Pucuk Dicinta Ulam Tiba

Pucuk dicinta ulam tiba. An Indonesian saying means something you've been waiting for in a really long time (or not) suddenly come true when you least expect it.

I was talking and playing around about boys with my friend, Sheila, earlier this afternoon, at Jameson Intercon, after we just had our hair cut. And then she said something about this Pucuk Dicinta Ulam Tiba. I can't remember exactly how she said it, but what I get from her is that if you expect something to happen a little bit too much, you think of the every little details as possible, then it won't happen.

It's kinda true, but happen to think about it again, it doesn't exactly goes like that. Hope + Effort = Realisation. So if you're hoping for something, and then if you do a real enough effort to make it come true, then I think nothing is impossible. Hey, after all dreams and hopes are what keep us moving, what prevent us from taking a knife in the morning and stabbing ourself on the heart, what make us eat breakfast and go to school, what make us alive.
Dream a little dream! Don't dream it's over!
Why don't I just take the mic now and sing in front of an uproarious crowd? haha

Hey! =p

Honestly I respect this, because the balance of life has always been my perspective of life. I do still think that most of the time you'll get what you want, only when you're being spontaneous, though not too spontaneous XD.

It's quite obvious coz' high expectations will result in stress, which causes you to be focused and unfocused at the wrong things. As human beings, we shouldn't limit ourselves to our own expectations, the world isn't that small. Doing everything we want wouldn't be human anyway, it wouldn't be a balanced life, such as living a succes without sleeping would be, or dating without having friends.

Aniwayz, wouldn't life be boring if we would always get what we want? Besides, what purpose would that give to life? ;p
Sometimes living without wanting anything is so much more relaxing BD ~

hey yah
i agree on your last point there
life would be sooo boring if we would always get what we want
and living without wanting is sooo much more relaxing
but sometimes i can't help myself from wanting something i absolutely cannot have, and sometimes that motivates me to make some real effort to get it
and when i do (which at most times i dont haha) it feels soooo good BD
thanks fo droppin by =]
