misunderstanding

When I first saw this quote, I thought it's really ironic that the person who posted this was the person with whom I had the most severe misunderstanding with.

I am not sure if the two of us will ever truly come to common understanding one day.

I too, have given up on trying to go the distance and 'fix it' in many occasions lately.

When it seems that there is misunderstanding..
And it seems that the other party has decided on taking whatever action he/she deems fit,
I just let it be and shrug it off.

Don't be too virtuous, and don't be too wise. Why make yourself miserable?
 - Ecclesiastes 7:16

 So don't be too good or too wise! Why destroy yourself? (NLT)

I never forget this verse from the first time I read it.
But it takes me so many years to finally agree with it. Now.

Jesus spoke of the weary who carry 'heavy burdens'..
I guess this is one of those heavy burdens we are not meant to carry.

It's not our job to fix all the broken relationships and misunderstanding.
Some deserve it and some don't. Some are meant to be and some aren't.

In any case, we learn that we owe no one nothing. And that way, we are liberated.
Live our life and devote our heart for the precious few who matter.

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.

Hmm..

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-
