The Lonely Crowds

For several weeks now, i have been looking through my friends friendsters’ accounts. And i start to realise that I have never been a significant part of anybody lifes. And i have no one i could truly call as my true best friend or rather someone else close friend. Everytime as I go through my phone book wanting to chat someone up, i realise that out of the hundreds of contacts i have in my phone, none i could call. I finally understand the old proverb saying “Its quality and not quantity”.

“Have you ever look at a picture of yourself, and see a stranger in the background? It makes you wonder how many strangers have pictures of you. How many moments of other peoples life have we been in. Were we a part of someone’s life when their dream came true or were we there when their dream died. Did we keep trying to get in? As if we were somehow destined to be there or did the shot take us by surprise. Just think, you could be a big part of someone else’s life, and not even know it.” – One tree hill

And i dare say other than my parents and my bro, i have never been in someone’s life when their dream came true or when their dream died. 21 years of my life, what have i accomplish? What impact have i created on this earth or in people’s lives? I guess i could officially called myself a failure caused i have accomplish none.

Good is Good – Sheryl Crow
Good is good and bad is bad
But you don’t know which one you had
She put your books out on the sidewalk
Now they’re blowing ‘round
But they won’t help you when you’re down

Love’s on your list of things to do

To bring your good luck back to you
And if you think that everything’s unfair
Would you care if you’re the last one standing there

And every time you hear the rolling thunder

You turn and run before the lightning strikes
And does it ever make you stop and wonder
If all your good times pass you by

I don’t hold no mystery

But I can show you how to turn the key
Cause all I know is where I started
So downhearted
And that’s not where you want to be

And every time you hear the rolling thunder

You turn and run before the lightning strikes
And you could find a rock to crawl right under
And let your good times pass you by

When the day is done

And the world is sleeping
And the moon is on its way to shine
All the friends are gone
You thought were so worth keeping
You feel you don’t belong
But you don’t know why

And every time you hear the rolling thunder
You turn and run before the lightning strikes
And does it ever make you stop and wonder
If all your good times pass you by

Every time you hear the rolling thunder

And you turn and run before the lightning strikes
Well does it ever make you stop and wonder
If all your good times pass you by

When the day is done

And the world is sleeping
And the moon is on its way to shine (shine)
And all your friends are gone
You thought were so worth keeping
You feel you don’t belong
Neither do I

    life's a journey much to be enjoyed, a discovery meant to be savoured, a walk that is much alone.. coz until we know why are we here, then do we know wat we have to do.. and know our roles to play.. you are not a failure.. its just that you have not loved yourself enough to ask urself wat do u really want out of this life.. its not abt you being in others life.. its abt wat you are doing for them out of love..
