Love/Laugh

Funny how these two words start with the same letter. They go hand in hand. What is life without laughter and what of a life without love. Is it that illusive to learn how to laugh and love in some parts of the world that these two words does not exist anymore?

All that's left are tears, suffering and aches never ending. Life becomes cheap and death is but a statistic. Why do we fight for an ideology when such an ideology is flawed and complex with too many rules and caveats when the basic caveat that we should have is to live a full life governed by love for fellow humans and one that is filled with laughter?

Dusk....

Day's end, day's gone,

Hated Monday's tomorrow,

Most feel as I, so am not alone,

But I guess it has to come,

For Tuesday to follow,

And the weekend will come soon,

To end our sorrow....

So that the weekend will

Jakarta Floods

Bird Flu?

This was taken during the Jakarta floods in February. The guy in the motorbike was transporting a bundle of wet dead chickens behind his bike.

Asking for it?

Crossings

As we journey through life, we often cross paths with many different people and only a handful of these people mean something or anything to us. Others are just strangers who happen to walk into our way or we meet at certain intersection of our journey.

Last Friday, I happen to come across such an intersection and meeting 2 people, whom I do not know personally but they happened to be close acquaintance of a friend of mine. How interesting I thought, that this couple would sit a few tables away from me, and that I have heard of their "tales" through my other friend and yet I am a complete stranger to them.

Is there something more that fate probably has a hand in but have yet to reveal? Or is this suppose to be some sort of sign that I need to be doing something, somehow, somewhat?

But then as I tucked into my delicious oysters, I thought to myself, well the universe has always a way to work things out so, if it is for a reason then the reason will be revealed in time. So in the meanwhile, I'll just take a deep breath, to feel alive, and slow time down for awhile to enjoy the food that's right in front of me.

Joggers

On the way home today, I saw a couple (male and female) happily jogging along a busy road. Looking ever so lovey dovey, smiling at each other, flirting with each other and smacking each other in the butt ever so often to cheer each other on.

All this activity goes on with their Ipods firmly strapped to their arm and headphones to their ears as the bounce along the road like two bounding jackalopes! Perhaps they are even listening to the same lovey dovey tunes....so romantic....isn't it? To be able to exercise and yet enjoy each other's company.

But then, a thought came to me. These two fellas are jogging along a busy road, stacked with cars and what not crawling down the road spewing all this dirty exhaust fumes, churning out dusts and grime.....I mean how romantic can that be?!?!

I think, the best way to exercise and still to be able to enjoy each other's company in a cosy environment is to.......just.....shag!!!

Don't ya think so???

What Are You Doing For The Rest Of Your Life...

What are you doing the rest of your life?
North and south and east and west of your life?
I have only one request of your life
That you spend it all with me.

All the seasons and the times of your days.
All the nickels and the dimes of your days.
Let the reasons and the rhymes of your days.
All begin and end with me.

I want to see your face,
In every kind of light,
In fields of gold and
Forests of the night;
And when you stand before
The candles on a cake.
Oh let me be the one to hear
The silent wish you make.

Those tomorrows waiting deep in your eyes
In the world of love you keep in your eyes,
Ill awaken whats asleep in your eyes,
It may take a kiss or two..

Through all of my life..
Summer, winter, spring and fall of my life,
All I ever will recall of my life
Is all of my life with you.

Home

"Home"

Another summer day

Has come and gone away

In Paris and Rome

But I wanna go home

Mmmmmmmm Maybe surrounded by a million people

I still feel all alone

I just wanna go home

Oh, I miss you, you know

And I’ve been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you

Each one a line or two“I’m fine baby, how are you?”

Well I would send them but I know that it’s just not enough

My words were cold and flat

And you deserve more than that

Another aeroplane

Another sunny place

I’m lucky I knowBut I wanna go home

Mmmm, I’ve got to go home

Let me go home

I’m just too far from where you are

I wanna come home

And I feel just like I’m living someone else’s life

It’s like I just stepped outside

When everything was going right

And I know just why you could not

Come along with me

'Cause this was not your dream

But you always believed in me

Another winter day has come

And gone away

In even Paris and Rome

And I wanna go home

Let me go home

And I’m surrounded byA million people

I still feel all alone

Oh, let me go home

Oh, I miss you, you know

Let me go home

I’ve had my runBaby, I’m doneI gotta go home

Let me go home

It will all be all right

I’ll be home tonight

I’m coming back home
