Third day of the challenge and well I have come to the conclusion that because I am looking for weird and interesting things, I am actually not finding them – when usually I always would. Dont you find that happens? when you want or look for something your tend not to find it?! So from this I will not bother looking for things and just let weird and random things come to me.
However despite this, Friday the main highlight to me was seeing one of my long time good friends. I hadn’t seen her in a while (far too long actually) but it was as if we had seen each other a few days before. We just talked and laughed like it was yesterday we spoke and I thought to myself,; this is what a true friend is. Someone you may not always talk to and see much, but you know when you need them and you do see them after quite sometime, you know they are there and you still can talk forever about anything.
So I thought I’ll share this poem, specially to my dearest friend…
So often we don’t take the time to be aware of what is treasured.
Not wealth or material things,
But how your days are measured.
Friendship is so special,
It cannot be brought or sold.
It is precious if it is brand new,
or priceless if it is old.
Friends are who you need the most,
When times are not so right.
They come and go so frequently,
You hope you pick one right.
The right one listens with both ears,
So they can be the one who says,
‘be calm and let me help’
We never forget our dearest friends,
And treat them with loving care.
If they don’t they will leave you,
When you need them they won’t be there.

Well today was meant to be the first day of my One Photograph and One Paragraph challenge – as today is the first day of February! However I completely forget; bad I know
suppose in my defence – doesn’t time just fly faster and faster these days? I literally cant believe its February already!
Moving on from my bad memory, I thought I’ll share this quote! I think specially today and in the past few weeks this is the one things I have learnt considerably and I am sure others have too.
“I used to think the worst thing in life was to end up all alone. It’s not. The worst thing in life is to end up with people who make you feel all alone.”
But sometimes you have to stop worrying, wondering and doubting. Have faith that things will work out, maybe not how you planned but just how it’s meant to be.
ALSO
isn’t this slightly disturbing art?! is it art? one could ask!
Well I think excellent concept I suppose its making a point to find beauty in decay however unfortunately I don’t think this is art. Its a photo, showing simple documentation, I personally think it takes more to make this tragedy art.
Some people are experts in finding fault in others, totally ignoring their own shortcomings. This has cost them a lot of good relationships; as such they often complain that it is hard to find a good man or woman not knowing that they are the problem themselves. So before you start looking for that perfect man or woman, examine yourself; are you perfect? Of course NOT! because no human being is perfect.We all have our shortcomings. If you continue to look for fault you may end up been lonely and frustrated.
How do you overcome this negative attitude:
(Can you see the problem here? How are the builders going to get out?! haha)
If people refuse to look at you in a new light and they can only see you for what you were, only see you for the mistakes you’ve made, if they don’t realize that you are not your mistakes, then they have to go.
Say what you mean and mean what you say. Don’t expect others to read your mind, and don’t play games with their heads and hearts. Don’t tell half-truths and expect people to trust you when the full truth comes out. Half-truths are no better than lies. And don’t ignore someone you care about, because lack of concern hurts more than angry words.
Love is the greatest feeling,
Love is like a play,
Love is what I feel for you,
Each and every day,
Love is like a smile,
Love is like a song,
Love is a great emotion,
That keeps us going strong,
I love you with my heart,
My body and my soul,
I love the way I keep loving,
Like a love I can’t control,
So remember when your eyes meet mine,
I love you with all my heart,
And I have poured my entire soul into you,
Right from the very start.
