It is not the critic who counts;
not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled
or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man
who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly;
who errs and comes short again and again;
who knows great enthusiasms,
the great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement,
and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while
DARING GREATLY
so that his place shall never be
with those timid souls
who know neither victory or defeat.


Theodore Roosevelt

WotD (Word of the Day): Mercury

Today has been highly reflective... been trying to find out why people do things in certain ways...

What's the explanation one could give for seeing someone admirable? Is it that they have something you don't have but want to have? what's in admiration?? Why are there certain people that I look up to and some I wish I don't have to be near within 3 meters distance??

So your environment plays a vital role in your mood~ couldn't agree more...now as i look out my window, I'm greeted back with a warming glance from the wind's breeze and sun's elite~ boy, do I feel calm and ready. Ready for what time may bring..what I shall encounter by chosing the road less taken (refer to Robert Frost's poem)..

Should mercury have the property of both metal and liquid; would I slowly flow along my self_determined path while reflecting all else I come into contact with... cheers and joy to the world!

Prelude

Let's begin this year's blog with a mini puzzle.

Day by day, I should describe my life with a word...one that should depict my trend of thoughts and actions taken...

OSCILATION...

Fresh start in the morn with inspirational conversation with a friend who on every possible occation we meet/talk, would remind me to keep a positive outlook of the world....

This thought haunts me every now and then to restructure my thinking....however, in reality, deep inside there's another evil that constantly rejects to accept. Much like the battle between ID and SUPEREGO that's not yet in tune and never will be (in the furthest near future). 

The day proceeded with highest efficiency due to the strong motivation and will that urge me to get things done..just in case there's not another day to waste on this planet....as of that, much good has been done for the world. I have given 10% of me to charity, 400ml of blood will later arrive in another (wo)man's body prolonging their lives, happiness, problems, anxiety and god knows what else they will go through for the remain of their lives...

Ended the evening with melancholic mood, smoochin' into the evening with internal tear, reflecting on my status with people around me....gosh, for a moment there, i thought i was a radioisotope....unstable and at times-explosive....LOL

keep oscillating - though hope that u would soon find your balance and reach the plateau phase knowing and doing eactly what u want w/o winging life in the hand of time...as time never waits, the next thing i know, i might not have enough time to even do the basic thing - live my life*
