*-*-the man you love-*-*
when you look in my eyes do you fell it in your soul?
Do you not realise you´re the half that makes me whole
Everything that I am,
I´ll give it all to you put my heart in your hands,
there´s nothing
I won´t do for the chance
just to live inside your heart and understand the woman that you are

*-chorus-*¨
i only wanna be the man
to give you everyting i can every day and every night
baby for all my life i don´t wanna change the world
it´s more than enough just to be the man you love
be the place where you run
when the walls come tumbling down
be the rock you lean on
when you can´t find solid ground
be your love and your friend an all
that´s in between from now on ´till the end,
it´s only you and me
i wanna hear your secrets and your wildest dreamm
wipe your tears... kiss your tenderly

*-chorus-*¨
i only wanna be the man to give you everything i can
every day and every night baby for all my life
i don´t wanna change the world
it´s more than enough just to be the man you love

"You will know that you love someone when you want him/her to be happy.Even
if that means you're not a part of their happiness."

"Ask me how many times my heart has been broken and I will tell you to look
in the sky and count the stars."

"If You Really Love Something Set It Free.If It Comes Back It's Yours, If
Not It Wasn't Meant To Be"

"The hardest part of loving someone is knowing when to let go, and knowing
when to say goodbye."

Its strange how quotes can be so true at times that you do not want to remember reading them or knowing them. One could be only as wise as one who is able to apply what he know. Maybe, i'm just stupidly silly.

It hurts the most when youcan actually feel your heart breaking.

Let the songs do the talking...

Iris: Goo Goo dolls.

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
and sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive

Crazy for this girl: Evan and Jaron

Would you look at me as i looks at you
You've got me thinking about you constantly
but you don't know how I feel
And as you carries on without a doubt
I wonder if you'd figured it out

I'm crazy for you girl.
Yeah
I'm crazy for you girl

I'd said the only lies i would said to you.

Have you guys ever wonder how you have seen a million type of people but still.... its so hard to understand one individual? A person can fully diversify the way you think about him/her by acting in a way out of suspicious of his/her feeling. Its really amazing how each one of us is. You will never know what one is thinking unless, he/she wants to be true to you and tell you about it. Although i always thought by looking people in the eyes i can see what they are thinking, i think there are still hidden truth above it all.

There is more to that than meet the eyes.

I think is it just me or maybe other people are the same? I always observe things and people but well. I realise EVERYONE need someone or something or somebody. As and when you go through different stages of life, you meet different people that have lend you their support along the way and you become who you are because of them and a bit of yourself. These people, some may stay a long time and leave, some may just be like a passing wind. It is these parting that make you learn and experience the truth about separation. People change and they really do, it may be small or it may be big, you will see it if you see closely.

Sensitivity is not an issue, its a gift.

People are always afraid to fail, yes we all do. Each time a person fail, they take the experience so hard and then, they enclose themselves out of this world momentarily. When they are back up, each time they meet with the same experience, their past always haunt them. Then they become more careful with what had happened. But some they just take it harder and they start to wonder why all this is happening ago.

We all will always go thru the repetition of failure cause it is then, that is where we learn become better from.

Things I've Missed Out

2007-06-15T00:12:00.000+08:00

Ok been awhile since i've blog as i haven't given thought to things for a while. Its really amazing what a day out from days in can do to a person, to me. Well watched Fantastic 4. Ok, the action and stuff was great but i manage to catch hold of something from there which i will like to share.

There are things in life we say to ourselves, we will never get there. In actual fact we gave up after failing once. And then we condemn ourselves to the fact that its the end. What is the end? I would say the end is only when your heart stop beating that's the end. But before all that, you still have loads that you can do out there. Look around you some things don't just come by, cherish them.

We do always have a choice. Its never too late for anything. You have a whole lifespan to try or keep trying or you can spend your whole lifetime regretting.

I was suppose to blog all those in a earlier date but was busy with other things.

