starting to enjoy the long slow bus rides..it gives you the time to really think and relax..away from the mrts etc tt makes life feel like its going faster than it shld..n making life seem less meaningful n colorless n basically..less lively..afterall mrts are mainly gg through black dark tunnels..

bus rides give u the chance to really sit n notice the surroundings..the slow gradual changes...the buildings, the colors, the liveliness of this fast-paced, overpopulated city..to allow u to see n feel n reflect..do u feel it?

when was the last time u really have the chance to find somewhere nice n less crowded to just sit n relax...enjoy a cup of coffee..read a book..people watch..basically just really...relax?

without having tots like 'i've to do this this this ltr..ive stil got this this this on hand to do..y are things like this n that?y cant it be this this this?'

Happiness = reality/expectations? (quotes: jodi picoult)

so to be happy...u can either:

a) improve your reality; or

b) lower your expectations?

If expectations = zero, u can nv be happy?

If expectations = infinity, u can stil feel a tinge of happiness? or isit just..

expectations/reality = hope?

If expectations more reality...u're trying to create hope?false hope?

If expectations lesser than reality..u're not exactly hoping?

so to expect or not to expect?

to expect..n i'll be creating false hope n fall even harder.

not to expect..would tt mean i'll nv be happy?taking life as it is?perhaps tt might just equate to happiness actually?

hMm..

shld learn to give w/o expecting anything in return..

'Being on the fringe is the most empowering feeling. You get so used to the world being a certain way, there seems to be no escape from it.' (quotes jodi picoult)...perhaps perhaps perhaps..reckon stereotypes exist for all scenarios..some things might just hv occured slightly differently from the norm..but when the questions start coming in n asking y its not like this etc or start giving u the pityful look or the 'are u sure its like that?if u say so' look oh so often..it'll make u think n wonder why is something so different happening to u..n its not because u're 'unique' or 'special'..

'the most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart'

how true.
