The Way Globalised Things Are

The Way Globalised Things Are

Clare Richard

Yes, the candle is crying, it mourns over self-melt.

And no, the person is not crying, they were crocodile tears.

Constant combing may lead to severe hairloss,

Constant touches and regular caress will not.

I am your teacher and that is the way globalised things are.

When your mother is looking the other way,

Do not read her diary. No, babies

Are not made on the internet.

Excuses may breed excuses.

An antivirus will always beg for another update.

I am your teacher and that is the way globalised things are.

Yes, old people walk slowly,

Because you’re never there to help them walk faster.

Cookbooks when cooked, will not leave a curry aroma,

Though flawlessly-pretty, a lipstick model may use Picassa.

I am your teacher and that is the way globalised things are.

The coldest aircon heats the earth the most.

When an earring is lost, you can still wear it on your nose.

When a teacher is missing, all are lost.

Today’s celebrated leader is tomorrow’s forgotten history.

The father weeps gently, not his brand new sports car.

I am your teacher and that is the way globalised things are.

Even though you’re short sighted,

It does not mean people are not looking.

A gold tooth will not guarantee a good bite.

The darkest night illuminates the brightest star.

I am your teacher and that is the way globalised things are.

Acne-counting will fail as a unit of currency.

Men work best with secretaries.

A ringgit worth 99 without 1 cent.

A drunk will not appreciate a helmet.

I am your teacher and that is the way globalised things are.

Do not become a preacher unless you know

What your preaches are.

A short speech receives a longer applause.

A joyous scream may kill your lungs.

No holy matrimony awaits a p**n star.

I am your teacher and I am sorry,

That is the way globalised things are.

Confusion strikes me so hard.....

Humans will experience a lot of things. In other words, almost everything will be experienced by human being. Love? Happiness? Sadness? Death? and some other emotions. Recently, i am stroked hard by confusion. It affects me so much. It causes me moody, not happy as before and maybe think a lot further and out of the box. I don't know exactly what is happening around me and what to do to solved it. I don't even know what reason or reasons that lead to my confusion. The only thing i know is only- confuse.. confuse... confuse.. and again, confuse.... Most of the time, i am trying to accommodate with others about anything. Am i doing the right stuff? Are my choice or decision correct? Conflicts happened again and again within myself. I am facing mental struggle, and perhaps struggle for freedom? confuse.... I think i must train myself and make myself be more assertive and firm in my decision. Learn to say NO!! i have 5 years time to prove it to myself that i can do it~ No worries~ ^v^

Wishes: May God bless all of us and lead us to correct path~

A moment to a new hope~

Suddenly, I realized that friends mean a lot to me. But i hardly to describe the feeling. I just feel like so free and natural as well as no worries when i mixed with them. Even though they din mention or say anything special to me, but i gain motivation from them. That lead me to a new hope everyday. Thanks God, because of the new hope, because of my family and because of all the people surround me, i feel glad that I OWN you all. ^v^

~Life in a cruel world~

Life,

Full of occurances,

Full of obstacles,

Full of evils,

And full of everything.

I wonder I can manage to handle all this difficult stuff along my way to the peak of the "mountain". I doubt in myself. I am bothered by everything. JUST anything and everything.. *money, *friendship, *family and etc. And maybe motorcycle license. It's so hard for me to live independent without rely on others. Sometimes, I keep on thinking the ways to improve myself. The ways that i can do. But seems like I can't do anything to beat the "bad" feeling inside me.. And it's better to let time to dilute everything bad inside me. God, please give me strength to do so......
