Awakening

Carl Jung:
Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart.
 Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes. 

Seneca

No man was ever wise by chance.

Is knowledge, wisdom?

Never mistake knowledge for wisdom.
One helps you make a living, the other helps you make a life.

How to live life

Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt and dance like no one is watching.

The measure of a man ....

The measure of a man is what he does with power.

Well we see people abuse power all the. Really takes a lot to "control ourselves".
Look at the financial crisis... one great example of all people abuse their power & through greed.

I choose…to live by choice, not by chance.

I choose…to live by choice, not by chance.
To make changes, not excuses.
To be motivated, not manipulated.
To be useful, not used.
To excel, not compete.
I choose self-esteem, not self pity.
I choose to listen to my inner voice, not the random opinions of others.

Risk in life, worth it?

If we wait until we’re ready, we’ll be waiting for the rest of our lives.

This is the case of people who are overly careful. Truth is, we never know what might happen next. You cant really predict everything, we just cant let fear control the way we live. We have to take some risk sometimes. So what if we fail, we always learn something from failure.

 In the end, We avoid risks in life so we can make it safely to death.

Haha.... a little cynical but how true, that's how we all live isn't it?
What's life if we don't take some risk every now & then?
It gives us excitement & color our boring lives.

When people hurt you.....

When people hurt you over & over, think of them like sand paper. 
They might scratch & hurt you abit but in the end you end up polished & they end up useless!

I love this. Wonder who's the creative person who came up with this.

*Appreciating truth

Young people love what is interesting and odd, no matter how true or false it is. 
More mature minds love what is interesting and odd about truth. 
Fully mature intellects, finally, love truth, even when it appears plain and simple, boring to the ordinary person; for they have noticed that truth tends to reveal its highest wisdom in the guise of simplicity.

 Friedrich Nietzsche

Wish one day I'll arrive at appreciating truth as it is..... simple & plain !

Some monsters are worse than others!

Marilyn Monroe said: I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.” 

This is so true isn't it? She's being brutally honest. We all should learn from what's being said here. If we can only take the good things & not the bad ones then we are sure not ready for love at all. Anyways no one's perfect, you cant put on your best 24/7. When you love a person, be prepared when she/he turn into a monster- that moment will come, can you take it?

But then..... some monsters are worse than others! Hope you get a mild one then! good luck people!

In & out of relationships

“When one door closes, another opens, but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one that has opened for us.”

I find this so true. This is a matter of how fast can one move on..... however it's easy to say , just move on- but when you are in a situation that's really driving you crazy, it's tough.

E.g a bad r/s... get out of it, you often hear & we all know it's easier said then done. But whatever it is, if the guy is bad for you, leaving him  is always better. Yes the unknown could be scary but it's still better than a living hell. So pluck up the courage & do something for yourself!
