Reserve for some pretty ladies. <br /><br />The secret to solving problem is probably changing your mindset and way of looking at things. How to change your mindset? By experience! <br /><br />You feel painful, you remember! you do not want to feel painful again, you change this time round. You grow wiser! Wisdom is probably more important than Intelligence! <br /><br />Otherwise a good story or book that struck you 一言点醒梦中人.<br />Or Austin power give his mojo to you? <br />Rolf Sueyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10723925075715114650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897513886211197509.post-6827768458475927162014-08-15T19:13:56.957+08:002014-08-15T19:13:56.957+08:00coconut,

The sadness of today, let you appreciate the joy of tomorrow, the "high" of today leave u with a sense of "loss" and clinging tomorrow. Enjoy the high and appreciate the loss. Become water that turn into ice and can be used as a container to collect more water, or just breeze through lakes and rivers. Go to the vapor and fall as water again. Just like day and night, different seasons and different areas cause the length of day and night to be different and the mood to be different. But it will just go through it again and again, the darkest hour before dawn is just the beginning to the night.<br />Self-delusion and verbal diarrhea triggered by SMOL.
