good morning sunshine!

those pitchblack freezing nights are when you gaze up into the sky and stand in awe of the galaxy. you'd never thought the sky could hold that many beautiful stars and not burst. i'll miss those 5pm winter sunsets, the cheeriness of the service sector, the biting chill that greets you each time you step into the open, the hospitality of our hosts and not forgetting the sumptuous delights that we've feasted on. but nevertheless, i'm ready to leave these pretty sights. i've indulged in enough fun, joy and laughter to tide me through.

home is where the heart is.

it's time to get down and dirty, join the rest of workforce. it's like treading on a minefield. everyone seems so disillusioned and disheartened.

You close your eyes when you cry. That's ok. Just don't keep them closed too long. Things have become beautiful since you last looked. There's nothing more to cry about.

i like that. because it's so true. especially now. oftentimes, we wallow in our selfabsorbed sorrows and grumble about the plight that has befallen us. but when you think about it, this was what we dreamed about not too long ago - our utopia. then reality came crashing down and this fantasy fell away like fish scales from our eyes. the sweetest dream turned into the biggest nightmare. shattered, you cuddle up and cry... but it's not so bad. wipe away the tears and lift up your chin, the sun is out again and reality is almost like the beautiful picture that was once painted in your tiny little mind, perhaps just a little rougher around the edges.

but that's what makes life special... isn't it?
cos no two rough edges are the same, and no two lives run along the same path.
