Control
I used to think I was in control of everything

to try and survive………

Lost and all alone in the midst of a journey,
Only my heart is wandering, as I came to a standstill,
but now I have the strength to walk further,
Yes that was after I met you along this path,
The song that travellers sing that I know not of
is beginning to sound nostalgic
just by being with you.
If the world I dream of does exist somewhere in this world
shall we go look for it, on the...
As I reflect on this year on my birthday my soul gets wearier,
I have worked to my core,
I am so physically and mentally exhausted I would cry,
but I have no energy to expend on emotions,
yet what have I achieved?
I have simply just survived another year,
to spend Christmas, my birthday working.

To laugh is to risk appearing the fool. To weep is to risk appearing sentimental. To reach out for another is to risk involvement. To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self. To place your ideas, your visions and your dreams before a… crowd is to risk their loss. To love is to risk not being loved in return. To live is to risk dying. To hope is to risk despair.

Are you a carrot, egg or coffee bean
A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved a new one arose.
Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water. In the first, she placed carrots, in the second she placed...
I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can...
Life’s real failure is when you do not realize how close you were to success when you gave up.

Coffee shops where couples go to break up
I know a coffee shop called The Curtain, where couples go to break up. Spaces are properly separated, the lights are dim and the music is never too loud. You can see the rain through the windows. The owner doesn’t guarantee rain though. waiters move discreetly among the couples with invisible and expert hands delivering coffee and cakes, sometimes even facial tissues when they are needed.

What I feel like doing now, just less prettily →
冰冻三尺,非一日之寒 = 3 feet of ice is not created over one night of cold temperatures
– Hard work is not measured by a single day, but ceaseless effort through years

Job offers and arrogance
Yesterday, I re-learnt the lesson of arrogance. To be arrogant is to not know what you don’t know and the over estimation of one’s abilities and other’s admiration of you and what you have done. It leads to dire consequences and a pretty hard fall. But as such is to be human, mistakes are made and so long the as the lesson is learned, then there should be no regrets, as our past...
