reflection

I’m here at the office, feeling so sleepy and not in the mood to fix my files. I tried to do some stuff and make myself busy but to no avail. Then, I decided to listen some music stored in my phone. I was listening to the song Reflection by Cristina Aguilera when suddenly I felt sad. Sometimes, we are once like this girl in the song pretending to be someone else in front of many people, making them believe that it is who we are but honestly we’re not! We are always afraid to show who we really are, afraid what people may think of you when you show what you think and feel. Afraid that they will not understand and accept you as you. Sometimes, we are pretending that were fine and happy in front of them but when the time comes that you’re all alone by yourself, you will then feel your loneliness, fear and insecurities. When will be the time that you don’t care anymore what people may think of you and that you can do whatever you want to do.


Here's the song...


♫ ♪ ♫ REFLECTION BY CRISTINA AGUILERA ♫ ♪ ♫

look at me
you may think you see who I really am
But you'll never know me
ev'ry day it's as if I play a part
Now I see if i wear a mask I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart


Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me
when will my reflection show who I am inside


I am now in a world where i have to hide my heart
and what I believe in
But somehow I will show the world what's inside my heart
and be loved for who I am


Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me
why is my reflection someone I don't know
Must I pretend that I'm someone else for all time
When will my reflection show who I am inside


there's a heart that must be free to fly
That burns with the need to know the reason why
Why must we all conceal what we think how we feel
Must there be a secret me i'm forced to hide


I won't pretend that I'm someone else for all time
when will my reflection show who I am inside
When will my reflection show who I am inside

lessons learned..

- not all we want is worth the risk - sometimes, we need to push ourselves too much to realize our limits - never let someone hurt you twice, if he had done it once, it's bound to happen again.. Once is enough to learn.. - giving someone a second chance is exposing yourself to be hurt again because no matter what he do to you you'll just accept him over and over again.. - it's not wrong to love yourself more - there's no such thing as give and take in a relationship, it's more on give, give and give..until your heart voluntarily quits. - it's true that a bastard is always a bastard! - reality is, it's not always like a fairytale. sometimes, it's just an illusion created for you to believe that there is a happy ending. - don't refuse to see the signs when it's already showing you that everything is going on the wrong direction - and most of all, somebody may leave you but true friends never will..

a friend ...

They say that misunderstandings between you and your friends strengthen the friendship. This way, you’ll both realize your mistakes and differences, and will understand each other much better than before. When we experience misunderstandings or quarrel among our friends, we think that it’s just right that the person who made the mistake should be the one who’ll apologize and make a move to reunite the friendship. That’s how we think. Pride hinders us to apologize to someone we had hurt. Sometimes we want to apologize but we don’t know how to approach them and we’re too afraid that they might just ignore us. What we don’t know is if someone really values you as a friend, we don’t know need any explanation and even a single a word is useless. Just a simple smile and hug from a friend is enough to ease all the anger and restore the friendship. This is what I learned from these past few days. Yes, it is true that the one who made the mistake should be the one who’ll apologize, but sometime...

if only..

I remember, someone asked me this, "if given a chance, what superpower do you want to have?".. back then, I answered I wish I had the power to teleport into different places in an instant, so that I would have the opportunity to travel into places I've never been anytime I want and without expenses needed. But now, I realize that's not what I want anymore. Now I wish I had the power to manipulate things that happened or could happen. If only I could turn back time and change things to make it better, I would. If only, I could foresee the future so that I would know if something bad will happen.. so that I can change it or avoid it beforehand. But this is impossible.. this is the reality, what's done is done. We can never bring back the past no matter how we want it badly. That there are some things in our life that's beyond our control. Anyway, the important thing is now. Now is the time to learn from the past and make better things. Yes, it's easy to ...
