Never an Option

Do you ever feel stressed and confused about making a decision in your life?

You just sitting there,
in front of computer
feeling lost if you want to pursue study in business or law.

Or maybe,

You just staring there,
in the dark
when the world is sleeping
Undecided whether you should keep fighting or call it quits already.

With everything in your life. Really.

If so, you really should know this.

If you have no idea what your true choice is between the two options that you have, make sure to always choose the second one. After all, if you really want your first option, the second will never be an option.

Deep down,
Heart knows what the heart wants. Even if the brain is always arguing.

Sincerely me,

DAD

Dear dad,
You don’t say you care about me but I know you are when you hug me tight every time I cry.

Dear dad,
You don’t say you trust me but I know you are when you let me make my own decision.

Dear dad,
You don’t say you’re proud of me but I know you are when I see that smile remain on your face.

Dear dad,
You don’t say you’re angry at me but I know you are when your frown doesn’t disappear for a while.

Dear dad,
You don’t say you love me but I know you are when you always protect me from everything that brings me harm.

Dear dad,
I’m your daughter. I wish you already know deep in your heart that for us you’re the best and we will always miss you.

Sincerely me,
Az.Ra

What Goes Around Comes Around

We keep wondering how they can smile so big, we don’t seem to realize that was their way to hold themselves together from crying in tears.

We keep wondering how they’re so confident in front of others, we don’t realize that they also hide their shaking hand behind their back when nobody sees.

We keep wondering how they can have so many friends in their life, we don’t seem to realize that only a few were the real ones.

We keep wondering how they’re so successful in their career, we don’t realize that they also had to sacrifice their family time just to complete loads of work.

We just keep wondering so we forgot the fact that everything in life comes with prices. When you get some, you lose some.

You might miss the brightness of the sun during the rain, but you got to see the colourful rainbows after that instead.
Just because you don’t get what you wish doesn’t mean you won’t get what you meant to have.

Sincerely me,
Az.Ra

Grateful Work Wonder

When you angry with your parent because they give you advice for your own good,
Somewhere in this world, someone that loses their parents wishes they still have one.

When you complain because your parent forget to bought your favourite food,
Somewhere in this world, someone has to fast all day because they don’t have food to eat at all.

When you think life don’t treat you fair just because you can’t get your dream car to show off unlike your friends,
Somewhere in this world, someone has to walk miles in the heat just to buy groceries.

And maybe when you stop counting what you don’t have and start appreciating what you already got, you will see how lucky you already are.

Sincerely me,
Az.Ra

It All About You

When they say ‘stay strong’, it doesn’t mean you’re weak.

When they say ‘be brave’, it doesn’t mean you’re a coward.

When they say ‘stay happy’, it doesn’t mean you’re depressed.

When they say ‘be nice’, it doesn’t mean you’re a bad person.

Every meaning behind their words doesn’t matter. What really matters is how you decide to translate it for yourself.

You can see it as a bad thing and you will see yourself in a negative light. Or you can view it in a positive way and feel good about yourself.

It’s all in our hands. That is what makes life better. You’re the boss. Your life. Your choice.

Sincerely me,
Az.Ra

“Stop Trying” not entirely a bad thing

Sometimes ‘stop trying’ is not a bad thing.

It’s good sometimes to stop trying to care when they don’t even take their time long enough to appreciate it.

It is also good to stop trying to make an effort to spare their feelings when they don’t even spare a second to apologize for hurting you.

It is also a good thing to stop trying to force a conversation that you clearly know one side when we all know relationships involve both sides to make it work.

And sometime it is good to just stop trying for others and start trying for ourselves.

Sincerely me,
Az.Ra

Mistakes

They say you learn from your mistakes. That’s true.

But they also forget to say that you only learn anything from your mistakes if only you acknowledge them.

So I say don’t feel ashamed to admit your mistakes.

Don’t try to lie to cover it up from others.

Don’t try to sugarcoat others with a million reasons as to why you make them.

Don’t try so hard to forget and bury them in the back of your mind.

Just remember them. Embrace them. Only then you can start learning not to repeat it again.

Sincerely me,
Az.Ra
