People Come and Go, But We Don't Stop Moving

Well, as much as we hope it weren't so, but this is life. Someone that we have loved with all of our hearts one day can, quite literally, dissapear from our lives the next. It's just simply the matter of time. Not even a death, if i can say, circumstance. Who can possibly take a best friend, a lover or whoever, never to be seen again. So does things, they come and go. Today you might have a lot of money like you can buy a nice car by cash and tomorrow you don't even have money to eat. As simple as that. And as real as that.

Indeed sometimes fact can be scary.

But don't forget that if we lose something, there must be something bigger awaits for us in the future. 

Life keeps on turning, people come and go, but we keep on going.  

What Mother Theresa Said

“Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Life is life, fight for it.”

Remember This

Hey.
I feel kinda sad never updated anything here in so so long period of time. The internet connection at home was super sucks even it has been fixed but it screws still so, anyways, i'm in the middle of my thesis working right now but i just somehow gotten myself so excited about saying something here. Don't worry, dear thesis i'm gonna go back to you as soon as i done this. I'm on my chapter 4 already anyway so please God please give me super mega boom power to get it done as super soon as Your possible way to make it (and oh, my struggle ofcourse). 

Alright. 
Sooo lately i feel so lucky cause i am surrounded with great great inspiring people which they are my friends from exchange youth alumni. It's the second year i am blessed to be a part of them and sharing our learnings and learn and learn. I am not that kind of person who learn (much) by reading, or by watching news or well if i can say, from mass media then. Well, i read newspaper every morning i wake up, i watch news on TV every night before i sleep, the thing is i don't read book that much. Which is everybody knows that book really helps you to grow and to learn things that you want to learn since book are so complete though. But this part about saying books are helping to learn and to grow somehow i found it a bit different in me. I mean, here's the thing. As i told you before that i am currently surrounded by great people, by any means that sharing things and learn from each others experiences are for me, the best learning-effective-not boring-method ever. 

Isn't it?

I mean, here, to communicate is human's way to keep living and to socialize with their surroundings, right? You can read book, you can watch TV, but in the end you will still communicate anyways either way you talk or you communicate non verbally, doesn't matter. But as i said, learning by communicate is the most effective way to learn is because you do it naturally even sometimes you learn without you intend to do it. So it's just like the more you talk, the more you communicate, the more information you can get. And it's obvious. 

So what i want to emphasize here is that don't be afraid to talk, to ask, and to share things that you feel comfortable to share with.

Cause every place is a school and every person is a teacher. 

Have a good day!

It's Good Cause I Choose To Make It That Way ☺

 Today another start has come again..

I woke up this morning and i'm telling myself from the first that today is going to be good. 

Then i started myself smiling.

By that i know that the strongest power in this entire universe is come within,

from you yourself. 

So why not keep the good power burn, every single day?

Things Aren't Quite Like What They Used To Be

♫ Cause this pain i feel it won't go away, and today i'm officially missing you..♫

People come, people go.

Life brings you down, life gets you up.

I rarely talk about love for serious this far cause i just somehow narrowly think that talks about love seems so serious and spoil, and it's all about blue feeling, sadness, heart broken and so on. 

But excuse me this time to talk about it, i wonder what is love actually?

I had a good relationship with a guy that i once made me feel like i could spend everyday with him without feeling bored at all. You know that kind of feeling you feel when you're around someone and you feel like you can be who you are and you can do anything without feeling afraid that he'll leaves you because you do silly things, you look ugly and stupid? I had that. I thought loving is a feeling of being loved unconditionally.

For my own thinking, commitment is not something that we need to make that official. Like, choosing a right date for our anniversary and you will ask will you be mine and i say yes, and we're officially being a couple, that day where we confess our feeling we mark that as our special date. No, i'm not that kind of person. For me, having someone who always be there for me 24 hours/day and having him to love me unconditionally, i love him back in return, for me that's enough. 

But maybe not everyone agree that way.

I had this thing going on nicely until realizing that relationship without commitment is like a dream without goals. It's like walking without direction, just keep going and if it's dead end, then we're dead. As hard as it sounded and so we're indeed dead.

If one person leaves, how could a relationship stays?

Things are never be as easy as a wink when one person left and just like a sudden everythings changing. Life's change, habits that we gotta left behind, everything. 

How come one simple problem could turn to a very dramatical separation? I asked.  

The anwer is yours, either it's mine yet i'm still questioning. Again, commitment that never came out from our mouth? Broken promises, or what? 

One person made me loves and i don't demand, i get hurted but i won't cry. Thought love is fair, it will be nicer in time. True love will find their way. Path. Destiny. God's way. I put my faith with them.

How My Zumi Works

I've been so into blogging lately! Since i posted one that tells about expectations, i feel like my i always have something to write/to share (even i actually not :p) but really i just feel like everytime i stay at home and not doing anything i feel like blogging and i'm um, happy for that. Universe knows that i'm not a writer anyway but i just love to wite here. Thought blog is an online diary, isn't it? Well i'm not a diary person thou, so never mind. Okay so since i never took any pictures lately so i decided to upload some pictures that i took in Halifax using my Zumi digital lomo camera. They were actually black and white with a really, really high noise but i did some editing and put them all two in one frame like this. Made it a bit blue-ish too, i kinda like it that way rather than black and white. I like how that little camera works very well with it's lomo colour instantly! Seriously if you like to play with toycam colour or lomo or old colours or high b&w or well, if you wanna play with low saturation, i recommend you to buy it. And it's even smaller than pocket size with it's unique shape and just plain cute. I really do heart it :) Anyway, seeing Tim Hortons on that wall makes me missing my old times sitting there with french vanilla and croissants and bunch of story that flows through every single bite of my croissant. So many good memories with good people that spent at that place. Well, it always feels good to flashback, not cry for the heart that is missing but smile because missing something means that we ever experienced it. It feels right.. :)
