i have always believed that happiness and sadness should come from within. only ourselves have the power to control our emotions meter, and tune it to whatever we should feel.

i guess that's quite dumb. because ultimately how you feel is determined by many factors which leads you to experience a certain state.

but i dont believe that it should revolve around the acts of a single individual person or thing, because if your life is just dependant on it, you had better pray hard that it treats you right.

but mostly, things do not happen the way we want it to.
the words you long to hear, the acts you long to see, seem a far reach from your outstretched hand that is frantically grasping, but clutches at nothing.

i dont like it, and i should resent it should it happen to me.
because life is a beautiful picture.
that thing may take up the main portion of the canvas, but there are other accompaniments that complement the picture to create what is, its final touch.

sometimes life can get a little depressing. because we have the power of imagination, so we daydream and fantasize about how great life can be, that we tend to forget what we have is prety good.
but our mentality is always 'it can be better' and sadly, it is usually the truth.

but humans are not patient. there are many things which you have to slowly work at, with the utmost precision and skill.
we are sculptors. if you rush something, chances are, you are bound to break something, and the ultimate result which you want becomes further.

there are years ahead of us. i'm not taking for granted the promise of tomorrow, but sometimes we dont have a choice. truly, good things come to those who wait.

and sometimes, you must earn it.
to show that you deserve it, that you can handle it.

but on the other side of the picture, one must not forget that tomorrow is a gift. it is a present given to us by God's choice.
sometimes, although things take time, we must not take too long.
for when the day comes when you decide or are ready to open up, that person might just be gone forever.
