You don't change,Lives change you


Changes might sound terrifying to you, especially when you are used to being in your own comfort zone. But, change is the only constant in life.

I just wanna be the best of me
Even though sometimes, we might disagree
So that I can be the best for you
That's all I wanna do

The current worldwide pandemic is the greatest example at this moment, if not the worst. We are forced to make some changes in our daily lifestyles to accustom to the situation we face right now. We are staying at home when we should be out there working or studying. We are staying at home when we should be enjoying the sunset after a long walk with our loved ones. We are staying at home because we need to be “there” to help our frontliners fighting against the virus.

Before this whole panic happened, I guess a lot of people were very comfortable in their current states. I do not mean that it was actually a bad thing. Being happy and content about your life is something I wouldn’t ask more for you. I am truly ecstatic if anyone would feel like that. You are GOOD!

However, choosing not to improve or make a greater change for your life is something I disagree upon. Hear me out first. For example, you have a great life where you have your partner, your kid and your parents underneath a sweet home with your uproaring, steady career. I am happy for you. You are thankful and always do your best to love the people around you and cherish them wholeheartedly. But, I will encourage you to do something else to “sparkle” your contented life. Not like I ask you to go fight a bull or jump from a cliff without any protection gears. I am sincerely asking you to try something, because life is full of unknowns. Probably increase the size of your company by indulging to other fields? Hire more talent that is out of your league? Learn personal branding? This is the way to deal with this evolving world. We have to keep changing so that we will evolve too. 

World is limitless. Knowledge is boundless. Change is inevitable. Growth is optional. You are going through changes, but it doesn’t mean YOU will change. Uphold your strength. Get rid of your weaknesses. Explore a new side of you. Kill off the bad-thi-ria!!!

What's scarier than you do the same thing over and over but you are still doing it

  If you are born and raised from an Asian family, I am sure that 99.8% of you had been forced to attend some sorts of extra classes or advancement courses to “improve” ourselves while we were young (0.02% were probably crying their eyeballs out to get their getaway card). There is a Malay saying: “ Melentur buluh biarlah dari rebungnya .”, which means that learning in a tender younger age is the best way to cultivate and nourish skills! It’s especially applicable for Asian’s KIASU personality or more specifically Chinese people???           I was definitely not excluded. I was sent to swimming lesson for my mom stating that drowning was very possible in this world covered of around 71% water. Hence, my mom sent every one of us siblings to learn swimming in a very early ages. Other than that, art class and taekwondo class since I was in primary school were attended too.           Truthfully, I am not here to ...

Ignorant vs Innocent

Chinese New Year is just around the corner! Though 2021 means a whole different kind of vibe for celebration, it still does not stop me doing one of the most important elements during pre-CNY - g otong-royong (big cleanup at home).           I had spent my last week of January literally just doing that. From wiping the walls, dusting the drawers, dumping broken stuff to recycling old clothing, it was hell lot of work.           In the midst of cleaning up, there was no doubt that we would find out some past memories kept in somewhere around. This was where I found out the beauty of innocent childhoods and my past pure ignorant of this ‘cruel’ world .          IGNORANT vs INNOCENT According to Wikipedia, being “ ignorant ” describes a person in the state of being unaware, who deliberately ignore or disregard important information or facts, whereas, b...

Emo is alright but dont let it fuck ya up

I had publicly scolded my girlfriend and called her as a bitch. I had broken down and cried uncontrollably in my working place. Yeah. My emotional self fucked me up once, or probably two time only. Fine, it was countless for someone forgetful like me. Those were some shitty dark times that I had been experiencing, which the emo Vivian back then had no idea I was actually in a messed-up situation that I went around to fuck other people’s lives too.           Actually, being emotional is not wrong. But, present this emo side of YOU in a self-destruction, ruining-people-lives way is just purely immoral and shameful. Putting your negative and sentimental self in front of people had some rules: it has to be done in private and secret place. No one wants to know how pity and pathetic your life that you have to shout out to all the other people around you who don’t even know you in your first place. Tell someone that you trust in a quie...
