Revelatory Betrayal

I know a girl. A girl I imbued myself in. A girl immersed in disorientation. A girl musty with hypocorism. A girl languishing in self-piety. A girl with tears so devious, I couldn’t decipher her wiles. A girl with a conscience that sucked me in; only to devour me. A girl who feigned solidarity to lean on me. I’ve been made a fool by such a girl. A girl, who spread her love like a prostitute desperately in need of money only to discover that she cannot pleasure her buyer. A girl who built a space shuttle of promises in me but it exploded upon launch. A girl, who wanted me to share her sorrow when I was happy but refused to surrender her happiness for my sorrow. Betrayal is not a stab in your back. No. It’s a fully fledged plunge directly into your heart when you are blindfolded. Trust is that blindfold. Although it leaves a massive crater in your chest the reality of it eludes us; we try and plug the bleeding hole with reasons, discernment, sense and rationale. Nothing can heal it be...

WHY?!

There was sooooo much promise this season and yet again here we are fighting for relegation with 4 games left. What makes it even more ridiculous is that we had 2 MESSIAHS in charge of the club this season alone. Sigh...miss the days of Bobby Robson.

Define Love

It is no secret that love is the most sought after feeling for us. Everyone yearns for it, some with discretion and most with desperation. Looking around us and we find people falling in and out of love with ferocity; determined to secure the love of their life through a acclerated filtration process. I had a friend who told me once, "Well..i liked her alot but it just didnt work out between us" and I asked him,"How did it work out in the beginning then?" and he said," I dont know da, it just happened." and again I asked, "How?" and he said," I really dunno da..sigh..I feel like drinking." And every guy knows that alcohol is a great conversation killer and starter. Man is a flawed creation who that seeks to either embellish or polish that flaw. We seek perfection in routine but fail to realize that love cannot exist in routine nor perfection. Can love be defined? I can like a woman's smile, laughter, character, personality, butt a...

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....

Too lazy to write..Came across this story...enjoy... Law of the Garbage Truck One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were driving in the right lane when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was really friendly. So I asked, 'Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital! 'This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck.' He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on you. Don't take it personally. Just smile, wa...

Happiness...

Happiness, so indelible right after a depression. We all know that the greatest happiness that is felt in life is preceded by utmost sorrow. Happiness, probably the most acclaimed of all emotions. One question though, which is greater? Happiness that come from within or happiness that permeates into us from others.

Trust...Double-Edged or Pure?

Trust. An idolised (revered, only 2nd to love) ideal that remains just that. Trust is a twisted emotion isn’t it? We sometimes trust people that we never quite thought we could ever possibly get along with and form relationships that we cannot quite place. The relationships we have are conceptualised by society - Father, mother, sister, brother, aunty, uncle, grandparents, friend, boss, colleague, wife, lover etc. Our relationships are clearly defined for us from stage to stage. A colleague can progress on to be a friend, then possibly a lover, maybe after that a wife and, given the current trend, end up as an ex-wife. However, once in awhile we meet someone whom we find impossible to fit into this rigid relationship structure. Someone we know we can never let go but we know we have to. What do we do then? Trust is the foundation of a marriage isn’t it? Every sane religion preaches trust as the key to till-death-do-us-apart marriages yet divorces escalate alarming. I do not judge but...
