A beautiful excerpt from a beautiful post. From Sam's blog.

It is important to note that friendship love is grounded in reality. This begins with the absence of idealization. The great weakness of romantic love is that lovers see each other through the unrealistic lens of idealization. This is, of course, why romantic love is unstable. Eventually reality sets in and shatters the unrealistic perceptions of the loved one.

True friends, in contrast, see each other realistically. Because they know each other so well, they know the weaknesses that are hidden from the view of those at a distance. This awareness, however, does not diminish the respect, affection and admiration that they feel. But they are not prone to idolization. Friends are not fascinated by each other. Nor are they awestruck. They know each other not by the outer garb of persona but by the dependable and relatively stable elements of habit, character, disposition and trait. It is this down-to-earth quality of friendships that gives them stability and endurance. They may be unromantic, but they are anchored in reality.

Viva Friendship.

I discovered that people are not really afraid of dying; they're afraid of not ever having lived, not ever having deeply considered their life's higher purpose, and not ever having stepped into that purpose and at least tried to make a difference in this world." - Joseph Jaworski

This rings truth to me.

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to good manners and elegance. In love, you feel the most alive when your lover is creative and never lets you feel bored. You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change. You would be forced to break up with someone who was ruthless, cold-blooded, and sarcastic. Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with. Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred. In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally devoted.

What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

Special Dedication to Leila Tong Lin!

She was literally my fav hong kong starlet that I grew up watching! Well back then when she was younger, she has already acted in a multitude of dramas and movies. Although she really only got to act the younger versions of the leading attresses. But its good to know that she is now taking on leading roles! Really gotta hand to her in her perseverance towards acting!

DREAMS OF YESTERDAY

Featuring Yamada Takayuki & Erika Sawajiri




Note : I edited the clips from the drama "Sekai Chuushin De Ai Wo Sakebu" that Yamada acted in & merged it with the clips from "One Litre Of Tears" that Erika acted in. Coupled with the recent "Taiyou No Uta" jdorama, we have a heartwarming and transcendental drama. Stay tuned!! LOL

Reflections. Notes to myself.


Finding what makes you happy. This is as important as life itself.

Various personality and love languages allows "Serendipity" to take place and flourish

You should not hate what you don't have.

Since God is almighty and sovereign, should you worry of how physical attributes can set you back, when it is in His time and wisdom that things may fall into place.

There's not an absolute way of living, but a consistent act of loving that make life meaningful.

Understanding may take a lot of time, but once understood, it will always stay

We are weak, and we constantly place things into our own hands and work in our own strength, but with no faith, we live only for what we SEE.

Diversity should be celebrated, not conventionalized and desensitized

Moral absolutes keep us safe for we may never known when we lose the human touch

To live in vain is to live without thought, without questioning our own perspective towards the life.

To truly die is to truly forget, that we have a purpose to fulfill, each and every one of us

Love is transcendental, even till death

Wisdom is a double-edged sword. A fool will say, why think so much? The Wise knows too much

Suffering is an indication for opportunities to growth.

Melancholia is romantic. Isn't tough love always the most sentimental?

Loving someone is a consistent act of will, a choice. And it is not merely exclusive to V-Day!

SERENDIPITY.

Did an interesting quiz. And fairly accurate results too.

The results:

Royston, when it comes to dating, you are a Social Idealist. This means you feel in your heart that there is one special partner out there for you and chances are, you've spent plenty of time daydreaming about them. You've probably imagined all kinds of things about who they are, compiling a mental checklist down to the smallest details. After all, knowing what you want is a good thing. You're pretty sure you'll know love when you see it and you're more than willing to go out and find your ideal mate. Being naturally social, meeting people may feel almost like a hobby of yours. You enjoy chatting up friends of friends, or even total strangers, more than most people do. But this outgoing nature doesn't mean you take whatever comes your way. When it comes to finding a love interest, you're not interested in just anyone. You want "the one."

This romantic quest likely has you sizing up new people's potential as soon as you meet them. In the first five minutes of talking to someone at a party, you've probably determined whether you find them attractive, critiqued their personality, and decided whether or not they're a long-term prospect. You may have even named the offspring you would have with them.

Your checklist-style quick judgment can work both for and against you. Many people don't measure up to your ideals. Be careful of any tendency to throw a potential date away too quickly. You just may overlook a fantastic mate because they have a funny laugh or the wrong colored hair, and ultimately, is it worth it to do that? You never know where love will blossom, and with so many different prospects to choose from, even the process of looking can be fun.

Based on your answers to the test, we can also tell that you've often relied on destiny to guide your romantic life. Tending to sit back and let the universe do its work, you may expect that one day you'll simply bump into your ideal mate like lovers do in the movies. Perhaps you've even found yourself saying, "When the time is right, love will find me." Because of this approach, meeting new people can feel like a random event. So far your search for love has demanded that you be in the right place at the right time. Sometimes fate works like a charm. After all, your past relationships have probably come from places you'd never expect. Still, if you've failed to make a proactive plan to meet people up until now, you may have found that you've gone for long stretches without dating anyone at all. If you take just a little time and make just a little effort to direct your search a bit, you could increase your chances of meeting someone right for you.


Grool...what a hit on the nail. I am so DEAD. Hahahaha

Finally blogging again. It's 5.00am on my clock.

and I am still awake.

Lately I have been having insomnia.

It's been a while since I slept at 12pm. Sometimes I wonder what is going through my mind.

Restlessness. I think a lot. Especially at night. Late night. Early morning to be exact.

Been flipping on my bed for a long while, but I just couldn't get my mind to rest, to stop thinking about things.

Random things, things that I am concerned with.

I need to read.

My life seems to be flashing by; all the hidden anxieties.

Well, I did something impulsive recently, spontaneous to put in a nice way.

But this is the very thing that kept me questioning on my intentions.

What was I expecting. It unsettled me.

Perhaps there was something deep down that I still yearned.

That elusive thing.

A revisitation of the past. A reliving of those times.

The palpitations of the heart. The adrenaline that goes with it.

When we act in a way that does not correspond with our beliefs,

we just get lost.
