Life story #6: Let’s be real

An empty room.

An empty box.

An empty space.

An empty heart.

I’m F. F for Fuck.

You know I’m not sad nor angry. These emotions are overused.

Now I know that I’m not appropriate for school, but “Fuck” is the ultimate expressive word. It can be understood as a verb or noun, simultaneously displaying a range of emotions (that really fits the whole theme of “what’s going on”).

I give zero fucks – I give up.

I’m fucking done – I’ve hit rock bottom and cannot continue with whatever I’m doing anymore.

Shut the fuck up – Leave me alone and do not make assumptions

Does it fucking matter anymore – There is no meaning to any of this.

Yes, all these fucks really sum up the whole situation.

So, we were talking about how temptation was the answer to this unsolvable puzzle of our decision-making process; which this might have been mentioned in “The origin of sins” & “The everlasting cycle”. People repeat mistakes because of temptation and will soon improve their morale once they understand how unethical their doings are.

Why can’t the first mistake be the last? Why do we have temptation?

I’m just really fed up with these chains of lies. The truth is, nobody understands the human brain. No one can really decipher the meaning behind the problematic thing's humans do. It is never guarantee that after oneself has promise to not repeat their mistakes, it’ll stay that way. Some might keep their promises, some might blame it on temptation. So, it is basically a bundle of healing and hurting. AGAIN, AND AGAIN AND AGAIN X 100.

Therefore, can everyone just stop giving motivational speeches about “the pursuit of happiness” and “the change is real”?

It’s not going to happen.

Or at least don’t rely on it too much and have your hopes fallen apart.

If you expect that you’re going to cover 100% of what you expect to become, you’re wrong!

Life is unexpected. “And that’s what makes it exciting”. => BSHIT!

Because that is what makes it realistic.

Life is unexpected because good and mostly BAD things, can spook you in ways you can’t anticipate.

The only thing that’ll give you happiness is the act of picturing what you want to achieve.

It might but most likely will not happen. But imagination is everyone’s happy pill.

Here’s something to illustrate what I’m saying:

MONOLOGUE: A SENIOR WHO’S ABOUT TO GRADUATE (WRITTEN BY DAPHNE TRAN)

I guess it is ok to be confuse.

I wanted to become a writer, an editor for those big magazines like Vogue. Writing was my favorite thing to do.

But then I started to develop a new hobby. I started to binge watch a lot of good sitcoms and movie series. Hollywood really wowed me. So, I wanted to become a director. A film director. Or maybe an actor!

But here comes the real deal, Music. I started to fall in love with music after learning the philosophies about music. Understanding how much significance it can bring to someone’s life, or how it can change someone to become a better person, I started to wander myself in the realm of melodies. It embarked my journey as a performing arts student. I love to sing & dance. So, I wanted to be an artist.

… But I realize that it was way too out of my league. So I tried to be more realistic.

Now it’s not the best option, but I guess it is a good alternative. I want to become an entrepreneur/ influencer. I want to have a business platform that promotes self-love. I want to get creative. I want to combine art and business.

... But it’s a competitive field. EXTREMELY. I need connections and a lot of confidence to get myself a place.

The truth is, I am not good enough for whoever I’ve dreamed to become.

When people say things like, “put your dreams to actions and it'll come true”, they really must open their ignorant eyes to see what kind of society we’re living in.

Sacrifice, a lot of sacrifices made are the price to pay if you want to do what you love. Like those Korean artists. Having raw talent isn’t enough...

They must go under an extreme diet whilst continue to train so that they can perfect their vocals and dance skills.

After at least 3 years of THAT, MAYBE THEY CAN DEBUT.

This is reality, ... the rabbit from wonderland can’t save you.

I’m lost, confuse, and I know very little about myself. Who I am or will I be... faceless, hopeless, soulless.

Now you know what I mean. Hoping that we’d be stuck in a daydream but it’s just another living nightmare.

Confidence is silent. Insecurities are loud. But at least it’s real.

Life story #5: Confusion and Repitition

An Everlasting Cycle

Narrator:

It’s so late at night. I should probably go to bed. But then... it’ll be mark as late if I don’t submit it before 11:59 pm tonight. I mean, she did give us an extention for the assignment – one fucking week. What’s going on? You promised to change, to fulfill responsibilities and duties of a good student… why are you finding your way back to that filthy habit of yours? It costed you your integrity…. and relationships. There are no excuses to this nonsense. Stop procrastinating… please.

