conception that you were worth it.
d) fl@me or fr@me: it's about passion and emotions. feel. flame or frame is an expression of extreme emotions but that is what keeps us alive and human. the opposite of love is not hate but indifference. i have a few people in my life that i am indifferent to and i do admit that it is scary. cutting off a person is sometimes necessary but not every moment in life should be a lifeless and indifferent experience.
anyway, enough random musings... i've had a wonderful birthday this year with all the cakes, dinners and a not-too-surprising birthday surprise. however, like i told my friends, this is exactly the way i envisioned my birthday. it's my day but it is a day for me to spend with people who give me value in life.
fash'on... BAM!
