Been joking about. Lol. Tenacious hold on all that I do. Hope its gonna get better. So many dreams, a multitude of ideas, but a lack of time, drained of energy. Gonna go watch movie soon. Spiderman 3. Still love the quote "With great power comes great responsibility". Why? Simple enough to answer question...

I've always believed that all of us were endowed with abilities beyond our imagination. How much of it we choose to and are able to tap usually is the deciding factor. Like it or not, I think that I've been able to tap more of it than most people I know... thus I gotta be responsible for all the advantages it has given me. So people can ask me why I am so motivated. I would prefer to ask- What use is your ability if you don't stretch yourself with it at all? Why do yourself and everyone around a dis-service by sealing away your potential... just because you are afraid?

I've been observing it for some time now. I've been wondering what makes the crucial difference. The thing is, so many of us fear being seen as different from others, that they try to act as what an average and normal person would do. Unfortunately, this leads to them limiting their potential to that which is rated "normal" and thus leads to "average" results. Then when they see that something is reachable and achievable, they have to tell themselves "No!" leading to the cap on their potential being sealed all the more tightly, and they can only wonder how others do it. Deep within you, isn't there a spark wishing that you can excel just as well as the other person? Worst thing is, you know you can. You just fear to face yourself. Excuses come up I suppose. I've done it myself before. Like about my cousin, or about Woon Peng (tt gay :P) even. But when I finally decided to break free of my limitations, I had to face the truth that I was the one who had been limiting myself. And when you see that, when you acknowledge that, and you see the wasted years, the huge opportunity cost, let me ask you, how can you not reach out for your dreams?

Of course, even after doing that, what you do will hardly be perfect. To make it, you have to fall so many many times. Make the mistakes first, that when the right time comes, you are tempered by experience. Some will call you a fool initially, others will ask you for advice on how to get started on this track. In these years where we grow up, I suppose that is perfectly normal. Yet as we grow older, other things start to happen I suppose. And that is where I am now. A stage where I have to make the decision once more. Am I myself, am I to be the ideals that others might think me to be, or will I fail my ideals at this point in time? But as I thought about it, the decision was made long ago. Not by me. Not the conscious me anyway. That I was given this level of ability has to mean something. I obviously have a life to live for. No time for doubts. The only way is.. forward.... And to take as many people as I can down the same path.

It obviously doesnt benefit me as Daryl asked. But the point is, what else am I supposed to do? See all that potential wasted? Or lend a hand in breaking apart those chains? The choice is simple to me... the question never to be asked....


Remembering what life is.....
