letter to a friend

Hi you, ive been meaning to talk to you. but i dont how to start and where to start. so i thought i should write to you instead.

i know you read my blog, so here it is.

in life there's always ups and downs. sometimes things go your way brilliantly and you think your life is going perfectly, exactly the way you want, and you are at your happiest.

then unfortunately, sometimes, something bad and unexpected happens and you feels like the world is crumbling around you and suddenly you feel sad and in such despair that you thought you will never be happy again.

when these bad things happens, of course it is only natural for you to take some time to heal. whatever way you feel the best to forget what happened and move on with your life. some people takes shorter time to heal, some take longer.

but when does it stops being a "healing process" to being just simply "lazy" to move on?

you get too caught up in your own misery sometimes you forgot the beautiful things around you, you forgot the people who cares about you, you forgot that there's just so much things out there in this world for you to explore and do!

you get too caught up in being sad and misreable and perhaps, methinks, loving the fact that people still tip toes around you, being worried about you and you just love to soak up all that attention. you go around as if you carrying the weight of the world around your young shoulders when there's absolutely nothing to "carry".

life is hard.

yes.

but to be so defeated at such young age?

come on, put some life and spirit back into you.

life is also beautiful and amazing.

yes, really!

sometimes it feels like you're always either missing someone, or pining about previous life, previous location, wanting to go back to the past, whining about how unhappy you are where you are, always complaining about something or rather, always some sad news to impart to those willing to listen, its like the sun literarly just dont shine where you are and its just constantly cloudy and dark and lets face it - boring! like OMG, get up and get a life already!

sooner or later, your friends will get bored of this.

sooner or later, your friends will get bored of you.

make new friends, get a new hobby, make travel plans and have an amazing time doing them! yr still a student so go study and have fun studying! being in foreign places gives you endless oppurtunity to meet so many people and explore so many things! oh wow, if you could only see how great your life really is!

stop being misreable all time. you are not unhappy, you just refuse to be.

forget those little things, dont be too sensitive, enough is enough right? dont you get tired from all that misery? it takes a lot effort and you end up being to exhausted to even consider doing anything else!.

i hope im not being to harsh on you. but i know you needed to hear this. so please try ok?

go on, be happy already! (^_^)

love, hugs and kisses,
me

good dose of positivism! i agree. been there, done that. all you can do is always try to be happy. eventually you'll reach the point you don't have keep trying and you'll be happy all the time. really :-)

ps : nanti ajar me to put the song okehhh! :p

hi, i think yr a bit arrogant to assume and tell people how they should deal with their sadness. i mean, different people have different limit so i think they should be allowed to take as long time as they need. i mean what you wrote is good and all, but its easier to say than done, if you put yrself in that person's shoes.
my thoughts only :)

hi anon, thanks for yr feedback. i know different people have different limits.

but i think sometimes people gets too caught up in concentrating being sad, and by us encouraging them "take as long as you need" is just adding to the length of the misery, whereas maybe, they r not even dat sad in the first place!

and harsh it may be, and it may be easier said than done, but somebody's gotta say it!

i think we are allowed to be a little bit arrogant (in yr context) when it comes to your loved ones :)

hi nique, ive been yr silent reader quite a while, never commented before, so this is my first time :)

i just wanted to comment on the anonymous person who said you are arrogant, which i totally dont agree. did dat person read the letter properly? i mean, it was one of the most sincere and lovely letter ive ever read! it shows how much u care about that person, and u did not "arrogantly" assume anything, you just said what is exactly in yr heart. the letter was simple, straight to the point and most of all, full of love. i think if the person yr writing too, or that anonymous person doesnt get that, then its just wasted on them...

anyway, that's all i wanted to say, oh and also i just wanna say i really like your blog and hope you keep writing! :)

from - silent reader (for now :p)

hi v, um, lets just say this letter is generic, and anyone who can something out of it, that's great :) this kind of thing i see and hear all the time, it happened to a lot of people, so i thought i just say what i think - hope takde yang kecik hati or terasa hehe :)

niQue_naQ said...

thanks shhh/silent reader - hope next time u give yr real name or link :)

well, i guess the anon person feels dat why because he/she has been in that situation before, and maybe it was a bad and bitter experience and maybe people surrounding was to forceful and didnt handle her/his situation rightly - my thinking only k, cos ive been there, done that too. (quoting Annie L hehe)

everyone is entitled to their own opinion, im just writing what i know, its my opinion as it is my blog :p but im happy to get all sorts of comments, its a learning process for me too :)

glad u like my blog and thanks for dropping by! :)
