もおいちど、おねがいします.

もおいちど、おねがいします.

It is strange to conjecture, from one's hands, that passing a year has made one wiser. Because experience does not necessarily bring about change to one's life, nor can it possible dent some damage in the history of one's life.

'Because I've walked this stretch of road before, it means I will be able to walk this road of stretch of road again without difficulty, and soon, I can even run on this stretch of road.'


Children take things to a new perspective because they are not arrogant, because they are not stubborn. We say children are great discoverers and explorers, and we are inadequate to assist them in their journey. I am holding dearly my belief that there is a metaphorical leap of faith (many such leaps exists in our pitiful life) when we ascend (or descend) from childhood to teenage, and to adolescent. You can see, if you observe carefully, that every individual encompasses such values, beliefs and habits picked up from young. Many such, shatter in pieces when the leaps of faith is done, but some survive. In many adolescents, I see the jagged juxtaposition of the old and the new, and the inability to soothe and piece the jigsaws together. The inability to do so, will kill many.

'Because I am young, because I believe I know everything I wish to learn, therefore I can swagger and behave like a young prince or princess.'


Many, forget to step down from the thrones of being a temporary prince or princess. The throne is not lost, neither is it taken away. Their kingdom, is the one taken away from them. For a while, they muddle around and try to test the waters. A split decision has to be made: should they abandon the throne and join another kingdom as a commoner, or should they continue to remain on the throne, status quo. Again, many linger over the decision made, or cease to come to a decision. The result is a lost kingdom, a kingdom created from their own debris.

Welcome back, if you've been reading my blog. Edward has never been away, merely just exploring.
