alone again, naturally.
...and climbing to the top,
to throw myself off,
in an effort to,
make it clear to who,
ever wondered what its like when you'r shattered,
left standing in a lurch,
at a church,
where people saying,
"My God thats tough,
she stood him up,
no point in us remaining,
May as well go home",
as I did on my own,
Alone again, naturally.

“What if”
A young married woman went to the doctor for help. She asked to be sterilized, as her upbringing had been so painful that she didn’t want to have her children experience the same thing.
The doctor asked her: “What would happen if you could make our children’s life better and could protect them?”
She thought about it and was stumped. She changed her mind about the operation and now has 2 beautiful girls that are the joy of her life. The right questions created space in her thinking to look at life in a new way.
Many lessons can be learnt from one story. The clear message in this story is how a simple question can change ones life. But I see another lesson in this story. And it is the power of “what if”.
“What if”s can be a form of non-constructive thinking if it is not followed by actions. Many dream of all the “what if”s in the world, but never bother or DARE to do anything about it.
Some, when making a choice, thinks of all the “what if”s. These people either becomes so fixated at finding the perfect choice, or become so fearful of all the negative points of each choice, that they either kill themselves over it, or miss the opportunity.
But in this story, it illustrates the point that “what if” we can make it good. All we need to do is to focus on the positive. Jump into a choice, and MAKE IT HAPPEN. There are negative points to this choice? SURE! Which path in life doesn’t? All it takes is a little faith in yourself, and a whole lot of determination to see it through. Make no mistakes, there are no guarantees that things will go as planned. We, with our own two hands, will just have to make it so.
Life is a journey. Even a journey of a thousand miles, start with a single step.

To Learn
It is estimated that 161 Billion Gigabyte of digital information was generated last year alone. If translated to books, that’s 12 stacks reaching from Earth to the Sun. It is also 3 million times the information in ALL books ever written! Alright alright, they are nothing but bombastic numbers, and most of the information nothing more than rubbish blog like this one. But they are interesting facts nevertheless.
The point is simply, that our minds should not be used as data storage. If that were the case, you and I would have lost our jobs to $25 thumb-drives.
Our job is now to think. To think, to ask, to learn and to manage.
As the saying goes:
“He who asks is a fool for five minutes, but he who does not ask remains a fool forever.”
“The one real objective of education is to have a man in the condition of continually asking questions.”
The wisest use of our minds is not just to hold data, but learning how to work with the data, which requires the art of enquiry.
To do so, we must relearn how to ask questions. As with all arts, it is not an easy task to learn, and requires discipline and practice with a dose of humility.