Although, you know, I’ve made a lot of progress. I stopped lying and accepted my reduction of marks when it comes to turning things in late. Ok, but… because of those late assignments, I’m getting a lot of average scores on my HOMEWORK column. Homework is worth 50 % of the whole grade! They’re easy grades… all I need is a little bit of effort and time to complete these assignments!

However, to be fair, I am spending 8 - 9 hours every single day at school (except the weekends). An hour long riding to school and an hour back too. I need to rest and have a brain break. You can’t expect me to do more work FROM SCHOOL at home? Did I not attain enough knowledge and education in class already? Do we need more practices at home when we’ve done multiple with the teacher? You know what, I’ve been better.. A LOT BETTER. I’m so tired right now. I had to stay until 6 pm today for extracirriculars. The traffic was crazy on my way home. It’s now 9 pm and I’ve only showered. I need to eat and catch up with Netflix’s newest series, Riverdale. You know what, it’s just an outline. I can copy it from the internet. Students upload their old work all the time right?

Alright, I’m done. I’ve changed the font and color of the whole text. She wouldn’t be able to find out. Whatever, I’ve done my best. I’ll sleep after I finish this newest episode of Riverdale.

Even more

The narrator is E’s internal conflict, talking to itself. E ended up being suspended from school for 3 days. The punishment was more severe than its previous one. E questioned itself: But it’s just homework? Why go this far for a small homework grade?

Hi, I’m E from the future.

I’ve matured and disentangle the problematic chains of thoughts

You see, all religions have their own perception of how human nature shapes our choices. Confucianism believes that all human beings are born with an inherited good side. Legalism teaches that human nature is inherently evil and only a range of sanctions and heavy penalties can terminate the chaos.

I believe that a blend of these forces will complete the formula.

Temptation. The urge and desire of wanting to do something … unwise. The inevitable element that plays a role in how uncleared thoughts are put into action.

Life story #4 - I’m on the hunt of who I’ve not yet become

A new day, a new personality…

I’m D.

D for Decent, Decisive, Destiny, and Dauntless

Decent

We are greedy. We desire perfection, wealth, high stature, and all the power in the world. Yet, we refuse to put our wishes to action – paving ways to the mount of glory by shortcuts. I am awake from my delusions. After I commenced my sin, doubted humanity, and finally reflected myself, I’ve reached self-actualization. I was too caught up with the prizes, allured to the competition with my competitive nature… that I’ve neglected the real value of living – nothing’s too important to trade off your well-being. Nothing is too important to trade one’s dignity for prejudice and greed. So as it for now, I will stop chasing. I will take a break from the race and return home. I will heal myself, heal the people that I’ve hurt, and retrieve my dignity. Blocking the noises out of my life and enjoy the gift of being ordinary.

This feeling:

I’ve missed my quiet, lovely nights; returning home from a long day of school but thank god it’s Friday. I’d clean my room then go to the grocery store to pick myself some midnight snacks. Then, call my friends and we’d meet up at a café to catch up. I’d end the day with Netflix and a hot cup of chai latte with Yankee candle pumpkin scent on the side of the bed. Nothing can make me happier.

1. Trophies

2. Top rankings at school

3. Praises from others

4. Having the world to acknowledge your talent

5. Being the prettiest

Those listed things are in no position to compete with the feeling above. I swore to never trade my state of well-being for anything. I only wish to be decent. I don’t need the titles; I don’t need to be #1. The only thing I desire is simplicity and a normal life.

Decisive is step #2 after Decent.

Like mentioned above, our wishes must be put in to action instead of remaining as wishes and not accomplishments. I’ve decided to pursue something for once in my life that is not self-serving. I thought too much, mourned too much => to an extent where time wasn’t being appreciated. Promises that I couldn’t keep and the plans that have failed to be done made me realize that instead of thinking too much, I’d just do it. I knew I picked the right path this time, I am decisive. To help with my rehabilitation, I began with small good deeds as baby steps.

It’s nothing much. I began the operation with curing my hatred toward my enemies with kindness. All I need was a little bit of patience and forgiveness. They might badmouth me but I’d compliment them. They might ignore me but I’d greet them. When they needed help, I’d offer it to them if it’s within my capability. It wasn’t long until they smiled back at me and talked to me. I fought fire with water.

