The 7 Sins. Which is the most dangerous?

According to the poll (of which not many actually did do but hey any answer is an answer...) So according to the poll, it's noted that lust and greed are considered the most dangerous.

I suppose Lust is dangerous in that it causes most to think with anything but their mind. It's distraction at its best and can serve to bring down even the greatest of nation. Case point: Troy.

What about greed? Greed for money, greed for food, greed for wenches. Not having enough of something and always wanting more. It can result in many deaths if one wants more power. Case point: Hitler (yeah....I couldn't think of a better example. Hitler keeps popping into my head especially after typing out my European essay)

But do you know what I think is the most dangerous?

PRIDE

Pride is a dangerous sin for it is to do with one's unwillingness to accept that his/her actions were wrong. And not being able to admit one was wrong is truly dangerous. It is not uncommon for people to have pride. In fact it is necessary to have pride. But it is possible to have too much pride. Pride refuses to allow one to see beyond they're own reasoning and further ensures that one is adamnet about one's stance. It can cause others to give up on a prideful person, leaving him/her on their own.

You may have your own views about which sin is more dangerous. And it is to do with the difference of personality. Some may feel that wrath is more dangerous and it may be true but in different situations.

Whatever the matter may be, it is undeniable that everyone of us possesses at least 1 of the 7 sins. I for one know that I am a prideful person. Sometimes too prideful for my own good ; )

But with time, each of us either learns how to curb that sin in us or we embrace it whole heartedly. Whatever the action we take, the sin will remain with us either in a large way or a small part.

Do you Know that Feeling?

I just read my post; the one before this. And did you know something? They say that when you hate something about someone, it's probably because you either behave the same way or atleast used to do so.

I used to be like that. Immatured, confused and I suppose ignorant to those around me. But I learnt. And that is all I intended with that post. I hope you'll learn. If not now, evantually. Please fight for what you want.

DO you know that feeling?

That feeling of desperation?

That intense desire to succeed?

That suddent wave of want that leaves you aching to fufill your dreams?

Do you know that feeling?

You should.

Everyone has had it atleast once.

If you're human, definitely more than once.

So what if that need or intense desire dies down after awhile? So what if suddenly you feel empty? So what if you feel that you're not having that drive?

I'll tell you what.

Give it time. That aching need or drive to succeed in life will not always be there. It comes in spurts just as how happiness and sadness, anger and sorrow, laughter and tears takes turn to appear in your life.

Just know that when that need suddenly disappears, it's not going to stay away. It'll come back. Give it time.

Oh and bloody hell...I just realised how solemn it has become!!!!!! Egads! We must not allow this darling non loyal readers who probably have stopped reading this blog.

NEXT POST: THE 7 SINS...WHICH IS THE MOST DANGEROUS?

Suck it Up

We all have to grow up. We all have to learn right from wrong. We all have to suck it up.

Never have I been more agitated before. I've always understood and I'll never stop understanding. Maybe that's what makes everything awful. Understanding. By understanding someone or what they're going through, you're expected to remain calm and not get angry at one's misgivings. I'm starting to feel weary of this.

Why?

Because everyone has issues.
Because everyone has problems.
Because no one has a perfect life and neither do they have a perfect journey.

So why are some people more openly depressed about their life while others are quieter about their problems. The only answer is the difference in personality.

Do I have a problem with this?

Are you kidding? Of course not. I don't judge people based on their personality. They are entitled to thier own opinions.

But what I don't like is when these different groups of people start judging one another based on the assumption that they're better either in terms of "My life's worse than yours and I don't get why you get everything!" or "You're life isn't bad at all. So why do you overact?"

Honestly, both sides should just shut up, grow up and FREAKING SUCK IT UP!!!

God....How I wish I can grab these people by their throats and tell them that sometimes to get something from life, you have to give something first.

No one gives you anything on a silver platter and if you run away at the first sign of a fall, frankly speaking...you're gonna be running for the rest of your life...and if that's the case, good luck because you're not going to get far.

And what about those people who feel as though they have the right to make the people around them feel miserable when they feel down and sad? I can't judge you because I'm not like you and I have to accept that everyone's different. But I have only one thing to ask of you. Can you please understand that it is UNFAIR when you make those around you miserable only to come back all smiling after a few days expecting those people to accept you without question.

