wow it has been awhile since i last blogged.

i guess i was in denial, over the fact that i actually needed this space to somehow channel my inner thoughts. keeping my thoughts in my head not only step up to my current headache, but also my refusal to acknowledge my heartache as well. le sigh. so where do i begin?……..

don’t know.

i am troubled by the fact that i am troubled over things that i shouldn’t be thinking about right now.  all the positivity i am trying to channel seems distant from my current thoughts. as usual, i may appear jovial and merry but i never am, or never was. i am done debating about myself being the same or different from the past. the truth is, i have changed. and people changed. everyone i used to know is different now. there is no point to clarify my state of contradicting personality.

as simple as i can put it….. i am no longer happy.

somehow the one thing that i want the most… is the hardest to achieve. sometimes i try to think whether i tried to hard. but the fact is i do not have to try at all. a recent video i watched mentioned that happiness is how you perceive your surroundings. simple things like having a home to go back to, having food on your table,having friends to hang out with and so on… those are what makes you happy. it is right in front of you even when you are unaware of it. i guess i have lived by the same rules all these while but who am i to kid… i do not exactly share the same kind of joy anymore.

i felt empty.

as hollow as the nothingness in the air.. so blank, that sometimes it scares me to even think about it… and my only escape is to counter my feelings, showing the world how thrilled and contented i am.i know this can be a  frivolous  matter to anyone i know… some say it’s me being emotional , but then again, i have been feeling the same all this while, feeling so irrational.. of what i have been trying so hard to do, or to become. hmmm.

sometimes we fight for things that we don’t even know why we are fighting for.

sometimes in our life, we meet people we tend to dislike… but then the feeling go away because deep down, we are just afraid. and the reason for the prejudice is because we are scared that one day, he/she may become or is superior to us.

sometimes we run away. so far away that you don’t even look back, and just kept running.

sometimes i do not understand what is everyone talking about… but i pretended as if i do. i feel the need to connect.

sometimes i know i am unhappy.

but i fake a smile on my face to make everyone else happy.

and i guess sometimes… i need to be selfish. and that… is the most heartaching part

the cycle goes on and on.  in the end.. i am no longer the me i used to be.

simple. yet so hard for me to admit to the world.

Just to share..

The Law of Least Effort
This law is based on the fact that nature’s intelligence functions with effortless ease and abandoned carefreeness. This is the principle of least action, of no resistance. This is, therefore, the principle of harmony and love. When we learn this lesson from nature, we easily fulfill our desires. In Vedic Science, the age-old philosophy of India, this principle is known as the principle of economy of effort, or “do less and accomplish more.” Ultimately, you come to the state where you do nothing and accomplish everything. This means that there is just a faint idea, and then the manifestation of the idea comes about effortlessly. What is commonly called a “miracle” is actually an expression of the Law of Least Effort.Least effort is expended when your actions are motivated by love, because nature is held together by the energy of love. When you seek power and control over other people, you waste energy. When you seek money or power for the sake of the ego, you spend energy chasing the illusion of happiness instead of enjoying happiness in the moment. When your actions are motivated by love, your energy multiplies and accumulates–and the surplus energy you gather and enjoy can be channeled to create anything that you want, including unlimited wealth. There are three components to the Law of Least Effort–three things you can do to put this principle of “do less and accomplish more” into action. The first component is acceptance. Acceptance simply means that you make a commitment: “Today I will accept people, situations, circumstances and events as they occur.” This means I will know that this moment is as it should be, because the whole universe is as it should be. The second component is responsibility. This means not blaming anyone or anything for your situation, including yourself. This allows you the ability to have a creative response to the situation as it is now. All problems contain the seeds of opportunity, and this awareness allows you to take the moment and transform it to a better situation or thing. The third component to the Law of Least Effort is defenselessness. This means that you have relinquished the need to convince or persuade others of your point of view. If you relinquish this need you will in that relinquishment gain access to enormous amounts of energy that have been previously wasted.”