To the people that I’ve hurt, I stopped explaining myself. Instead of giving them false hope, I give them the real “un”expectations. They might be anticipating my next thoughtless act and prepared themselves to be disappointed again… but I proved them wrong. I was honest. I didn’t point fingers to anyone but myself. I got less ambitious and am happy for those who surpassed me. I treated my mates with kindness => they thought I was amiable.

For once in my life, I was truly proud of my character – a good person I present to be.

Destiny …

Now things might get a little religious here but here’s a story. This sense of contentment that I am enjoying made me thought about heaven. I thought about the story of Muhammad being the messenger of God, destined to bring hope to a shattered world of despairing creatures. His kindness and justice gave people a reason to continue. I adore him and I wanted to follow his steps. I call it destiny.

I was destined to have my fatal flaw. However, the untold story continued where the hero raised from his/her downfall and defeated it. I enjoy being a good person! I enjoy accommodating, facilitating, healing (you name it)… I found myself. I knew what I want to become and achieve. This is when I get myself back to the competition.

Dauntless: The final resolution

I was happy; living life in the most casual way. But I felt useless. I knew I was capable of doing more. It wasn’t just a few friendly gestures that defined my destiny. I knew I could do better and help more lives. I know this might sound like an awkward motivational speech but the universe was calling my name.

If you think about it, we don’t have to necessarily make a derogatory impression on human’s desire and greed. We can be ambitious to help people. We can be passionate about loving ourselves; do what we love and improve our characters. Desires and greed are only considered ethical when we do it in the earnest way. No setbacks shall you see if you’re doing it right. I am dauntless. I fear no judgments and I will not let others disrupt my determination into getting myself back to the game. But this time, I come back fully equipped and mentally prepared. My small actions are keeping me on track to do better and bigger things.

As if for now, chapter 1 ends :)

From having doubts to committing sins … Reflecting and regretting … I see a white future!

Real actions are taking place and I am as happy as ever.

Here’s a little something to help y’all motivated like I am :)

Life Story #3 - “How will my reflection show, who I am inside”

Bónjour,

I’m C

C for Calm, Consolation, Clarity, and C'est la vie

Calm

Zen - embodies the sense of tranquility. Choose your soothing words and take a breath. I am C, C for calmness. I am the aftermath of A and B – the stage of actualization and reflection. Like tripping and falling – we sin, we make mistakes; the kind of human nature that can hardly be deciphered via words. As ironic as it may sound, we don’t intentionally trip nor fall – implying that if we were fully aware of the consequences that we’d have to face after committing a wrongdoing, we would *hands down* choose not to do it at the first place.

Picture this: When you look down at the surface of a placid lake, you can see a reflection of yourself. No matter how hard you try to splash the water/ to disrupt the stagnancy of the lake, the only thing that will happen is you > blurring the image of yourself – attempts of erasing the image though … is impossible. The lake can allude to the ugly past of yours - you may make excuses, point fingers, be bitter and unsatisfied with the prolonged grief and gloom occurring in your life – but you can’t erase the past. There are some things you should know:

a) There will be no future if the present and past are fused into one entity.

b) Time is more expensive than 24 karat gold, don’t waste it.

After the purple rain is a rainbow.

The storm has beaten you to the ground. As for now, all you want to do is to shower yourself under the purple rain. Infront of you are images of the past that might be as clear and bright as day; but to others, it has already faded to oblivion. It is your duty, to not get so caught up with the mistakes. Awake the warrior inside you and come to your senses again.

The real calm is you finding inner peace within yourself – whole new state of mind.

The real calm is your acceptance to a problem that cannot be changed, but can become better.

Calm is you looking at the surface of the lake - smile at it and walk away.

Calm is free from anxiety, anger, and distraught emotions – because you’ve understood why not to “intoxicate” yourself through these unnecessary (would be necessary for you to learn your lesson and not repeat your sin) negativity.

Consolation

A discerning health teacher once taught me this, “life is about being on a team, not singularity.” For us, topics discussed in health class weren’t just solely referred to “the reproductive system of male and female” or “how to use a condom”. We’ve additionally talked about our physical, social, mental, emotional, spiritual, and environmental health - which surprisingly are all connected to one another. The overarching purpose is to enhance our understanding about the methods of attaining and persisting a healthy lifestyle. In which one of the healthiest ways for all problems to be dealt with is a counselor (can be abstract like art, music,…); a form of consolation.

