robbed of peace

no wonder if your tresses turn to the health bandit

for if you were the brigand, hundreds of caravans could be raided

I liked that ^_^

do you know you [don't] love your mate? hum

once I asked my married friends about their lives.

they said they're happy and would be happier if they had better incomes.

I asked them about their wives, there was a consensus that they're in a great relationship and they loved their spouses.

then I asked the tricky, hypothetical question:

if you come back to the time when you're not married yet, would you still marry the same person you have married?

there was the second consensus: we would choose a different path of life and hence we might have different wives!

my thought?

obviously they did not love their wives also it was not the life they had in mind before getting married. and when they said they loved their wives, they just felt it's incumbent upon them to be in love with their mates. and I think they, just like other people, mistook love for responsibility.

moreover, they were not able to see that they did not love their mates which is not a big deal, but their inability to see and admit it, can turn into a real situation.

to be or not to be the pilot - 1

Are we the ones who steer the boat as we sail down the river of dreams?

or we're just passengers on that boat?

I'm wondering if there is any way that we can take control of our dreams.

surely there must a way, because sometimes we dream about things that we have extreme feelings for them.

in those cases, we are, to some extent, in control of our dreams! although unconsciously.

we have feelings for something and then we dream about it, right?

I like to have the ability to choose whether tonight I would be the captain or just a passenger ^_^
