GLITTER DUST OF MY MIND. SOLILOQUY.
As we visited the Tuol Sleng Museum in Cambodia, it was the much known for Prison of those who got executed at THE KILLING FIELDS. FREEDOM restricted. How sad could it be when you are not able to do things that you wanted to do because you are not free at all. Freedom held, freedom purged, freedom you can not even pay for not work for. Life could be so hard to be in a situtation where in you are bound to be behind barb wires, waiting for death. Even escaping meant early death. Would you just choose to wait for your turn to be killed? Or would you be bold enough to escape and die voluntarily earlier that scheduled? Life is sad when you are behind thorny + rusty barb wires like these. Can you imagine yourself being deprived of your own freedom? They were taken captive. Some did not even have the time to understand what was happening. It was not a choice. It was not even an option. More painful is when you know you do not even have an assurance that you will be able to escape and go out of that prison and the part of waking up day after day, that today could be the day you are meant to die. It is Painful, but True! We are still born blessed and that we are given our freedom to be able to do our own will. For others, it was not even a choice! Take care of your freedom, it is a GIFT!
When we get hurt on small things, the LITTLE THINGS from the people we trully LOVE, it hurts more than usual, more than normal. Like you really feel a different kind of pain, the heart feels like it stops for a few seconds and then it starts beating again.
You know WHY? This is because You both hold on to feelings and you both know you complete each other thats why you don't want anything to make the other feel pain. The good thing though is because you are each others comfort, you know how to make each other feel better and you know how to assure each other that you have love to hold on to all the time and forgiveness for each other. Forgive and Love!"- Emily,May3,2013 Trying at the wrong time will make your efforts futile. Persistence is good but wisdom is required.
Perfect example. Inside the metro rail transit commonly known as MRT in Singapore. It says no signal but you keep trying, even knowing that you do not have a network. You keep refreshing and then you get upset that you don't get what you are expecting. You expect emails to update. You expect connectivity. But you know the fact that there is no network. We are stubborn. We keep pushing. Do not confuse it with persistence. Set it aside. No matter how many times you try, when there is no signal under the ground, your efforts to refresh and keep trying is useless. Why don't you save your effort, wait for the signal to come back. Definitively when you are at places that detects the network, it will come back. Only then, you try again. Don't force it. If still unhappy, change Network provider! Hahahahah! Time to rest. Time to start. Time to stop. Time to try. Time to wait. Time to try again." Emily, 09142013 I love sunsets. It reminds me how God is so beautiful He shows his grandeur thru the beauty of the sun. His presence is always felt whenever I see the sun setting and the sun rising. Each day is a reminder, the sun always shines. Behind the clouds, it will be there. At night it is always there, you just don't see it as its on the other side. Whether you feel it or you don't, He is there. Always there.
The many reasons why I love Sunsets. This photo is taken in London, United Kingdom, from the Tower Bridge of London. |
