The last and final blog post for the month of June ‘14. So it has been quite a great month for me, i
don’t know about you but it definitely has been for me. Once more, you should know that this blog
post has been delayed a day from schedule. Truly sorry for that because i wasn’t feeling too well. It
doesn’t matter now since today will mark the very last blog post and god knows when the next one
will be especially when i’ll be very busy with school. However, if you love reading the post on this
blog, you can still access it as per normal as i will still be updating it almost every single day to
ensure that you receive the best experience while serving on the blog. Afterall, it’s still the first
next-gen blog at your fingertips :) Just like any other ending you see in most movies, it tends to get
rather emotional but oh well, let this final blog post decide the outcome for you. So let’s get on with
it! Today love is in the air is it, or not? The title says it, to hope is to believe. I believe many of you
have had lots of aspirations and goals in life up till this very day but perhaps have yet to achieve it,
the fact that you believe in these aspirations and goals will mean a certain amount of hope being
placed onto it already isn’t it? People always say these two words do not link one another, well
yeah that’s true in terms of it’s spelling, number of letter and blablabla. Hahaha! Undeniably we
tend to place too much hope on things in life, be it things we want, the things we think we will get,
the people we look to get in our life and all sorts. Then you start losing hope when you don’t get it
2. right, the exact way you want it to be isn’t it? Well, that’s common for us humans. So today i shall
share with you another side of me rather than the old plain and boring life i got, well if that’s how
you see it but i definitely see my life that way apparently - real boring and nothing to really look
forward to. It may seem as though my life is a mess but honestly i don’t really know. It seems to me
that i’m apparently getting what i ask for. There’s always a good and bad side of the story so yeah
let’s end this last post with something much more interesting. People ask me why don’t i fall in
love? “Oh you’ll get someone really good and that you deserve someone better in life.” I hear this
sentence from people around me lots of time, well i bet you too have heard this at least during
some point of your life.
How true has it really been for you? For most, i bet they’ll say apparently the answer is true. That
sentence fits well in their life. Then there are those who say, “Enough with all these crap, all
guys/girls are the SAME!” Too much emotions poured out in just that sentence, that’s what i see,
just too lost in life to see that the world is so much brighter in so many ways. Unless of course
you’ve met every single person in this world and you say that, well then i have nothing to say. This
post will seem rather more interesting to those who aren’t with anyone in life. I ain’t gonna say
that i’ve not been with anyone in my life, well come on, most of us have been there through good
and tough times with someone, of course at my age it shouldn’t come as a surprise. The purpose of
this post isn’t about exposing those who have made my life miserable in many ways and all, but it’s
more of appreciating them too - the other side of things, how it has changed me, the way i see
things now compared to how it was a few years back has totally changed a whole lot i must say.
Sometimes i wish it used to be the way like how it was in the past but then again, i’ve been really
thankful for those times because i would have never been where i am today if not for those
moments in my life. From the people i’ve met, be it those whom i’ve loved but never once knew
about it, to those whom have tried being there for me but it wasn’t all a happy ending and etc. I’m
talking as though i’ve been through so much, well maybe i have. Enough to make me a depressed
guy. Why depress? The answer is simply because i placed too much hope. Hope has been the
number one enemy in my life but it has also been like an angel. To the extent that i don’t even
wanna place any hope on anyone. Life’s been great and it has been cruel, but that’s what you call
life isn’t it. You have totally no life if it has been all stagnant and constant throughout. Hahahah. I
always ask myself whether have i really been really happy all my life. My answer will be no and
that’s never because i haven’t met anyone who could make me really happy but simply because at
this time now, there isn’t really anything to be truly happy about. Maybe this leads me back with
the ideology of hope and believe. I believe many of you should know what i aspire to be in the
3. future and what i look forward to doing. Maybe that’s going to make me really happy in life
because i’ve achieved something really big that i long to attain since young. I bet some of you must
be asking me, how long can that happiness sustain? Well here’s the truth, you don’t really need to
be with anyone to be happy but definitely having someone in life will make you much more happier
as it seems but it doesn’t mean you can never be happy not being with anyone right?
