One

I'm just an ordinary girl

trying to conquer the world.

Dreams

Where the lights were bright and we were waiting for the ladies.
He asked me. I answered.
Then he said,

"Keep the dream alive. You'll get there."

I haven't heard it for a long time. Such a quote.
I wonder how long till I get there.
How long I can keep it up.
Will my passion and my heart be strong enough, fierce enough, courageous enough to withstand the storm if it pours down on me.

As a lyrical song goes,

"Cos you've been searching for answers.
But the city screams and all your dreams go unheard"

My intangible dreams...
Like the sky I have yet to reach out to.

Speck of Moments

Quiet nights spent walking along the river, the docks.

Sometimes in a place where everything is empty, a walk tires you out.
Yet although the sun has set, a girl sat on by the pier.
The water was dark and black.
But the lights lit up the city.
Tripod on one shoulder and sling bag on the other.
All the shots were not decent. Mostly all failed attempts.
So she gave up and decide to stare out into the water of darkness.
The unknown.
The empty pathways.
Flickering lights.
Chilly breeze.
It's a pity humans can't walk on water

This time a busker stopped her in her tracks.
Something about a moment.
Staring into open space.
With millions of thoughts but she could never pick any one out.
Letting out sighs.
The city seemed so big, like the world.
And all everyone wants is...to be loved, individualistic yet collective, to be realised, to make it in this world where it comes down on you every once in a while.
Can we ever fight the world?
When life becomes difficult, complicated, frustrating...
All we can do is hope and believe in ourselves to get through it.
And sometimes with a little help.
Millions of people. But would you take the time to know every one of them?
It's a pity opportunities don't arise very often for such interaction.

Ultimate has become a very interesting sport through perspective.
A few who are very good at it, are also the respected talents.
A moment of joy led to many interpretations of care, love and happiness.
It sends a tingle and a warm feeling inside.
Back home jazz and acoustic songs accompanied by hot tea was indeed a lovely combination.
But somehow....

The chill from the rain.
Feet numbed.
Body shivered.
Fingers tingled.
Accoustic music.
Hot green tea.

Millions of thoughts.
One of life.
One of the world.
One of the unknown.
One of whys.

Its time to pay a visit to that place again.
It will be soon enough.

I'll be there soon enough.

Hmm..I don't know.
What do YOU think?

Calmity

On the way home from a dear friend's party...
I heard a melody by a church.
A spotlight on the priest, dressed in white.
There were people standing outside, mostly in black clothing.
The wind had a gentle breeze that made the candles flicker slightly.
They held it with poise.

I stopped in my tracks.
Took a moment and stood there, watching.
They sang with a soft soothing tune.
I couldn't quite hear the words but I stood still and prayed.
I didn't know how long I was there but it gave me a sense of calmity, somehow.
I prayed with a blank mind.
But I knew I prayed for something very important.
One that goes out to all.

As I walked away from such peace, this song comes to mind.

So you lost your trust,
and you never should have,
no you never should have.

But don't break your back if you ever hear this,
well, don't answer that,
Cos' in a bulletproof vest,
with the windows all closed,
I'll be doin' my best,
and I'll see you soon.

And in a telescope lens,
and when all you want is friends,
I'll see you soon.

So they came for you,
they come snappin' at your heels,
they come snappin' at your heels,
don't break your back if you ever hear this,
well, don't answer that
Cos' in a bulletproof vest,
with the windows all closed,
I'll be doin' my best,
and I'll see you soon,
and in a telescope lens,
and when all you want is friends,
I'll see you soon.

you lost your trust, oh no
you lost your trust, no
don't lose your trust, oh no
don't lose your trust

Coldplay - I'll see you soon

I think it says it all that I was feeling then.

Sometimes.....
Life is about taking chances, isn't it?

Somehow.....
We live in this bubble of ours.

Then....
Frustration grows.
We remain completely lost and unattentive.

Eventually.....
We are lost for words.
We may find the answer.
We might drown.
We could persist.
And we totally lose it.
