Weekend just come and gone like that... Wish everyday feels like a weekend. In fact, there's no reason why everyday should not feel like a weekend. After all, why should the issues of life put me asunder? Why should I be below the circumstances? Despite the situations not being in my favour, do I not possess the power to rise above them? One of the toughest things in life is staying self-motivated. Guess that's what differentiates a leader from a follower. Everyone can do with a healthy dosage of motivation. But few can encourage and strengthen themselves out of the valleys... Realise that as and of myself, I can't go very far. Relying on my own strength is the perfect recipe for disaster. Yet I know of so many who are seemingly strong and able. It's a facade. Every mental health professional worth his or her salt knows that every person needs help one point or another in his or her life. Even Batman recognises that. Haha... He knows he can never be the hero he or people envision. Guess we're all searching for a hero. A person we can look up to. A person that's everything we're not. A person that is a beacon of hope in a world of chaos and senseless deeds and words.


Speaking of Batman, the Dark Knight was too 'dark' and a tad too long for my liking. If anything, the two-ferry scene was a good attempt at portraying the heroic spirit in humanity. It implies that every person is potentially a hero. A hero is the eyes of a loved one, a brother, a sister, a friend, a lover and even a stranger. I suppose even Hitler himself was a hero to someone (his lover perhaps), despite the heinous crimes he committed...

Back to weekends, yes everyday can be a weekend. Life need not be a drudgery. It should not be in the first place. Life is beautiful, and I endeavour to live life on higher grounds.
