Death in 2009....

Dealing with death at a start of a new year is never a good thing, with all the hyped up cheer of starting a new slate, things could take a 180˚ twist to being sombre with just few simple words of 'i'm sorry...'..

we could condemn death for having the worst time management ever, but that would be just plain stupid wouldn't it? i mean, how can we blame anything which has always been unpredictable from the start of time?

i've said this many times before in this blog and in my other blogs, death is nothing to feared. Despite it's nature to come uninvited, truth to be told, we have been unconciously expecting it whether we like it or not. None of us are able to say 'i don't wanna die yet' and goes on living forever until they're ready to give up on life. No, death itself is a master to everyone's fate.

A lot of us out there still gets frightened just by thinking about our own demise...why? mainly because we haven't achieved half of what we want to do with our life, we haven't seen enough of the world and there are still things that needs fighting for. But even with this in mind, even when we have accomplished what we have intended to do, no one is fully ready to embrace death in all its glory. that's because...we are only humans, the envy of all the fallen angels, the offspring of those banished from Eden, and the victims of greed. yeah, greed...that's all what it comes down to.

humans just can't be satisfied...the need to want more never ceases to stop, instead, we tend to 'want' something as each day passess and as it accumulates, we too are eventually burdened with the unnecessary baggage which in the end, results in the difficulty of letting go of this materialistic world....

geez...i shouldn't be rambling on this topic at all, but it's just hard to ignore it when it happens...

ciao peeps....

counting days to 2009...

Couple more days to go until the new year approaches, and there's something about ushering in the new digits...new year entails to having a makeover, or a new lease at everything :).

There isn't much to say about 2008, aside from it being a year full of mistakes, stupidity and foolishness. a year dominated with confusion, heartaches and pain, but also a year where i finally stood my ground and fortified my own self to be a better person hahahaha.

But despite all the bad experiences, good thing did come out from it. i got to know crazy and intelligent people who never cease to amuse me with their sarcasm and wit, and people who are matured enough to know their limits and childish enough to have fun hahaha.

One thing for sure though, the experiences i gained in 2008 are what i may call a lesson for a lifetime. all that has happened has made me a few notches wiser in certain areas and detached in some hahaha.

As i browsed through my whole year entries, i realized that i've been too caught up with something which was never real in the first place. i was stuck in a fantasy where i thought that things would eventually work out the way i wanted them to be, but that's just it..a fantasy. then again, reality is what you strive hard to make it real and going through all those hardships is an indication of being in the real world.

I could list down all the things i've learned in the whole of 2008, the good and bad and pros and cons of everything..but after giving it much thought, it wouldn't exactly make any difference :).

So what do i have to say about 2008? well, YOU SUCK! hahahaha and i'm really looking forward to your predecessor..the new and improved 2009 :).

Ps: ignorance is bliss..... To all: MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY BLESSED NEW YEAR!!! ciao peeps :)..
