Bring Me To Life
.

Wake me up

I can't wake up

Save me

(Save me from the nothing i have become)

.

Sometime ago, i heard this song for the first time, simple messages of suffering expressed very well.

.

I hope the listeners of this song realise that Amy Lee and her group Evanescence are very successful and the success itself does not come from being lost, it comes from hardwork & self accountability.

.

and why can't Evanescence sing happy songs? :D

as it is intended to be...

Last week while I was on a tour in Oxford, it was the end of the day and almost the end of the tour, our tour leader decided to take us to the oldest Oxford souvenir shop - College Store, where they sell t-shirts and stuffs. This was because, someone asks for shopping earlier, our tour is very packed. The tour leader Katrina (with long red hair) seems to know the manager of the shop, they chatted a bit. I was walking around inside looking for the right type of sweater (must be a full front zip). There was none so I walked out and waited outside while the others browse.

The shop 2 doors down caught my attention, it was white, serene and has a good chi and vibes. I wonder why so many people don't see it. Its called innerspace. I walked in and find one of the biggest world spiritual organisation called Brahma Kumaris. http://www.bkwsu.org/

Daisy

A few days ago, my friend who is in her mid fifties told me she was going to go for her cataract operation and it will improve her vision. Haven't heard from her yet and I hope she is recovering well.

.

It reminds me of my grandmother whom i think had a cataract operation on one eye but lost the other due to it was too late. This is in the late 80s and we were poor and good medical help wasn't within reach. I feel so sorry for her as she walks around the neighbourhood with a false eye. Our neighbourhood is tolerant which i am very proud off. She is a beautiful woman and her name is Daisy, has gone through many hardships in her life ... too many indeed. She wasn't highly educated and didn't have a job or work, so she depends on others (brothers, relations) to support her.

.

I used to think about how her life got to where it is and I thought she was imprisoned by her own thoughts that she couldn't do better though I know that she was sad and cries often during her old age. I also used to think that it was because the lack of education that hindered her, which is probably a factor. I know she did the best she could to bring up the whole family.

.

I also vowed that my life will be different, learning from experiences of women before me, being a coward is never an option, thinking is a facilitation, actions makes it happens.
