not april but an april fool's joke " too many cooks spoil the broth" a very famous quote. notvery sure it applies now but yeah. trying to hard to be someone. trying too hard to do something. pushing too hard. pushing too far. in the end all it ends up with is failure. a negative result. one that could only be diametrically opposite from what was dreamt of. the irony though, is that the result had always expected. being nobody to someone yet trying ignore the fact and acting as if it is not the case. what an irony. sometimes we try looking back to the past wishing that things were the same now as then. the cruel joke however is that things in the past were never as good how they were imagined. in fact what we were looking at was simply a mirage of what we believed to be there. just as in a dry and scorching desert. we rush towards it and then we realize that all we dive into is dry heartless sand. i used to tell zhi wei that when one door closes there will always be another open. it is just a matter of whether we choose to see the open door and stop staring at the closed one. yet it is possible that the biggest problem is we never realise that the door is closed in the first place. despite running into it so many times. despite our mind screaming to us that it is no longer open. yet the untrustworthy heart ever insists that it is wide open. and the fool keeps running and slamming running and slamming running and slamming. till he bleeds from the impact of a solid cold metal door. and then he gets up and starts running and slamming all over again. what a fool! and then the biggest joke of all is i am that fool. no more.. no more.. even a fool is wise when he realises he is a fool. (adapted from proverbs). no longer will he bang himself. no longer will he stand trying to force his way through the door he did not realise was shut. beginning from scatch is difficult. but i am glad that i don't have to start from scratch. at least i still have a number of bricks already there. and i am very very grateful to have them. :) i'll make every second count; 9:19 PM |
