As time passes, I begin to acknowledge its presence and how it plays such importance in a person's life. Without time, who are we and what are we?
When we are so free, when time just ticks past without us realising, how beautiful it is to just be carefree and all about our own world.
When time hits us in the face and sticks the note "You're late!" be it for an event, for work or simply anything, we rush for time. When all the while: time has been there - ticking at the same pace!
Time has always been fair; it is us who have paid less attention to it, hence the struggle we face at the end of the day. The "I wish there's more time.." phrase will be ringing through the air.
So when time is not on our side, let's make the best of it while we still can. Before time runs out. For real.

Careless
The week was a really holiday break. Life practically stopped just for the fun of the festival and I forgot about everything else except living the best of the week.
And of course, the consequences that come with it.
Somehow too long a break can reduce the effeciency of the brain and I end up being very careless with almost everything which lead to dissatisfaction of mind.
With the currect change in the cycle of life (supposedly new year has begun), productivity is to be enhanced. Less of the bad, and more of the good.
The future, I can't predict. But all I know is that someone's holding me to face it. With that, I trust and live in faith.

Valentine's + CNY
Who would have thought - 14 Feb: such memorable day for lovers and Chinese folks. Not to forget the birthdate of many friends I know of born on that date.
I recall few years back while in high school of which Valentine's Day was the most anticipated day (aside school holiday breaks), and as it's not a co-ed school, even higher anticipation when certain people walked into classrooms and called out names to receive gifts.
I believe Valentine's Day is not just about lovers buying gifts for each other. Even friends can honour each other's friendship by simply acknowledging their presence. Simple meals to remember the first time friendship was made, the happy and sad memories spent together, and so forth. Not to forget, it can be a day to surprise parents with an extra taste of love in everything we do. :) Somewhat similar to Father's and Mother's Day. It's simply a day to love.
Chinese New Year: the year of the tiger. Roar. Not that it has any significance to me, it's just another year in the chinese calendar where prosperity is hoped to flow and blessings showed from on high. This year CNY will be rather quiet with less people around, relatives and friends all going off for holidays/studies. (I agree with leaving for holiday - since economically, it is heading downwards.) Sometimes a quiet new year to spend with close ones is much memorable. :)
So how's it going to be? As the date draws nearer, let us celebrate - with LOVE! :D

What next
With the recent theft case to kick start 2010, aside from turning a year older, it was rather ridiculous to get me down on my seat the whole time.
The case brought me so down that life felt some fear and injustice. What came next was nerve-wrecking, madness.
The thought of being kind was pushed, the heavy weight of responsibility crowned upon. Who else would have felt that would be next. Changes.
Life was not good, but it was never that bad. Optimism.. call on it and it will return to serve you. Hard as it is, one moment to cherish - one season to cheer.
The sun never fails to rise each new day, so does God never fail to love the sinner no matter how he hates the sin.
