Wound

Wound.

Still painful,

although it seems to be healed.

Most painful,

when it is caused by the one you have trusted.

Forever painful,

because love has everlasting edges.

Bleeding.

still

there

deep

in my soul.

My Wound.

Quote of the Day

Hold fast to dreams

for if dreams die

life is a broken winged bird

that cannot fly.

She Shines

Hearing the rumors,

makes my heart wonders

with what if, what if, and what if ---

Deep from my heart,

for the sake of the people

that she loves,

I am willfully

Wishing her good health,

and happiness.

Inspiration

In the darkness of the night,
far from the kindness;
in the absence of the star light,
There exist a tiny hope of life,
For our survival;
For our escape;
For our happiness;
Our little glimpse of light, ---
Our inspiration.

Cannibalism

Parents eat their own offspring --- as a natural order in the animal world. Unthinkable, but it's true. Studies show that likely this behaviour is for the energy source. Other says this alone cannot explain the phenomenon. New studies show reproductive activity is also connected to the behaviour of cannibalism. The strange fact is that those parents who eat their own young lings also raised up selected offspring. The secret of nature, according to the new studies is that, (for the young ones to avoid the danger of cannibalism) --- is "Grow faster or Get eaten."

Our Hope

Hope

Shine

With her smile.

Looking Away

With the sun set,
seagulls are dancing on the drawing tidal waves.
Orange and red and peach,
the influences are brimming over the pier bridge.
When I look away,
all the way to the west horizon;
Until it reaches to the east:
To the east,
Where ---
where the moon is brighten up in the darkening sky.

The Morning Star

Shinning brightly

over the eastern horizon,

for the tears of the painful hearts.

With love;

they look up ---

With smile;

they yawn for freedom ---

With their guiding star;

They have strength against the fear.

Stamp of the Day

She gives her life for us,
and we give our hearts for her,
forever and always.
Nothing can come between us,
No one can change our hearts.

Trust No One

One of the dearest teachers advised me once that
"Love all, but trust few."

Believe

Believe what is in your heart,

what your gut is leading;

not in what you see or hear

or what your are told to believe.

Perceptions are delusional at times.

Only mindfulness will set you free,

will let you feel the path ---

the true path, which will be

leading you to the truthful heart.

Free Bird

Free Bird Toward to a Free Burma

My home....
where I was born and raised
used to be warm and lovely;
now filled with darkness and horror.

My family....
whom I had grown with
used to be cheerful and lively;
now living with fear and terror.

My friends....
whom I shared my life with
used to be pure and merry;
now living with wounded heart.

A free bird...
which is just freed
used to be caged
now flying with an olive branch
for the place it loves.

Hidden Pain, Forgotten Tears

Deep inside, there is pain
all alive and enduring game.
Tears are forgotten
Oh, forgotten??

Too soon???
Our hearts still beating???
I want to know.

Never Forget

Never Forget for those who have strong believe.
Never Forget for those who have given their lives.

Never Forget for those who have been honorably patriotic.

Never Forget for those who have said ---

"Give me Liberty or Give me Death!"

Animation of the Day

Quote from the animation: Bug's Life (Disney) 1998
Hopper = Leader of the Grasshopper gang
who's been bullying food from the poor ants)
Hopper: Guys order another round
because we are staying here!
The Gang: Yayyyyy (grass hoppers cheering)
Hopper: What was I thinking??
Going back to Ant Island. I mean, we just got here, and
we have more than enough food to get us through the winter. Right?? Why go back?? ---------
But there was that ant that stood up to me.
One of the Gang members: Yeah, but we can forget about him!
Another Gang member: Yeah, it was just one ant.

Hopper: Ooo-oooh! One ant! Yeah, you're right! It's just one ant!
Gang member: Yeah, boss. They're puny!
Hopper: Hmm, puny. Say, let's pretend this grain is a puny little ant.
(Hopper hit one of the gang members with a seed)
Didn't that hurt?