People always say, "it's all in the mind." Yes it is. Try doing a simple experiement by jogging, what is the first thing that come into your mind after your first 1 km? Ah, this is bad i am feeling tired. But why not think otherwise? Yea this is good, its just another 2km? That is easy i can do it. You keep yourself mentally strong, you set yourself a finishing line and go all out on it. Like a sprinter on a 100m race track, it goes "BANG" and then what's next? They are off doing the race of their life with everything they got. But be warn, this 100 percent of what you got doesn't mean you will yield 100 percent of what you have given.

The mind is the limit. As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something, you can do it as long as you really believe 100 percent.

As we move on...

Some words are being put in italic for reasons.

Song title:Could it be any harder

Artist: The calling

Fade away (x12)
You left me with goodbye and open arms
A cut so deep I don't deserve
Well, you were always invincible in my eyes
The only thing against us now is time

Could it be any harder to say goodbye and without you,
Could it be any harder to watch you go, to face what's true
If I only had one more day
Fade away(x3)

I lie down and blind myself with laughter
Well, a quick fix of hope is what I'm needing
And how I wish that I could turn back the hours

But I know I just don't have the power

Could it be any harder to say goodbye and without you,

Could it be any harder to watch you go,

to face what's true If I only had one more day

Fade away(x3)

Well, I'd jump at the chance,
We'd drink and we'd dance
And I'd listen close to your every word,
As if it's your last, well I know it's your last,
Cause today, oh, you're gone

Could it be any harder,
Could it be any harder,
Could it be any harder to live my life without you
Could it be any harder, I'm all alone, I'm all alone

Like sand on my feet,
The smell of sweet perfume
You stick to me forever, baby
I wish you didn't go
I wish you didn't go, I wish you didn't go away
To touch you again,
With life in your hands,
It couldn't be any harder...

================================

The hardest thing in life to say is true good bye.

Ever wonder how hard it is to say good bye? There are things and people that we met along the way and we have to make choices about giving them up or not because we have to, but because we are forced by circumstances like the time that ticks on mercilessly. When we are at highest moments of our life it just ticks by that fast. As we move onwards into each phase of our life, we encounter all these emotionals good bye we have to say a choice we have to make. Well below is a little writing. To all the people out there that i've met.

Maybe its not good bye yet.

Good Bye

You wonder how things in life can get

So complicated. It's like you wonder

If things can possibly get any harder

Than they are at this very moment.

Well, to say good bye to someone you love

More than life is one of the hardest things

Life will ever throw at you.

Good-Bye is such a final word.

So the only way they will

Ever be gone out of your life is

if you take them out of your heart. So that is,

A choice that will be up to you and yourself.

Never let go of people and things you love.

=========================

Well back to the usual stuff.

How many times we see people making decisions and at the end of the day when something went wrong, they play the "pointing game". Well people we got to start waking up and blame nobody but ourselves for what we have decide to do and not to do.

Decisions

Regardless of the path you choose to seek

or the approach you adopt,

take ownership for your decisions

and blame no one for them.

Success

Success is not a place or a destination.

It is not large or small, expensive or cheap.

It is a feeling that comes from achieving what we set out to do.

Thats all for the day folks. =)

The "Meaning" Of Life

2007-04-29T01:04:00.000+08:00

In the context of religions, some say, we come, we live, we fall ill, we die thats the cycle of life or we live believing in the one and only god and so on and so fore.

In Yahoo about 87,700,000 for "The meaning of life" so if you think you are going to read through all the 87 million +++ links and then you might find your answer,but i think you won't.

So what exactly is life? Some live for people around them, some live to find the one true love in their life, some live in search for their dream while others they just live because they just don't know what they want in life and they have to live on. Each and everyone of us have a dream or maybe something in particular they wish to achieve or accomplish. Some might still be searching for it. Some might say "if you have something you wish to achieve, go all out for it". I say yes achievement, accomplishment, its a feeling it might somewhat be part of "meaning" of life but the truth is you will somehow still feel that something is missing.

One may live how long? Maybe 60 years or so on average or maybe not.

Sometimes life can be just so short that before you know it, its the end of the road. As we live on we realise that this is so because all of a sudden, a friend's so and so could just die from a heart attack or some other factors. So we don't really know what is in stall for us.

We have to live everyday as fulfilling as we can. So when we look back in time, we won't say, "why i didn't do this and that".

