...a life of reflectionsLife is indeed so short. And, oddly enough it is much shorter for those who lives they find meaningful while it is too long for those who lives they find meaningless.
Couldn't it be that life is what meaning we put into it?
Now and then, I also ask what meaning has my life really. Often, I feel like I know but other times, my thinking looks like useless mental exercise. Life is just so vast, so full of mysteries that before I put meaning to my life, part of it is gone and the meaning I try putting on it is already partly exhausted.
Life, so it seems, is like dry and slipping through my fingers. When I try to hold on to it very tightly, as if squeezing it, it slips away faster.
But when I try to cast it away, it sticks to my hands. Sometimes, I think, to appreciate life best, one has neither to hold on to it tightly nor to let it go so carelessly. The sand in the hourglass is Life. It is better to let it flow freely, although not carelessly.
How we take life is often dictated by what priorities we have. And, life being so vast, offers everything which can be priority to us.
....Now we indistinctly, as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. My knowledge is imperfect now; then I shall know even as I am known.
There are in the end three things that last: Faith, Hope & Love, and the greatest of these is LoVe!
When I was very young nothing mattered to me but making myself happy. I was the only one. Now that I am grown, everything's changed. I'll never be the same. Does it really matters? I couldn't answer that question either. Turning to older age is a sure delimma of thinking how to put myself in this world. Does anything really needs to be change? Well, I have a different attitude to it. I mean, I can't undo what's been done and everything happens for a reason and I've been really blessed, but there are times that I long for a little anonymity - mostly creatively, never mind being able to walk down the street by myself.
My Parents expectations on me are huge, that I hate. It would be nice to be able to try things and do things without having their high expectations. And I really love to be quite certain that what I'm doing is something I really love. In the end, it needs to be about the doing of it and not the end of results. I'm trying to shift the balance of my priorities. Well, it's just that I've learned the more you try and keep control, the more it seems to slip through my fingers. Anyway, not to keep you bored here, let me introduce myself a bit.
I'm Rey Tria a.k.a. Knoi de aRTee. I was born on January 24, 1970 - now you can calculate how old I am. I finished my college with BS in Nursing in 1990. One year later, left the Philippines and my Nursing Ethics was over. I was so premiditated of being able to earn money to support my needs and for being able to help the family.
True, I still do share a little part of it. When your parents do sacrifice a little for you, there is something in return that you always give the feeling of being great and how to become. |
Favourite Book I like to read about humorous, first book I read in Hong Kong is Lily Wong which you can get at Jumbo Bookstore or any bookstores in HK for about HK$95.00
CD I get the same sentiments from old songs and I like Jazz so much. Take a breath with the Kenny G's, Earl Klugh's, The Group Bands of GRP's, David Sanburn, and the kool Acid Jazz's. Check my page on the Adlibs
Car I have N.O.N.E., but I wish to have one, Mercedes-Benz. It's really stable and secure.
Place in Hong Kong to Take a Guest The waterfront alongside the Cultural Centre in Tsim Sha Tsui. I can calm down there. The Great Kingdom of Ocean Park is also a side of enjoyment
Places to Go Paris. I love to go there. Japan, I love to buy a dozen of cameras and Compact Discs.
Method of Keeping Fit I don't have any specifically. Eat, sleep at the maximum hours of 7 or so and drink my milk. No. I don't drink without a coffee. I smoke, (sssshh!) ocassionally, thus I can quit instantly if you tell me.
Way to Spend on Sundays When I have the cash, I go with my little nephews and bring them to McDonalds. I can be like them, for just a little time on Family day like Sundays then we off to go to church. Don't we all?
Scents Issey Miyake. It's cool, fresh and it's a japanese brand. It's freshly cut. Accesories I only own a single piece of it. But I collect 925 silvers. My most valued "possesions" are my family.
Restaurants Man Ho at JW Marriott Hotel. It's oh-so-yummy. The California Grill, they have Japanese foods which are adorable. Food For Thoughts: Eat The Bone, but not the Plate.
eventually life......is like a blink of an eye and I still couldn't reach my destinations. Now, I'm here in Hong Kong working for "FUN" and enjoying the life for a change. It may have been a change from what I am, but I still remain being who I am. I feel alienated by working with a big group of different culture and I feel am away from my simple life, simple problems and simple needs, thus I sense that the place where I am right now could be my failure, racisms are always on my mind. At the end of the day, I realized that I am now adapting to a new environment.
I am presently working in a Hotel, geez! it's a great place. Perhaps all of these are just for temporary basis. Having been influenced with the city is a little exciting. I am learning quite a shock. My appetite turned amazingly. I love going to movies, collecting CD's and making the most of my time doing the much-to-like computer stuff. Look - am using my keyboards and my typing really provens that I am learning! Kool, isn't it?
I like reading short stories, making lots of "good vibes" and pretending I understood them, but hey, I'm really learning. I love to shoppe around downtown. I adore Levi's jeans, making myself comfortable. Versace collections are worth-to-own but the traumas of using plastic for a purchase of such piece is tolerable. I owned a cat, his name is "GINGER" and he is a japanese bob-tailed 3 years old breed. Uhhh! whocares?
I would really recommend this page and the rest of the boring pages.. *geez! why would I tell you*? to anybody who enters here without even saying a word on my guestbook, whatever! except it may be too intellectual for most of you guys, whom I know has had a lot of ideas about what life really is.
In cunclusion, I'd say this was a great page, well, I had given a huge hardwork on it, so tell me what this like or else I will hunt you down and kiss you! It taught me one of life's most important lessons: If you're gonna cheat, cheat wholeheartedly.
Lastly, I would like to say that if only more people would stay home and ReAd, we'd have 56% less crime in the Whole World today. So think about it! And have a lovely day! See.....I love to write and write.......and wait this couldn't stop me...hold it right here...
Well I suppose this is all for now. Let me tell you something. "Wide rules make life simpler". So come, see and relax. Take your time to a full dimensional sites that I simply made here just for you to see, to hear, to read and to get some informations.
Remember that communications starts on YOU so have fun and make it a habit to say "I Am Absolutely Perfect" and it could make a difference! So move on and find out what I am saying, man! Joygeen!
Pay attention: Fear can be put to good use, man. I hold these truths to be self-evident. Do not try to avoid these laws, for I refuse to be avoided. What's in here must be shared to you so don't mess up with my pictures, they are too old but that's all the treasures I have left from my college yearbook, so think before it's too late, man! |
