Dejected
Life is like a wheel of ups and downs. Sometimes things go really smooth, all are fantastic, all rosy. Sometimes things just get ugly, you’re unhappy inside, suffering and just have no powers to change things. I don’t know, it has to do a bit with what you feel inside, your mood? Is it a determinant factor of the your location on the wheel, whether upside or downside? The surrounding is not a determinant, and how you approach things determined whether you’re up or down. That doesn’t sound right. The surrounding is an important factor no matter how much you motivates yourself to keep that happiness sticking with you.
You motivate yourself when the going gets tough, the tough gets going? Or if it is related to your loved ones, like argument, misunderstanding, or plain lies, what do you do? Can’t get the tough man out of you. Pained. Sick.
I don’t claimed to have all the answers to life fundamental philosophy questions. I’m sure that Akademi Fantasia is not the solution - I’m hearing the theme song from the tv right now. I’ve had bad days that i thought that "Bad Luck" just stuck onto me. You know little things which pisses you off like missing the turn which you absolutely have to make as the U-Turn is like kilometres away, or your house keys are lost and you can’t get inside, or such craving for a cigarette but you can’t find a lighter anywhere, or your laptop fell onto the road because the bag’s tie broke suddenly, you lost RM 400 because some asshole crept into your car and stole it, and on top of it every single shit you can imagine happen in a single day. It happened to me, most of the things described above in a single day plus some additional shitty things. My money got stolen but luckily not on the same day. Or else, maybe I’d have a nervous breakdown because I’d think the divine power above hates me.
Had a fight with my fiancee. You know, the thoughts come back to haunt you, is my decision the correct one? Financial problems, and I hate to take loans as it enslaves you.
How do we approach such downside of life? After such bad lucks one after another in one single day, you just have to think of people in Africa and famine, people who had been diagnosed with cancer or leaukemia, people who lost their sight, or legs and arms due to accident and after that you’d think to yourself…this is such trivial matters to be concerned about. I was so frustrated and feeling dejected. When I got home (luckily someone inside the house heard me or else have to sleep outside due to lost of keys), I changed my clothes and relaxed on the bed. I read The_Quran. Leaving everything to Allah because I am powerless, I am His servant who can’t handle all these trivial matters. I just go to sleep. Morning time still the burden is there but I never thought seriously about it.
Cheers guys. I hope you have an upside wheel of life to enjoy now because you’d be really messed when your time is up to be on the downside of Life’s Wheel.
