Today we have higher buildings and wider highways, but shorter temperments and narrower points of view.
We spend more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses, but smaller families. We have more compromises, but less time. We have more knowledge, but less judgement. We have more medicines, but less health.
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk much, we love only a little, and we hate too much.
We reached the moon and came back, but we find it troublesome to cross our own street and meet our neighbors. We have conquered the outer space, but not our inner space.
We have higher income, but less morals… These are times with more liberty, but less joy… With much more food, but less nutrition…
These are days in which two salaries come home, but divorces increase. These are times of finer houses, but more broken homes.
That’s why I propose that as of today -- You do not keep anything for a special occasion, because every day that you live is a special occasion. Search for knowledge, read more, sit on your front porch and admire the view without paying attention to the needs. Pass more time with your family, eat your favorite food, visit the place you love. Life is a chain of moments of enjoyment; it isn’t only survival.
Use your crystal goblets. Do not save your best perfume… use it every time you feel you want it. Take out from your vocabulary phrases like, “one of these days” and “someday”. Let’s write that letter we thought of writing “one of these days…”
Let’s tell our families and friends how much we love them. Never pass up a chance at adding laughter and joy to your life. Every day, hour, and minute are special… Because you never know if it will be your last…
If you’re too busy to take some minutes to share this message with someone you love, and you tell yourself that you will share it “one of these days”… “one of these days” can be very far away, and you may not be there to see it…

Life
My friend from Australia called me. He told me about his problems like how life is all planned out for him.. He told me he couldnt mix well with the australians because they simple do not like chinese. i feel sad cus all i could do was listen.
He told me also how he needed to pretend to be okay and just pretend that everyone's nice because he was so afraid to know the truth which is that they actually just dont like him cus he's chinese. So he lived through everyone pretending everything's okay when obviously they're not. A chinese girl who worked at a restaurant became his friend. And she confronted him asking "why dont you just live life the way you want it to be''? Why do u have to please them? He thought about that and then decided to call me because we once had a talk about pleasing people who dont even give a shit about you.,
Then i told him how its been here and stuff. He then talk about how some people can act so nice but then own a heart so black but yet we cant see? Why cant people just live the way they are and just stop acting to be nice and then saying that others are fake when they themselves are? Some people like me, look angry and pissed off if i dont smile. so its like others just say im purposely showing that face. oh please its effin not my fault k. im just freaking BORN with it and sadly so as my friend's.

Bluuu House
i feel so blue... the sky is blue...
blue. blue. blue.
its so stupid to keep fighting knowing that that endless and it doesnt gain anyone anything.
but.
why do people still do it?
i mean. we misunderstand people so easily.
its like u dont know her but your best friend goes on craping shitz about her and then you end up disliking her as well.
oh, its so stupid.
hmm. let's talk about faith.
can anyone ever realllyyyy be faithful?
lets talk about hatred.
can anyone really hate a person sooo much that they actually get sooo narrow minded and act all fake towards the person and pointing fingers saying she's the one to blame for being who she is when actually they themselves are just too blinded to just notice that its not true ?
Why do people have to do things for a reason. i mean. its like they accuse and get suspicious so easily. so blinded to not see the fact that its a small problem and yet make a big fuss saying oh she did it. oh i she's not nice. Why cant you just act like you're a human and just effin understand the whole situation before pointing fingers?
hmm.
