Lovely Saturday!
I had a great Saturday by bringing the elderly to the Singapore Flyers. Some may think that it is an activity too boring for a precious weekend but it is something very enriching and meaningful to me. Everything was on our side because of the fine weather. The old lady, whom I looked after, enjoyed herself too. It was my first time taking the Singapore Flyers in the daytime and I thought that it was better than taking it at night. I think I was quite lucky in a way because I had never paid a single cent for all my rides. =D
I could not help but to smile when I saw that they seemed to be smiling from the bottom of their heart. It is very heartwarming. ^^
On our ride back to the old folks' home, I realised that she seemed to be thinking about something. I wish I could know.
At the end of the day, that old lady held my hand tightly and said, “Thank you so much. God bless you.” I felt rather touched at that moment because my help was appreciated. It really brightened my day. =)
Whenever I visit the home, it saddens me to see some of the elderly as some of them really look so weak. It just reminds me that life is really fragile. We are often advised to treasure our loved ones but how often do we really do it? Looking at my current lifestyle, I have to admit that I am far from doing it. The thing is, what is the point of doing it when you know that it is not going to be appreciated and the reward for doing it is to get hurt all over again? I tried. I tried so many times that I offically give up. I would rather spend time with people who really appreciate my presence and truly love and care for me. It is just too bad that it is not them and I will try my hardest to accept my fate. I never keep my promise of not crying over them again. But, each time it happens, I will cry like nobody's business. When I am lost, where are you? When I need an advice, where are you? You only hurt me and make me more hurt and lost like nobody's business. It is YOUR forte. How many times do I have to keep myself moving? I am seriously running out of motivation. What if one day I totally lose it? Are you going to regret that you never really loved or cared for me the way I hope I could see from you? When are you going to stop me from doing things that I really, really want? I only live once. You make me feel that I am bad at everything and it is so bad that I am trying so hard to figure out my strength. People say that you have to love yourself before you love others. Perhaps, I can care for others but not love. I think this is one of the reasons why I think that I will be a very bad girlfriend. Oh hell. I openly hope that I can have my own family. We shall see.
I should get reminded of a certain event of my life but I do not seem to recall anymore. How strange. Perhaps my tiredness has worn me down so much that I could only remember something that took place yesterday. I need a getaway from work and negativity of life. I need some intelligence for my emotion so that I will not get hurt so often. Perhaps, I should really try something which I never thought I would and could do, like...I am not too sure either.
Would you like to suggest one? I think I lost track of my life. I am counting down to next year yet I am not because things in my life will change again and I have to learn to adapt it. I wish to amend things which were not right and do it all over again. I realised that I regretted doing certain things or making certain decisions yet I am glad that they happened. As time passes by, I lose more confidence and faith in certain things of my life. (Alex forbids me from saying that I am a bad girlfriend. Eh. No, I am still single. Ha Ha.) I realised that things are getting more and more complicated as I grow up. Maybe I am making things complicated for myself.
I am missing a lot of things. School. Free time. Camps. Studying. Wearing casual clothes more often than formal attire. Sleep. (I am not missing my friends because I spend most of my free time with them.^^)
