So i've been watching a Korean Drama that came out in 2009 called Flowers over Boys. It's basically a Cinderella/Little Mermaid story. I'd consider myself a hopeless romantic. I was so much television. The movies always give us stories that give us hope of a life that we wish to have.
I have to wake up and realize that my life is not what I hope it could be. I have to accept my destiny and just take one day at a time. Who knows why people come into our lives. People who come into our lives have this purpose: to teach us something. Our parents/guardians/family who are a part of our lives or not teach us to love, hate, cherish, and hope. Mentors come into our lives to guide us to places where we never thought we could go. Friends share with us their heartache and happiness.
People also leave our lives. As time passes by, we lose touch. Sometimes, it's sudden. It's always hard to let go and move on. Once a person comes into your life, you never forget how they have changed you. You look up to those people who supported and encouraged you. You learn to love them. You are inspired by them.
Sometimes I feel like I'm dreaming. Dreaming that one day I can wake up and say what I really wanted to say. This is not a dream. It is reality. Sometimes I just want to lay down in a field and look at the clouds during the day and the stars at night and not think about anything. I just want to float.
Like atoms that collide, people collide with purpose. It's part of our destiny. The hardest part is living through it and understanding why things happen. Even though it's been three years, it seems like yesterday and I just can't stop thinking about what if. A couple of weeks ago, I saw this movie and at one point, these words made my heart stop:
"'What' and ‘if’ two words as nonthreatening
as words come. But put
them together side-by-side and they
have the power to haunt you for the
rest of your life: ‘What if?'..."
"I don't know how your story ended.
But I know that if what you felt
then was love - true love - then
it's never too late. If it was true
then it why wouldn't it be true
now? You need only the courage to
follow your heart..."
"I don't know what a love like that
feels like... a love to leave loved
ones for, a love to cross oceans
for... but I'd like to believe if I
ever felt it. I'd have the courage
to seize it. I hope you had the
courage to seize it, Claire. And if
you didn't, I hope one day that you
will."
Didn't I tell you I was a hopeless romantic?
I'm rambling. Don't know who is all going to read this, but I just can't stop thinking about how I need to stop being selfish and just take things the way they are.
I want to get a Ph.d. I want to help others. My mother always told me that I had a problem of helping others outside of the family and being selfish at home. My ultimate goal is to pay-it-forward to others. Whether people want my help or not, I just want to be a part of their life and hope that one day they can look back and think about how I've helped them or guided them like Greg did for me.
One day, my happiness will come. I just have to be patient. I feel like I haven't really lived life. Almost 25 and still so much to learn. I am patient. Don't get me wrong...I'm a really happy and optimistic person. I just go through some tough times. My aunt always says that we suffer at points of our life, but in the end, we reap the benefits later.
Until next time, I'll keep watching my Korean dramas and try to update this blog. It's hard, but I will try.
