Believe.
Act according to your belief.
If you’ve been lying, that’s fine.
Ask for forgiveness,
be honest,
and carry on with your new heart.

Living
Perhaps at the back of my mind,
I had slid one foot lingering in the back door
as we philosophized over “to love or to survive”.
Like a reflex against my naïveté,
words escaped my lips quicker their meanings.
After a long darkness stopped by
(long to experience, short to remember)
I returned to speculate:
that it is both the hands of the heart and the mind held together
that leads the dance of this life
peppers in living, with saltiness of surviving.
So, all of this is just to say
thank you for conversing with me that day
in the darkest time of that night
under the moonlight.

Heart
Now is the time to plunge in.
Unplug yourself from distractions.
Fear no more. Escape no more.
Let me be with you in each step.
We have accomplished much so far,
and we can reach our dreams.
Put your faith in us.

Forgive
Can you forgive those who hurt you
because they thought the pain will do you good
but instead it has inflicted a lasting scar
whose roots reaches deepest core of your bones?
Them again,
have you ever hurt anyone
under the grand name of
“good intention”?

Like
Regardless of what it is,
It is such a good feeling to know
that there is something that makes your heart beat fully.
Yes, it may look silly,
it may not be “productive”
but you will know
when your heart feels full,
and you just want to keep going.
I hope more times like this will last.

Restless
A fire flickers on a flint of wood.
It is undeniably flammable,
yet so ephemeral and minute.
Let it become large, and it engulfs.
Let it dissipate, and no one will remember.
Let your eyes mesmerize in its glow,
and the time will slip by.
Stay awake. It may be painful,
but this is the only way.

Mission
Remember what you stood up for.
All the talks, the work, and the collaborations
they meant something.
And the history won’t go away.
As you sail out there,
remember where you came from.

Warmth
The warmth that I felt then
Still lasts to this day.
Thank you for your smile
which filled my soul with a soft warmth.
I forgot about it for awhile,
but your warmth has been with me after all this time.

Best
Did you try your best?
It’s alright if things didn’t go alright.
Give it your best shot always.
You will know when you have reached there.

Earlier
Let’s get up early!
Although it is painful,
it’ll be worthwhile in the end!
Believe in your gut feeling.
Keep your head up,
and keep going.
