After a few weeks of intense study of the topic "adolescence" in GP, I find that I myself, no matter how mature i profess myself as, am still an emotionally insecure and fragile adolescent. I am reluctant to step into the fledgling adolescent that is already upon me. I thought I have passed the adolescence stage...the game has just begun...i was so astonished by my slow emotional development...I was too childish. Never in my wildest dream did i imagine that adolescence is a burden that would weigh heavily down my shoulders...
I am trapped in the midst of adolescence, which I earnestly wish to but am unable to fight...
Everything happened so fast in the past two months. It was like a dream. And I, the dreamer, have finally waken up, in a realisation that i sincerely wish not to have realised. Yes, life is full of paradoxes. In the past two months, as I see more clearly about true friendship, I am more confused in the complexity and perplexity of friendship. My friend Zi Wei left for NZ a week ago, and i was there to send him off. There is a cliche that says that when a person is about to leave us, we would then start caring for him and paying attention to him. This is not true for me!!! I started becoming more aware of this friend only after a week since his departure. When i read his blog, i began to notice that he is not the person i thought he is. And the seed of pain and regret of losing a friend only started sprouting after a week of dormancy. I really start thinking that everyone is unique....and that everyone is complex in his thinking. I will pay more attention to understanding every friend of mine. And i mean it.
Love, to me, is the greatest thing on earth. Yet it's as deadly as AIDS to me. I don't feel much loves from the people that surround me. Love, of course, means more than romantic love. It includes love from friends also. And I can hardly feel the love of my relatives in a foreign country. And i have no lover....so love from friends is the only source of love for me. To me love is like a source of nutrients...Dunno why, i always feel that i am the love giver, but the love i receive in return is meagre...maybe i am too greedy...maybe i am mistaken...love and frenship is not maths, the eqn need not to be balanced... Dunno why i am constantly plagued by a lurking virus called depression, which culminates in the presence of loneliness. But i seem to have found a cure: brotherhood...but it is still in its primitive stage...it needs the element "time" to further enhance and prove its workability.
If i am confused with friendship and love, then i am totally at loss for me myself and I. After 16 years of living, growing and learning, i find that the most confusing thing to me is still my own self...my true self...the real me...the inner me. Everyone has his uniqueness and individuality....what's mine? I am really in the search for my self-identity...
The class had a gathering juz now at school...quite fun...dunno what to say abt it...speechless now...and need a time lag to formulate and organise my thots. A 7-hr sleep would do. I really think that "Auld Lang Syne" is a nice song. Juz like the song "Moon represents my heart", it is immortal.
