bachelors and bachelorettes (Fur Elise)

Looking at the bright lights, the enormous building structure is more or less in place. It was massive and gigantic. For 1year plus, this area is bustling with life, trucks with tonnes of materials were going in and out endlessly, tiny ant-like human beings swarmed the whole site; and the promise was to changed the skyline and the economical value of my country - forever.

1 year ago, travelling along the road, i was tired. my weary eyes, i looked at the infrastructure then the skies; "woh" i though to myself, bustling with life and when completed promises alot! Its potential to our country is enormous and is rather sure to be one of the sparkling jewel of the world! .. while mine is no where in sight.

Now; today, same road, same infrastructure i'm looking at, same surroundings, same timing .. But feelings are abit different this time ..

One thing for sure, time has changed and i'm better than where i am 1year ago. Though i'm still weary but things have certainly changed for the better; the picture and plans that i had in mind then .. have all came true.

*YEAH!*

Well, someone told me that singlehood is wonderful! It represents freedom, carefree and no restrictions and no obligations to who-so-ever. Pretty true!? Single but not available, is just another term for "I'm happy and now please get lost!"

Managing your own finances, we can own and buy whatever we want! Routine shoppings on weekends, going for an overseas holidays twice per year, always wanted to own that continental car? get and own a bachelor's or bachelorette's pad!! You saved and spend whatever you earned! No need to report your finances to another person; and talking about .. sharing?

Think of it .. isn't that great? Kinda..

Doing things whatever and whenever or even on an ad-hoc basis is what one would term as freedom and freedom or personal space is priceless!

Freedom to spend more time with friends, going for late night movies, going for a night out in clubs, pubs or ktv lounges. Making more friends and having more funs!

This is YOUTH, and doesn't youth represents fun & laughter, energetic, living for now and no regrets - you live for today and for yourself and no-one else! It's about experimenting life!

Life is short play hard and now thats life! Enjoying youth at its best - to the very maximum.

Getting attached, being hitched and getting married is just a committment, they say. Love fades eventually at some period of time, when love fades and being together is nothing but a habit; what we have is a big big ugly mess.

Pretty screwed up isn't it?? Being single is like having an all-access pass to everywhere while getting married is like you're only restricted to this Area A; exceeding the area is a crime! And mind you, it is not just so simple as trespassing. Alot are at stake.

SO .. isn't it just as good as being single? and calling yourself a bachelor or bachelorette?? no strings attached, self -willingly or co-habited .. isn't this a better idea? why tied up yourself and get suffocated and losing one's freedom???

Grave digging and sucide act.

Then come in reports on adultery and divorce .. So much for love and happily loving and being together ?!

When the thought of going over the red tape excites and you're being lured over; oh well, love goes out of the window, bringing along faithful and trustworthy, the oath taken years back is nothing but a laughing joke!

So much for compromising, understanding and being thoughtful to one another! Like what they said in econs 101 "finance greed is when long term profit is blinded by short term gains, and rationality is thrown out the window"

Human nature like how Adam secretly ate the apple in Eden's garden will keep repeating itself; and the demonic serpent lives inside us all; the world is Eden's Garden!

Of course there're reports of everlasting love, but again you asked. Will I ? Can I ? Will it be me ? All funny questions appeared, kinda scrutinizing yourself. How bout I say insecure then?

The truth is that you and I jolly well know that times changed and a everlasting and forever love is fast becoming fairy tale like. Being together nowadays is not love, but a commitment. And our generation X or Y is not like the previous, our dad and mum's generation.

And having just pure commitment is very scary when not keep in check on a regular basis! It is like a lock with no keys; and one is struggling to break free when the commitment period ends - All hells break loose!!

But all is not lost! Probably peppering commitment with love, garnishing it with a few hugs and kisses and then iced it up with loving and do-able promises; lastly warpped it all up nicely with a sincered heart!

Love will then grow ..... or does it not? HaHaHa .. only time will tell ~

To all: Good Luck w Blessings. + love (爱 很简单)


PS. Love at the end still supersedes all. Being in love is the best feeling a human being can ever get. Though times have changed and things complicated, keeping love at its most basic, pure and simplified form then can it be everlasting, like a vantage watch or a vantage wine.

Love is not just there. It has to be created! Through hardwork, through actions, communication and understanding and always finding things to create new love. Experimenting life together, being together through thick and thin. Communicating and compromising with a smile.

Love is the most power energy and is the most wonderful emotions one can experienced. It creates and breeds life; provides neverlasting energy. And on the other hand, spoilt love creates hate. Hatred and jealousy destroys everything.

People who are in loved. Friends who are in loved and are getting married or have already tied the knot. My Heartfelt blessings to you!

Cheers ~ always with a smile !
