Rainy day

"Why did you lie to me about that?" - A
"About what?" - B
"You know exactly what I am talking about" - A
"Maybe I do, but what is the problem?" - B
"You lied." - A
"I know. I'm sorry, but really I'm only human." - B





"I don't know if I can keep this up." - A
"Why do you say that?" - B
"I just can't." - A
"Can I at least have the reason why you're quitting?" - B
"Because I don't have the confidence that this is going to work" - A





Excuses and more excuses pile up and only end up hurting everyone ultimately.




Anyways, random post. Here's a song that I have been listening to alot lately.
It is a brand new song by Usher. I guess he hasn't lost it yet.

Good song

So I am at work and just bored out of my mind.
I'm just sort of sitting here and doing nothing except listening to music.
I listen to all sorts of music, but lately I've been really into Korean indie rock type music and of course always R&B.
I thought I would share one of the songs that I listen to. It's in Korean, but it is still pretty awesome so have a listen. Disregard the video and just listen to the audio. :D

Random quote

I was surfing the web earlier because I could not sleep due to a fever and I decided to look around my friend's "mini homepages" on Cyworld, a Korean version of facebook/myspace stuff. (It's much better though, trust me). Anyways, back to what I was writing about. I was at one of my friend's page and she had put up a quote on her diary section that read:

"Rather than being scared for what tomorrow might hold and not living to the fullest in fear, I would rather live today to the fullest as if there was no tomorrow to worry about."

I thought this quote was so fitting to what situation I am caught up in right now. Though my problems are personal, I will not be going into detail about what I am caught up in. But the storm that I'm weathering right now has been holding me up in my attempts to reach my potential of what I could accomplish that day because I keep worrying about what tomorrow might hold for me. But really, this is the truth. No one can look even a couple of minutes into the future, even death cannot be predicted. So I say, why not live the moment to the fullest and worry about tomorrow, tomorrow.

Les Thanatonautes

Les Thanatonautes is a science fiction book by a French author, Bernard Werber. I actually read the book in Korean. At first, when it started talking about death and the questions of afterlife and how several individuals began a movement that shocked the whole work at the time of the setting of the novel, my first reaction was like, "What the #$%$ is this?". Then, I got into the book and it is pretty lengthy, and I actually really enjoyed it. It raised multiple philosophical questions and it had little bits and pieces of different tales from different cultures and religions about their thoughts and ideas about the afterlife. Although I am a Christian and believe that there is afterlife for those who believe. I can never be sure until I am dead and finally there myself to witness it. However, I thought it was astonishing that this author did not simply stop at the thought of the question of afterlife, but rather wrote a whole book about these thanatonautes. It is a really interesting read. Makes you want to question how this author even came up with such a story, but it is pretty mind blowing and I enjoyed it alot.
