Happiness, it seems to me, consists of two things: first, in being where you belong, and second -- and best -- in comfortably going through everyday life, that is, having had a good night's sleep and not being hurt by new shoes.
-Theodor Fontane

the channel 8, 8pm show never fails to make me tear. it's funny, heartwarming, sad all rolled into one. and for that one hour, i feel really fortunate/lucky. my house is prim and proper (all thanks to my mum), we're all doing okay yada yada.

it's sickening how we'll only feel fortunate/lucky when we see some other pple who're like way worse off than us. it's like, making merry out of their misfortunes. i really really need to adjust my mindset and also gossip lesser. speaking of that, i wonder why (insert question). i cant seem to phrase it properly. oh well. the bottom line is, what goes around comes around. (look what happened to my poor complexion)

yesyes, i will try very very very hard to stop fretting over it and let nature take its course AND in the mean time, try to accumulate some good karma. hah
