    If You Forget Me

    Saw this entry in Ms Johnson's Poem Of the Day note.
    Fell in love with the poem straight-away.

    Here it goes:

    If You Forget Me

    I want you to know
    one thing.

    You know how this is:
    if I look
    at the crystal moon, at the red branch
    of the slow autumn at my window,
    if I touch
    near the fire
    the impalpable ash
    or the wrinkled body of the log,
    everything carries me to you,
    as if everything that exists,
    aromas, light, metals,were little boats
    that sail
    toward those isles of yours that wait for me.

    Well, now,
    if little by little you stop loving me
    I shall stop loving you little by little.

    If suddenly
    you forget me
    do not look for me,
    for I shall already have forgotten you.

    If you think it long and mad,
    the wind of banners
    that passes through my life,
    and you decide
    to leave me at the shore
    of the heart where I have roots,
    remember
    that on that day,
    at that hour,
    I shall lift my arms
    and my roots will set off
    to seek another land.

    But
    if each day,
    each hour,
    you feel that you are destined for me
    with implacable sweetness,
    if each day a flower
    climbs up to your lips to seek me,
    ah my love, ah my own,
    in me all that fire is repeated,
    in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
    my love feeds on your love, beloved,
    and as long as you live it will be in your arms
    without leaving mine.

    Pablo Neruda

    My Blog is very unhappening!

    I was going through some of past entries of my blog and I realised that I've been doing myself a lot of disfavour by not updating it with more interesting stuff like I used to.

    The earlier entries all pulled a heartstring somewhere and somehow but the recent entries are like...Bleah...

    So, time to update this baby and make it more happening.. Will do so soon...when I compile some stuff to put up. :P

    In the meantime, bear with it and I guess it's time for a face lift? Ally will think about it.

    Absolutely, Positively, Certain that I'm not sure anymore

    The news hit me hard.
    I heard it was coming, I bluffed myself that it's not true. But it is.
    Soon I'll be left all alone to fend for myself in a place that seemed all so familiar but is totally new to me.

    While on my break, I started hearing bad news and today is the ultimate one.
    Why? I don't understand and I know the question will never be answered.

    I just pray that whatever comes along the way, this is all worth the while and I can give myself a pat on my back and say that I've done enough and it had been done well. When will that happen? I don't know. Sooner or later, time is the only one that can tell and only God above knows what is to come.

    Is this Your way of calling me back to You or is this another challenge just to make me resent You more? Time to come Home perhaps, but I don't know how.

    Grant me peace, a heart calm and collected.
    A mind of wisdom and a will that's strong.
    A true self with only pure intentions.
    Set me at ease to learn to appreciate all that's before me so that I may stay grounded.
    In You I want to trust, give me the courage...

    Another pause, another journey

    Come Friday, it'll mark an end to a special project that I never dreamt I'll have a chance to be a part of - A chance to market THE MOST prestigious arts event in Singapore performing arts - The Singapore Arts Festival.

    Frankly, I've always heard about the Festival but never really got involved in it.
    1. Tickets are too expensive in my uninformed opinion
    2. Plain ignorance in the wonderful events that had been lined up for FREE enjoyment!

    Utterly ashamed I was when I first joined, I soon grew to learn, understand and love it. There were many trying moments, testing my patience and pushing personal boundaries in my mental development. Never was a moment not worth the effort cos when I see the fruits of my labour blossom right before my eyes, I knew it was not wasted.

    There were times I question myself why am I putting myself through the torture but many things just happen to prove to me that it's all worthwhile. Incidents happened that discouraged me, there were even people whom I thought were trustworthy, simply threw me off guard at my weakest moment. But when faced with sincerity and uprightness, I got through them.

    Once again, Friday marks the end of my journey for this remarkable project.
    13 July marks a new beginning of another.
    Till then, let's wait and see what comes around. =)

    The Finger Pointing Game

    You point at me, I point at you.
    No matter how grown-up we are, somehow this finger-pointing game never seem to disappear.

    It's sickening to think that people who claim that they are professionals and even has a whole establishment under their charge but yet still resort to the finger-pointing game.
    Is it because the higher they climb, the bigger their ego?
    Is professional differences so difficult to swallow?

    Scenario:
    2 professionals, let's call them A and B, both having more than 10 years of experience in the industry
    However, they are not able to agree on something
    A insisted on having things his way
    B refused to take the risk
    B provide alternative solution
    A refuse to bend
    A was backed up by C (C is from A's establishment)
    C confronted B, not satisfied with B's answer, C lifted his fist and hurled vulgarities at B
    B did not retaliate while C was being pulled away

    And you think the episode ends there
    A went online and posted the whole incident but twisted the facts
    B is made to look like the thug who caused the problem when C was the one who sparked the possible fight

    Sigh

    B was innocent and the only fault committed was not wanting to take the risk
    Things was ugly on-site but this ugly situation should not be brought further to the cyberspace
    To err is human, to forgive divine
    To persistently make a fool out of the situation does not make one a better person but rather shows how narrow-minded one is

    My heart goes out to B who stood fast in his belief and refuse to participate in this finger-pointing game. I salute B with all due respect.

    Just a reminder to all, live and let live. Don't make life miserable for yourself.
