chill la der.

I'm blogging this while waiting for the server to update my exam result.

how many times have we said "kadang-kadang"?
how many times have we wished that maybe one day, people would finally understand what we feel inside and vice versa?

It's a never-ending tug of war and as long as both sides are pulling the rope, no one's gonna win or lose. but then again, it's not about winning or losing isn't it? It's always about wanting people to hear out what we have to say. It's not enough, never enough, but always sufficient. Just listen. Not to just hear out. Listen..

people will always have their reasons. If you say that, abide by it. try and see what they see but at the same time try to make them see what you see. it is probably the hardest things in life. letting down our egos. for some it is impossible. but is ego really worth everything else?

and you know, as i build up my walls, i learned something quite valuable and helpful. Sometimes, people being what they are, and saying what they say, you just can't take some things seriously. because if you do, you would always end up hurt, sad, angry, betrayed. Just always keep in mind that no one is the same. they are subjected to their own beliefs and understanding on things. There's always a reason for something. Taking something seriously would lead to a chain reaction and would lead to a catastrophe. we stand by our reasons and they stand by their principles, it'll just take you back to square one.

so what do you do? just walk away. walk away and come back when they are ready. when you are ready. sometimes saying less is more.

one thing's for sure though, we can't expect people to want to try to understand us. ego is a really powerful sucker.
