Disney ConnexN !!

When I was a little girl, I dearly wished to be a mermaid. I was thoroughly taken by the red headed, free spirited Ariel from The Little Mermaid. There have been many nights when I used to pray as hard as I could for God to magically turn me into a mermaid when I woke up in the morning. I actually believed that will happen if I prayed hard enough. Why, I'll be so persuasive God will see how good I am and grant me this humble wish. Surely it will not be a big deal for him. And when I wake up and see that I have grown fins, I'll ask mama not to miss me too much and to set me free into the ocean. **giggles**
The more important task at hand was to live that free willed, free spirited life, and isn't that such a life demands sacrifices? Surely mama will understand and will move closer to the ocean so we can see and meet each other often. Realizing I had to have a Plan B, in case for some reason God decides not to turn me into a mermaid was to be, what else, but a human. That would be boring. But well, that was another way of being, wasn't it? I missed out being the lovely Ariel and meeting Prince Eric. Not to mention Flounder and Sebastian. Blah! I was crazy or what. Plan A was full of complications but was very rewarding; Plan B was easy, more natural to me and boring :/ No fish friends, no singing and dancing, no mane of flaming red hair, not having a father who was kind of the seven seas, no prince charming, (ahem). I was a sad puppy.
So where does this story lead to? No where actually, except that I got stuck on being a human and it turned out it wasn't so bad. Of course I had pangs of longing of being a mermaid till I was 13, but I eventually got over it. I grew up and tackled a few things and realized I didn't have to be a mermaid or a fish to be free spirited. I could do it right in my own skin and the way I was. It was just a matter of choice that always came with difficulty but was very rewarding. You shape yourself not by the color of your hair or anything you carry or wear. You define yourself simply by the choices you make in life.

Choose wisely!


P.S. Oh and have a Plan B, please. In case you mess up! Disney has this way of tampering with your ability to distinguish between real and absurd notions.
 
 P.P.S. This write up does not guide you into the How-To's of getting a Prince Charming. There aren't many. Look elsewhere.

EASY WAY OUT ------------>

There is no easy way out of problems. The only right way is going all the way. Sometimes it costs you a hell lot of things, but then you must know, in the closing moments of the day, the only one left with you is your shadow.  The question is: can you face yourself after the choices you make?

So, even though there may be an easy way out for me, I'll take the longer route. I need to be answerable to myself at the end of the day. No regrets in life for life. Tomorrow is going to be one heck of a brilliant day. I'm gonna OWN it well!



Hope u hv a gr8 weekend! 
Toodles~

Lights will guide you home, and ignite your bones, and I will try... to fix you...

There must be a perfect love out there somewhere, the kind of love which leaps up into anything and everything for you. I'm sure it's not something out of this world, because there are so many people who have lived their whole lives together and have grown old together.
 
I know, things like love and life are totally overrated. And I also know that it's gonna be just about one of these days that I'll wake up with a thoroughly practical view of how love should be lived in this life. I'll wait for that day when finally my mind will rule my emotions and it will all get easy.Till that day comes, I guess I'll enjoy this joy ride no matter how absurd it gets.
 
This is a 17 year old speaking in me: I know there's love out there, the kind that saves you from perdition and restores you to yourself. The kind that holds hands and closes eyes, the kind that leave love notes under the pillow and the kind that gifts flowers. The kind that kisses you to sleep and wake you to more kisses. The kind that makes every happiness worth while and every sadness seem as the passing phase it surely is. The kind that make you feel like a woman and a girl all at the same time, intimate, close and so very dear. There must be a rainbow for each and every one of us; may we all get to see our dreams with that someone special.You are beautiful to someone.

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face

When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Live for tOday .... we'll Dream tOmorrow !!



I love tomorrows. All of them. They kinda make you feel you can last forever. That's a mighty big feeling you know. There are so many things left to be done but they can wait. Not for too long. Just till tomorrow ;)
This is the last cup of coffee I'm drinking with sugar in it. From tomorrow, there will only be sugar-less cups of coffee on the face of this earth :p

The perfect job can wait for me, I promise I'll get serious about it tomorrow. And so will  my gym workouts. 
Why not today? It's so tough *makes a tired face* I'll be pushing my legs today and I don't want to do that to them! Give them time at least till tomorrow.

Tomorrow I plan to make time from work and go for that much deserved walk...that somehow isn't so deserving today! 
Tomorrow, I'll fight them. Why fight today? I have a headache and I don't want any more of it. I'll be open and frank and I'm sure they will understand tomorrow as much as they will today. But NO. Not today.Tomorrow. Please. It's only a day away and I can use today for any last hugs and kisses in case they choose not to understand. Tomorrow is precious you see. It seems to cater everything I need to do neatly. And it sure does seem infinite!
  


How many tomorrows? I don't know. Plenty there are and plenty there will always be. But you will not understand the value of your tomorrows until you realize there isn't going to be one. Do it today, do it now. Make tomorrow really worth while like it's always meant to be.



Tomorrow never comes... Because when it does, then it's today and you're again waiting for tomorrow. ¤_O

Oh, the sun'll come out tomorrow,
So you gotta' hang on till' tomorrow,
Come what may.

Tomorrow tomorrow, I love you tomorrow,
You're only a day away.

The most romantic story is not Romeo and Juliet who died together, but grandpa and grandma who grew old together.


And that's the inspiration I'd like to share with you guys today. Come on, what's a love story without the hero and the heroine? Love stories need two people to make them happen! A lot goes into it, all the good stuff, a little magic, a touch of fairy tales and a whole lotta TWO big fluttering, swooning, blooming deep-red hearts!

This world is so beautiful, and the best thing about it is YOU, because it's you and you alone who can do the things you're meant to. Got a bad day? Going through a rough patch? Seems like this is the end? This is NOT the end. The best thing about this life is that it's full of lovely doors and delicate fences and each wall has a window that lets in the sunshine. Wait for your sunshine to come and trust me on this one, it's gonna be way more amazing than you ever imagined!

Don't waste life by waiting for "better days" to come. The best day is TODAY because today, you can make something out of the rest of your life. You have the power; just that it needs a little finding, my friend.

Believe.

if you're lost you can look--and you will find me
time after time
if you fall I will catch you--I'll be waiting
time after time ...
