the pursuit

have you read the book 'captivating'?
have you read a dozen of other similar books?
yes.. we get it.
women want to be pursued.
trust me.. we freaking get it.

sure.. japanese coined the terms 'herbivore' males.
it refers to men who are passive about their romantic/sexual relationship.
naturally there are carnivore type too.. even the female carnivore.
yes.. we get your frustration with herbivore guys.
and being a meat lover, i can certainly feel you.

so back to the topic..
you are the prey, and we are the hunter.
that's basically what this whole game rules imply.
while you take every opportunity to remind the guys that you need to be pursued,
i humbly encourage you to reconsider the nature of being a prey.

you are not the only prey in the forest.
you do not dictate how the hunter hunt.
there is no right or wrong way of hunting.
only one thing matters.. result. whether you are caught or not.

so.. are you embracing your role now?

the hunter has no right to complain if he loses his prey.
he has no right to dictate how his prey runs too.
but he certainly has the right to choose how, when or where he hunts.
it is a vast forest after all.

if this whole thing doesn't sound good to you,
that's probably because a prey can never see from the eyes of the hunter.
and of course, vice versa.

so while there is an element of truth in this whole pursuit thing..
I do think that there is something else that matters just as importantly.
taking the courage to step forward at times, maybe?
that would have been most captivating.

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 -_-

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...
