不管多么的艰苦,辛酸，还是得活下去，坚持下去，对不对？

Thrown at us what may, be it unpleasant circumstances, depressing moments, heartbreaking scenarios, happy times even; life, still goes on!




Oh yeah, love the pool. 80cents per entry, beats a cone at Macs, right? (:
Especially with one or two friends with you; hit the pool, feel the water, let the laps take over you. Singapore pools today are more populated (a little too overpopulated though). Bodes well? More people are attempting at, exercising? x) We see smiley faces all around, cheery, stress-free laughter -- Families down at the rides, couples frolicking in the water, children playing water-tag. Happy people, happy people.

In the aqueous environment it's all quiet; everything is all slow-mo, and swim strokes: pull, breathe, pull - it goes on, side to side, lap by lap. The water, it takes over, all is calm, all is well, for that hour or two. If only everything could be as the serene water environment, if life could be as carefree, if we could live, everything in slow motion, how good that'll be? The pool, it's a good time to think, personally. To reflect, to look at how things have been. No one troubles you, aside the one kiddo who bumps into you incidentally once in a while. (:

Everything is two sided, everything. What is a pain to accomplish, can be fun, for others. Like swimming! It can be a pain in the ass, absolutely, if you're lazy, it can be a 'refresh' button at the same time, to whom only. We can choose, to be happy, to be not. It's purely our decision, our choice, why should anyone take it from us, right?

--

If it means that others have an edge over us, we work harder to cover up that gap.
If it means that we're from different backgrounds, we could work to bridge that space.
If it means that we could never be as fortunate as others, we try as best to amend the situation, otherwise, let what can't be changed stay, and focus on the other brighter things in life that we already possess.

For the process, of working, of experimenting, of being thrown around like a rag-doll, of being hurt time and time again -- it is like the muscle system, tear it, it'll grow stronger; and we're like that too - pull through hardship, come out tougher.

And one day we'll realize that hey, we're actually quite well of, perhaps in terms of experience, of precious moments, things that we can call our own, over others.

生命,还是美好的. (:
