The Messenger

Do you Yahoo? MSN?

Instant messengers are fun and funny at times. Been using it for ages and you can see funny messages posted up on them. People often leave status messages that are fun to read and it can be quite entertaining.

I'm sure by now, those of you who uses them realizes that there are other use for it as well. Some people do advertising with them and well, some would use it as a means of war. Sometimes you see people leaving hate messages across one another and to think of it.. its kinda childish. You leave some hate messages and hopes that everyone reads it too... What are you trying to get at? Its time to grow up people...

The Pride of a Lion

Its been a while since I added my last post. Probably because nothing much is happening :D. Is that supposed to be good or bad? Hmm... Well, what is it this time that I'm gonna crap about?

Let's get back to basics. Feelings... Our pride is something strong, yet fragile as it is easily hurt by people. Why do I wanna talk about it? There's nothing wrong with pride, really... We all need some pride in ourselves but still, anything too much won't be good.

Its nice to hear sorry from someone isn't it? Ask yourself this though, how willing are you to say sorry when you did something wrong? Because of pride, some people would rather choose to keep quiet and pretended that they did nothing wrong. Rather than admitting their mistakes, they just act along. Its not that bad really, but then again those who are too proud to say sorry claim that people who admits faults are "weak". Who is the weak one now? Who is the coward?

We are often taught to be forgiving and kind. Though its hard sometimes but we try don't we all? No one is perfect and none can be that great of a man. Still, being able to accept mistakes would be a good start in being a bettermen. Pride, why did you make people behave the way they are? For those who are proud and think highly of themselves, you are not so great... Before you point finger at someone else, know that when doing so, you have 3 fingers pointing back towards yourself! Isn't is weird? If you ever wanna blame someone for selfish, ask yourself too, aren't you? Else, conflicts would never have happened in the first place if you never argued. When disagreements happen, don't blame it solely on your opponent. One hand won't clap and you certainly are a part to blame for it as well. What is important is that we realize our mistakes but then again, pride takes over and you're too proud to lose. What is there to lose?


Pride... So strong, yet so fragile...

Pride goes before a fall. -proverb-

Pride goes before, and shame follow after. -proverb-

Pride is as loud a beggar as want, and a great deal more saucy. -proverb-

Pride is the mask of one's own faults. -proverb-

Pride joined with many virtues chokes them all. -proverb-

Pride will have a fall. -proverb-

He that is proud eats up himself. Pride is his own glass, his own trumpet, his own chronicle; and whatever praises itself but in the deed, devours the deed in the praise. -william shakespeare-