DO YOU KNOW WHY WE DO THAT!?!?!? DO YOU KNOW WHY EVERY SINGLE GOD DAMN TIME ONE OF YOU FALLS AND GRUMBLES AND COMPLAINS AND DISAPPEARS ONLY TO RETURN TO A GROUP OF FRIENDS WHO ACCEPT YOU AGAIN?!?!?!

I'll tell you why. Because we're idiots. We care for you'll dispite all the hurt we have to keep going through. We're such idiots. We hopelessly belive that you'll would change after each time. We're such dumb idiots. We don't want to see you'll fall again because we feel as though we are falling too.

Sometime ago, we felt as though we might have caused that hurt you'll seemed to hold but you know what? That's utter bullshite. When you stumble and fall, it's no one else's fault but yours. If you crash and tumble, it's your mistake. If you didn't spend your time well, how is it the fault of others?

God damn it all but if you'll fall again, I'd probably want to help guide you'll back but I'm going to step back this time. We all will step back. You know why?

Because you'll have to suck it up.

Essay Madness

*sobs*

Final Essay.

12 hours to complete it.

Here's the title:
(actually I can't post the title because I'll be submitting this essay to the NUS turnitin website which helps to compare the essay to all online sources to make sure that it is purely my work. I post up the title after submission. But let's just say that Finland, Germany and France are involved.)

*sobs again*

I honestly can't wait for tomorrow to come for it would mean I'll be rid of writing bloody essays for atleast four more weeks till my exams begin.

Speaking of which, my bro, Sameer, KC, Idham and Iqmall. Don't worry too much about what you can not do and focus on what you can.

They say good things happen to those who have good thoughts. Try testing that theory out. There may be a certain part of a subject that you're worried about and feel as though you may not be able to score but screw that. There's still 95% of the paper left to fret over.

So Do your Best guys and just apply whatever you've learnt.

Gambling

But I gave like a whoop of joy XD Ah it was glorious. I do have one last essay due for this term and it is due on Monday but that's another agony for Sunday.

Right now, I'm contend with being so bloody happy : )

My Top Ten List for Deepavali!!!

First of all, HAPPY DEEPAVALI TO EVERYONE : )

And in 10th place is....


It was yesterday but hey one's never too late when it comes to festivities. So yesterday was well spent at my aunt's house in the morning after which, we proceeded on to my cousin's house where we ate, ate, ate, collected money, played with the kids, ate, gambled ; )

In 9th place...


Did I fail to mention that my sis and I were in sarees. : ) We stumbled, fell and tripped but turned out pretty okay ; )

In 8th Place...


My grandma came over as well and it was nice. We rarely talk but having her there, seeing us in sarees was pretty...nice :)

In 7th Place...


At my cousin's house, my sis and I played with our freakingly adorable nieces and nephews!!! Ah there are such munchkins and I adore each and everyone of them. Attired in the saree, I didn't even give a damn that the youngest spill drinks on me.

In 6th place...


The brilliant part this year was that for the first time in years, my mum came out with us on Deepavali day itself. Usually, the four of us, my sis and 2 bros, would go visit my aunt and cousin by ourselves while she entertained other guests at home. But she came with us this time and it was nice. Lol I need a new word...'nice' is being overused ; )

And now, we're down to the top 5 songs.

In 5th place...



Check out the official video and see if you can recognise the singer ; )

What was the best part of Deepavali yesterday, oddly enough it was the messages that I recieved. I know I didn't reply to any of it...but it gave me that warm fuzzy feeling to know that people still cared enought to message to others.

In 4th place..



After that, my bro, sis and I went over to Ganesh's house where we saw Prabs, Henry and a bunch of other people. Ganesh, you're mum's cooking is brilliant!!! Loved the prawns. And Prabs sorry for eating your ice cubes ; ) And Prabs, you looked nice. Henry, change. You're not even in SP!!! XD

In 3rd place...


So, now it's Sunday and my mum and aunt are in the kitchen cooking for our friends who will be arriving in less than 5 hours. I'm wondering why my mum hasn't screamed for me to get of the laptop yet actually. So, I'm going to rush and finish so I can help her clean whatever it is she wants me to clean.

In 2nd place...


My cousin has come over to stay overnight. It'll be fun to have him over. About 40 odd people are coming over to my house. They're a mix of all four of our friends... Mum's here... gotta run...

In 1st Place...
