Reintroduction, A New Cause, & What happened?

A Shopping Mall.

What do you think make people to like to go a mall? If mostly isn't because of the crowd?

At least, they won't hate the mall, but people will always have a need to go there?

It is because anything you asked for, it's mostly right there.

Isn't that right?

--------

An item of a hobby, an item of a need - clothes, food, etc,

Or do we shop, because it became a ritual, a habit, or even a obsession?

Did we spent more than we should? What harm had it caused us? Or are yet to come?

Maybe it is not shopping. It is something else.

What had you discovered? Ask yourself.

An obsession isn't a problem. An unhealthy one is.

--------

We all have a different kind of moments in our lives.

Moments of Happiness. Moments of Love. Moments of Pain. Moments of Sadness.

Do you cherished them all, and take them as part of you? Or do you only take a few, and leave the rest aside?

All I can say, each of them are precious.

We experienced happiness, and we remembered that once upon a time, we were happy. And, there is still hope and a light to the end of the tunnel.

We experienced love, and we remembered how we should do the same to our future sons and daughters. Even to our closest friends.

We experienced regret and guilt, which are signs of pain, we know we had done wrong. We learn how not to do it again, and grow to be better. And this is how we experienced pride. Pride, in a good sense. We know we had done something we thought we couldn't achieve. But we did it.

Or even if we didn't know what to do, we fall into sadness. We feel sad. We lost our sense of confidence. But we know, as sooner or later, we seen what others or even our past had taught us that even the best people could jump out of the worst circumstance. Why couldn't we?

Each moment are a part of you. Learn to embrace them. They are all precious.

Not now, perhaps. But one day.

-------

We loved the things we loved to do. We hate the things we hated to do. We envied the other things the others do, that we loved to do ourselves.

The above, is pretty obvious. I like vanilla. You like chocolate. I like. I hate. You like. You hate.

Life is like that.

Or rather, life was like that.

-------

I will ask: How is life?

What would you say?

Do you remember, back in high school, where for many of us, we are still defined by the rules and environment that our parents set us in?

We are not fully defined yet. We wouldn't ready, yet.

We had rules to follow. We had a boundary to follow. Curfew, Homework, Housework etc. Those were the things we used to worry about.

Yet today, look at us. The leash is gone. Or at least, loosen up. Yet, are we doing fine?

And, what do we have on our hands? Did our mind open up? What used to be right is now wrong, and vice versa? Why is that happening? Did reality hit us?

Do we set our own boundary? How good is it?

Did we suffer because of this?

It is part of growing up.

It is call being an adult.

Basically, I wrote all I wanted to write and had in my mind down into the above essay, first, before I started writing my introduction and an end. Then I decide, I wouldn't really need a introduction at all, I am happy with on what I had.

I would say, I really loved what I write above, and it just seems - all from my heart and soul. I never knew I could actually write like that and I am proud of it. At least, much better than I did from my initial blog entries. Those are pretty bad. This is definitely better.

Well, just a quick share, the above content is related what I had experienced as a young adult for the last one year. Life before hand, is still what i call, pretty much in-wrap, or perhaps you might call it, 'right there in a comfort zone.'

Life was definitely easy. Life is tough. No wonder most of them says: 'Hoho, nothing beats high school.' They are absolutely right.

I was having a drive of my lifetime, speaking to the Lord, for the first time in a very long time.

'I asked: Lord, fill in the gap i am experiencing right now.'

This is where the content, above, came in. This is part of that gap that I am experiencing. That intoxicating pain I felt, sometimes. How I wish I could just removed it.

But now I know, is it really a part of growing up. My mind wasn't the mind I had before. My heart is tainted by the reality of life. But i have only two choices. Either I deal with it or I don't.

Here's a tidbit on what happened last one year, in written words. I am going to tell you why I am sharing this.

- July 2011. It all begins.
- I face stress.
- Stress slapped me hard and I got depressed.
- I did some decision which I thought was correct, and begin practicing some new habits.
- Habits was fine, at first.
- I lost my identity, midway, call it an 'Identity Crisis'.
- 'Disbelief Attitude' comes in, which I became cold and refuse to trust and believe in anything, at first sight.
- Begin April 2012, I realized I made the biggest mistake in my life. What I did/cause: relationships to most people, worsen, whatever I did within a month before, I just felt wrong.
- April - May 2012. In a speedy recovery.

It was both my worst and best time of my life. Do you know why? I both loss and gain so much *raise up both my hands to express in a form of big* from this experience.

I don't think many would understand what I gone through. I can honestly say at one point during this one year period, that I had found the answers in life. At the age of 23. Not many can say that. But that is before my whole identity went into deep trouble.

I am really not sure why did that happen. I could remember many memories from this entire period of time, except this.

All that are left are just blurs and distortion.

I shared this because I want to share one last bit of information which I experienced. It is alongside with what I had shared with you, above.

You see, I am really blessed and is always glad that I am given to have such sensitive and a heart for other people, that it is what that had always to keep going on with life. Therefore, my eureka moment was to actually help the young people of the community, with whatever I had and will go through.

That is the whole point of this post. To help the young adults.

That moment, and the process, took a great turn in my life. Which, too, inspired me to begin writing again and revamp my blog.

And finally, gave me a good cause, to write. A blog about and for young adults.

Kudos,
