so here i am blogging out again to pour out a heavy heart
i am watching Downton Abbey, a show on an England aristocrat family at the edge of the modern age facing the indispensable division of tradition and modern
there i went admiring the beauty of the English and how they elegantly use English in such old-fashioned and subtle manner
I guess no matter how i am boasting about me being flexible and opened, i cant help admitting i prefer the old-fashioned stuff and rather conservative on my own business
a person or a nation would lose any dignity if they deny the tradition and the heritage they inherit
anyway, that's just how I come to adore those elegant and vintage things
the point is, again, like all those times i was caught off-guard watching movie and film, some cheesy conversations just came dawn on me again and wavered me from my determination to work
"I know you will not be happy if you're not with her as long as she walks the earth"
yes, essentially it is downright to it
how much time and obstacles needed for one to prove or come to one's sense that that is absolutely the one for them and no other else
especially when circumstances are not socially ideal
in time truth will tell i guess
in time the appropriate one will prevail
and there's no point wasting my time questioning and filling myself with doubts just yet
being tested only makes you stronger
and you just have to believe that you will get the better of it
here I am again encouraging myself to head on
the blindly optimistic, fearless, clever and adventurous sagittarian
Every day I listen to my heart ひとりじゃない 深い胸の奥に繋がっている… 愛を学ぶために孤独があるなら 意味のないことなど起こりはしない♪

on hardships and joy
So I was reading article on Nieztsche and his view on hardships and challenges in relation to human growth and achievement
Apparently, we, human grow stronger after each of our encounter with challenges and hardships.
The more we seek the joy of achievement and accomplishment, the more suffering and pain we have to go through. The principle is just as conflict as our complicated nature is.
It is just inevitable. To taste the greatest pleasure, one must endure the equally greatest pain.
Certainly only the brave one who chase and survive the contest will be rewarded with priceless award.
In certain point of life, everyone who seeks personal growth and wisdom will surely experience the challenge of hardships borne on the journey to their evolution. No pain no gain. It is just as succinct as the words themselves.
I am at one of those stairs leading to one of the high rooftop I've set for years.
Maybe I've made it to the middle, maybe I've just passed 30% but the hardest 30%, or maybe I'm over 70% and nearly there.
Recalling when you climb the stairs, the most tiring point is when you are about 50%~80% of the stairs. When first started, your fresh energy easily push you straight to 40~50% of the journey. That is when the energy started to drain and the prospect of the work to be done is long and hard enough to make you feel uneasy and even more tired than your physical body perceives.
It is when your mind needs only a little stimulant of the scene of you reaching the top to continue on when your physical body really is about to give up to continue to charge forward steps by steps. When you pass that hardest part, nothing could hardly become your hindrance. You will make it to your goal.
So here I am at one of those hardest part when I started to doubt myself... but as the greatest thinkers have pointed out, the greater joy you seek, the greater pain you must endure.
There's nothing else but to believe in yourself, believe in human, believe in the future possibility and keep pressing forward. NO time to waste questioning the future. You just have to advance.
This is what you want and what you seek.
The resilient and the courageous would prevail.
Wish me luck and faith to go ahead. For the greater pleasure in life
