We've got this.

"When I first found out about it, all I did was cry. Cried at home, cried in the train, literally just kept crying anytime, everywhere.

I know that when I am done with crying, I need to be strong. Be strong for her."

That was what I said on the 1st of Jan 2015.


Today, the 22nd of Nov 2015 I found out about something else.

And all I did was cry. Cried at home, cried in the train, literally just kept crying anytime, everywhere.

I know that when I'm done with crying, I need to be strong. Be strong for her too.


I have been and still am blessed for 22 years and counting. But this year, this year in particular has been such a testing/ trying year for my loved ones and I.

I know that it is normal to cry. And I have learnt that after crying, life goes on. No, not the cliché life goes on. But more like the hell yeah life goes on. We have got to live each day better than before. And everyday that we are still alive and breathing, is a great day. Let us not countdown, but count up. We have got this okay? We got this. We got this.

Terror, terrorist and terrorism.

As usual you guys know I'm one person who states my 5 cents worth whenever I feel like I want to.

I am a nobody, just another human being with loved ones living and breathing on this planet earth.

There are a lot of things we can not and would not be able to control. Just to state a few examples: weather, climate change, diseases, world wide epidemic, poverty et cetera the list goes on.

But what we can control is who we are and how we can affect others. It does not matter where you come from, which religion or congregation you belong to, or even how rich you are.

If you are mean, you are mean.
If you are violent, you are violent.
If you are kind, you are kind.
If you are benevolent, you are benevolent.
If you are full of hate, you are full of hate.
And if you are full of love, you are full of love.

You are, who you are. Even twins who look identical have different personalities. What more a certain group of people who wear similar clothes, speak a certain language or happen to have the same skin colour. How are they exactly the same?

Well the only similar factor between you and I, are that we are human beings who deserve the right to live and live in peace.

So just because someone who has some sort of relation to you, does something bad, should you be made to pay the price? No right? How is that fair? Where is the humanity in our human race?

And as individuals, what we are capable of is how we can and will affect others. I know this is ideal and easier said than done, but if we learn to love and respect one another, it sure as hell is better for all of us.

Come on, it is everything good and nothing bad what.

To be a decent soul, does not mean that we need to agree with everyone. What it means is, "Yes, you have your beliefs and I have mine, but if ultimately we have a common goal which is for the good of everyone, then y'know what? So be it."

I am not one to preach, if any, I know so clearly some of the things I said and/ or did makes me feel like I am a piece of shit.

But it is never too late to start. Especially with all these an eye for an eye thing going on. I mean afterall, the only ones who are made to suffer are the innocent victims.

Seriously it scares me that one of these days, when things get out of hand, we or (worse still) our loved ones are THE innocent victims. Allow me to correct myself, things ARE already out of hand.

When it comes to war, there are no winners or celebrations for victory. At the end of the day, it just comes down to who lost more.

And from what I see, before the rest of us die from ripe old age (we wish), or even sickness and diseases, we are the ones who are killing one another.

Humans would be the downfall of our human race.
