Zixian wans to go New Zealand for a hike. And he asked. I was ???
He didn't even find out the budget...how on earth can he be so indomitably eager to go there? Hmmm though it is such a dream to be able to go there and visualise that moutainous ridges and evergreen pastures with the horizon stretching to eternity. Movies from LOTR , as well King Arthur flood by mind with scenes of celestial entity.
It is such a wonder that places out of this island can be so captivating and the plentitude of that beauty is so consuming that i really wish i could one day juz get out of this stifling community of inconsiderate, ignorant, sycophants......and juz immersed myself in those beautiful natural beings.
Frens said that i am inert, that i should take the initiative to know more gals, be them strangers or from frens. It is not the fact that i am resigning to fate.. What is fate when destiny is carved out by the Lord Almighty? I guess, inert isn't that right a word to use here.
Occasional coincidental acquaintance with a gal from friends is fine with me. Does guys always have to take the initiative? Does gals i know always have to be that irritating? What happen to those demure, sophiscated gals? I am not saying that gals should be "docile" or even "volatile". I believe they should juz react approriately at approriate times....
Why do some gals take joy in toying with ppl's feelings? Have we reached an age when roles are switching? That gals take the roles of cassanovas? That guys have to go to the point of drooling over sexy, bewitching gals? Skin-deep versus inner sanctified beauty? which one will you go for?
I never deny that i am one of those who at times fall into the traps of superficiality, that i do look out, and stare at the pretty faces that sashayed on the orchard streets. Appreciating beauty is what i am doing, and not the obsession with beauty.
If only gals out there can think likewise, that they can look beyond build, look beyond appearances, beyond profiles, too really look that someone from inside.
