Something To Think About.....

Something I Felt Missing....

Well honestly, I'm never good at blogging. I don't know why. Maybe because sometimes I  never had a clue what to write and other times just being busy. Or I'm just thinking that my writing are just bullshit! Nobody going to read it. I really don't mind if people don't read it. Its not really important to them. But to me, writing is a process of expressing myself to myself. I sometimes find it is hard for me to understand myself. Didn't realise how is my feelings until I write it down and start to read them back then only to notice that I am a total wrecked.

Writing in a blog sometimes are interesting and other times are so damn boring. Its like drinking a cup of hot chocolate on a rainy day. Comforting . Yes I know. But wait till the rains never stop. You just keep on waiting the sun to shine so that you can play and have fun outside. Writing a blog would be boring to you if you DON'T HAVE:

1. Great ideas to write about.
(how do you write if you don't have ideas or interesting subjects? and trust me finding a subject to write about is not an easy task)

2. Follower to response to
(This might not sound important but..... It does create an interesting elements to your blog when people give feedbacks on your writing. That is one of the way to know how influential your writing to other people's life.

3. A life.
(One of the MOST IMPORTANT aspects when writing a blog. I do love to read other people's blog regarding their life, their passion, travel and great food recipes and tips. and most of these people looks like they have so much fun in their life. Sharing great moments with the readers sounds good but what if your life is just as boring as your same old routine everyday? and then what to write. definitely people won't be interested to read about your life.

But that is not the point. These whole conversation of me writing this post is not about how to write a good blog.

It is actually for me to expand my writing skills and to write some thoughts on my life and my surroundings. Deep down inside of me, I have been having feelings of emptiness in life that I can't express it or figure it out. Yes, it hurt sometimes to think about it. What medicine should I take if I don't even know what causes the pain?

Surely, its definitely not a sickness cause by virus or bacteria. I think its actually a heart type of sickness. It will ruin your heart if your don't figure it out soon. So, I am still finding some ways to cure the heart by making a few lists that I think my help my heart to be better, healthier and happier.

Life is A Journey....

They are things that we learn everyday. Each day is a journey... A new adventure. One that we face it either alone or with family and friends....

Mistakes in life are like rolling stone. You might roll as fast as you could without realizing it and just keep on rolling along the path that it leads you to. Sometimes, you don't even know where are you heading but one thing for sure you know it going to be a bumpy ride. But somehow after a while, you tend to lose control and hit a solid wall. Pieces of you will be flying around. Smashed into tiny bits.

Well, what is left? Nothing... Just piles of smashed stones.

But mistakes are to be learn. To help you built a better sculpture from the stones. That's why you learn better by doing mistakes.

I am currently reading a book called "The Happiness Project" by Gretchen Rubin. Its sort of like a diary of the author experimenting different technique and approach to a happier life in a year. While reading the book, it give me an idea to make a list. A list of lessons learned in life. Typical... Yup... I know. It maybe sounded cliche but there are things that might unexpectedly surprise you.  Well, I already have a few things to be on the list but its getting late. Maybe next time ......
