New year is a few days away…..what are your resolutions? Come
to think of it, do people still make resolutions these days? Call me
old-fashioned, but I still do. Granted…
some never got started, some were abandoned halfway, some are still
work-in-progress…..all in all, it was a good year! Hahahah! Who am I kidding? Most of time, myself, really. But
then, I’ve had worse… so, overall, this
is an improvement.
Do you ever hope for something to happen, year after year, and
it never came? I guess, we all do. Our little secret fantasies, most likely quite impossible to achieve and
even silly, sometimes. Yet, we secretly wished that someday, by some miracle…. it happens! And as the years go by, we begin to lose hope or
even turn bitter thinking about it.
It happened to me.
Not the miracle part, but the bitter part. And since it’s my secret fantasy, I won’t
tell you either… hehehe! What is the
point of fantasizing on something you know will never happen? Why bother getting yourself disappointed year after year? But I am an Aquarian, a born dreamer. I live on dreams…Get down to earth, boy! It ain’t gonna happen!!!
In the hurricane of my sometimes unstable mind, where my
dreams got uprooted, where lightning struck down my hopes, thunder exploded in the face of my
yearnings and the tsunami of rage tore through my mind…. Okay, okay, we've got the
point….now, let’s move on. Alright, urmmm…. Now where
were we? Oh yes, hurricane. I realized one thing….there’s always a
rainbow after the storm!
Hahahah! Sorry, can’t help
it!
Hey, I meant it.. it was a rainbow..somewhat odd-coloured
though, nevertheless, it looked like a rainbow! Whateverrrr...back to my realization.
Even though our secret fantasies might not come true, even though it’s way
too far-fetched… it’s okay. It’s our
safe house, a place where we can hide…
our form of escapism. It’s a place where
everything is perfect… at least to our perception of perfection. A place where we can go into and feel good about ourselves, isn’t it
great? This reminds me of the song,
Welcome to my World by Jim Reeves. It’s
a beautiful song… the link is below.

So friends, it doesn’t matter whether you get that promotion or that pretty girl or
that handsome guy or that Porsche or that mansion…..as long as you keep secret
fantasy alive….you can experience perfection anytime! Happy New Year !!!
