hmm Gajaen is right now in the exam hall, doing his chem paper, and being as itchified, i jumped straight into the balled realm of Duntellya.
Ever heard the song ‘ironic’ by Alanis Morisette? ever paid close attention to the lyrics? there is quite abit of truth in it. You see, sometimes people say life is good , life is what you make it or you choose your own life. Yes its true, but no matter how much you think things are going great and everything is all smooth, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you. As Alanis sings..
"Its like meeting the man of your dreams, and then meeting his beautiful wife’
Or when you just need one little thing to make everything go the way u want it to?
‘ its like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife’
I have met many people who would do anything to be a perfectionist. they think that is the only way to be.. thats the the only way you can win the race of life. I know this, as i used to be a perfectionist as well; but the number of people i hurt on my way. It just makes everything unworthy.
But when you look on the otherside, you realise that when when things go wrong, there is always something to catch your fall.. life is not unfair, neither is it cruel.
"And life has a funny way of helping you out when You think everything’s gone wrong and everything blows up In your face”
after hearing that line. i realised, whats the use of being a perfectionist? Because you can never go against life and make everything perfect. Only God is perfect. and if we are perfect as well.. we get to be exactly like GOD.. and as if hehe.
So its better to just go with the flow, enjoy the present. Make the most of what you have, take risk. savour the feeling of satisfaction. When you dont experience any difficulty or bumps, then you are not living life. I mean imagine eating ice cream everyday for everymeal.. sounds good at first, then you gonna get sick of it. so whenever things go wrong, just step back take a deep breath look beyond the darker patch of grass, you will see that the grass is DEFINITELY greener on the other side. If things dont happen the way you plan, then that isnt the way for you. I realised this a while ago, and no point fretting and having sleepless nights because once again, as Alanis sings;
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything’s okay and everything’s going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything’s gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face.
Gajaen, thanks for helping me out like all the time hehe. and i must say, after having long chats with you, i realised all this. Good Luck!
