i resoLved .. aftEr i startEd ReVisiting my bLog this year , to refRain from induLging in any fooLisH anEctidotes of my personaL Life.bEcause, As a friend of mine commented, there isN;t actually any point of writing and recording dOwn minute detaiLs of onEs Life in interNet.

i resOLve aLso to do somEthing with my haiR. because everyone sayZ its mESSy. apparentLy coMbing it doesn’t heLp.

i resoLve NOt to be decieved by appearances or by any uNfavourabLe first iMpressions. becausE it has been proVen to me that eVERyone is actuaLLy capabLe of being amiaBLe or pROvoking under differeNt circumstances and that thE meaNest Looking, sTrictEst countenanCe can brighten up wonderfuLLy with a smiLe.

whAt i think needs to be understood Is thAT everyoNe is Different. we aLL have different iDeas. DifferenT feeLings. Different ways of interacting. MisunderstaNdings are boUNd to occUr. Look, v aLL hav our pLus n MinuSes. no ONe has the rigHt to juDge anyONe.

          iS academic exceLLence ACTuaLLy abLe to guarantee a successfuL Life? Lets foCUs on the word "guarantee" here. yES, academic excellence probably doEs pLay a vitaL roLe in Ensuring a successfuL Life. hoWever the question here is, Does it GUarantee it? soMe time back, a boy managed, through his ExceLLent academic prowess to graduate into a reknowned university at the young age of 12 . THis boy’s Life ended in suicide. i think we can safeLy concLude that His Life was nOT particuLarly a success story. Therefore, although academic excellence provides a good foundation for a successful life, it does not guarantee it. There are No guaranteEs.

how LonG does it takE to become awarE of fLaws? the PerioD of perfEction can oNLy LasT SO Long. unDer good ciRcumstanCes i believe it to Last about 6 moNths. nExt coMes the accepTing n copiNg with the newLy discovered disiLLusionments.

i Was browsing the obituary sEction of the paperS>….and i came across thiS obituary of a particuLar dear DepArted daUghter … n her innumerabLe gooD quaLities. and SomethiNg about her deatH creatIng a dEpthLess Void…and thEn i woNdered wat MY obiTuary would be Like if i weRe to diE tomorroW.

an Event of the UTmost inconVenience occurEd thiS very Morning. gOIng through my morning toiLLete in preP to attend a LeadErship Training SemINaR at Ipoh IntERnationaL schooL, i hardLy noticEd the absenCe of boTh my ParEnts.. anyhoW, i dresseD in uSuaL "scHOoL SEminar" attire . meaniNg lOng panTs n a schooL tEe n weNt DOWn to prepare a breakfast of toast and cheEse. as i waS on my wAy oUt HOwever.. it occuRed to me that i had NO KEYs. n i was LiteraLLY Locked in.. imagine>> my anGuish. . .

a hoLe in a roAd is a dangErous thiNg. itS danGerouS beCause oBviousLy> some uNLucky SouL might trip n faLL into it in a momEnt of kLutZ-inEss. the afoResaid individual might Even diSsapear into d particuLar hoLe if the hoLe was biG enough and the inDividuaL SmaL enough. thIs ANeCtidote is jUst another that refers to the the uNprEDICtabiLity of Life. eVeryONE is suSCeptibLe to various evEnts so totaLLy unExpected and so totaLLy out of the bLue and the oNly simiLiarity between thEse evenTs are that they aRe altogether inconceivabLe tiL they DO occUr.
