Acceptance

Friday, February 17th, 2006

Watching my most favorite TV show, Smallville, got me to
wonders. Clark and Lana’s relationship has been going down the drain because Clark was holding back about telling Lana about his
secrets, that he is different.

 

The part that always attracts me about Superman series is
watching Superman trying to fit in as “normal” human. What kind of issues does
he have trying to be a normal human? How does he deal with friendship? How does
he deal with love, relationship? Etc. Knowing that an almost invincible person
searches for an identity and sometime struggles being a human makes me somewhat
relieved that it is “normal” to have doubts trying to fit in, to go on living
with the rest of the world. I know Superman is a fictional character, but it is
still kind of nice for me to watch all of that. Emo2ly_2

 

I guess every person in this world at some point will have
to face that battle trying to be accepted as a unique individual. However, I
think and I believe that the hardest battle a person will ever have is accepting
his/her own self and be happy with it.

 

A friend once told me that you need to like yourself, you
have to love yourself to be happy, and everything else will follow. If you’re
happy with yourself and if you accept yourself the way it is, no matter where
you are or what situation you’re at, you’ll always be able to fit in. I guess
the whole idea of fitting in is feeling happy about being yourself in any surroundings.
If you’re already happy about being yourself, then wherever you are, you’ll
always “fit in” Jy13_1

Of course social pressure will always be there. There will
be time when you think you’re expected to be just like everyone else. But that’s
not true, it is okay to be different, it is okay to be unique, and definitely
it is okay to be you. There will always be doubt, questions and uncertainty; that’s
normal, and I think that’s where friends and families fill in the blanks. A
friend does not force you to be different. A friend is someone that accepts you
the way you are, so you just have to take the first step in recognizing the
individual inside you and accept it. Then gradually you will be able to project
who you are as is. It will be hard to accept another person when that other person
has a lot being hidden, right? Wek2

 

I too need to learn a lot about the stuff that I said and do
it. You are not alone ……….. Smiley_beer

Alone

Wednesday, February 15th, 2006

"I am in one of the bussiest place in the world, yet I’ve never feel so alone"

I forgot where I get that quote from, but there are times when it is so true. Have you ever notice what kind of face that you make walking down the street? Are you smiling? Are you putting a sad face? Are you looking as if you’re mad? Of course it will change daily all the time.

Well, now, what other expression did you remember of other people? Did you even notice at all? I personally usually don’t pay attention at all. I sometimes don’t even remember any faces that I met on the street. I may not even look at any at all. So, doesn’t that mean I was all alone out there?

I had a conversation with a friend of mine, and we talked about those moments where we just sit on a bus and do practically nothing, or walk just to get where we want to go, without doing anything else. Sometimes I feel those are moments where it’s all just for me, the moments that I have just for myself without doing anything, before having to do the next thing in the agenda. The simplest few moments that keep me sane, that gives me a break from the rest of the world. So maybe it is true that the moments strangers met, it’s actually the loneliest time, or perhaps it was an intentionally chosen moment to be alone. You decide …

"Can you understand that to loose something is to gain something else?" - Sekai no Chuushin de, Ai wo Sakebu (Crying Out Love, in the Center of the World)

This has got to be the saddest series I’ve ever seen. It’s romantic, but very hard to watch, since it’s heart breaking. But anyway, what I quoted above is mostly true. You always gain something when you loose something. I takes a while to realize it, and it’s up to you to know what you gain as well.

If you like romantic and sad movie, this one’s for you. But don’t say I did not warn you before.

Miserable

Tuesday, February 7th, 2006

"You don’t like yourself, but you admire yourself. You can’t help admiring yourself cause you think you’re special. You make yourself miserable so you feel special.

Making yourself miserable is not making you special, it only makes you miserable" - House M.D.

Well, the quote might be off, I’ll revised later :p
