LOVE...what's with it?
well, first it started with the movie Painted Skin, a chinese language movie acted by the still-macho Donnie Yen. i went into the cinema hall, not having a single clue at all bout this movie...NOT a single clue at all...only when i saw the poster at the cinema only i came to know that it is a chinese movie in the olden days era during war....at my first impression when the movie started was like "gone la, another violent movie; slashing n killing n conquering again. what have i gotten myself into?"...hahaha...but as the movie slowly revolves, my whole perception changed.. it was a very interesting storyline altogether, something unexpected and different, yet such a beautiful story...it brought my sister to tears, and i almost shed too...(haha, those who knows me well knows that its hard for me to cry in movies wan...so u can imagine how big an impact this movie was)....the movie was just based on a simple theme : LOVE! it taught me how beautiful love is and the everything that comes with love; the sacrifices, the give-and-take, the willingness to do anything for the loved ones,etc. i was touched. Love was made into such a beautiful and wonderful thing that will prevail till the end and nothing else. Love conquers all.
then, after a few days...my past haunted me! it 'haunted' me in a very strange way, because the presence of that person disturbed me badly..in a way that it brought back the hatred and the anguish i felt long ago...all the "love" (of a friendship) was totally lost and gone by the hatred and anger that i felt in my past ....i was feeling uncomfortable after the encounter...i kept thinking and questioning about what had happen last time...i was trying so hard to ignore and avoid my past all these times, but with just one encounter, everything tumbled and crashed....haiah....but by the grace of God, i manage to talk about it to a friend and now i continue to stand firm of myself...goodbye, my past! i don't want to be in the past anymore.it hurts too badly...Love of God conquers all.
just now, i attended the annual Pesta Tanglung UM, held at the famous Dewan Tunku Canselor.
The turnout was good, the hall was jammed pack with people...it was a teater with dancing and singing in between, not really a full musical la....but the music, dancing n acting was good...everyone was really at their best to really show off their talents within...though the storyline was typical, but it had the simplest theme : LOVE....the love story was the typical 'love-story type'; girl and boy love each other, father object, arguments, etc etc (u know la what will happen in the end)....but it is told in a significant way, simple yet (i believe) manage to get the message across...the message was simple : love conquers all and we should cherish our loved ones and to be faithful to them. Love conquers all.
through all this experiences, they have all taught me that love is just the greatest gift of all. It is always among us...in our relationship with one another; family members, friends, lovers, neighbours,etc...but the problem is, people always like to take love for granted...never wanting to cherish the love that is already there, but trying to seek love in other places, while giving all kinds of excuses....but that is because, people will still be people...they only will believe in visible things; things that they can SEE with their naked eye...and definitely, i admit, love is something not everyone can "see"...its always there, but we somehow fail to 'see' it, and therefore we assumed that it is lost in our lives.....but can we 'see' it actually? of course, it is everywhere!
Love is just about everything. without love, there will never be life. Love conquers all. Alleluia!
