Chances and Changes

"Don't be afraid to say 'YES', when there's new thing and you face changes, people always go and say no but sometimes changes is good."

- David, Pensioner

I met him, on the train between Wollongong and Sydney. An old man who have a lot of experience to be shared and to be told. He asked me to sat next to him and he's been telling me a lot of story of his life. Might be a lonely man but I could never forget his advise to me. Thank you, wherever you are, I hope you are well.

positivity amidst desperation

"I'm sure, there's nothing good in the future. But I want to make sure that I can experience it myself 'till the end. From now on there might be pain, But the pain proves that I'm alive"

- Yamazaki Shu, character from 'Yume no California', screenwriter: Okada Yoshikazu

No matter how bleak the future might seem or how bad everyone say it is, it's still better to make sure of them yourself and face forward with bravery that you yourself muster. I am envious.

Truth Versus Opinion

"There is no truth, only human opinion"

- 2pac shakur, singer

I believe so.

Quirky quirky

Inherent Distance

If there is a creator, He surely made this planet too large.
Because of this, little cowardly humans have a trouble.
We don't know how to measure the distance between us.
There are 6 billion humans on earth, but
because the planet is too large,
they are all alone.
They are all desperately looking for the one with whom they don't need any distance.

-- Arakawa Under the Bridge - Nakamura Hikaru

This is how this outrageous anime hits all my right spots. Perhaps we are lonely until we choose not to be.

Labeling personality

"life is not easy, draws close to the pain"

- doujin, Doopee

This came from a Japan doujin so what's the true meaning on it, I still am not sure. But for a do-m like me, this strike me to the core *giggles*

~tokie~

a proud do-m?! XD

Stripping bare

"I'm not dead just floating
Underneath the ink of my tattoo
I've tried to hide my scars from you"

- "I'm not dead" - Pink

Sometimes we just wanted to look strong for others to see. We tried to put on our battle shield though it is full of cracks. But no matter what, your friends could see through that.

yeah, not dead... not strong enough yet.

~tokie~

Be brave and stand up!

"Is it really necessary
Every single day
Making me more ordinary
In every possible way

This ordinary mind is broken
You did it and you don’t even know
Leaving me with words unspoken"

- "Rain" - Mika

Sometimes Society decides what you should do and how you should thinks, then you found yourself tied by it. Honesty and freedom are things that you will have to pay with sacrifices.

But none the less I will keep on striving to create the me that I like
