"life is an opportunity, benefit from it
life is a beauty, admire it.
life is bliss, taste it.
life is a dream, realise it.
life is a challenge, meet it.
life is a duty, complete it.
life is a game, play it.
life is a promise, fulfill it.
life is a sorrow, overcome it.
life is a song, sing it.
life is a struggle. accept it.
life is a tragedy, confront it.
life is an adventure, dare it.
life is luck, make it.
life is too precious, dont destroy it.
life is life, fight for it."

-Mother Teresa.

i highlighted these 4 points as it applies to me right now. but the rest is still no doubt very true. nothing can ever take away something really close to your heart. i always feel that sometimes you dont always have to be answerable to anyone else. if you believe strongly in something and it doesnt bring much hurt to you and those around you, then just go for it! life is for yourself to create and there is no u-turning back in any point of time. just make or break it.

yet sometimes, i dont even want to bother if i even bring hurt to others, sometimes i just want to be selfish and lead the life i want for myself. it's always nice to daydream of breaking out of the conventional, like: living on your own in a small apartment, flying away to another country to work for a few years, backpack across continents and settling down whenever you feel tired, be on a boat a cruise to never-ending horizons, stayover at any village you come across.

we all have little dreams of our own. but sadly, most of the time these massless dreams will never come to life as we are tied down by responsibilites. things will be different if you dont have any kin or kith on earth, or is it?

a new semester is starting soon. im all excited for the trebuchet competition my friends and i are taking part in. and also the dialect classes that is taking flight in february.

the hols is rather short and unbearable. i just cant wait for lessons to start. haha woohoo!! bring it on!! :D
