difficult as it may be for the ego, it's sometimes almost necessary to take a step back in order to win the bigger battle. time is an advantage which i must use wisely... against you.

a woman's golden mantra to surviving a world of self serving and egoistical bastards: you can never hold a man to his words, not even if they promised or swore on it.

swear you love me but i dont believe you anymore.

On the contrary

some people fear anger because they're afraid of losing control and in so doing, say or do the things they'd never meant to do under normal circumstances.

i wish for more anger so that i could say and do the things i would otherwise never find the courage and determination to do.

The truth about love

Let's just fuck it and face the truth; the world isn't full of bunnies and willows, the grass isn't greener on your side, nor on the other side, and love isnt cotton candy, it was never and will never be unconditional, because love is selfish.

Golden rules of decision making

A disciplined yet potentially effective approach to making hard decisions. Yet, it eludes most.

1. Know the motivations behind your course of action
2. Anticipate the downside risks
3. Manage and minimize the risks

and finally, assuming the above fails

4. Damage control

A more conscientious effort must be made to enforce the above rules.

For peace of mind, rationale over emotion!

4 years on...

i find myself caught in the crossroads of moving on again - for the fourth time.

strangely enough, although i would like to think of it as moving on in life, the truth is probably more akin to moving about on the spot.

by chance i found this quiescent sanctuary of thoughts that was abandoned some 4 years ago. old memories poured in during the course of re-reading the archives, but what really screamed from those old scribbles is the fact that nothing much has really changed since.

sure, we have most definitely experienced new people entering our lives, old friends and past boyfriends exiting; but our search for the ideal partner, the perfect job, the different life remains underway, everyday. question is: are we closer to our goal than we were yesteryear?

I like Peter best!