To reach the state of calmness as mentioned above, it is difficult to achieve it without the assistance from others. Enable to eradicate the nuisance, you’d have to confront and confess it with someone else. I have amazing teachers that are willing to help and a mother who always listens. The inspiring music I listen to from great artists, incredible stories on the news,.. anything at all can be your counselor (preferably a person, so you can receive real advices from them). Other than providing comfort, they might shed some light on this predicament and will help you overcome it. As soon as the warmth of your mentors melt your shield of ice, you will soon come to realize what you need to change and how you could improve your self-efficacy. Now A and B might have doubts about the world not being the model that it acclaims TO BE, but you should know that no one is profoundly immoral. Like you, others create their own mistakes; but they do have potential and goodness inside of them . Some might be more experienced than others because they’ve experienced the phase of calmness earlier. If you’re not too focused on spotting all their imperfections like the hypocrisy they present to be at times (admit it, it’s all of us) , with your permit, they can actually offer you a lot of good information and facilitate your process of “rehabilitation”.

It is not healthy for us if we can’t free ourselves from our own confinement (not lending trust nor open up our feelings to other people). Like when a balloon is filled with water, if you pump too much water in it and there are no holes for the water to escape – the balloon will pop. Like a walnut, you’d eventually crack if all these torments withhold inside you.

Clarity

When the lenses of your camera are covered with dirt, the pictures taken from that camera will look dusty and unpleasant. You wipe it away and then the pictures are brought to life. This is the clarity that you’ll receive once the dirt from your life is wiped away.

Enable to fully reflect and move on, you would first be in contact with Consolation. The mother to your ache.

Then, you’d step a step further and reach for Zen (lost in deep meditation and calmness).

After Zen, a sense of clearness embarks inside you. That everything made sense again. This is clarity. When everything is no longer blur; and as you look down to the surface of that lake again, you can see another reflection of yourself - the kind of image you’d be happy with and would not want to eliminate.

C'est la vie – A famous saying in French,

“That’s life”

Everything happens for reason, ends with a lesson, and we move on.

It is the way to think about life.

Life Story #2: The Origin of Sins

Hi,

I’m B

B for Best self - interest, B for Bargain, and B for the Bliss of ignorance

Best self-interest

Why do I sin. I sin because I’m selfish, my incentives are of pure self-serving purposes and nothing else. Yes, A told me that people sin because people around them sin; the circle of sinners are only ensued when one individual commences the wrongdoing. As for this “case study”, other sinners are not responsible for your own sin.

By my reckoning, Charles Darwin had missed out a piece of vital information when he investigated on the theory of evolution; enable to comprehend and design an analysis to this piece of information, one must rely on their own understandings about human behaviour.

Supposing when natural selection occurred, the posterity should somehow collect a few heritable characteristics from the ancestors. I call them “remnants”. Now I’m ambivalent to classifying/identifying these “remnants”; but hypothetically, I know that part of us human being shares a commonality to animals we evolved from. I believe that fast reflexes, with the inclusion of rapid thoughts and actions - are the product of these “remnants”. To be more specific, when things are not thoroughly put into consideration, it inevitably leads to thoughtless actions . These thoughtless actions are deciphered through the nature of irrational behavior. We should all be well informed that human beings evolve from chimpanzees, orangutans, gibbons (aka our ancestors). So any animal-like behavior, our savage nature, is obtained from our ancestors.

To further exemplify this, here’s an example: When a mate spotted its’ opposite gender, many hindrances would have to occur enable for it to proceed to reproduction - there will be competition. The conventional idea of two animals fighting for their future partner is often considered as their primary responses to these types of situation. Meaning it’d be the first thing they can think of and the first thing they’d do. Let us reflect this concept to human nature.

We tend to have different viewpoints, if and only if, the occasion has happened before and we’ve learned from it. The reason to why we’re not capable of looking at our own doings through different lenses is because everything we do primarily serves for our own self-interest. If we learn how to look at things from different perspectives, we would not sin. The only rationale to sinning is that it is beneficial for us and only us. So we do it again and again until we face consequences and learn from it.

