John Oliver, Alaina Hembree ( and alright, Dio)

There is no better teacher than your own life experiences. I’m those sorts who loves to be an open book, transparent and innocent with my ideas and actions. I cannot plan or plot things consciously to do something hurtful to even the worst of people. What I forgot was that there are people who can do that. It’s such a dilemma. I’ve always been told to be who I am. The problem is if I be that self, I will make myself so vulnerable to some people whom I think are friends and land up being sad and lonely. I call it the sieving process. It’s funny how, be it relationships or be it friendships, you have to go through a bunch of sad people to finally boil down with some decent ones with whom you can share everything, not be judged, be respected and have a great time. Since all of this is probabilistic, some find a good bunch of friends too fast and for some it takes ages. I consider myself extremely lucky in this case because I do have a bunch of great friends. John and Alaina this ones for y’all. I love you both (and Dio haha) . I am glad you were born :P

I would...

I like the word serendipity. The sound of it, it’s meaning, it’s all very perfect. The same perfect that one expects and hopes and wants for one’s own life. Haven’t we all spent those countless moments being lost in the “if only” of a situation? Especially when the “if only” is associated with someone whom you’ve become fond of, with whom these recent emotions of happiness and joy, like you’ve never felt before, have started emerging, with whose existence you feel reason enough to live that perfect moment you’d imagined. That someone whom you so dearly want to call special but still hesitate because you don’t know if it is too early to say so. Love, affection and fondness are the three hot balls ones heart juggles through while keeping up its beats. Anxiety, worry and fear are the three hotter balls. Fear and love go hand in hand because of the value and preciousness associated with the person in concern. But sometimes the fear is uncalled for. Sometimes a leap of faith is more necessary than anything else. If one gets too scared of heart breaks, before even getting into a situation that one assumes to create such a conclusion, it is no point falling in love. You never will. There is all the good and the perfect associated with love but there is compromise and commitment too. There will be jealousy, there will be misunderstandings but it’s that very love that would help over power all of the imperfect. We spend so much time thinking about our “if only” that we forget about the importance of imperfect. When it comes to love, imperfect is the perfect. No one seems to acknowledge it. Including you and me. We all eliminate millions and millions of possibilities with so many people just because of some stupid reasons which if you think deeply about wouldn’t have mattered to you if all worked out well. Sometimes the practicality of a situation will be totally different from what your heart wants and that’s where I guess the tightrope walk of fear and leap of faith comes into play. Just so you know, I would take the leap of faith.
