This ship


Friendship? All aboard!!
How do I cream and butter friendship?
How do I whip and smoulder it on the faces of people I would like to proclaim this wonderous ship upon? To take a step back and reflect, friendship is so sacred in so many ways. Rasulullah for example regard highly of his loyal friends and had promised the utmost pleasurable heaven. King Arthur and his knights. Jesus and the twelve disciples. Beyonce and her two anonymous singers. Fifty Cent and Eminem.The fellowship of the ring. Huh? The fellowship of the ring? *mind you, I regard LOTR as important history*

Friendship, for me, personally, is something internal, external as well as eternal. Friendship is a bond of understanding created by content and decision. Friendship is a ship in which it sails around the world(in the context of life). It has its shares of storms and heavy rains but remarkably, (as used profusely by the Most Extreme Videos narrator to indicate a living survivor) it will get back to the shore or, or, or sink. Two choices. Glory or Defeat.

Nothing in between.. So I will take friendship seriously and will try my best to maintain friendships. Sometimeskan, my ~the grass is greener on the other side~ attitude bugs me so I'll put a halt to that when it comes to this special ship.

And to those who don't appreciate friendship, I can only wish your real name to be Tanggang, win a free trip to Langkawi by StarCruise, caught in a storm and sink.. Dang, I had just written my birthday's wish.. So now YOU KNOW....

On a happier note, I'll be going to Sabah on Thursday. On a sadder note, I'll be leaving Sabah in a week. On an angrier note, I hate being a nomad. On a calmer note, I'm half finish reading Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian.

well for one, generalizing me is an insult. secondly, i change for the better.. so give me a second chance lah.

oh ya, I want to make things clear, i had limited my interaction with girls for my own good. (we're adults already kan) so if you know who I am is quizzical of my non-involvement with girls macam dulu-dulu.. Now you know...

your sarcasm is mediocre by the way, i teach lessons you know..

::kid::
i'm sorry but i prefer not to discuss personal things here since ehem,, you know lah why..

barru-baru nie my uncle pun bg warning pasal entry Sultan tu,, takut o..

your strength, which can also be your weakness is you always think you're right.

maybe it's time you really "change for the better" and start to think about other people's opinion, and not think you're the most correct people in this world.

and, one more thing, you can't really "teach people lessons" because it's not your job. it's God's.

you're not God, you know.

its my strength nonetheless.

its also my weakness..

your weakness as shown here is cowardice.

what are you afraid of?

you know who i am said...

sometimes you need not show who you are in order to show other's weaknesses, for fear of unnecessary retaliation.

as saidina ali said, "look at what he/she said, not look at who said the words."

observe. and reflect. did you or did you not appreciate friendship?
