Being SincereThe dictionary defines sincerity as the quality of being genuine or honest with oneself and with others. We see this in people who reach out to help others voluntarily because they know it is the right thing to do.
One perceives this quality in anyone who makes a promise and keeps it or in someone who practices what is right and true.
He or she never engages in flattery; his or her compliments are honest and true.
but how will you know if that someone is sincere or not?
[FLASHBACK]
In my past, somebody promised me... that he won't ever leave me, that he'll always love me. Because of my trauma of pain, I tried to test his sincerity. But then, he failed.
*:
the fact that you left me made me feel like dying
that's why
I have banned you from my thoughts forever
even now... as I write this...
My mind dwells elsewhere...
And while my mind wanders...
Let me make it clear
That I have forgotten you completely.
If I think of you before I sleep and when I wake,
IT IS BUT A HABBIT
AND BAD HABBITS ARE HARD TO SHAKE OFF
STAINED
Ah! Mortal grief!
Oh! useless, vain regrets!
What will not MALICE and FALSE RUMOR say?
KEEP THEM SILENT!
[Leave me with my grief]
(I long for night and silence for my tears)Take A Stand
There are times in our life when we are faced to make a decision. What makes the decision hard is that both sides of the issue seem equally unacceptable or equally acceptable.
In my life I've committed a lot of mistakes because of taking the wrong move, or moving at the wrong time. And now-again, I'm forced to make a decision.
They say, "smart people looks at all sides before making a decision."
Am I smart enough to choose the best for me?...
Or...
the best for the common good?...
In Search For A Meaningful Life
Life is a precious gift. Instinctively, every living creature clings to it. In times of danger, people protect themselves, run for safety, or put up a fight to stay alive. Even the dying hold on to life and find it DIFFICULT TO GIVE IT UP. Only those who have CEASED to find meaning in life and who GIVE UP IN TO DESPAIR SEEK TO END IT.
and maybe-
I'll join their group later. :]
hahaha. I was just kiddin'. Why should I? :))
Because we are social beings, we establish different kinds of relationships with the people around us- our family, friends, teachers, and those of special importance to us... and relationship to the opposite sex.
As a teenager I started to get attracted to the opposite sex. And I guess- that's just normal. I consider it as one of the most natural thing that can ever happen to a growing adolescent like me.
With this attraction, however, a lot of problems can arise. Many young people are misled into thinking that they are mature and strong enough to handle the responsibilities and problems that come into building relationships. And on my own experience, I positively claim that to be true.
[FLASHBACK]
Because of that attraction, I found myself in a mess which affects the rest of my life. What's worse? I'm not the only one suffering, I mess up innocent lives to, the lives of my loved ones- my family.
And so, the wounds of my past seemed to heal- but there is still that pain. I can't find of any remedy. Until one day- something good happened, that made me feel alive again. :]
