Where there is love, there is life.

不要问幸福是什么。那只是一种感觉。
有时因为满足,有时由于牵挂,有时是一个微笑。
我们在人生的路途中用享受的心态面对一切悲欢离合,
人生并不是很长,用心的写好每一个字,用诚挚走好每一步阶梯,不要寻找。
我们在幸福的路上。


Alright, Common test one just ended a few hours ago, not much elements of excitement cause I personally feel that I don't deserve a so called holiday and take a rest because I jolly well know that I did not even put in the minimal effort I should have into it.
If I did not treat it like a serious test, why should I go on for a vacation then.

But, that's just what I say, never what I did. I already had awesome plans for the holiday hahaha le sigh to the human contradictory. However I will put aside time to study, yes. 
Well this blog isn't gonna be on the routine education complains but just perhaps a chain of summarize on some little joyful happy moments in life recently, apart from the stressful school work. ( And I think it is in fact biased for me to say it's stressful cause it's actually perfectly kope-able, just that I was really wandering off the edge recently. My fault ha. )

And first and foremost I would really want to stress on my inclination that the greatest happiness comes from making other people happy. Yes, it is that sense of fulfillment you achieve upon helping someone, and most of the time she or he returns you with a smile. And that particular smile, will worth everything and if possible, most probably brighten up the rest of your day. 
So as a head start, I tried to open up myself more by offering help to strangers. Okay I shall admit that it takes some courage ( for me at least ) to offer help cause, I don't know, brought up in the 各人自扫门前雪,莫管他人瓦上霜 world. But it wasn't that hard cause I started from helping the elderly and it's like so called normal cause they are perceived as the needy group in the society so it's not that "weird" when you offer help. What I did are really just minor things in life, like helping old granny carry their trolly up the stairs, pushing an aunty with a fractured leg on wheelchair to bustop, and down to the ubiquitous things like buying tissue from the elderly or handicap. Despite that I think that they earn quite a decent amount from just selling tissue if not there won't be so many people in for this, but still every-time when I thought to myself "nah other people will buy from them " another voice is raised in my head, what if everyone thinks this way then who is gonna help them eventually. No one wants to be bone handicapped, or maybe got their limbs removed because of diseases after all. And also I guess it's partially because one dollar isn't a big sum of money and definitely within everyone's financial capability. Okay drifted off way over ( I think this is why my GP aren't good, keep drift away from my topic sentence. But ohman, this is just a blog post. Just let me be. ;D )
  
 So back to where I should be. Much of the time I find that the people living in this society are crude individuals who spend too little time with the people who surrounds them. Like, they aren't friendly enough. Maybe I'm just trying to portray an ideal world but I honestly believe that it doesn't kill you to give someone a smile generously, smiles are free come on guys. And what you get from a smile is beyond what money can buy. So yes, my friend, do help others, whiny tiny little efforts counts,  nobody can do everything, but everyone can do something. So why not?


And second factor, which is at this stage, the essence and main reason that builds up the infinite happiness within me is friendships. They are the people who never fails to believe in me when I have ceased to believe myself. You just feel so good around them in your comfortable zone and you talk without thinking, like effortless and just speaks off what's on your mind. I specially love the feeling I got when I open up to close friends or vice versa, they encourage me to grow through those long heart to heart talks. You can feel the trust you both put into the friendship and you aren't afraid of the person gonna judge you or speaks ill about you behind your back or whatsoever. You can text them anything in the universe or even outside it anytime and they will entertain you in interesting ways. I have no idea if I am able to meet anymore people like them in years to come therefore I will be keeping them by my side till, forever. I realize it's easier and more convincing to use the word " forever" on friendship instead of relationship, and most of the time relationship destroys friendships, however you want to interpret it. But right now, I really want to tell every single of you that it's you guys keep me growing, keep me happy and makes me laugh, laughter is the best medicine on earth remember, thanks for saving medical bill for me! This is pretty crucial since the cost of living is rising exponentially with our level of income :D TROLOLOL.


It pretty late now hence I will just end off with a really inspiring MV by Nick Vujicic. And on a side note so the top world criminal Joseph Kony had raised a great commotion over the world, I'm really glad that I spent 30 minutes of my life watching the short movie KONY2012. Despite critics arises after this on the disproportion amount of donation sums spend on the Uganda upgrading while a majority goes to publicizing and campaigns, It's people like Jason Russell who gave hope to the world and make people believe in they can make a difference to the world. 
The world is beautiful place, yet to be. And I genuinely hope that soon, the world could celebrate as one on the arrest of joseph kony, very soon. But I guess he is just an edge of the ice berg, I mean just by arresting the head isn't enough to destroy the organisation and the entire army behind him, it would take perhaps decades if not centuries for the problem of child abduction to be eradicated completely. It's just saying removing poverty, which is just impossible to achieve. Unless, the world come as one and do something. I would rather believe in the slightest possibilities than to just put eradicating poverty on a death sentence. Yes, Hope. this is the way man.    

We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope. 
- Martin Luther King, Jr.






Oh on a side note I will be heading off to NTU with ali & Jiachen on next Sat for an individual TED talk on pursuit of happiness. May I gain something from it and enjoy life better, and continue to give thank to every little thing in life.