If you were to ask me what makes me really happy? I’ll say the people i meet makes me happy. All
of you out there have your fair share of story to tell. Some of you may not be in the best of mood
because of what may have happened in the past, be it sad, angry, depressed and all sorts. It’s really
interesting to meet different people who are unique in their own way, the life and story of every
single one of you are the things that actually provide me the boost to look forward to every new
day. It’s not everyday you meet someone new isn’t it? Since you should know from my previous
blog posts, i told you how much i cherish and appreciate people in life no matter how terrible the
time has been with the person, there’s a reason to everything that happen right? Even how terrible
things has been, i’ll always have that something good to say to you and for that matter show how
much i appreciate your existence. The people who leave a terrible scar in your life are apparently
the ones who’ll change you, maybe you used to be someone who loves to give in and all, until
someone had the guts to take advantage of you for that personality you have, to the extent that it
doesn’t bring you and good anymore, you inevitably change perhaps unknowingly. It just happens
some time. That’s how my life has been too. At the end of the day, you’ll see how much you miss
every single person. Not everyone stays in your life forever.
4. Even if you are married to the most loving husband/wife in life, someday someone leaves because
one has to go first to leave this world. You don’t really need to leave a person by saying goodbye
tomorrow, but nothing remains the same. Although i’ve met many people who have said their
goodbyes to me simply because they’ve met better people in life who are worth keeping, i still have
to find a reason to continue living. I know it gets rather tough at times, some even promised to stay
and all but ends up leaving. Sad but true huh. Of course i’m not saying all these past experiences
have made me lose hope entirely on love and all, but it just seems to be something that used to be
rather exclusive in life or i would say something so special to something that seems like a norm.
Then there are those who fall in and out of love, you see this person with someone whom they used
to say to each other, i’ll always be there and blablablacksheep and that very next moment, they’re
with someone else and they say oh it’s true love. It’s all normal to the person falling in and out of
love but when those who are just too busy trying to find their true love sees how reality is, they’ll
just be too afraid to even put hope. Well, what i’m just saying is that there’s simply too much in life
than just being in love. No one says it’s wrong to be in love unless of course your parents start
nagging and telling you oh you are still too young to be in love and all that, well please remember
it’s still your life, if you know how to juggle your time and priorities well, then it’s all green. It
shouldn’t pose an issue for you. You see, it takes some time to understand people, you don’t just
find someone out of nowhere who apparently appears too from god knows where, and the very
next moment end up being together. That’s what you are seeing, and that is reality for you. How
certain are you or in fact how confident are you that you know the other party really well that if i
ask you what does he/she likes and dislike, you can very well answer it right. Finding time, devoting
a portion of your life to that person, providing a listening ear and all should be where you should
begin with. Unless of course you are in love because he/she looks gorgeous or stunning. Then you
tell the person ‘Oh no, i fell in love with you because of your personality/character and never about
looks.’ Are you confident either one of you got so interested with one another because of
personality/character or simply because you see this person looks charming and cute in which gave
you a driving factor to engage a convo. I don’t know, you tell me. Or some of you just are too afraid
to be alone because you are too used to being with someone else who would care for you and be
there when you need someone to rely on. For me, you don’t say finding a partner, trying to really
find a friend who i can really rely on is already a struggle. I’ve gotten too comfortable trying to
survive this life alone well with the exception of my family. At times, i’m just too afraid to fall in
love. God knows what’s in store for me.
At times, you simply have no choice but to let go off the people who decide to leave you because at
the end of the day it kills you terribly inside. Well maybe it’s good for me to take some time off or to
5. take a break with how life has been for me. I’ve learned to let go much more easily, put lesser
hopes on people and definitely been trying to keep myself or i would say my mind busy with things
like studies. To how i enjoy studying wasn’t because i really enjoy it but it really helped me forget
about certain things which i don’t really want to think about more easily. The good thing is that i
haven’t totally lost hope in love but what i’m certain is that i’m seriously taking things one step at a
time. Perhaps it’s just not my time and all. I’ve been coping quite well in life alone but well things
will definitely change, and although i really hope for someone who i can really rely on, there isn’t
really much to say on that for now. It’s the same as i’m giving too much hope once more. So yeah,
there’s simply more to life than love. I hope that for those reading this post, take some time to think
on how being with someone will totally change the way you are. I just don’t really want you to be in
huge disappointments in life especially when you have so much going on in life already. I’ve
definitely seen people totally lost hope in life because they placed too much hopes on love. With
that, i’ll just end off this post by saying how thankful i am for the people whom i’ve met up till this
day, to those who are still around and also to those whom have left to move on with life. I can
never imagine how my life would have been without having met these really important people.
Every single one of you would have probably meant alot to me but yeah, in life nothing stays
forever. I hope you guys had a great month in June and for many of you, back to school! I hope you
look forward to my future blog posts which i will update more in the future through twitter and all.
So i guess this is goodbye for the month of June! Thank you for reading this post and most
importantly, for your support on keeping this blog alive! Til then, have a great one! Goodbye.
p.s I wish there’s more things in life i could look forward to.
