Cruel Intentions

            2012 was a great year for me. I've faced a couple of crossroads but I'm lucky enough to have good people around me leading me to the right path. I'm lucky to have been blessed by enough strength not to give in to other people's cruel intentions. So I am welcoming 2013 lighthearted and optimistic despite some astrologists predictions. Life is what you make it. -C

I Have My Own Pain

           I used to believe that there is goodness hidden in every person no matter how ruthless they are. But someone somehow showed me otherwise. I looked up to her. I admired her when I was young and naive. I listened to her when I was growing and learning. I respected her when I was lost and searching. But things change and the population is crowding. The competition gets tougher and everyone wants one thing. What do I believe now? That certainly, greed for power can transform a golden trophy to an empty can asking to be filled with coins. Shallow and loud.

             Your I-have-my-own-pain statement breaks my heart not because you feel pain but because you're willing to inflict pain to someone just because you're hurting too. Selfish and cruel I say. You see fairness when you let someone suffer because of you so you both feel the pain. I feel sorry for you. You keep talking about pain but I think your ambitions made you vicious and left you numb. -C
