June 15, 2006Last night something happened that made me weep. It caused this tiny flicker of faith in me to die. Will elaborate once I’m coherent. Something that made me see time and again that life isn’t fair. That the world is totally screwed up. It’s full of suffering and pain. People die. Children starve. Innocents are abused. For about an hour I just cried my heart out. Then I suddenly saw a light heard Travis’ acoustic version of Baby One More Time on the radio. And I started to laugh. I was crying and laughing at the same time coz the song reminded me of something my friend Agnes said. She said “What if the Gregorian Chant has their version of Don’t Cha by the Pussycat Dolls?” Imagine those serious faced monks chanting “Don’t cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me”
Get it? Okay you can lower that raised eyebrow.
Yes I am crazy!
But the funny thing is that this craziness is my secret to staying sane. Laughing as the world around me crumbles.
Never taking life seriously and keeping in mind that nobody has come out of it alive yet.
And reciting my mantra below whenever I feel those negative energies enveloping me.
Translation: SHIT HAPPENS!
Here's my mantra: "Do not do unto others what you can do today."
That is all.
