I wish this poem was pixie dust - Nicholas Gordon

We lust for what we cannot have,
A long, unbroken chain
Of lovers who remain unloved
And loved who love in vain.

While I'm near mad with wanting you
As trees must have the sun,
You cannot help but find a love
Who loves another one.

The higher you climb, the harder you fall

I've built walls so high that only few can climb
These walls of illusion will make you think you're all the way through
But you're not. You're most certainly not.
Those who dare scale these walls time after time will surely learn their lesson soon
That the higher you climb, the harder you fall.



And i have my demons too.

Food for thought

Sometimes i cant understand why some people are so materialistic. Isnt it sad when clothes and shoes and make up make people happy? Sure, sometimes buying nice clothes can make me happy..for maybe a grand total of 10 seconds. Does it really matter if we cant buy nice things all the time? Because at the end the day, things are just that..things. And all things are temporal.

On a side note, what's a blogwalker?
Do blogs walk?

HI!

I haven't blogged in eons so i haven't got to deleting all the spam tags. After so many months, i thought the spamming would lessen...but obviously that's not the case.

So i'll remove those tags soon. I promise. After A's of course.
Life as a JC2 kid resumes tomorrow );

So i dont think i have anymore readers. But it's pretty cool to be blogging to myself heehe C:

Couldn't agree more

Be it Thailand's Reds vs the Yellows, or the Taiwan's 2004 Presidential election, MIC vs the police in KL, or even the latest Bersih 2.0 incident, they are ONLY protestors, who in the name of justice or judicial/ political equality, stood in streets marching together, shouting slogans and carrying banners.

London riots IS a case of human minds went crazy, or berserk, and actions went out of control. Its a case of people, without any sense of reason and/ or logic, going round the town and committing crimes blatantly, without any sensical beliefs and principles.

The former type is an organised, well-communicated gathering - they pass messages to each other, decided on a day, prepare themselves beforehand with whatever they have, and march onto the streets. When police stepped in to interfere, they either got themselves stronger together, which resulted in the mass arrests, or dispersed and went into their own respective hiding holes. Would they even think of going to their neighbourhood stores and start a rampage, or began burning cars and homes which they don't even know who the owners are? No.

The other type is totally out of control - no messages needed, no communication necessary. Once they see the city is down in its security, one fella started the act and the rest, seeing that no police is around to apprehend, began the whirlpool of outright looting and arsoning. Along the way, the moment they met any human hindrance or interference, they are determined to run them down. And thus came the physical abuse which ranged from body hurt to killing.

It is a case of minds gone wrong and souls gone missing. While many unrests were recorded in the 80s and 90s, where the triggering points mainly being political and social, incident like the Jakarta riots in May 1998 which had the locals raping Chinese women was a sound reminder that sometimes when human minds and spirits gone wrong, it would be a case of 'free for all', all in the name of 'wildness' and 'rampant wrath'.

It is with this acute understanding that Nichiren, a 13th-century Buddhist priest, wrote down in his thesis submitted to the Kamarkura Shogun government, that it is only through the propagation of 'correct teaching', which cultivates the correct spirit and mind, that peace and stability of the land can be secured and established. In all senses it is thoroughly true that only when the human minds are functioning in the correct spirit that the lands of which the humans dwell in can be maintained with proper law and order.

You're as good as gone;

It's a little tough, that's all.

Promises, promises.
Don't make them.
