#Positivity

This photo is taken at Bern. This city is interesting. Its old town buildings are mostly of the same color (as seen here). So when a red hot bus passes by, it suddenly brights up the scene.

Bern is historically an important city. So there is plenty to learn from if you visit its museum.
There is Einstein museum there too.
The scientist only lived there for 2 or 3 years. But since they said he developed his relativity theory there.. well, they decide that it's worth a shot to have his museum here.

The only new thing I learned from visiting Einstein museum is that.. during his college time, the bloody scientist slept with his girlfriend without proper safety measure. So she got pregnant.
I believe he would blame the Switzerland's beautiful landscape and cold winter for that.

Ah that girlfriend Mileva.. I love her!! She was so cool. She would eventually marry Einstein.
She would also help Einstein with his work as this woman, it seemed, was a BETTER mathematician than Einstein!!! That is soo.. ugh!

Well.. such a divine pair, they are not meant to be together in the end, do they?
Just like Alan Turing & Joan Clarke. Or Stephen and Jane Wilde Hawking.
So they divorced. Fidelity, it turns out, was not Einstein's strongest virtue.

I am to blame sometimes when I casually say,
"well.. I plan to do this and that with my special one, if there is to be one".
To others, it sound like I am being pessimistic. Sounds pathetic, didn't I?
Well.. the truth is I am not.

Not in the way that I doubt my ability or worth or even luck.
Ok maybe a bit on luck *joke~*

But I come to think that this thing is indeed beyond me.
Might as well enjoy the journey, whichever way it's heading.

That's why the bible has this peculiar verse:

Fathers can give their sons an inheritance of houses and wealth, but only the LORD can give an understanding wife. (Proverbs 19:14 NLT)

And this one is my favorite!

There are three things that amaze me
    no, four things that I don’t understand: 
 how an eagle glides through the sky,
 how a snake slithers on a rock,
 how a ship navigates the ocean,
 how a man loves a woman.
(Proverbs 30:18-19)

How else do I explain the failing of such divine pairs to attain their happy ever after?
Maybe as my good friend just said in his blog..

"I saw His love is a mystery, like the gems hidden under the sands, slipping into ordinary days for an ordinary man like me. "

Father

I am reading the book "Wild at Heart". One of the most striking points that the author made was that of how many, if not almost all, men are most severely wounded by their own father. You would have thought that your dad will be the one who believes in you when everyone else is doubting you. You expect him to do so. Coz when he does, you know that it ain't matter even if the rest are against you. So when it turns out that he is siding with those who doubt you. It hurts the most. It kills off your hope. It strips you off your courage and belief to be a real man. Because the man who is suppose to show you how to be a real man, the one whose approval matters the most.. does not side with you. He loves you.. yes. But a father's role is not simply to love and nurture. He is more than just that. He is your assurance, stronghold, strength. He leads you into adventure, he fights with you side by side, he shows you how to rescue a beauty. When your father of flesh and blood ca...

journal: a little update

wow I am actually back to this blog. between Apr 27 2018 and now.. what has happened? I officially proposed to my girlfriend (wah.. trust me you gonna miss that word), got married, and.. became a dad. yeah.. all in a matter of less than 2 years. now when you consider the fact that in 2015 I would not have the slightest idea how things would turn out, it just goes to show how life changes in a blink. How is married life? Well.. I am one of those who has pretty pragmatic view when it comes to marriage. I have seen enough to know that relationship is messy. So.. I must say marriage has been way way better than my expectation hah.. For example.. I knew that my wife is a smart woman. I knew some of her shortcoming too.. (and there are some I didn't know till we got married, of course) BUT... here's the big bonus. I didn't know she can be that adorably funny in her own way. Not funny like a standup comedian funny but.. you know.. she makes me laugh. Trust me....
