On Confessions

Do you even know how much you mean to me?

On Courage

How will I ever find the courage?

On Growing Up

I remember when I was young, I always envied adults for all the freedom they seemed to be entitled to, for their not needing to attend lessons in school, for everything they did. They say the grass is always greener on the other side. Which makes me wonder "they" are always right. The paradox is, with more freedom that comes along with growing up, comes more responsibility. You're not only accountable to yourself, but also to the people around you, your family and friends, even to people whom you have absolutely no connection with.

My view has broadened somewhat, certain issues that never bothered me have begun to bite my mind like how termites tear through cellulose. In the past few months, I have seen a lot more things that I have never seen before. I've learnt that people out there are not as naive as the people that you thought they might be.

And yet there are some things that even grown ups find hard to deal with.

Rebirth

When the phoenix dies it consumes itself in a fearsome fire, and from its ashes comes forth a new phoenix.

Like the phoenix, my blog has been reborn.
