•••Dreams Vs. Goals•••

Every morning as we lay in bed we create a mental list about the things we want to achieve at the end of the day.On average, 87% of those persons actually complete that list leaving the other 13% with a little some thing called "unfinished business"

Each person has goals and dreams which they manufacture to accomplish. Similarly,some are contented and do overcome the hurdles and are successful while others laze around waiting for a miracle.The one's who aren't as motivated like to blame "life" for their failure.Sadly,they believe life is on the opposing side and loves to throw them curve balls.When in fact they should blame themselves for their misfortune.However goals and dreams aren't the same.Shocking?

By definition A Goal is the result or achievement toward which effort is directed.In other words,when one makes an intention to gain something the end product is termed a "goal".On setting a goal one should decide what he/she really wants in the end and then work backwards in obtaining it.

A Goal should be:

1.Specific 
2.Time bound
3.Realistic
4.Measurable
5.Achievable

On the other side of the are the opposite of goals.Dreams.A Dream is a fantasy that cannot be pursued or obtained [a visionary creation of the imagination:by definition].Its not a problem to have these dreams but we must realise the fact that the chances are that they become reality are very slim.We shouldn't live our life hoping that our dreams come true.Sometimes we face the difficulty in not seeing the difference in them.We ideate that are "dreams" are goal and we fall short in achieving them leaving us aiding a wound of failure.

In a nutshell,we should have realistic dreams that lead to goals in the near future.Nothing is complete until hard work,dedication and sacrifice is made.

Mistakes Can Be Forgiven...Right?

♫♪▫▫▫♪♫It’s all my fault today,♫♪▫▫▫♪♫
♫♪▫▫▫♪♫I'm sorry for the way I was to you♫♪▫▫▫♪♫
♫♪▫▫▫♪♫It’s all so wrong you see and ♫♪▫▫▫♪♫
♫♪▫▫▫♪♫I'm sorry for the words I say to you♫♪▫▫▫♪♫
♫▫▫▫♫But if you ask me I will do anything for you cause baby I need you♫▫▫▫♫


Couple years ago you walked into my life.Surprisingly,in a short period you became my everything.Tangled up in you I was.Hearing your voice,first thing in the morning and last thing before I go to sleep.Talking for hours on the phone.Our senseless conversations.Watching late night  movie's together.V-chatting till the sun rose.Those were the time when reality took a back seat for a while and we were left to enjoy the moments.The moments that were timeless.Little did we know  that our expiration date was approaching.

Our time was over without even muttering the words.The signs were present tho we didn't pay heed.We thought things would work out as they always do.As the tide rose so did our patience wore thin with the unanswered calls and delayed replies to messages.Of course it wasn’t on purpose but we needed a breather from each other.Loyal you were to keep on trying to save our bond.However I was weak, and it showed when I called quits on you.A lot of things can go wrong in a relationship tho it's how you solve the matter that determines the rest the relationship.
                   BUT it takes two persons to work it out...No?
I admit sadly that you were the bigger,better person between us.You tried your best to stick it out with me and in the end I wronged you and put all your hard work to vain.Due to my carelessness I put you through a lot.I can't take back how I hurt you but I can assure you that with our new friendship we'll make it through.This time upon realising what I had lost I'm sure I won't let you walk out that door again.That is the consequence upon realising what you had when it walked away and trying your best to obtain it again.

Does A Broken Heart Ever Really Mend?

Once upon a time,people believed in love...


Before words were spoken,He drew her hearts,
Before telephones were created,He wrote her love letters,
Before cars were invented,He walked miles to see to her,
Before door bells were introduced,He threw pebbles at her window.

Then worlds were spoken for expression,
Then telephones were created for communication,
 Then cars were invented for transportation,
Then door bells were introduced for attention.

After words were spoken,He said mean words to her,
After telephones were created,He called his next girlfriend,
After cars were invented,He drove to the bar,
After door bells were introduced,He rang all the doors in the neighbourhood.

In years to come He will realise...
No words would express his heartbreak,
No one will answer his calls,
No car will carry him around the world,
No door will open with opportunities.

Finally,He would realise what he had and pine for that which he can never have again...

"Fren-emies"

I must confess over the past four years I’ve seen good people, bad people and unimaginable people. 

  Never would I have guessed you were a unique monster whose purpose was to destroy. We all invited you in with welcome arms when you were left to sit alone. We made you one of us in a short period of time. We made you apart of our little family. Without a second thought, we accepted you with all your perfection along with your flaws.  At no time did we expect nothing in return rather than trust and friendship from you.

  Little by little you divided us so when your plan of action was to commence you shall be victorious. Congratulations, phase one was successful. You poisoned innocent minds. Your victim unfortunately didn’t want to believe what was happening at the beginning. She stood by you, protected you and portrayed what a real friend should be.

   Sadly at present, she cries night after night upon hearing your hurtful speech.  Such hurtful, nasty words roll of your tongue one after the other. Do you even care? Doesn’t it click in your stone heart that the way you treat her is wrong? If it doesn’t I really don’t know what kind of dreadful human being you are!

  Going through life is hard. To make this road trip more enjoyable we surround ourselves with amazing people to make us smile each rough day. We call these people our friends and best friends and the list goes on. Along with these people we gather the “haters”, the people who make the most difficult of days simply more unbearable. Finally we equip ourselves with those “fake friends”, those haters who disguise themselves as our friends just because of their selfishness.

