KAWAN - KAWAN

Friendship takes effort.


With that said, let's get cracking!


  • Write a letter
  • Send a postcard from wherever the hell you are
  • Surprise visits are awesome (most of the time)
  • Pick up the phone (or get texting, if you're not that into phone calls, like me)
  • Plan something, anything, together


No man is an island.

STATUS UPDATE : CATHARSIS !



I'm guilty of following my friends' lives via Facebook.
Been checking up on how they're doing, what's going on in their lives.


Facebook can never substitute real-life interaction.
I still prefer to see you than to write on your wall.


But there's no denying that it's useful.
There's so much you can find out in a span of minutes.


I'm also guilty of indulging my emotions online.
People (including me) vent, complain and bitch on FB. All the time.
Yet it doesn't really matter what other people write on a SOCIAL-NETWORKING SITE as long as you don't actually take it to heart.


I have friends who, in my opinion, take these things way too seriously.
When you really think about it, it's kind of silly to get all riled up over some cryptic, shadowy, one-sided status update / comment / whatever form of BS it takes.


Writers of supposedly ambiguous, finger-pointing sentences are just cowards.


If we can't face up to the perpetrators that are the cause of such angry online outbursts in real life, and instead choose to console ourselves by telling a bunch of virtual friends that 'YOU' are so-and-so, then we seriously have a problem.


Lets ask ourselves these: 
What do we gain by it? 
Does it help you (and everyone else subjugated to reading it) in any way?
Do these people of whom we write about 'get it'?


The Internet is a powerful tool that is at our disposal to disseminate what information we deem suitable.
Shouldn't every sentence that we write on this powerful tool result in a positive, an possibly enhancing, outcome?
Honestly, I'd rather read status updates that are peppered with inspirational quotes than read about how you're annoyed at this person and what a bully he/she is and how you JUST CAN'T STAND IT ANYMORE.
Do something about it, dude.


Let's take our lives out of the virtual cocoon it seems to be stuck in.
Face our demons head-on, in real-life, face to face.
We'll be way happier and satisfied. I guarantee.

WHOA



I'm going to keep the fact that I've fallen madly in 'like' with you, a secret.
Because it makes no sense, not even to me.

YOU NOT EXISTING KILLS ME



I know that God has plans for all of us.
I know that.
I believe that.
I really do.

But I'm just so tired.
So very tired.
I don't want to wait around anymore.
It's not working.

Don't tell me your highs and lows.
I don't want to be the only one who listens.
I want my own story to tell.
Don't I at least deserve that?

*Shit, this post has a lot of 'I'*

I don't like it when I'm emotional.
I feel weak; I look stupid; I seem human.

I don't think you're there.
Maybe you never were. *God how depressing*

I don't think I'll ever find you.
Then I am the fool.

I want to go away.
Away from the idea of you.

I AM STEADFAST



I have come to a point in my life where I know, with absolute certainty, what I want and who I want it with.

I don't want to waste anymore time I have left on something that I know won't work.
And I know it won't work because it is not something that I want.

What I want may seem far-fetched and ambitious to you, but I'd rather spend my time looking for it than waste it on something I have to settle for.

I don't care if you think I'm being silly and naive. That doesn't change how I feel about this. It's my life.

I am wasted on you. So stop.
You can't push, shove or weasel your way into someone's heart.

The heart wants what it wants.
