The Babbling Bleating Old Man

Yes. Finally I’m posting an article which will make some sense to the readers. Well, it’s not that I have plenty of people reading my blog anyway. I’m glad it’s finally over. But to be precise, glad is not the apt word to describe what is running inside me now.

It all stretched from the middle of 2006 when I was assigned to prepare a video presentation for Tok Pa’s visit. The disparity I witnessed convinced me to write the article below:

How can I forget the flak I went through. I was in depression for a couple of days wondering if what I did was correct. Well, probably I was less mature and patient then. I participated in the CMSA committee for 2007/2008 - trying to make a change. It all ended yesterday when the new committee elected.

I’ve a few good points to reflect on. I can’t judge if things were better compared to last time. In my personal opinion, most Malaysians aren’t too bothered to participate. Society quality comes at the last few rungs of their priority list. The best things are free food, free fun, free etc. Sorry if I am being sceptical with the words I chose - that’s the hard fact to chew.

This is the irony. A group of people tries to send the message let’s get together and understand one another better. The other group isn’t too bothered. Seems like a bad mismatch. Probably, I will concede that we are a failing society. 

No, I’m not willing to finish
I’m still not finished
On this limitless journey
Look at me, my unstopping feet
Already forgotten where my affairs are

Who can change the length of human life?
Who knows how horrific eternity can be?
Who understands that life is often more ruthless than destiny?
Only that no one is willing to admit defeat

We are both constantly chasing that road, forgetting the way out
Chasing a rare satisfaction in the midst of disappointment
We are both extricating somber bitterness within a dream
Roaming around where the lights end
We can’t reach the destination, back to the origin
Enjoying that unending road

Performing on the whole road, it’s hard not to be confused
Looking back on the whole road, it’s hard to not be numb
On this intimate continuous road
Let me be like you
You are like me
How can this be lonely?

Since there’s no destination, back to the origin
I think we both don’t, dont care

As animalistic you can be, I choose to remain human.

Save Malaysia.

All that I think is important, is not after all. I just wanna sit alone under a tree accompanied by the drizzle.

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin’ when I hold you
Don’t you know I feel the same

‘Cause nothin’ lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it’s hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain

We’ve been through this such a long long time
Just tryin’ to kill the pain

But lovers always come and lovers always go
An no one’s really sure who’s lettin’ go today
Walking away

If we could take the time
to lay it on the line
I could rest my head
Just knowin’ that you were mine
All mine
So if you want to love me
then darlin’ don’t refrain
Or I’ll just end up walkin’
In the cold November rain

Do you need some time…on your own
Do you need some time…all alone
Everybody needs some time…
on their own
Don’t you know you need some time…all alone

I know it’s hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn’t time be out to charm you

Sometimes I need some time…on my
own
Sometimes I need some time…all alone
Everybody needs some time…
on their own
Don’t you know you need some time…all alone

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain
I know that you can love me
When there’s no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
‘Cause nothin’ lasts forever
Even cold November rain

Don’t ya think that you need somebody
Don’t ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
You’re not the only one
You’re not the only one

Chivalry?

GAH…

 
Go live in oblivion.
