Not Alone.

Hey there,
how's your day going?
is everything all right these days?
how are you?
are you, okay?

...

This one is written to all of you out there, needing someone to hear you out.
As I was on a short weekend getaway with my best friend last weekend (which you can read about in a blogpost written by her HERE), we were blessed to be able to savour the serenity of nature without the hustle of other tourists. It was just us and the waterfall. Just the two of us and the uncertainty of what's laying in front of the dark tunnel.

There and only then, we both finally understood the meaning behind the sentence of humans are a social creature. We all need someone. Things are always better when you have someone to share it with. It doesn't matter whether you are an extrovert or an introvert, we all enjoy life by sharing it with other people.

Oh yes, I am very much aware with the fact that all problems in life comes because of the existence of other people. But, thinking about it, I realised that life has no meaning at all if it's only me that exist in this world.

When we are happy, we need - more than just want - to share it with someone
When we achieved something, we need people to acknowledge that
When we are facing difficult times, we need other people's shoulder to cry on and ears to listen
When we are busy, we need other people to look out for us
When we are enjoying our free time, we need other people to think about
When we love, we love other people.
This intertwined common need is what I believe made us human.

Back to you needing someone to hear you out,
There are people around you, those who care deeply about you.
They are indeed not perfect, they may have disappoint you at a time, but they are still there.
It is likely that they've tried to reach out to you, yet you shut down on them.
It is likely that they've been waiting for you to talk to them.
It is likely that just if you want to try, you'll find them welcoming you open heartedly.

This post just want to remind you that you are not alone.
If you're having a bad day, talk to someone.
If you're facing some problems, reach out to people, talk about it.
You can't keep it all alone inside. That way, you're just creating a ticking bomb.
I believe that our creator created many of us and not just one of us or even few of us for this very purpose.

So hey,
it might be just a bad day and not a bad life, right?
cheer up, smile on, keep your head held high, start telling your story, someone is bound to willingly listen.

Promise yourself something?
If it gets hard, talk to the right people, find someone you trust and start with them.
Because once you start telling your story, even not receiving any solid solutions, you will definitely feel better.

Things Taken For Granted

"The things we take for granted are the things we long for the most when they're gone" After bringing up the idea to my instagram story, I learnt from friends' kind responses that most of us have that little things that we have been taking for granted in this life. Things that worth so much more than we realise but we kind of forget just because we got them by grace, we got them already, and we got them without sacrificing much of ourselves. Little do we know, these things we take for granted, they are not going to be there forever and always and that is exactly why I wish for us all to take a moment to embrace it all and give these things more credit that we gave them for these things deserves so much more than this. Life. How often is it we forget that each day when we are able to open up our eyes to the bright sunlight is a grace in itself. It doesn't matter how hard, how miserable, how boring, how lonely you might feel your days currently are, the very b...

We Are Who We Are

"We are who we are,” A line of one of my current ongoing tv series good doctor that suddenly become a jolt of inspiration to reflect, to write once again. We are who we are and indeed we are all different. One very introvert and need her own space, one never runs out of the so called social battery. One likes to cook and bake and paint, one, on the other hand, likes to do math and statistic and accounting. One is very practical and energy conscious, the other one very in the moment and living life to the fullest. These differences, it sometimes feel like the barrier of us getting along. It sometimes feel like with each differences, the further away we become from creating a long-lasting friendship filled with “unconditional” love. Sometimes too, these differences create a heavy burden of expectation. Expectation to be slightly less different, expectation to change who you are for the sake of being “belong” in a group of people, expectation to di...

Making a Difference (?)

Looking at the million stars above me, wondering how far they all are, how wide this universe is, there's only one way this brain can go, "how on earth is the little insignificant me is supposed to make a change in this world?". There were some points in my life when I dreamed to be inspiring. Inspiring enough to be heard by millions, inspiring enough for thousands of people to follow me on social media, and inspiring enough for hundreds of people to read my blog posts. The dream to inspire was based on the hope that my life could mean something, could bring a change, could make this world just a little bit better. But then there were moments like these. When I realised that no matter how "inspiring" or not I am, it's kind of making zero difference in this world. I mean who are we? Just a speck of dust within the galaxy says Adam Levine's lost stars. How impactful should one be to change the world? Being a president? Being a miss universe? Being...