There are simply too many different definition one can come up with. You, who might ask yourself this question should really go find out what exactly are you out to achieve in this lifetime and what you really want. I would say do anything, anything i mean even a toilet cleaner or anything that you're happy with. Happiness come from within what you really feel.

But to end it, i would say the quote below is true.

About the quote, i've been there done that. During my time in SSC if not for all the friends that had been supporting me, i would have quit. Its their confident that make me more confident of what i can achieve and do. So, people there are people around you that are there to guide you and to give you a hand when you need. Cherish these people. There are also people who can't wait to see your downfall, love these people as they are the one that make you stronger.

Extracted from the book: The Greastest Adventure.
From Diary of Bertrand:

"whatever might happen, the most important thing was not to win success and glory but to have true friendship. Surrounded by close friends, uit would be easier to cope with all the people who were sure to criticize yet another failure"

Extracted from the book: Tuesdays With Morrie.

"The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in."

As quoted from my previous post:

"So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they're busy doing things they think is important. This is because they're chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is devote yourself to loving others, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning"

"Accept what you are able to do and what you are not able to do"

As requested, finally done after 5 days. I only give the best piece i can think of so here it goes.

"The Pursuit of happyness" the quote below is quoted from that show. The pursuit of happyness is a great show i would say. Right after coach carter. Its inspiring and it show how one man struggle thru hardships and later got to where he is. Some things in life it happen for a reason. It is thru these different hardships of life experience that a stout-hearted is forge.

"Pursuit of happiness, maybe happiness is only what we can only pursuit or maybe actually we can never have it no matter what"

How many can say they never fell? How many can say they are a perfectionist? I would say none. We are born into this world and we started to learn the very fact of life that everyone falls. It is thru all that we then become better. We crawl, then we learn to walk while attempting it we fall, then we run, we cycle, we swim .... We try we fall, we try again we fall and then we try and try. We will get there some day.

"We shouldn't be afraid of failure as everyone fail at some point."
"Accept what you are able to do and what you are not able to do"

We all dream, big and small we always dream of what will become of us. For it is with dreams that people move on. Sometimes when our dreams die and we feel that we can no longer pursuit or achieve what we have been fighting for, we lost all faith of hope and then we wander. But its amazing how life is made this way as for those who found the strength to pick themselves up again they gain new grounds and move on, as a better individual. No matter what, you are the one that can tell yourself what you can or can't do.

Don't ever let somebody tell you, you can't do something.
You got a dream, you got to protect it.
People can't do something themselves, they want to tell you, you can't do it.
You want something go and get it.

Emoed a little.

Its amazing how life goes in a cycle. I've seen how this particular friend revolve round in my past. It seem as though its a reflection of what had happen but the content are a little different. I was being asked, is there anything i can change to do better or something along the same context as i can't remember the exact words. What had happened to him reminded myself of what i had learnt a lot from. Basically its needless for details i'll just go with quotations:

"Don't change yourself for the sake of others, do it for the sake of yourself. Else when the motivator that give you the strength to change is gone, you will either lose yourself or revert back to what you used to be or worse"

I've seen many a time how friends/people change drastically or tremenduosly having gone thru the aftermath of emotional pain. Its saddening sometimes, when you see someone all so cheerful, loud, happy-go-lucky kind of person suddenly become all so solemnly quiet. How little changes from a particular person or something that he/she love can affect oneself so dramatically.

"In everybody life, there is a point of time when something hit you so hard that change you completely into a different person. A new you"

There's an eye opening event that i went to yesterday, since its past 12 midnight so yea its yesterday. Its call Cheerobics. In this competition are people who have so much passion in it and had put their heart and soul into training running thru their routine day after day but alas, sometimes we don't actually get what we work for. Questioning that, "Do we really ripe what we sow?" I will say yes there bound to be something from all the hardwork. I believe Magnum people had done well, be it good or bad the results had been presented, i believe they have really gain something extraordinary, that is strong bond and togetherness. There are things that are priceless, its unwritten, nor fame, nor money can buy. It is a kind of special feeling called "love". Think about it this way, love can be in a big or small scale. We all love the people around us, friends family etc etc. It is this special word/feeling that kept people together.