To put an explanation behind this theory, take a look at the act of stealing. When people steal without getting caught, it becomes a habit. We steal because it’s the easiest way to getting what we want. Eventually, we are acknowledge that it is a wrongdoing; but as it becomes a habit, the guilt is no longer there. The only way to stop is if someone exposes the action and try to stop us; preferably the owner of the stolen object. The best way to learn is through criticism from others toward our actions. As we’re acknowledge how devastated the owner must’ve felt when they lost their possession, or that our parents must’ve been incredibly disappointed. We start to lose our credibility among the circle of people we associate with and eventually confront the punishments we face for the act of stealing.

However, through the course of making mistakes, we’d learn how to sympathize (because we understand that our doing can affect others heavily), reflect (looking into our own character, being ashamed of it, and understanding the consequences), and change (avoidance of this unacceptable behavior in the future). After the event, people will know when to not sin again.

Bargain

When are we allow to sin? What if “choice” was not an option? Below is a fictional story; unfolding the art of sacrifice.

Mike was a good man. He did a lot of charity work and was always looking out for his family. His brother, however, had been incarcerated by the court on a crime he did not commit. In just about 3 weeks, his brother will face his penalty of death through an electric chair. His brother was framed for a murder, and the mastermind behind this crime is an extremely powerful organization with access to high government positions of the country. Mike had no chance in overthrowing this organization by himself. He decided to purposely incriminate a crime so that he could enter the penitentiary and help his brother to escape. Through the course of breaking out of jail, he “invited” other convicts as well because the deed would become more practical if facilitated by other prisoners. But as soon as these escapees got out, the lives of many people out there were endangered. Many lives were too taken away. Through the course of breaking out, his brother’s attorney wanted to give it a shot by shedding light to his brother’s innocence to prevent Mike from risking his life. She was later assassinated by this organization because of sticking her nose into the wrong business. Now that it’s over, he blamed himself for everything that has happened. Is this situation acceptable enough for him to sin? Is there another way out of this? This problem is at its extreme level, whereas the interference of the authorities are futile.

Personally, I am indecisive to this dilemma, determining the righteousness of his act. The purpose of this story is to show how cruel the dark ages (inferring to the world we live in) can become. To put a name under the actions of Mike, I call it a second degree sinner. A first degree sinner would be the organization who killed and made false accusations to people in exchange of money and money only. Those who are second degree sinners may be acceptable at times if they had to pick between family and something else. It would not be negotiable if they had a choice yet mistaken that they are at the rock bottom level of the problem. Like how you’d tell yourself, if you don’t cheat in this test, you’ll lose your chance in getting into a big university and jeopardize your future. It’s not the same. It is your fault to begin with for not studying so you need to face the consequence. This is when they’re under the delusion of thinking that they’re second degree sinners but truth is – the whole purpose of the choice they’ve made still served for their best self-interest.

Bliss of ignorance

The delusion mentioned above is also known as ignorance. Ignorance can likewise be a sinful act. The content to this final statement should only briefly cover how sins and ignorance are related; since it’s the job of the upcoming blog to dissect the origin of ignorance (there are lot of things to discuss about ignorance/ it shall be unfold soon xoxo).

Back to discussion, why BLISS of ignorance? Well, we might think that it is such a relief when the problem of others are none of our concerns. It is their fault to begin with and they should deal with it on their own. Or maybe when we witness people suffocating from a predicament and that they are desperately in need for help - but it is such a BLISS, that it’s not us who’s suffocating! Now I’m getting informal here. Y’all should know that what you have right now - the clothes you wear, the food on your table, the books on your shelf .... EVERYTHING! It’s not like you wave a wand and everything you’ve ever needed magically appears. It is the money of your mother’s and father’s that provided you your needs. it is the housekeeper than polishes your house, your room. It is the people who’d take night shifts in the factory to produce your books, toys.... They’re willing to give which you’re willing to take - in which the equation would only balance if it’s vice versa!! Imagine half of the world’s population are nothing but a bunch of ignorant people - POVERTY, HUNGER, RACISM, DISCRIMINATION ARE FAR TO BEING RESOLVED!

Life story #1 The world’s biggest Irony : Theory of lies and illusions

Hi,

I’m A.

A for anonymous, A for ambitious, A for alone, and A for adaptable.

