Dusk or Dawn?

Dawn. Definitely. Woke up early today and went for a morning jog and I must say, mornings are beautiful. With the slightly misty air and morning dew clinging to the leaves, it was a fresh breath of air. Okay, I might not be making any sense now, but what I'm trying to say is, I prefer mornings to evenings.

In the morning, the sky's blue. A clear, lovely shade of brilliant blue and the clouds are fluffy. And the best thing about it is you can look up at the sky as long as you want to without feeling the glare of the sunlight. Because at that time, the sun has not fully awaken yet and it's all soft and mellowly. Just enough to light up the sky but not yet enough to scald you. There's no need to squint and you can just relax while your skin absorbs its Vitamin D. There are no cars or motorcycles sprinting on the street so at least the air is not dusty, yet. The wind is cool and refreshing on your face and you just feel alive. Though I must say, it's a really really bad idea to go for a morning jog before having any food in your tummy cause I felt faint-ish afterwards, and ran less than I usually do.

Dusk usually signifies the day is ending. Although yes the sky's beautiful too, with lovely shades of purple and pink, but it lasts so short there's barely time to enjoy it. Plus, the sky soon turns dark and there's no longer any outdoor activity. Everyone retreats indoor to prepare for dinner and bed. On the other hand, dawn signifies a new day, a new beginning. It's full of hopes and possibilities and I just simply love it.

Those Songs

Nice songs are awesome. Especially those spine-tingling ones which touch your heart, deeply. And your whole soul seemed to be connected to those songs. It bleeds along with them. It feels for them. And you just couldn't stop hitting the replay button. Those songs, with emotions so true and raw, are my fav. They seemed to take your heart on an emotional journey which you have never embarked on before, revealing to you things you never knew. Or feelings you never explored. Sometimes, you wish the song would never end. You wish that you could reach out and give them a big fat hug, telling them that it will all be okay, everything will be fine.

Yeah sure, they are just songs, and those singers merely sing them. But sometimes you can't help but to wonder, if they can sing so well it penetrates deep into your heart, could it be they have experienced those same feelings before?

Songs can express feelings in a way words never could. It might be because of the combination of lyrics and music. It does wonders, surely.

Therefore, I just simply dislike current music, all so shallow and seemed to be all about dancing, clubs, drinking, girls and getting hit on. And very flirty, not to mention dirty. Where had all the deep, meaningful ones gone to?

Emotional songs. (Y)

Protective

Despite how much we are annoyed or frustrated at our siblings, when somebody gossip or talk bad about them, we would immediately jump to the defensive side.


18/5/12:
I typed that statement out about a year ago and saved it as a draft. Strangely enough, I came across this tweet today and thought it was damn accurate. And later today I decided to log into my blog account which I haven't log in for a long time and saw this draft which I must say, matches very well! *stricken*

''#Virgo's are born protectors. If you pick on their family or friends be prepared for a hell.''

Maturity

How exactly do you define that huh? Is there an official scale somewhere? I wish there are. Sometimes.


All I know is, when you look back to the time when you were younger, and remember those things you said, and feel that that was really really immature of you, well, then you are even more mature now than you are back then. Because to me, those people who think they are mature are the ones who are the most immature actually. You might think is your everyday action that counts. Oh, you don't watch cartoons? You don't play pretend? You don't play little children's game? Then you must be sooooo mature. NOT. Maturity is based on your mental capability. How you think, how you analyse a situation, how you react in certain cases or conflicts, how you interact with other people, how your brain functions basically. 


Looking back, I can't help but feel how childish I was back then.But I for one know that I am far from being mature. There are still so many little things in live which really irks me even though I know I am supposed to let it go. At least that's what a mature people supposed to do, I think.


Ah well, everybody's definition is different. This is such a metaphorical thing after all. Cheers, and may your brain continue growing wiser each day.
