己亥雜詩-第五首

浩蕩離愁白日斜,
吟鞭東指即天涯,
落紅不是無情物,
化作春泥更護花。

思....
留下的只是遗憾和伤感
我不想在尝试去遗忘,
也不愿意在做任何的比较
我累了,但我却不能停下来歇息

时时刻刻提醒着自己
我现在拥有的其实不少,
就因为有了贪念,
差一点把自己贬到十八层地狱去了....

ironically, materialism seems to based on things that are just not there.... and simple alphabets tt we learn frm nursery rhymes could determine our future...
just how solid is this foundation on which we build our future? how long can it sustain?
knowledge is nt just about regurgitating facts, or like what tcp said, vomitting out what we're memorised...
how much of this knowledge can we put into practice? how much of those stuff can we use & benefit mankind? how much of these can be used to self improvement? to let us be more aware of what is right and wrong, of what is true or false?

we are increasingly becoming distorted, our health, our knowledge abt life... & then suddenly when u realise that all this was built on nothing more than just e intangible, u are even quicker to fling urself to something which u perceive to be more real, something that happens to be a fad...

just what is the truth or absolute truth? so what if that was, what if that isn't? how has it improved ur life? how has it improved mine? we all pursue different things, we all have different dreams, it just some happens that some of them wandered into ur path, it doesn't mean that they have plans to take e same paths as u have trod on even though u may have shared similar past experiences....

we just live each day while we can, & plan for the future....
we meet people who lie, people who're lost, people... just people made the way they are, people who may or may not change....
happiness is tangible.... because only ur heart knows it, because u can see it from e smile....
happiness cannot be defined, it can only be felt...
some are contented with dellusional happiness, others want it to be real....

i live for the future, because the present like the past slows us down, because the present makes us complacent with what we have, we'll loose the urge to seek for the betterment of ourselves...

i live for the tangible, because i know that e future is defined by ourselves... even if a little bit of every other thing not within our control may just divert us from our course.... the future is tangible...

i live for the tangible.... i live to see u smile....
