This is a post that I grabbed from a friend! A girl who have experienced much more than I have of happiness, joy, excitement, sadness, pain and any other word that describes a feeling =P After reading this, I realized that if everyone remember just these slightest things that seem insignificant in our lives, this place we live in would be much more pleasant =) okay... now i sound like some freak trying to tell everyone that all I want is world peace -.-lll Anyway you get my point...just read it and you will know =P
P.S Thank you Charisse for letting me have this post! ❤
I know P.S is suppose to be at the end but whatever =P
MOST OF WHAT I really need to know about how to live, and what to do, and how to be, I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sandbox at the nursery school.
These are the things I learned: Share everything. Play fair. Don't hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Don't take things that aren't yours. Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody. Wash your hands before you eat. Flush. Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you. Live a balanced life. Learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work everyday some.
Take a nap every afternoon. When you go out into the world, watch for traffic, hold hands and stick together. Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed in the plastic cup. The roots go down and the plants go up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that.
Goldfish and hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in the plastic cup-they all die. So do we.
And then remember the book about Dick and Jane and the first word you learned, the biggest word of all: LOOK. Everything you need to know is in there somewhere. The Golden Rule and love and basic sanitation. Ecology and politics and sane living.
Think of what a better world it would be if we all-the whole world-had cookies and milk about 3 o'clock every afternoon and then lay down with our blankets for a nap. Or if we had a basic policy in our nation and other nations to always put things back where we found them and cleaned up our own messes. And it is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go out into the world, it is best to HOLD HANDS and STICK TOGETHER.

Basically I am doing nothing at all, besides moving my fingers over the keyboard and typing this. I love the silence in the house, no one talking, just the breathing of the house and the constant ticking of the clock that is right beside me. In two more days, it would be school time again. I don't know whether to think about it as a good thing or a bad thing. I just hope that it would be a great last year of high school for me in Vancouver as I might not continue my studies here. Many things have happened and it made me ponder a great deal whether it was the right choice to come to Vancouver to study. There were many times when I thought I did the right thing and also an equally copious number of times I thought I did not. All I know is if I continued pondering about this I would just contradict myself over and over again. I think I shall just leave it as it is, time will tell things and I would make my decision later. I shall put this dilemma at the back of my head for now and just enjoy what I have at this very moment.
For everything you have missed, you have gained something else, and for everything you gain, you lose something else - Ralph Waldo Emerson
I gained the satisfying feeling of relieving someone's burden but for that I lost myself. When I look at the mirror, that person in the reflection is someone I no longer know.
At times I wonder if I relieved the burden or just made it worst.

Hello new year! Bye bye 2008!
For last year's words belong to last year's language. And next year's words await another voice. And to make an end is to make a beginning.
For once I'm not making any new year resolutions at all. No more list after list of resolutions for me!
Making resolutions is a cleansing ritual of self assessment and repentance that demands personal honesty and, ultimately, reinforces humility. Breaking them is part of the cycle. -- Eric Zorn
P.S I'm craving for poutine! ❤
