Evolve


Change is something that most of us are reluctant about but the fact is, it occurs every minute of your life. I could remember my mother's story when she was young. She would go with her friends and play beside a pond. With her small hand, she would grab a tiny black creature and watch its tail wiggle. They called it "tadpole" but for her it's a black fish.

At home, she found a clear jar, filled it half with water and called it "home for the black fish". She would watch her black fish with fondness. After a couple of days, the wiggling tail was gone and two kicking feet emerged, then two arms. Its lucent eyes turned noticeable. She had to set it free because it won't fit inside a clear jar anymore. She'd seen how the black fish evolved and finally she had to let it go for a tadpole turned into frog.

So what's with the frog? You cannot be a tadpole forever. Change isn't a crime and it doesn't mean compromising your principles and individuality. Dare to change without living the standard set by society.

Change and still be you. For a tadpole will turn into frog but will still prefer to live in a messy pond rather than submerged in a clear water.

Same Road


I’m glad and I’m starting over again. Slowly realizing things and accepting it. For a while I left myself somewhere else trying to find something uncertain. Isolated myself and spent time how will I deal with it. Now I know. Funny, I’m stepping on the same road where I was before. As I promised to myself, I’m back.

You were there

Cradle me like a whimpering child. Let me know I’m not alone and let anxious feeling be gone. Curtail all doubts that lurks within my mind and to you I cast my heart. Forgive me for not being there as I let this busy life stole me from you. I closed my eyes and find my way. Once again, I pray.
