The Crying Rock

That rock
sitting near the hills
hugging the betel-nut trees and the ferns
smiling as the sun's ray showers over him

That hills
looking down the valley
waterfalls running smoothly into the rock pool
the water ripples and sways with the wind


That rock
beside him the spring water appears
spring water and rock
become friends
best friends
wonderful friends
learned to love
side by side
every day
every night
every moon
every sun
every rain

Then
one day
the rock wonders
why suddenly the  spring water no more there
disappears

so dry

so quiet

no more songs of water flowing

no more life..

Is it summer?
a drought comes a visiting?
but isn't it winter still?
even if it is summer time, spring water never leave..
why you leave me..
what did i do wrong?
did i say something wrong?
where have yesterdays gone..


That rock
weeps
cries
asking
wanting


Still the spring water keeps her silent
disappear
without leaving foot prints.

The Sun Is Gone

I will share with you people this time on the topic of love has died. This is a real situation where one of the party is trying to make an exit but do not want to tell you outright.  Something like making a quiet exit.  The best method of getting out of a relationship using the 'quiet exit' way is by killing the love softly. Doing it in a subtle way.  Unnoticed at first but, later, it become obvious, slowly it will surface, the disappearance that is almost unnoticed by the one who is to be left behind. 

The trick is, not to even utter a word about exiting.  Just play with the  game but in a less frequent manner.  Pick and choose when to meet and when to make that slow disappearance. Your partner will soon realized that something is not right.  She/he will feel certain degree of emptiness and coldness from your act.  However, she/he cannot put her/his finger on it.  She/he can't be certain of what's going on.  That's the next advancement, people.  Leave him/her confuse.  Then afterwards, the goodbye part will be much easier.  Because, chances are, she/he the one who will say the goodbye thingy.  Got it.  Clever move, right.  But, you must be a very cold-hearted person to do it that way.  It is indeed a nasty and wicked way of handling a farewell to someone whom you must have loved at certain time and, to not be able to face and own-up to your act may catch up with you later in life, that is, other people will recognize this bad trade of yours and the stigma is this, you  are a "fake", a "plastic" hence, not real.  Big risk to gamble a reputation.

Sad.  But, to the one who is being treated this way, my best advice is, to learn your lesson well.  Do your bit on the crying department, if that can save you from grieving.  Let the sky fall if you must.  So long as you can get over it.  I know, it is not easy.  Particularly if, he/she was in the category of "soulmate" "true love" kind of relationship, yes?  Find your way to get over it.  Listened to all those sad love songs.  Make a special play list , in fact, that will do you good.  Well, do not be disheartened by all this.  You will survive the ordeal at the end of it.  So, cheer up people. 

The Rapids

There are times when things just get entangled with each other until it become so messed-up its just impossible to be straightened anymore.  Its when you are deep in  a serious crisis.  You have reached the rapids in your river of life.  Things just move at ultra pace with many danger zones at every corner you go.  The situation will get nasty if you were ambushed by your enemy.  The only solution is to find your way out, fast.

When you are working to re-build a marriage that has come to the stage of irretrievable situation, the rapids situation will be the environment for you to face.  But, steadfast is the keyword here.  Be sure of your own strength, continue moving forward and do not turn back.  The ultimate goal is to achieve peaceful resolution to the crisis and the irretrievable marriage issue in the most amicable way possible.  A broken marriage is the ultimate situation where finalization of the determination of the marriage is the consideration for all concerns.  Is this the part where marriage is built?  Yes. Your new marriage.  If you are on for it.

Alright, you may be thinking and ask these questions "but isn't this blog about building a marriage? Whats this talk about crisis and determination of a marriage?  Sounds like destroying to me."   Well, you are absolutely right!  There are times people where the building that you have built has some defective works in it.  Building built not following the standard specifications of the builders and the quantity surveyors have confirmed these building defects.  And, from the professional findings, your building is no longer safe for human habitation. What are you to do? Continue living in that building when it is no longer safe to do so.  And continue to be stubborn just because your ego is bigger than your brain even though your life is in danger?  Decision and decision must be made for the sake of your safety and the safety of your loved ones. Split and let go.  Go easy on your ego.  Keep your self dignity but let go your arrogance.  It is the beginning of the end.  The end must prevail in this situation.  Did I mention 'destroy' at my home page?  You need to destroy bad karma in order to possess good karma.  Think positive.  If your spouse is not health hazardous to you, mentally and physically, perhaps, you may opt to continue living your life with him-her.  If the situation is the other way around, the exit is the only avenue to consider.

You do not want to get stuck in the rapids longer than you should.  Its a danger zone.  Get out while you can.
