My ThoughTs in BLUE....

Please bear with me. I have to write and post this. I’m relatively a slow learner, I’ve realized. Sometimes, I need to be hit hard with a sledgehammer for me to listen, act and learn. These are some of the things I’ve learned so far after 22 years of life:

* Yes,The Rolling Stones is right: You can’t always get what you want. But who says what you want matters? What matters more are what other people want and need.(Have,my doubts at this theory though???)

* Michael Jackson may be a pedophile, but you can’t ignore the truth behind the following lyrics of one of his songs:

I’m standing with the man in the mirror
I’m asking him to change his ways
And no message would have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Then take a look at yourself and make the
Change! (na na na, na na na, na na, na nah)


* A person is like a computer running on a Windows OS. The program is full of bugs and vulnerabilities. It’s not perfect and may stall and you may consider it as totally unreliable. Good thing is once it encounters a fatal error or you shut it down improperly, it scans and checks itself for errors during reboot. If the problem persists, you can always re-format the hard drive. Or if it’s a hardware problem, you can always replace the affected parts. Nothing and nobody is perfect and everybody deserves a fresh start.

* The entire universe operates on the law of karma. Nobody’s perfect but always make sure you’re doing more good than bad. Probably the universe will offset the remaining good things you’ve done and pay you back with something as equally good. And so since they say “To give quickly is to give twice”, you may always want to give as quickly as you can so as to always have some slack of good deeds (because you’re giving twice as much) and guarantee yourself that your doing more good than harm. But, of course, this is just my theory and not a universal law.

* Life is a series of heartaches and sufferings but never, under any circumstances, give your parents, especially your mother, heartaches. The word “mother” is not considered as the most beautiful word in the English language for nothing. Moreover, parents have suffered and feared for enough seeing their hearts walking, talking and living life in the persons of their children. Although I can only imagine how it feels like to be a parent, I have known many parents, including mine, and can see in them that certain fear for their children. So, be very good to your parents because the law of karma definitely applies to this situation.
* Love is the cure for all the neuroses and character disorders being experienced by all the people in the whole world today. This is according to M. Scott Peck’s The Road Less Traveled. I believe that.
