"I love you."
"And why do you love me?"
"I love you because you're mine. I love you because you need love. I love you because when you look at me I feel like a hero. It was always like that...I love you because when I touch you I feel more a man than any other man."
"I love you too."
"And why do you love me too?"
"I love you because when I touch you I make you feel more a man than any other man. I love you because nobody could ever accuse us of love. I love you because to understand our love they'd need to turn the world upside down...I love you because you could love somebody else, yet still you love me...just me."
"Just you."
"Just you."

"I've been roaming around, I was looking down at all I see Painted faces fill the places I can't reach You know that I could use somebody You know that I could use somebody...Off in the night while you live it up I'm off to sleep Waging wars to shake the poet and the beat I hope it's gonna make you notice I hope it's gonna make you notice Someone like me, someone like me Someone like me Someone like me..."- Kings of Leon,Use Somebody
Birthday Joy
What came to pass, my birthday last 7th, it was just another ordinary day, or so I thought, especially here in Saudi Arabia, but nonetheless I tried to make it a little bit special of course by wearing red shirt, my Chinese heritage had me wear it, supposed to bring good luck and a happy day.
Early that day, much, much, earlier, just after midnight, a surprise call came in from a guy I know for quite sometime. He was someone, let's just say, I KNOW, he would come and see me every now and then, eat together, watch TV, had "fun" with each other. But I never thought he would be that thoughtful to call and greet me, I don't even remember we talked about it, and there he was greeting me and asked me if he could come that same night, and who am I to say no to that? He was ecstatic and happy over the phone.
After an hour he came and to my excitement and surprise he had with him a bouquet of red roses, fragrant and real pretty. He was beaming and gave me a kiss on my lips and a warm hug. He just made my day and stayed for a couple of hours, and me, smiling all night, which I cannot help and he was so sweet and tender that I didn't mind that I had only a couple of hours to sleep before going to work.
After he left, before I fall off to sleep, I was thinking that sometimes there are things we take for granted and yet these are the very things that would make us happy. It's not really the gift of material things, but the feelings of joy deep inside us. That call from someone I just know brought out a joy in the midst of restlessness, loneliness and non-direction. It did made a lot of difference in my line of thought. It made me stop for a while and re-think about my life, again, and to remind me to continue to find the meaning and purpose of my life.
The day went by just fine, work was the same, some officemates greeted me, and another surprise that night happened, my dear friend Ivy and Benjie had prepared a simple dinner get-together for me. Here, again, a reminder that simple things bring the greatest joy. We ate and shared thoughts and had a very nice dinner.
So my special day started and ended just as I hope it would be, simply to have a happy birthday and it was indeed.

No Regrets
Back from a month long hiatus, been busy with work and other stuff (basically nothing that interesting and most of the time just bumming around, too lazy for reasons even I could not understand), well anyway, been listening to this song over and over to the point of memorizing each line, it's called No Regrets by Robbie Williams,
I tried to recall the things I have done in my life that I should be regretting, like a movie in my mind I rewinded and forwarded each event, every memory I could search in the deepest caverns of my mind, and hoping that there are things that I did that was significantly regretable. I saw and found very few. So I tried again, same way, still the same events stood out.
You see I rarely regret things I did, say and do. One of my views in life was if I did it, I'd stood by it. I may say sorry if I hurt someone, but what's done is done and we can never take it back. Words said, and didn't say, acts done and did not done at all. Bottom line, it's a choice, we either choose what is right and what is wrong, that simple.
Whatever consequence our choices would bring, we just have to accept it, if it hurts, sulk on it and then move on; if it brings happiness, wallow in it and then off to another, again that simple.
Yes, there were a few events and things that I regret, but the harm was done and I just moved on. I could mention a few like if I could only be more closer to my father things would have been different today, or if I finished my studies my life would have been a little easier. Nevertheless, like what I just mentioned, what's done is done.
My life is not that great, but it's my life. Am I happy with it and the result of the choices I made? Sometimes, and I do try, but no regrets. Given the chance would I make the same choices I made? I may.
There are still many choices to be made, each minute, each hour and each day, for the rest of my life. Whatever choice I make, I'll stick it out and just live it.
I heard somewhere that life is too short to regret, and it is. Our lifespan is getting shorter and shorter, why waste regretting for the remaining days?
No regrets. Not that much. No regrets, not to anything, because at that point in time, it was exactly what I wanted.
No regrets / they don't work
No regrets / they only hurt
Sing me a love song
Drop me a line
Suppose it's just a point of view
But they tell me I'm doing fine
