Head knowledge.

Here's a scenario that I think it's classic to talk about:
There's a glass of wine that's poured only up to half of the maximum capacity. Question to your perspective is: Do you see the glass of wine as something half filled? Or rather it's half empty?

Well, I've found another dimension. Regardless whether it's half filled, or it's half emptied, just be appreciative and thankful that the glass is actually filled with something, which wine in this case.

It's been months since I've talked to you. To be honest, I do miss communicating with you. Some things will always remain, some feelings will always be there for certain reasons.

All you wanted was to receive morning texts that would make ya feel special. All you wanted was someone to be a listening ear, rather than giving solutions to solve the problem. Someone who could actually be a gentleman and take the initiative to make things right regardless who is in the right, or in the wrong. Someone that you could rely on with the deepest secrets being shared. A person that would actually never leave a girl hanging regardless of how ugly the situation was, etc

These are some of the many things that I've understood at the back of my mind. However, sometimes I could only tell myself there's always a limit in giving in, it's because I'm only human with emotions too. People do get burned out and eventually losing themselves, losing their identity, their goals and plans in the long run.

I believe you've moved on, probably to someone else. & I'm genuinely glad and happy for you as much as it pinches me.  It's because there were some things that we both couldn't achieve. And perhaps the other guy have the chemistry with you.

Self-Identity

Matthew 6:33-34 : "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. So do not worry, about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble on its own."

I've not been posting my thoughts for the past few months/years. So.. here it goes.

In relation to the natural's interpretation, perhaps this meant to me as finding self identity in my perspective. Seeking in something that's within you is important. And that is because it moulds the core fundamental value within your own personal lifestyle. And that actually reflects in the society as who you really are as an individual.

One reason why people are feeling dead even though they have everything they need in their life would be the lack of self identity. Basically moving with the flow of life without challenging oneself to break the norm. It creates a status-quo atmosphere in us where progression is a gradual or declining curve.

It is human nature for everyone to have the need for affiliation, a community in where they can feel connected. Likewise in a micro perspective, self identity is vital for essential survival. Be it in any circumstance, scenario, etc, we all need to find a purpose in what we do, in what we feel, in what we desire. And that basically means embracing an intrinsic motivation for something, also known as, passion.

The biggest failure in life isn't about failing to achieve goals despite countless of attempts, but the biggest failure is actually succeeding in things that doesn't even matter to us at the end of the day.
