Death - 10:50 AM, 14/2/2011

Death is a such a strange and sombre occurence. When we enter this world through birth, we come into it crying our lungs out and in contrast those  that receive us, do so with joy and laughter. Ironically though, When we leave this world, we are usually silent but those that send us off are the ones that are left crying.

Such is the finality of death. But put into perspective, life is a bit pointless considering the end. We spend all our lifetimes acquiring educational qualifications, amassing wealth and trying to make it and yet when we die, we leave it all behind and there begs the question..why do we live? Does the end justify the means? Would we have the zeal to live if death were non existent?

GoodBye - 11:48 AM, 25/10/2010

The saddest thing one can ever go through is the loss of someone you so dearly care about and love. Somebody you hold dear and treasure a great deal...either through death, difference of opinion, distance, fear or simply due to pride...The latter being the most painful of all.

But it's a process we all go through at some point in our lives. We hope, pray and just wish that things would be back to normal...In the end, when that does not happen, and all is said and done, we  get to say goodbye. Albeit reluctantly, we still have to let go...Painful as it might be, life still must go on for We cannot live our lives always being afraid of the next goodbye, for chances are, they are never going to stop.

I guess the trick lies in understanding as to whether the goodbye is a good thing, a chance to make a fresh start or merely a road leading to nothing but regrets.  After all, the grass is not always necessarily greener on the other side. Parting is such sweet sorrow, and not every story has a happy ending.

Choices - 7:38 AM, 1/12/2009

Life always screws us up or throws shit pile at us but what matters in the end is what you choose to make of it.  Whether you choose to make manure out of it or wear the stink, to high heaven, is totally up to you. But regardless of the choice made, be happy and learn to live with it.

Today, I choose to stop and ponder about the fickleness of life. Life in itself is always an uncertainty, as is the future. But regardless of that, I choose to be bold enough to inspire change and to stand for change...If I can think it, then I surely can and will do it.

I choose never to put my happiness on hold, but rather enjoy and live my life now.  I choose to be happy, to grow, to give without reservations and most of all learn to live by the choices so far made.  But above all, I choose life, to be a better person than I was yesterday and to exert myself more as to realise my full potential

Choices define and shape who are are....Make the right choices and be the person that you are destined to be. Like Billy Graham once said, "We can never truly face life until we face the fact that it can be taken away from us." 

Journey - 9:34 AM, 25/11/2009

A mish mash of thoughts criss cross through my mind as I look at the blank piece of paper that lays before me. Memories at play and Pen in hand as I begin to narrate the journey that once was...Journey through the highs and lows of life....A journey that spans across three decades filled with hope, despair, joy, sorrow and a plethora of varied emotions.

Go back I must, to the very beginning....a start so shrouded in mystery that my mind can fathom not....but try I must, for am on a quest, not only to establish my place in society, but also to quench this undying thirst in me as to what my true destiny and purpose in life is.

Life's a ........... - 1:01 PM, 16/11/2009

Frustation coursing through every inch of my being tearing away at the very basis of my hopes and dreams for a better tomorrow. Frustation not from within but without. So much rage and negative energy pelt up as a result..........wanting to be more than I am, but efforts resulting to futility..nothing abounds but hopelessness and despair.

Despair from being looked down on and overlooked as well...Hopelessness as a result of being surrounded by ignorance potrayed by others of my ilk, who seem hell bent to be overcome by their stupidity and crass hallucination of self worth.  Hopelessness from wanting more but ending up with less every day.

But then again....tomorrow is a new and hopefully better day devoid of all the negativity .....Just have to wait and see.........