"People learn thru the hard way. Thru hardships only do they really feel/notice the existence of people around them."

During that event, i've seen tears rolling down cheeks of friends, families and people unknown to me. Its amazing how people are brought together when they realise how much hardwork one have gone thru just for one thing in their heart and soul, that is to get the one thing they have work so hard for. Its hard to console them at such times, i believe they need time to think as there are so many things going thru each and every single one of their minds.

"There are times when we feel so helpfully helpless, as we stood there, right there at that moment and see that we can't do anything to stop the tears from flowing."

I'm done for the day, exhausted...... nice event.

Been awhile,

If people ever wonder how drastically people can change from one form to another, its just one word that is messing with their brain, money. As i do sales for 4 days at the IT show, i have notice how people that looks innocently simple can actually be so complicated. Never allow yourself to be fool by the first appearance of the person.

"What you see is not what you get, what you can feel is the real essence to the true personality of that person"

The quote below is one which i quoted from a book titled, "Tuesdays with morrie" I learn a lot about life and its a pretty inspiring book. Below is one phrase that i find its true and i thought i would like to share it with my frens out there. The true meaning to eternal happiness is finding and pursuing what you really want. Don't let the tide and current push you around, swim with whatever you have towards your goals, aims and find your true self worth. Pursue.

"So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they're busy doing things they think is important. This is because they're chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is devote yourself to loving others, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning"

A friend once told me, "Forget about the past, embrace the present and look forward into the future". But i will say, If there is no past, there will be no present. As i believe what i am now is not because of myself, but because of the people i met along the way and the things that i have been able to learn from them. I have been thru 3 phase of education, Primary, secondary and Poly, i will say Poly is the time i realise far more of myself than i have imagine, been given chances and having been given help by people. I will like to say Thank you to them for the time and effort.

"Remember the past, embrace the present and look into the future".

Read a news paper article about service in a restaurant. It goes something like, a restaurant of the same name but of different team of people can be so different in services. Eg, Restaurant A have a team of people whose leader is not as spontaneous, for that we surely know what is the consequences that will followed. Yes, the people under him will be around the same then. But in Restaurant B, the leader overlook everything and ensure that he give the best services when a customer is being neglected then, the worker under will learn from him and the his working style. Its amazing how a equally expensive restaurant can have such a big difference with the impact of a good suprvisor/manager.

"What we do reflect a lot about ourselves to others, it is what others will learn by the exemplary display of character"

There are times when one think that they are so great in a certain place. They think they are everything. But they never realise how small they actually are as they have yet to see the best of the bests. Only when they realise that later, only then they realise they have been too full of themselves.

Been awhile since i've update so here goes,

It has come to past that i realised that there are things in life one can fight so hard for and in the end, it is not that one effort you make that is going to make any difference. It is what everyone as one want to which will make that change.

We ourselves at times think that we can do something and make a difference out of everything. But then, many a times we realise that the things we are trying to achieve are the possibilities of the impossible. We being the stubborn one always listen to none till we found ourselves coming to the deadend of things and then we realise that this is not our route to take.

"There are times that one fought so hard for something and then realise that the fight is not theirs to begin with"

I was on a taxi trip the other day and i can tell you, sometimes its worth paying taxi fares and then listen to priceless life experience of the uncles. Been thru a lot of trip on differnet taxi and i must agree i have learn a lot from all this people. Having said that, this uncle was telling me that,
"kids these days really getting out of hands, you try to teach them and they won't listen to you at all. I wonder what i can do to make them listen to me. I've tried so hard and yet. Maybe i should let him go out and have a taste of the real world and let the law handle him"

His point here is telling us that the elders at home have been thru more than any of us around. They have seen more than us and the things they said is never wrong or maybe sometimes. They see the way you grow up and they know you very well or should i say to some fairly well enough to pass a judgement on you and the things you do. Before i got off the taxi he said,

"Listen to your parents, they are your best advisors"

Well have more but i'm just a little tired to think. Take care people.

