Friday Musings


There is no such thing as coincidence. At some points in our lives we're given the sign. The omen. It's our decision then how or what we're going to do about the signs. To our advantage.

Desire comes from the heart. The brain will try to rationalise. But desire cannot be rationalised. It can be fulfilled. The brain should work with the heart not against it. Dreams are not lies or foolish hopes. They are just reality waiting to be realised. The brain's intelligence has to be used to realised dreams.

These thoughts came to me this morning. I admit, I just finished reading a wonderful book. No wonder it's still a best seller. Paulo Choelo's The Alchemist. It was a good read. He talked a lot about heart's desire and how one should follow one's heart to fulfill one's destiny.


Love, should not hold us back from achieving our ambitions. Love should nourish the hopes to realise the dreams. Nothing, absolutely nothing should deter us from being who we want to be.

At the same time, in our haste to achieve the pinnacle of our lives, we should not burn the bridges that we've crossed. Some people appears in our lives just one time. And not anymore after that. But some will stay for as long as we want them to. And some will still be there even after we're gone.

Some relationships didn't work out the way we want it to because it is something that might happened under different circumstances. But since the situation is as it is, it couldn't and we should just be thankful at least we were given the taste of it.

There are times in our lives we would actually question ourselves whether the path we took before was the right one. But the truth is there is no one correct path. There are many ways to arrive at one destinations, it just depends on you which road to take. If the end is still the same, and we are in fact heading in the direction we wanted to in the beginning, then, we've made the right choice. The only difference is, whether arriving at the end of the road will make us a better person than before, or not. So, the only justification is, when we make the choice to follow the path, did we do it and become better or worse than before.

But the goal remains the same.

There... might be a second post on this. If I can recollect my thoughts this morning. Hah... I probably should get one of those techie recording thingy to immediately record my thoughts. Handy. Hmm... But I got an eye on that pair of boots already... Hmm...
