So what happens?

In life, anything you do – would be insignificant. (Remember Me)

I do not know if it is me or my preconceived notion that am going to die young; that I really get too affected by anything about death, especially by dying young.

 

Within this week, two strangers died; well they aren’t total strangers to me. One is my sister’s friend, the other a schoolmate. I have vivid memories of the later while, of course, my sister has much of the former. It send chills to my spine just thinking about them, both died relatively young, just our age.

 

Am still devastated by the movie I have quoted, seen it ‘till the end – for the first time today. And damn, I cried. I was like 11 when the twin towers was bombed (hit by planes) and I don’t really have any relative experience, but, perhaps because of what I said above, I have had these strange feeling whenever its brought about, still do. Lives lost – that’s just too much.

 

But yet again, this is but reality. The world is beautiful – but there lurks fate, bad fate sometimes. And sometimes bad things happen, people die, things go wrong.

 

And so, in reflection to what Tyler quoted from Gandhi; damn right; my life would be insignificant in life’s far greater stretch. Even if I end up in history books – or at least in Wikipedia; it’s as is, life. And am lucky enough to still breathe and able to touch others still.

 

So take it in – good or bad – and live. Life’s short.

enflamed

 Consumest myself of with thy passion…

it is in thy breathe of flames where I feel the coldest nights…

nights that which only lovers can survive…

 

I do not care what the court may say…

or the king or the ladies, not even the knights…

can take you, rip you off my heart

I have loved you the first moment I breathed

I will, till last.

 

MEMO1

This would be my first time to write about this here.

I have what I call ELMOs or Life’s Lil’ Memos; its a sort of something to remind me how wonderful life is amidst and in spite of…

Days ago my 15ish nephew told me that ‘Life’s simple’.

To most adults, we might take the line for granted.

But hey, isn’t he right. In retrospect, I have been into much but there are plain and simple stuffs in my life that have remain true. I may have gone through some rough times but the complications always end. And most of all, most of then ( I mean complications) are but my creation.

life's little joys(pictured here’s one of my lil’ joys, toe (on my toes and his) doodles by my nephew and me)

So my friends, let’s not forget to remind ourselves…

LIFE is SIMPLE, it has always been.

brent tzu Bead works seem to take forever before becoming perfectly sewn into works of art.

Pictured here is one of my niece’s bead accessories.

funny how it reminded me something apt with my fussing.

PATIENCE. It takes forever to have a beaded work of art sewn into perfection. But ‘forever’ always gets through. So, hey, spell PATIENCE.

May your dreams come true :)

faded pictures

faded pictureI have been trying to grab old pictures from a dying photo album I have found at home.

Kids here in the picture are my old cousins (way too older than me:))

I uploaded the picture to share one thought…

One of these days, OUR pictures would be but  faded and old – and so will we.

So, say ‘cheese’, laugh often and capture every single moment, as we never know what tomorrow may bring. Keep dreaming :)
