Be Water, my frenzzz

“Empty your mind, be formless, be shapeless – like water. Now you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup; you put water into a bottle it becomes the bottle; you put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.”, quoted by the one and only one legend.

Do check it out. It's something you never touch in your heart.

          Once a lifesaver, forever a lifesaver. Once a swimmer, forever a swimmer. Water is a versatile element in my perspective. It flows, it changes shapes and it can be as powerful as a grenade. Being a swimmer means able to move freely above the surface and push against the water when it comes your way up front. Speed, agility and rapid movement are required.

          Whereas, a lifesaver needs to be calm, level-headed and sane. Going deep down into the water, I have to suffer pressure yet move around inside a deep 2-meter water with ease, like swim like a fish. Moreover, people’s lives might depend on me for my coolness in my head and my steady movements along the water. I cannot let the water determine my whereabouts, but I let it to become my push, my help, my way. 

          Water can be in any form -rain, pool, tears, pond, sea. Don’t let it drown you down. Don’t let it press you until you couldn’t breathe. Enjoy -or live- with it. Then you will be living an unstoppable, borderless and limitless world where you could control your own world, on your own call. 

       Mindset and perspective are so much important but you, be you. Be enemy or be friend? It’s up to you, bruh.

New Injection of Life

  Imagine sitting on the cold hard floor alone in living room. No furniture at all but a lonely table perking up in the middle of it.  There is just emptiness and more emptiness growing inside you. No other sound except the whirring sound coming from your spinning ceiling fan.             I am that person. I am left alone to discover this new, hectic urbanized life.             Moving out from my hometown, I came to this new city of Kuala Lumpur with the hope of jumping into this pot of hustling and bustling people. As the capital of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur is indeed full of skyscrapers, luxury cars and well-dressed people in all-time.                 I am still experiencing culture shock -- wearing just a pair of slippers and pajamas-like clothes to just eat the dinner downstairs from my condo. My Ipoh-KL friends are in awe that I dare to dress ...
