Appreciation...


Is it a norm for human being to take one another for granted? Doing what is known as an usual will never be entitled for a merit prize then! Sound really illogical but in this brutal society of ours, it is basically a daily practice, especially to the person whom you regards him or she to be your closest ones.


Stars are always there, hanging brightly and sparking in the dark sky. However, how many of us really do lift our head up to appreciate their beauty? Looking up is just a gesture that barely uses much of our strength and yet, one always takes it for granted that they will always be there and what is so special about it, it is just star after all… That is really a sad comment and an approach to construct ones’ life.

A friend of mine back in Japan was always saying that his spouse do nothing and don’t really bother of him. And when I ask why is that so, he said that it had been 13 years! Is it getting too used to one another makes us adopt the negligible behavior to others? These are the group of people who required more attention instead.

If there is anyone out there who happens to read my blog and empathize with what I am saying here, it is time to show your close one that you care and appreciate it! May it be a kiss on the cheek or a warm hug, it does matter. When a crack is form, it will never be the same again…

  2. ya a crack is a crack,there seems to be no way for admentmends or repairs when its too deep or the crack is too big, perhaps only the artist of his own works knows how to hide it beautifully.A crack remains a crack only when nothing is done to it, sounds logical right?Thanks to the word repair,at least the crack is not that much visible now.The word repair has always been in my dictionary but sometimes faces difficulties in hardly come across circumstances, and thats why take a longer time to heal when the repairer is at the same time facing other difficult problems though she knows its her most important problem.And other phrase, hopes its helps, when you have an illness, always eat the right medicine prepare for you by the person who cause the illness.In chinese,theres a powerful phrase : 解铃还须系铃人。Dennis, theres is a way, hope you see the way.

  3. 另外有办法就是去了解问题的由来,问自己或她为什么会这样,不要停留在问题的存在。往往小女子本身是觉得是出在个性的问题。人会随着岁月而成长,就因此性格也会慢慢改变,一个人说的话也会不同。朋友,不要难过,每个问题一定有解决的办法,包括你的在内,是的朋友,相信自己也相信我好吗?

  4. I believe that being together is also being aware of each other. For me, I won't just simply see my other half drift apart from me and do nothing.

    Conversely, I hope my other half will do the same.

    This is what it meant by "takes two hands to clap". We watch out for each other.

    Be there for each other, make an effort to date each other even after being committed, spice things up once a while, keep the fire going and most importantly make an effort to be aware of each others' ups and downs.

    The time I realize I am letting things slide and let it be - is the time I know I am taking things for granted. And I will take things into my own hands to make things right for me and my other half (if any).

    A conscious effort. A concerted effort. can sometimes speaks so much louder than "I luv u".

    Cheers Dennis!
