One of the books from Cecilia Ahern<\/strong><\/a>.. but this entry is not about this book exactly. Perhaps I will write on it later on bah.. have been reading it last two weeks.. but haven’t complete it yet.. slow rite.. coz I wanted to pass time on the train, so I only read on trains lor.<\/em><\/p>\n

Anyway, I suddenly felt like reading a chapter at home yesterday, and don’t really know why, this paragraph below kinda<\/em> had some impact on me.<\/p>\n

There was no such thing as a free meal:
\nEverything comes at a cost to others, most of the time at cost to ourselves.
\nWhenever something is gained, it has been taken from another place.
\nWhen something is lost, it arrives at elsewhere.<\/p>\n

There are the usual philosophical questions:
\nWhy do bad things happen to good people?
\nWithin every bad thing, i see good, and likewise,
\nwithin every good thing i see bad,
\nhowever impossible it is to understand it or see it at the time.
\nAs humans we are the epitome of life, in life there is always balance.
\nLife and death, male and female, good and bad, beautiful and ugly, win and lose, love and hate. Lost and found.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Impact? How? Haha.. I even dreamt about it! Though it was “funny” in a sense. Well, isn’t somethin that you will burst into laughter lah, but the fact that Stephen Chow appeared in the dream is funny enough, isn’t it? -__-” He appeared as the serious and poor daddy from CJ7.. explaining this philosophy to me, and sadly, Qi Zai reenact its sacrifice in my dream. Ok, whenever something is gained, it has been taken from somewhere.. or someone else.<\/p>\n

Haha.. ok, time to wake up for work. Good Morning, peeps. =)<\/p>\n\n\n
