Blue

Sunday. 7am.

I sat down in the balcony overseeing an empty pool. The sky was breaking blue on the horizon.

The soft January breeze from the south unabashedly caressed my face.

Moments passed as I sat there gazing upward to what appeared to be a heaven on earth.

Then only did I realise how lucky I was that I had been held captive by a beautiful day.

This is the life.

Resolution

It was a calm, quiet night.

Not a touch of chaos in sight.

The full moon bathed us in its light bringing everything else into a sense of perfect balance.

As the midnight hour struck, we raised our drinks and toasted to a good year and good health.

At first, I thought being a happier person with what I already have would be my new year's resolution.

Damn, I was wrong. This life is not just about me.

It's about making a difference in other people's lives.

..."Life is short I'm going to help as many lives as I can".

Simple pleasure

The sky was of clear light blue with different shades.

The rain had just stopped.

I can smell the scent of fresh wet grass.

The slippers I wore made squishy sound as I made my way across the garden.

I found some whites flowers lying on the grass.

I stopped, as I enjoyed the simple pleasure given in this life.

Miracles & love

Whatever happened in the past, I believe everything happens for a reason.

So few fundamentals need to be covered before we walk into 2010. Although hope can be cruel at times, I believe that we should never give up on our hope.

Never give up on those who in need of our service, although all that is left are miracles. For every disease has its cure, and human knowledge are the rate-limiting factor. But there is no real bound to what human spirit can achieve. In the face of our greatest adversary that can only we acknowledge our weaknesses and overcome them.

If you ask me what do I know about love. Well, I know for certain now that you can't create or fake it. Although recently I was wounded by its departure, but that is mostly due to my own naivety, and perhaps somewhat self-inflicted. I'm sure she's out there somewhere. I just haven't found her yet.

I'm looking forward for 2010. There will be lot of major changes in this life. Although, one thing will never change though, is that I always be a man of certain characters... an idealist and a dreamer.

With all of those in mind, it is time to make our very own miracles.

Good luck folks!

... and good bye.

"It's late at night and I can't sleep
Missing you just runs too deep
Oh I can't breathe thinking of your smile
Oh God I wish I could make you see

Cuz I know this flame isn't dying
So nothing can stop me from trying
Baby you know that
Maybe it's time for miracles

Cuz I ain't giving up on love"
