I used to think it would be fun to get lost somewhere. No, you don’t understand. When I say, get lost somewhere, it means, somewhere.
Somewhere is this idea of a place that’s known. A place that’s watched. It’s ground that’s understood and covered although not by me. It’s different from nowhere. I would never want to get lost nowhere.
With somewhere, someone’s got a view from the top. And when I’m stuck in the mess of it and can’t seem to see, someone sees the bigger picture, in which I am a blinking dot. Blinking cause I’m still alive.
How much more vague can I get?
I tried lah. I tried very hard to write on this topic. That’s what I could come up with for now.
I hate all these half-finished pieces. But the more I think about it, the more I realise that my pieces are never complete and they can’t ever be because you always build and rebuild on what you know. You write and rewrite. You learn and relearn.
C’est la vie, isn’t it?

Yeah...progress and change are the great things about being alive.
My current foreign language phrase is 'suan le', which is Chinese (Mandarin?) and means 'forget it' or 'let it go'. I say it in my head when I am deeply upset about things that I have no control over.
Serenity, eh?
'suan le'... very nice. I have the phrase 'suey pien ni la' in my head. It's like, 'up to you' if I'm not mistaken.
Serenity?
sounds like "who bluffed you?"
serenity, "to accept the things i cannot change". hee...i'm finally beginning to understand the prayer of serenity.
oh right. yeah, it's a very rationale prayer right? Like, yeah, it makes sense to work that way.
