习惯就好
time: 11.06pm
there is a lizard in my room again, waking me up at 7.30am this morning with its loud mating noises. I know i should be freaking out in my usual manner, but for some strange reason, this morning, my only thought was " shut up can, i want to sleep". yes, there was this old fear that knocked, the one that told me to run as far as i could from the source of noise( which happened to be above me, fyi). Instead a new feeling bubbled up- the one that felt like giving up and just living with the fellow.
life is like this isnt it? As much as you dun like things, or even fear them, after facing the same thing time and time again, you just shut off, live with it and allow the unpleasantness to simply blend in with your life. Its like losing a place in hall and having to travel every day to school. It can be a real pain and you know it, but then eventually it just fits into the daily motion of the life and you get used to it. Thats how we are alot of times, we get used to things.
i have a fren whom i know goes through a lot and everytime i ask him how he is coping, he tells me "习惯就好". i feel kind of sad cause i dun think he really wants to be in the situation where he is now, but yet, he cant get out of it. Too many strings attached already. So, life sucks for him, but he learns to get the best out of it.
But somehow i think things for you and me may be different. If things can change for the better, why not give it a try? Things today will always be different from tomorrow. How much of it are we going to let into our lifes? Getting used to something may not necessarily be bad, it teaches us patience and tolerance. It provides a sense of comfort in our lives, a form of familiarity. But let us not lose ourselves into this familiarity, so much so that we forget how to try.
It takes guts to make that first step forward and even more so to force change. Im still learning how to do both.
well..i dun like the lizard in my room AT ALL. :( so i want it to go, and while i let it stay for now( cause i really cant find it), when i find a chance, i will chase it off. I feel less afraid of lizards now, but that doesnt mean i will happily live with one for the rest of my hall life.
and on a sidenote, i hope to get my first jimmy liao book some time! haha just must find the one with the nicest pictures and the nicest story. :)
