I'm back... from the dead!

This would be something that i would call as "lazy" or "couldn't be bothered" or just "blur" but my apologies for not updating the blog for some many moons or months or for what time cares... Anywayz, today is the 9th of July which the following day would be something i need to remember.... My birthday.... Sure is the most joyful thing to hear when your birthday comes along.. friends to hang out... dinner.... crazy antics... the works... but today i thought i might do some recap on my life... which i never wanted to do except if there something I wanna say that is important to me. Currently being 19 years of age and soon within a few hours i would turn into a young adult... with different things in mind and responsibilities to look after. Its not something i sought after right now... but in due time... its not a must... but its a purpose. Back when i was young... Life was simple and good... Things were a lot easier to "digest". My parents and myself would be like just living in a apartment having simple meals together. From being so simple then and now being bless with many things... i couldn't care less about how life become comfortable with the place i live in or the good food i eat (which i like) and the nice house i stay... sure its something i am thankful for and now in it, but more importantly for having a home; family and friends.

Besides on how i grew up, I thought to myself this afternoon how carefree I was, being the person who is always laughing, having good company, and living every minute of it. As we age, things change and we have move on. At first, I didn't like or i couldn't accept the fact that "I'm growing old" because I miss the good times when i was a immature kid, doing stuff that sparks laughter among peers but frustration upon teachers; the times when i had my first heartbreak, or having great memories to cherish and to think it just happen to fast in this time line. Yet, on the other hand, There's more to life than just having these great memories. Its good to cherish but it is also important to move on to the next phase in life. Most of us think that life is just having a good time... but we aren't brought into this earth for no apparent reason.. So we have a purpose you say? Yes. Positive. I think there's more to life than living large and fast (which i myself agree, do you?) but we forget the finer things in life which is to be somebody. The personification of my somebody is not just a businessman but a philantropist; not just a doctor, but a Good Samaritan; not just a lawyer but a believer in truth and justice. My point is that all we ever care is about money and living comfortably... we forget...

Personally, as i look back in my life... it was good... with challenges i faced and seeing many different faces. Truly life has its reward, being in that journey. For that, I thank God for instilling values and to guide me to continue to learn more in my walk of life. So for now... I spend a few hours being 19 and tomorrow becoming 20. To draw a conclusion of my delirious talk or yak-ing of stuff.. I think it's time to become a man... not man as in what everyone perceive as facial hair, physical look, acting like one... but being one who faces things without fear, learning to act wise and being responsible.

So as i sit down reminiscing my years... Here are some of my tales from the past, or should i say "images". Thanks all who are with me... Cheers

P.S. Blogging has commenced...
