Write. Love. Life. Love. Write.

My friend or rather a close one told me that I ought to update my blog with some meaningful entry. Sorry dude. But if I were to restrict myself to just blog on meaningful stuff, it won't be a blog anymore. What you need is an inspirational book or go look for some quotes for goodness sake. As I mentioned before, I blog to express my thoughts freely. Not to filter my writing into a category called "meaningful".

I believe writing about my own life and thoughts are meaningful and enough reason for me to write. Therefore, here I am. A lag of a few days again. But this doesn't mean I will stop writing. Writing has always been my favourite thing to do. Gosh. But it's been eons since I used a pen to really write something, like an essay. So it's more like I'm typing, which is fast and convenient. So I really missed the feeling of holding onto a pen, scribbling on paper, looking at how the ink of the pen translates into my very own handwriting. Each curve each stroke, so delicately and idiosyncratically mine. Everytime I write, I create words out of a blank piece of paper. My words.

I have come to notice how easily people can take love for granted. Or how easily love has come by for some. Is that really love in the first place? Or are people somehow blinded by the whole illusion of love, as an entity that might soon blossom into something more fabulous? The truth is, people often mistake love for what it really is. Love is not an entity, nor is it an asset, or a liability. We need to take on the subject matter more seriously, yet adhere to the light-heartedness of it all. Pure love is just simple. Don't complicate things. Feel it with your heart and not just saying the 3 words.

Back to my story. And what's my story? I'm still in the process of penning it down. Or rather, I'm still in the process of thinking of the process of my story. How should it go?
Perhaps...
Once upon a time,
Happily ever after?
Just don't ever join these two together. It's just ridiculous. But I do believe in fairytales. Or at least, happy endings.