  Can’t believe such people exist! [-.-”] They exist to make life more complicated and just confusing BECAUSE they have nothing better to do with their lives. At least that’s my thought on it. Seriously, “who takes the time to build some one up then just destroy them with the blink of an eye?” 

  To my dear “imitation friends” please note this well, but true friendship can withstand the strongest of storms. The hurt you have caused the innocent shall be avenged by justice. 

***:::... [Don’t get angry when the monster you created don’t follow your orders, it’s been programmed by the creator]:::..

...:::[Best friends don’t exist because no one is perfect]...:::***

Unkown resident...

Every so often "the one" comes along and your heart skips a beat once more. Frighten to admit and face the facts that ...I think I've fallen for you. 

It's funny how it happens in a second or just over a simple conversation with the words, "I missed you"

Holding my breath as butterflies infiltrated my tummy. As if you were present, next to me, my pores rose, with the vision of you wrapping your warm arms around me, holding me tightly and safely. If only my night time dream could come true.
 
Do you remember that night you told me you missed me? I do, like remembering the route home. I never looked at you in that way before. However like the lightening signals thunder and rain, I took that as a relationship blossoming.

Thou as time went by, I realized that I misinterpreted you. I didn't know you were still torn up about her. Hurt and alone I consulted my best friend who taught me I should just be there for you. Taking his advice, i stood by you making you laugh and reconnect the old you. Once again I misunderstood you. The more I tried  the more it seemed to backfire on me. You became sad at times and won't even talk to me about it. I wish we could go back to the time where you would have opened up to me and I would heal your wounds.
"Time heals all wounds"
You may not know my dear, but you have crossed my wall. Unknowingly, you are  present in my heart at the moment. I hope you realize what you mean to me before it's too late...

Love or Lust?

Once upon a time fairy tales existed. Love at first sight caught our eye. Initially "love" wasn't just a word. It was a passionate, affection towards another person. It wasn't just about the physical traits. It was deeper than the ocean depths. Initially "love" wasn't just a word. It was a passionate, affection towards another person. It wasn't just about the physical traits. It was deeper than the ocean depths and could not be imitated easily. 

  Unfortunately, times have changed and the customs of yesterday have been cliqued to fit the “modern” day lifestyle.  “Us” kids take for granted what we commit to.  
       [“I hear you ‘dealing’ her?”    “he is just a ‘fling’ ”    “I am with the both the both of them to see who I get gain “IT” from”] 
  Isn’t that how SOME of the youths think today? Do you want to know how they developed this mentality?  I blame the society in which we live in and also the kids themselves who are easily influenced by the crowd.
How come almost ¾ of the relationships between teens end in heartbreak, suicide and sadness? Teens believe they are “ready and mature” enough to be more than friends with the opposite sex. Personally I find no fault in that however who are we to determine when we are ready? Do we ask our parents, our family members or our peers? No one knows my dear readers. No one… 
When love hits us, it’s like being hit by a bus. “An unexpected rush of “floating on air
perhaps”  
  Another thing about love to take into consideration, love does not just happen in a split second. Bonds between persons must be formed and the infatuated feeling does not just go away after some days or after a simple rejection. It’s also a build up attraction to someone over a long period of time.  Don’t go around collecting hearts to put into a jar for show. If you care for someone a lot make sure what you are doing is the right thing for both parties not just for our beneficial.
When it’s love you just know folks…

My missing puzzle piece

  Have you ever gotten up one day and it's like "trouble knock'n on your door? It seems like as soon as one problem is resolved another rings the door bell. Well my friends, your not alone.☺  I know everyone has their bad days and thinks no knows what your going through. Unfortunately, we ALL face the dark side of the world. It's never going to be bright and sunny with rainbows decorating the luminous sky now is it? No matter how much we try to live good,befriend everyone and avoid enmity some fool has to come and prove what a fool "He/She" really is. 
  Some one you thought would be there has abandoned you forever. You wish you never see them again but yet  they are constantly on your mind. You wish that some one brings them up so you could just talk about them. I really wish you could have lived up to your responsibilities and be a real dad.However we're suck in this great big world together. Sadly I crave to go back  to the past where the happy times were and relive them to the fullest. As it turns out, they were limited.

As the clock hits 12...

   ''For last year's words belong to last year's language And next year's words await another voice.And to make an end is to make a beginning.''  
                                                                                                         ~T.S. Eliot

     There's a moment of reflection while in converse with close friends and family.We recall those memories we cherished for 2010 soon to be 2011.As the clock hits 12,  the sky filled with luminous fireworks that catch our eye, greetings are shared throughout the room and within seconds the New Year is upon us and just like that, the date has changed to : January, 01, 2011.


    However, before this remarkable moment impels us, the household is in chaos:Decorations are being put into place, the aroma of delicious food spreads about like wild fire,everyone is busybodied trying to add their special touch to make this night a memorable one only in the hope it will set the mood for the proceeding 11 months, 30 days.
     This year to invite the New Year I'll be reminiscing with my family at a gathering their upholding. As the tail goes: "You must wear your red undergarments for good luck" Hence I'll make sure to pack my red undies.Also they say that your supposed to make some resolutions.
The purpose of these resolutions is to just live better as a person than you did in 2010.

Here are some resolutions I think are reasonable:
1. Spend more time with family and friends
2. Seldom bad habits such as smoking and drinking 
3. Learn something new for example swimming 
4. Be organize 
5. Enjoy life more fully

What's your resolutions for 2011?
