Waking up

I found verity on Nolan's Avenue
Down where the air is sweet as L.A. skies are blue
The water tried to break it down but it held through
It gave a little for the sake of staying true

We cut ties we tell lies
We hate change and we wanna claim where we feel
We take toes we rake yours
Yeah we dig holes and we're diggin right in your fears

We're waking up we're waking up
And right on time and right on time
We'll take these roads we'll break them up
And right on time and right on time

We got cars we write laws we won't pause
Don't you know we're always working this hard
We dont lose we might bruise
Yeah but we'll rain fire on ya till you're playing
All of your cards

We're waking up

2011

This year has by far been the biggest change for me, in many aspects of my life. I'm pausing here for a really long while because I don't really know where to start. ~ I've made many new friends but most thankfully, I've continued to maintain and be close to loved ones, the ones that really matter the most. With so many old friends embarking on new journeys and directions in their lives, it is really heartening to see that despite life's changes, some things, such as friendship, will not change, but will grow ever gold with time. This year, I had to learn to step out of my comfort zone even further, confront my fears, adapt to new changes, battle initial apprehensions, stay firm to beliefs despite temptations and make big decisions. To be honest, I can still remember being a great emotional mess ball in the early half of this year because there were so many things that were successfully bringing me down as a person, bringing out the worst in me. I lost the war to my inner demons and insecurities. However, despite a love lost, I got/get to experience the beauty of slow healing and lift my eyes to the Maker of the mountains I could not climb. The process of healing is really slow but I take heart in the beauty of it, as it lies in the fact that one day you will be taken for surprise --- when you suddenly realise it does not hurt as much anymore.

With all that said, I really wonder how 2012 will end up. One year ago, everything that I wanted then, has ended up differently now. It has always been me to dislike big changes, as I like constant stability in my life. However, I've embraced much change especially in the past 6 months ~ ideals, issues, and people I once held close to my heart have changed. Whether these changes are for better or worse, I don't really know either.

All I hope for myself is to continue working hard towards whatever goals I set for myself, and to persevere amidst the tough times. To always be appreciative of all the loved ones and keep them close to my heart. Lastly, to learn to let myself go and start believing again (soon), because " you can never protect yourself from sadness without also protecting yourself from happiness ".