Number one: Why anonymous?

I live in a world where spoken words are just lies and only the actions that are real “words”. Funny isn’t it? Well, it’s true. While the stunning buildings are of strong foundations, I’m just a facade. My philosophies and “motivational” speeches might have moved many people - my mother and teachers being one of those victims - yet... I’m nothing else but a hypocrite. Deep inside my monstrous psyche, I knew that I could never pull it off like how I said I’m going to. Does this make me a monster?

“As long as you’re positive and motivated to do whatever you desire in life” “gloomy or not is how you look at it”

Do you believe in that?

Not me. Sometimes, we just have to face the fact that life is nothing but a matrix, a delusion, an ugly truth - the truth that nobody wants to listen to. That life is not fair, that you’d have to trade off so many things enable to achieve the state of contentment. We do not live in a world full of pure endearment, devotion, and fondness. Would being honest be the best solution? Would it be better off if I don’t say what others want to hear, instead tell them my sincere opinions about this world? This is obviously a rhetorical question; regarding to how most of us (even elders) has never really reached self-actualization until their deathbed greets.

What is anonymous here? My unquenchable feelings. That I can never fully express myself because many People may think I’m mentally disordered if I do so. Or that I’m selfish. Or that I’m a gloomy shadow trying to embody the nature of despair and spreading this sense of doubt and cynical to the whole world.

Because I’m anonymous, I don’t need the dismissal from anyone to raise acknowledgement for my controversy (the one that would go against optimists). Because life is like that, it’s never fair - and people would rather live in their web of lies than choosing reality.

Number two: This leads to Ambitious....

Now I’m not saying that life is absurdity. It’s not like people are given birth, just so they could manage some sort of distraction to kill time and face their inevitable death. NO! We do have goals, dreams and desires. Some might exceed expectations to fulfill their wishes, while others exceed their limitations (the boundaries that no one should cross) enable to get what they want. For those who exceed those boundaries, they fail in life. It doesn’t matter whether they get caught by the authorities or not .... deep down inside, they know they’ve failed. They’ve failed in conquering their own quest. I think you know what I mean so I’ll stop here.

This is the part, the part where it gets ugly.

People have different starting positions, given circumstances, and so on.

a) While one has to work extra hard just to get what they want and the others can just laugh on it and still get the same results.

b) Both can incriminate the same crime but only one has to take punishment for it.

c) Person A can teach Person B not to become a **** yet Person A still allows herself/himself to become that ****.

Yes, people can say whatever they want because they don’t think spoken words are some of the things they should also be responsible for. I’m one of them.

=> We all have our reasons and excuses to exceed these limitations. It’s just a matter of how one’s excuse is more rational and reasonable compared to the other.

Although, I have empathy for those people. They’re the loneliest people in the world ....

Number 3: Alone...

Yes, I am certain that these people are the loneliest people. They subconsciously cross the boundaries; for heaven sake can’t acknowledge this perilous addiction of theirs. WHY?

Because they’re not comfortable sharing thoughts and feelings to whom they could really trust. Because when they do, they listen to that same bs again about how life are just really blossoming flowers that people have not yet to discover. Because what they see everyday, when their circle of friends, family, classmates, co-workers, teachers, boss ..... continuously disappoint them - when no one is really exemplifying what they’re supposed to represent. Because this is reality.

I can go on and on to this multitude of reasons why these people are acting like this and that they’re the loneliest people in the world.

Don’t call them out...

Don’t make them feel like a monster...

They’re very pitiful.

Living with the shame they have to put up with for the rest of their life.

*Well of course there are zero tolerance to violence, or hurting/abusing others on the highest level of severity that an action can be outdone*

But people do take short cuts. People lie. People finesse. It’s the way of the world. As far as I’m concern, the word “protagonist” is not on my dictionary.

Number 4 -

Solution: Adaptation

This leads us to our conclusion. The truth is, you’d just have to suck it up and not envy those who “succeed” on their short pathways. You’d just have to suck it up, because people aren’t as sincere as you thought they were to be. You deal with it. You put in your best effort and sacrifice all the things necessary in the most earnest and genuine way to enjoy your success and experience that real state of contentment. You adapt to this world and present the best version of yourself....so the younger generation can look at your accomplishments and spread this real POSITIVITY to the rest of the world.
