Commenting other blogs

I haven't checked Mindy's blog for a long time. So today I decided to drop by for a slow stop. After reading her latest entries I decided to comment on it. In short was the initial idea, but eventually it turned out that I was lost in thoughts, and had so much to talk about.
I guess a lot of little things happened lately, enough to make me reflect.

The following was my comment:
Lately, I realised I've fell back on my routines. So far back, that I almost start acting like a kid. Don't misunderstand me, i've always been some sort of grown up kid, and I like to hold on to my naiveness, in order to keep myself simple. But all that is a choice, one that i'm aware off. Lately my rash and somewhat stupidious actions are not part of a choice, but mere routines.

Yes I'm lost as well, now knowing where i'm heading. Actually I have no idea what tomorrow will bring me, but I've decided just to let it go, and not to think about it. I'll just embrace tomorrow as it comes. And not bother what i might be missing in life. Because I know that I would only become more lost in my emotions and thoughts by doing that. Instead I choose to have faith decide what my path will be. Tomorrow is another day. One that I'll embrace with all my childness and naiveness.

Heh, I don't know the feeling of envy. I am too busy with myself so i am unable to notice others I guess, but I always do feel happy when people around me are blessed with happiness. And it always surprises me how little it takes to make people feel blessed. Of course how little it takes to make them feel miserable as well.

Anyway, I had planned for a short comment but it seems like i've ranting more than you did now. :)

Obviously this comment was actually way to long, and I really hope she does not mind. Then again, knowing her, she would not mind :). She always have been a lovely lady, and she probably always will be ^_^.

There's really no such thing as failure

First of all, I would like to say sorry to those who has been recently comming to my blog, but realising that I hardly update it. I was in a certain stage in life, that I found myself to busy to blog. Of course I wasn't really too busy to blog, but I rather chose to do other things than to blog.

I would like to use this entry to talk about failures. You know, there are certain times that we expect certain outcomes. Like every bit of thing we sacrafice, we demand results from it, but sometimes the outcome might be somewhat different than we expect, and that's what we use to call failure.

In a way it can be seen as a failure, but recent days I realise that this view might be wrong. The result could have been expected. It doesn't always mean, that we get back what we've invested for. If all things were certain in life, life would not be as interesting as it is. Not that I can say that failures are very welcome things to happen, but yet these are also a part of life.

Failures, are actually different outcomes. These most probably will give your life some changes, and have impact on it in many ways. It's the changes we have to face, and most of the time we can't cope with. By understanding this, we might gradually realise that we have to accept these changes, and find ways to live with it. Some of these changes might be prevented, because sometimes not all is lost. Most of them probably not, since you never expect yourself to fail. At least I hardly ever do. By accepting these changes... adapting yourself to it, you will be able to cope with these failures... gradually you can gain back your confidence, which you will need for your future success. One thing is for certain, you will succeed eventually, you just need to hang in there.

I know i haven't slept for a full night, but somehow it opened my eyes more than ever. With this new concept of failure, I might be able to face more adversaries that will be coming my way in the future. Just hope by then, I still remember these words.
