I think I will blog properly for once today.
Listening to the song below brings back a lot of memories. Memories of times in the past that were better and possibly more fruitful. But usually on retrospect we all do not recall the unhappiness and hurts. I don't think I have written a more honest post for such a long while.
2005 was a difficult year for me. Many trials and tribulations came and passed and I might not be unscathed but I would say that they shaped my life for this year. I went into psychotic neuroses for quite a few of them as they unduly affected me. I made a lot of new friends but I also learnt the loss of a few friendships. Also I had my 21st birthday. Youth just flew by. Will I be 18 again? no.
I only have one resolution for this year, and also for many years ahead. That is to live and love without regrets. Life is too short for one to regret. Look back if we may, but learn from the lessons. Time spent on regret will not amount to anything more than regret itself. I learnt a lot about myself this year and I don't want to repeat the same mistakes.
I am an adult already. It was so fast. My life has been a swirl. I wouldn't say it does not have its fair share of regrets, but I would say that I have lived a life worth living for. I have not finished all my resolutions yet, but for now, I know what I want for this year.
I want one moment in time, when I'm more than I thought I could be. When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away, and the answers are all up to me. Give me one moment in time, when I'm racing with destiny. Then in that one moment of time, I will feel eternity.
Whitney Houston
One Moment In Time Lyrics
Each day I live
I want to be
A day to give
The best of me
I'm only one
But not alone
My finest day
Is yet unknown
I broke my heart
Fought every gain
To taste the sweet
I face the pain
I rise and fall
Yet through it all
This much remains
I want one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity
I've lived to be
The very best
I want it all
No time for less
I've laid the plans
Now lay the chance
Here in my hands
Give me one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity
You're a winner for a lifetime
If you seize that one moment in time
Make it shine
Give me one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will be
I will be
I will be free
I will be
I will be free
