When perfect kisses are not desirable.

Got this off the net about this guy with OCD expressing spoken poetry.

Theres much slamming about whether it is poetry or not. I think, who cares if it rhythms or follows a b b a a b b a or not. As long as it touches your heart it is literature.

For many, it is the last few lines, for me its:

When I turn the lights on and off and on and off (repeat multiple times) she close her eyes and imagine that the days and nights were just passing in-front of her.

How can it be a mistake, when I don’t have to wash my hands after I touch her?

She could run away from this and I just can’t. I can’t go out and find someone new bcos I always think of her.

She was the first beautiful thing I ever got stuck on.

I want to wake up every morning thinking about the way she holds her steering wheel. How she turns shower on like she’s opening the safe, how she blows out candles, how she blows out candles, blows out candles, blows out candles…

 

In as much as I dont like to study literature or understood the need to study it, I still cant run away from the romanticist in me…

Associates

Prov 12: 26
‘The righteous should choose his friends carefully, for the way of the wicked leads them astray.’

A Person is known by the friends they keep.
No matter what we say we are, it’s our associations that define us.
We attract people like ourselves, to ourselves.
Our friends verify who we are.
We should choose friendships that elevate us.
Friends who help us rise are friends indeed.
Those ‘friends’ who pull us down are not friends at all.

Be Kind

Be_Kind  Freaks_Need_Love_Too

 

Got reminded of the “Even the freaks need love’ picture above a couple of weeks ago. Actually used it through some of the difficult times and of course in the old blog as well. 🙂

Even in the most recent posting of not getting what we want.

I think it still resounds in everyday live.

 

While we go out there with all the good that we have, or absent-mindedly forgot about the -ves that we embodied and manifest, we often forgot about it. We dont necessary notice that perhaps people dont see what we see as good as good.

 

and again I’m screening, everybody has a different deck of cards from God, everybody experience a different thing the past hour compared to you did.

 

While I may not be able to empathized and understand what they have went through, “Be kind to unkind people, they need it the most”. “Even the freaks need love too.”

The List

Chinese-Passage-Iris

Image kinda small here, download it here

The last 2 paragraph translated with my limited mandarin capabilities:

Always remember, never put a weight on people’s love and emotions. Because what you see as hard and difficult  might be very easy and simple for them to get through. What you see as incompatible, they don’t really care about. There is no compatibility in love and emotions. There is only suitability. Not everyone can find that desired one, but everyone will come upon that suitable one. When we come upon that, all the complicated list of requirements would be discarded. Noise would quieten down, become simple, and no list or requirement will suffice to qualify them. You don’t need effort or tricks to hang on to him, and he would leave you neither.

 

Standards and requirements are prepared for the one you do not love, when you chance upon someone that makes your heart beat, the standards are not standards anymore. There is no reason or rhythm to it, like you have no idea why someone would have you up and about for so many years,  those emotions and feelings have no reason. You love her, but you don’t know why.

Long Time

Patience.

James 1:4

 

Wah… I think this is a very long season of learning and understanding Patience.

But I think with the new lessons, comes the new provision to get through.

 

I never use to need to wait at all, I usually get what I want, when I want it. Or I’ll just go out and get it.

But this season, it doesnt seem to be so.
Everything is just long suffering, slow, and refusing to arrive. and as it, its not within my control. 😀

 

I was quite “oky…” with a friend who always tell me, “its okay, slowly, we have a long time to learn that. we have a long time to do this, we have a long time to do that.” I always wanted to pull my hair out.

Cos seriously if we dont treasure now, or make plans for things to happen, what happens when its gone? What happens if someone just pass away, what happens if its a fleeting moment?

Obviously the person is much older than me.
Guess thats the problem with people of my generation. We want it fast, we want it now.

 

My dad’s Class 5 Driver’s license is 34years now.

A country is established by people’s work experiences (and innovations of course), not someone’s 3mins excitement.

A family with children is established based on a relationship of 2 that has lasted and will continue to last.

Knowledge and understanding is gained on years of reading and learning.

The light bulb is invented after not once, twice, thrice or even 4 times of failure, but multiple times, through a long period.

A good broth takes hours to brew.

 

I realize, a lot of things, needs time to prove itself, a lot of things need time to come true.

 

As Pst Phil pointed out in Impatience

BUT, James 1:3 declares that the time to exercise patience is exactly when you dont want to – when you’re under pressure.
If you develop patience and become great at waiting and coping and putting up with … everything … you will be “complete and entire, lacking in nothing’ (verse 4)
