"Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me,
Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee;
Sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
Lull'd by the moonlight have all pass'd away"
Guess what? This is the new epitome of iridescence

with a myriad of colours you see below!
So watcha waiting for? Start painting and enjoy! :)

Some rules are flawed. They are of double-standards and are inconsistent. How then to follow such man-made rules that you find hard to comprehend, much less, be in compliance to and an 'advocate' of?
Rules are man-made. Man should dictate what rules to obey.
So, let's just be apathetic and follow your own rules instead. :)

It has been a really long time since I last penned. Many things have happened thus far. It has been slightly more than a year since I joined my present company. How time flies! The kids are bigger, older and hopefully, slightly wiser. Ryan and Ilyssa may quarrel and fight over minor issues still, but they are, I believe, slightly more understanding. After all, they have a little sibling, Charlene to consider now.
With the passing of time, I feel older actually. My body seems to have degenerated after several bouts of virus attacks. The common flu and most recently, stomach flu. Backaches too bug me. I can't deny the fact that the passing of time has indeed rendered me to be physically older and I guess, weaker as well. Gone are the days whereby I can swim laps after laps - 42KM - within an hr plus or so, almost effortlessly. I must summon Discipline back home one of these days or flab is certainly here to stay. But oftentimes, the body beats the brain as the brain is weak. :)
Over time, my mindset changes. What may seem blurry and uncertain about a year back remains blurry. However, the thick fog ahead has in a way, eased into haze. I have a clearer idea of my goals and what I want in life. However, the journey/routes towards these goals are ever-changing which explains the haze. There may be distractions or opportunities (it really depends on how you view it) along the way that lead you to tread different paths. But the ultimate goal(s), I believe, are constant. The climb may be different. One climb may take a longer hike than the alternative one. It is the choices you make that differ.
On a slightly different note, Time is strange. It may just fly for some. But for others, it may seem like an eternal torture. Natural disasters could hit you within seconds and last for perhaps, minutes. However, the aftermath of rebuilding infrastructures and reconstructing lives makes time tick ever so slowly. The passing on of closed ones during such disasters result in those left behind to take time to heal wounds and to readjust their lives. Time certainly doesn't fly for them. Having had experienced a closed one leave me before, I guess, on a certain level, I do know how they feel. However, I am certain that after emerging stronger from such difficult times and looking back to see the personal hurdles that they had crossed, they would feel that time has treated them kindly after all.
Everything happens for a reason.
Trust me. Pain doesn't stay. Time is the cure, if you believe.
