How mind works…

Saturday, May 27th, 2006

I am wondering.. how can our mind be so subjective? Why not a single person be a 100%-objective person? Why?? Imagine, whenever someone tells you, esp if the person is so persuasive, at least 0.99% you will be affected by his opinion!! That tiny amount does count! Even though u still can keep your objective mind, the echo of the person’s voice is still in your mind!! Geez.. imagine if the person’s voice is so vicious!!! That is why, the wise always say keep away from the unwise person, since he might affect your thinking… I reckon, what it says is true. No one is purely objective… unless you are a saint and very wise person :)

I wish I can become more and more objective (yet not perfectly objective, cos i aint a saint) :)

Change in me

Tuesday, May 23rd, 2006

Yesterday, I had a chat with my friend. Here some of what we were talking abt:
H: "Ros, guess you’ve changed lately?"
R: "Really? Hm.. how different am i now?"
H: "Dunno.. looks like you’re more sensitive? Anything happened?"
R:" Hehehe.. o yeah? Nah.. nothing happened. And dun think I become more sensitive now…"

Well.. I reckon, what he said wasnt totally wrong. I do change, I reckon that. Yet I’m not more sensitive :) as what he thought. What makes me change is that, now I let my heart to be more open, expose it more to others. I used to build a brick wall around my heart to prevent any injury on it, so seal it from any hurts. Yet, now I let it being exposed to the ‘bugs’ of feeling. I think that is why he sensed that Im more sensitive, in a way? :P hehe
Now, Im not afraid of being hurt, cos realise that where there is happiness, suffering/sorrow will always be there, just like Ying and Yang. Where there is positive, there will always negative. So I cant avoid from one of them. Moreover, I now realise that everything is impermanent, so there wouldnt be such thing happiness-all-the-time, unless I’ve found the true happiness (which Im trying to practise towards it.. TRYING to.. :P ) Somehow, sorrows and hurts can also help you to improve wisdom, and also craft your personality (hopefully towards better one) =)
Hehehe.. so yeah, here is the new me ;)

Always be happy, friends!!! Seek the happiness within, not without! =)

Family

Sunday, May 21st, 2006

Im watching a korean series atm, its called Goong. Its a nice and entertaining story, telling abt love, family, and palace. Watching it, reminds me of my family. I feel soo empty in my heart. I miss my family, esp my parents, sooo much… Cried though.. hoho.. dunno why, suddenly this feeling hit me so badly. Seldom do I have such feeling, yet i just did.

It might becos my cousin’s family is here now. And it reminds me of my own family. Somehow the homey feeling here ‘disturbs’ me.. dunno why.. but it does. It doesnt mean that Im not glad they are coming, but just feel like Im the outsider. Cos Im not their ‘direct’ relative, so yeah, couldnt get that close to them that much. Sort of there is a gap between us. Makes me feel uneasy, somehow. Like usual family, they do cook meals. I have no idea how I should put myself during these meal times. Confused what Im saying? Hmm yeah, me too, dunno how I can put into words what I think. I know, everything is actually my mindset, it might not the real truth. When they’ve cooked the meals, I dunno if I should take my plate and easily eat the foods cooked, or just eat when they call me to eat… And yet, they dont really straight away invite me to eat, or ask if ive eaten or somehow.. It makes me difficult to put my position… And it disturbs me… Making me miss my family soo much… cos when my mom around, maybe it wouldnt be like this…

Frankly speaking, I dont really feel my place is a home atm… I reluctant to go back home lately… for a reason Im not clear yet…

Dunno if what i feel now is somehow affected with my body system, like hormone or something.. but yeah, its what i feel now…

Fragility

Wednesday, May 10th, 2006

I just heard from Yuli that a friend of us has gone back for a moment cos of a sad news: her 2nd brother passed away. What a sad news!! I think it’d be hard for her… suppose her brother is still young. I emphasize the ‘young’ word. Cos this shocked me.. it shows me that life is so fragile. You cant tell when u r gonna leave this world forever… Yep, indeed. Every second of your future is uncertainty, yet your death is.. We everyone eventually will die.

So, people, my suggestion: cherish each moment you have. Do what you wanna do, dont ever hesitate, follow your heart. For myself, I dont want to waste my time and try to pursue what I think is important… :)

Life is fragile, so appreciate it… Life is beautiful if you can see it in that way :)
