Somewhere Only We Know

I was out today when the song Where Is The Love was stuck in my head, and I couldn't stop singing it (even though I don't really like it). In that song, there is this one line where it says, "Practise what you preach" and I was wondering how often do I actually do that. Practising what I preach.

You know how they say when it was the easiest to spot the problems with others 'cause you're having that problem yourself, only that you don't realise it, that it's in you.

Anyhow, I was glad I spoke up today, being so frank and direct.

I hope it made a difference.

On another note, there seem to be alot of August babies I know, and all of them are celebrating their 21st birthdays, and that all of them are inviting me to their birthday "parties".

And then I was surfing that day when I chanced on an old friend's blog which lead to many other old friends' blogs.

It seems that as time passes and I get older, I want my list of contacts to get shorter. I rather have a few really good friends than alot of "makan n gather" friends... 'cause I feel after some time, they don't really mean a thing. Gathering after a long time is kinda good, alot of reminiscence, but at the end of the day we are just talking about what we're doing, curious about each others' lives, how many boyfriends we've been with, and talking about keeping in contact which we never really do in the end, anyway.

I'm talking about in general, of course.

This leads me to treasure those closer to me. They are really dear to me, and I really appreciate and treasure their friendship.

Just this week alone I've learnt alot of life lessons from those dear to me... which I still haven't fully absorb in that thick head of mine. And which is through this I truly know... these are the friends who are going to stay in my life for a long, long time.

They care.
