... ... ... ... ...

I feel that I’m staying at the crossroads recently. There' a lot of things that I need to do but seems that I can’t cope them well. So hurry as the time pass away. I’m tired, again.

Sometimes i really wonder, is this what life is going to be like? Where’s the joy I'm supposed to be having? Life shouldn’t be spent such of this way, isn’t it? It’s never a winning battle against all the things that I need to do. It feels as if i'm being dragged along by the routines of life. 3 meals a day or eat when hungry, attend lectures, classes, prepare for the exams...etc.

My mum came to Taiwan recently but i can barely find time to keep her accompany. Although she won’t surf on this blog but I would like to say that I’m sorry about that. How deep I wish to do nothing but keep her accompany.

It’s the time I need to have a break, may I?

thE misSing piEce...

Have you ever heard about the story "the missing piece"? I've read this story in a bookshop unexpectedly. It basically goes like this, a circle missing a wedged shaped piece that rolls around trying to find its mate to be complete. Here is the video about this story which I have found it on net after I came back from the bookshop as I like this story so much. Check it out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c09RmO9rIC0&feature=related
I guess there are many renditions of this story and I've also heard one using a doughnut but getting back to point, this story is very profound. I guess everyone of us is some sort like the circle, forever looking for that one thing to complete us, to make us whole. We have that longing in our heart, a sense of incompleteness. It's funny how everyone has it, as if life isn't complete without that something or someone.
Nothing more to say here, I just wanted to share this thought to the far ends of the world, from an incomplete circle to another...

the POOR elephants...

Here is the video about the abuse of elephants. Click into it and you will find that how cruel the humans can be. I get to watch this video by the commendation of my friend.
Beating or needlessly killing an animal is inhumane and will not be tolerated. This is one of the principles that we understand but it is common for us from getting the news about the abuse of animals nowadays too. I believe that there will be a large number if we gather statistics of the abuse of animals. Add to this the number of cases that we do not hear about and the numbers are astronomical.
I strongly suggest that any performance which would harm the animals in circus should be forbidden. Otherwise, such as this kinds of animal abuse can’t be prevented. Our society should also take strict laws and punishment for those that commit this abuse.

Life Path…

Yesterday, I was out with some friends who I seldom have a chance to meet them recently . We updated each other on what's happening in our lives while having our dinner. The topics revolved around university life, holiday plans and relationships with the peoples who stay around us.
From this gathering I get a shocked news, that is one of my friends will be get married soon. I suddenly realize that all of us have grown up as the time pass away. But it made me ponder for some time, do I choose the correct path for myself? It is not something you can predict with much accuracy now. No, that wouldn't be correct either.
I would be imposing on myself a list of prerequisites that are unlikely to stand the test of time. I am fortunate that time is not in short supply and I am allowed a period to wallow in. Sometimes I feel that I am walking into a puzzle of my life blindly. I don't know what I am looking for, or how difficult the puzzle is.
If you believe in fate and a destiny, then the path to the puzzle has already been decided. Otherwise, it changes everytime I make a decision.How would you know you've reached the end?