Gang member: Nope.
(Again, he hit him with another seed)
Hopper: Well, how 'bout this one?
Gang member: Are you kidding?
Ha-ha-ha-ha (laughing the whole gang)

Hopper: Well, how 'bout this?
(Hopper opens up the big bottle of collected seeds
which run over some members of the gang)

Gang members: Ahhhhh--- (screaming from those
grass hoppers being squash by the mountain of seeds).

Hopper:You let one ant stands up to us, then they all might stand up.
Those puny little ants outnumber us a hundred to one.
And if they ever figure that out, there goes our way of life!
It's not about food. It's about keeping those ants in line.
That's why we're going back!
Does anybody else wanna stay?

Rrrrrrrr--- (the whole grass hopper gang buzzing
their wings ready to fly)

One of the Gang members: He's quite a motivational
speaker, isn't he?

Hopper: Let's ride!
(Grasshopper gang flies towards Ants Island)

Flik = The ant with innovative ideas

Hopper: Whose idea was this? Was this yours, Princess?
Princess Atta: Just get behind me, girls. It'll be okay.
(talking to the little group of student ants named
blueberry group, who has participated in the event of
trying to coup Hopper and it's gang)

Flik: Leave her alone, Hopper.
The bird was my idea.
(Ants built the fake bird to scare away Hopper and it's gang).
I'm the one you want.

(Hopper snap his fingers and signals.)
(The bully Thumper, the trained ruthless grasshopper,
who does all the dirty jobs for Hopper, arrived and
starting to punch and beating on Flik.
Squash, squash,--- (heavy blows) (Flik grunting))

Ant Crowd: Ohhh --- (sympathetic ant crowd watch and grunting)
(finger snapping from Hopper)
(Thumper stops beating)

Hopper: Where do you get the gall to do this to me?
Flik: (panting) You were --- You were gonna squish the queen.

Ant Crowd: Arrr (all gasping)
Dot: (Baby Ant Princess, the leader of the
Blueberry student group) It's true.
Hopper: I hate it when someone gives away the ending.
(Thumper roared and put in more punching on Flik)
(Flik moaning)
Hopper: (talking to flik)You piece of dirt! No, I'm wrong.
You are lower than dirt. You're an ant!
(Hopper, ---turning back to the ant crowd)
Let this be a lesson to all you ants.
Ideas are very dangerous things.
You're mindless, soil-shoving losers,
put on this earth to serve us!
Flik: You're wrong Hopper.
(while talking to the ant crowd, Hopper turning back
and looking at badly beaten Flik)

Flik: (inhaling deeply) Ants are not meant to serve grasshoppers!
I have seen these ants do great things. Years after years they somehow manage to pick food for themselves and you.
So-so who is the weaker species? Ants don't serve grasshoppers.
It's you who need us.
Ant Crowd: (Gasping and Chattering faintly.)

Flik: (continued) We're a lot stronger than you say we are.
And you know it, don't you???
(Hopper grunts and put a heavy blow on Flik and
ready to squish with feet)
(Princess Atta comes in and shielded Flik lying on ground)
(Hopper stops his attempt to squish Flik)

Hopper (Chuckle) Well, Princess Atta?

One of Hopper gang members: Umm, Hopper? I hate to interrupt, but, umm---
(Hopper looks around and see all the ants in the crowd really mad,
standing up and ready to fight.)

Hopper: YOU ANTS STAY BACK!
(All the ants join their hands and stand straight with grins and coming forward)

Hopper Gang members: (while stepping back) Oh! This is such a bad idea.
Princess Atta: You see, Hopper, --- Nature has a certain order.
The ants pick the food, the ants keep the food,
and the grasshoppers leave!

Ant crowd: Yayyy!!!! (yelling and running forward to attck Hopper)
(The grasshopper gangs runs away outnumbering by the ant crowd.)
