Surprises
Life is full of surprises. You take an unusual turn and discover new things. Some of them good, some of them bad. Unfortunately for me, they are the bad ones. Nevertheless, it amazes me how some people can still discover so much shit about one person and think that that person is worth sticking around for.
It's like the wife who discovers how her husband cheated on her. Not just once but countless times. Yet, she still clings on to him like he's the perfect guy instead of packing up and leaving. Or the office worker who constantly gets bullied by the other colleagues into doing extra work or being the scapegoat. Instead of speaking up, he keeps quiet and takes blame for everything. People with no backbone, is what I call them. It sounds harsh, but really, these people think that the world is unfair to them, when they themselves hold the power to break out of the shit they are in. Why cant people stand up for what they believe in? Why throw it all away for people who make your life miserable?
Anyway, on to merrier things. Went rollerblading today and I didnt slap sunscreen on my body. Now my body's itching and looking a bit reddish and feeling sensitive, and I sure hope that it doesnt get worse. It feels good to get out there once in a while and really let go and enjoy yourself =) Sometimes, all I wanna do is to let go totally and live for the moment, but hey, letting go too much can be dangerous. You live for the moment, but there can be consequences to pay.
I'm gonna get some sleep.
P.S: I think fish hired a maid. Feel bad for her as I think she has a lot of cleaning up to do.

Nice blog. :o)
I understand what you're saying about the abusive/cheating husbands, and how their wives stay with them, but I think that sometimes it goes a bit deeper than that. Some people stay in relationships that aren't healthy because they don't believe that they deserve any better. I guess you could call it a lack of confidence or self esteem.

i guess some people find it easier to hang on to a failed relationship than break up and move on.

I have a friend back in college who went into that same situation, and all she can say is.. "I guess the old saying 'Love is Blind' happens to be true to me afterall"
Saddened upon hearing this, she still chose to cling onto their unhealthy relationship.
She never realises the true meaning of what love is..
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres"
..and I agree with Tara and Mr/Ms.Anonymous :)
ciao!

Well, most people do take time to break out of unhealthy relationships. I admire these people, because it takes courage to do that, and these people give themselves a new shot in life. However, some of these cheaters do change for the better, and I guess sometimes, it might be worthwhile to stick around to see that. Yes, I understand what you meant by "love is blind", I've been through that, though I have already broken out of it. I can tell you life feels so much better now :)