I suddenly thought of something yesterday as i lay on bed. Sometimes, many bring along their unhappiness with them even if its a new day the next morning. There are many a times we should just leave the past happenings in our sleep and the next morning we wake up, Abracadabra its a new day. Its easy to say that but many hold grudges to the past happenings. Like what one of my friend said, everyone have their own perspective to life. We can view it in so many different angles and it goes infinity. Well for angles its 360 degree only so yea. Before i sleep i told myself..............

"Why live in yesterday when we got tomorrow and we can start by telling ourselves, "It has got to be better than yesterday".

Sometimes in life, We like to do things that we love and we enjoy doing it and there are things that we put great effort and many a times, it can't be seen. We also do things not because we have to do it but because we have to.I believe luck plays a part in the things we do. Not all the time we reap what we sow as the harvest is not meant to be ours. . Then again we also dream about doing something and realised that our time had past. Putting that in context of running, there are many race we have to run, short sprints, marathon and then it goes.......

"There are miles that we will run wholeheartedly knowing that no matter how hard it is we will complete the race. There are miles that we have to run but our heart is not with us, its a race meant to be accomplish not because of passion but because of circumstances. There is also another race that we always dream about, but that race is not ours to run yet."

There are things in life we are afraid to try because we fear to see that the truth is what our imagination concludes. When we try, we never realise that those tries are what made us realise our limitations and allowed us to set a foot further in becoming a better person.

"There are times we fear to venture into the unknown. The presence of these fears that we have that limits us to what we are. When we know we can be better."

Many a times we think we know something, we think we can do something and we go round saying,"yes i will do it" , "Yes i can do it" but at the end of the day, we realise we can't accomplish what was being promised.

This quote i got it off a TV screen at the engineering block. My secondary school teacher used to tell me, "You are over confident". I was......

"It is not ignorance that is the problem, it is the illusion of knowledge".

A bit about life, its pretty true from this quote contributed by a pal of mine. It was said your ripe what you sow, its pretty the same as what it is said below.

"Life is like a paper aeroplane. The amount of effort you put into throwing yourself, determines how far you will fly."

Another quote about friendship, edited from what a pal comment.

There are times when you thought you had lose a friend or you may simply think that their existence is the past now... But never did we realise there are times when we could simply just put in a little effort or two to get what we had lost back.

"Sometimes we didn't lose the things we thought we did, its just a little lost. Just put in a little effort in finding it."

Another year.

2006-12-31T15:59:00.000+08:00

Another year will be passing soon..... and a uncle on the taxi called me Uncle my my......

It was said "you gain some and you lose some", i'm starting to see it as year passes by that...

"You gain some and you lose some, if you choose to gain and not lose, at the end of the day you will lose yourself".

About Leadership: (By my elder brother)

I believe there are many kind of leaders around. Many of them have different values when it come to leadership. But for me i believe the best leader is one that work best with his people as stated below.

"A good leader is not how well he work with the best people, but how he work with people to bring out the best in them. He may not be the best, but to his people, he is."

About determination:

Many a times, we start something and we never end what we started. We gave up along the way. Ask yourself just one question, "How many times have you finish what you started?"

"You're not finish when you lose, you're finish when you give up"

A little walk in TOWN.

2006-12-20T00:53:00.000+08:00

I've been noticing people around, how they work and stuff. Its interesting really, we see foreign workers working at the construction sites, painting our HDB walls and cleaning the rubbish chute, but we have never really appreciate what the little things people are doing that make the world better for us. People always do something great and get recognised. But they never realise, even the little thing they do, they are actually making a difference.

"No matter how small you feel that you are in this world, each and every litte thing you do might just means a lot for somebody"

Then another thing really surprised me, was walking along the shops and came to notice this two couples, the husband is pushing his wife who is on the wheelchair. Why is it special? Its because the wife lost both her arms and legs. I wrote about this because, we the new generation are very different now. How many will actually stay if such things ever happen to the one they love? I would say for now, i think not many.

"True love know no limits"

"There are things in life we take it for granted that it will be there forever and we didn't come to realise that forever is just a facade for the end"

For those who have been through the "Yellow Ribbon" Many a time we all judge a person by how they looks and we never did realise that we condemn them totally by not giving them a chance to show their true inner self, which is what they really are.
