Carpe Diem - easier said than done for a self-professed procrastinator. But for the love of my life, I finally keyed my first sentence, then the second, and the third... as a recording of memories I'd want to remember, good or bad, a gift from Mommy to U - Dear Baby En

"From Baby En to Baby Kang, both my darlings, equally precious. May this journal keep u company, when Mummy can no longer be there......"

Is it Too MUCH?

How much effort can a person put in for his work?

How much effort can a person put in for his friends?

How much effort can a person put in for his father/ mother/ brothers etc?

How much effort can a person put in for his wife?

How much effort can a person put in for his child?

110%, 110%, 110%..... for the last two, any value is TOO MUCH. (perhaps the numbers may not be that accurate but the message is clear - that it's easy to be taking your closest ones for-granted)

At the end of the day?

How many actually self-reflect on the consequences? Touch your heart. When things happen n your child is not close to u, is it easier to simply push the blame on others or to take heart and really think what should be done? Years go by, till this day, probably I'd told myself hundreds of time that I'd given up, but deep down, I hope for a change.

How long can this turmoil last, before the heart really dies and every hope fizzles off???

从字里行间,感觉到你似乎又刚面对了一些什么样的冲击?男人和女人、老公和老婆之间,只不过是两个人,而且是两个最亲密的人,有时候真想不通为何竟能牵扯出泉涌不断的问题?这应该是这宇宙间最玄最奥妙的难题。

你说得没错,我们还是学会独立最好。没有什么能为我们的生命生活负责,那一纸婚书不能,更何况是男人信口开河说过的一些自己早已忘记的话:p姐姐妹妹,勇敢站起来。

真的很不愿意再做这样的笔录,不想让我的日记充满不愉快的回忆。可是人会累,会失望,会灰心。要时时让快乐填满心灵,靠一个人的力量,有时真的很难。我想这片天地就好似让我宣泄的地方,当再也憋不住的时候,就到此大大声地喊,大大声的叫。
男人和女人思维本就不同,加上家教、性格差异、成长环境、社交圈子等等因素,对婚姻、孩子、钱财规划、生活方向等的要求、期待更是很难取得共识。有时想想,撇开想有自己的孩子,自己过日子不是更自在、快活?

嘿朋友!人生啊,就如坐过山车啦,起起又落落。在感到无助懊恼的时候,发发牢骚,发泄一下也好啦,总好过闷在心里得内伤啦!就希望我们的过山车起落不一,当你消极时,我们借你肩膀靠一靠,当我们悲伤时,你给我们一个拥抱,好吗? 别把人生的期待放得太高吧?我们该这样想吧?唯美的世界属于遥不可及的童话!
