Things Fall Apart...

Things fall apart, as they sometimes will. So you can see clearer what matters most to your heart.

Heyya, yes you!

Yes you, the one bending low trying to pick a small pink striped ear elly... 

You peeking into my random thoughts make me nervous and I wonder why. Am I not comfortable enough with you? Maybe... Would I mind you taking a cyber stroll through my blog? Surely not.

Well then, I concluded that it must be the risk of opening my heart and mind that brings about this anxiety. Like I've mentioned, this hasn't been the easiest route for me to take (although it happened easily and I take it as it is meant to be). And it's the only route I know that I can live true to. 

So go on, take a glimpse and chuckle. I'll learn to bare my soul and laugh along.

Young & Vibrant Hyehwa 혜화 In Seoul

All thanks to a friend who brought us to Hyehwa for a tasty traditional dinner that I came to know of vibrant area filled with university students.

You see, Hyehwa station located on Line 2 is situated near to Hyehwa University. And of course it's filled with life and energy.

I didn't have the chance to shop around as much as I wanted to. All I could do was to snap away while taking a stroll after dinner.

I was told that the there's a few theaters in the area. Perhaps, you can get a clear picture of what this little charming area is all about from these 2 blogs here and here.

I'll just let my pictures speak for themselves.

Strangely, a lot of fortune telling tents littered the streets. I would think that at this age, you'd think you can conquer the world and have no need of fortune telling to guide you through life.

I particularly love this building below with the huge glass doors. It adds such romance to a cool Srping night in Seoul. 

Makes me miss Seoul so....

I'm definitely heading back to get myself acquainted with this lovely place the next time I'm back in Seoul.

Hyehwa station is just 1 stop away from Dongdaemun station. Take Exit 2 and just soak up the energy as you step out! ;) 

The Only Way Is To Let Love Flow

Have you ever felt magnetically drawn to something that makes you fear?

It doesn't matter how many times you've love. It's different each time when we find ourselves in an unknown territory all over again.

Feeling all vulnerable and exposed if you chose to live free and be true.

Dancing on the Stage of My Life

Giving my heart and possibly my best to the special ones that have crossed my path.

Believing that life is just a series of dance that hopefully joins seamlessly from one act to the next.

That I need to dance it my way to call it my own.

Why is it so hard for some to understand this?

Love, Hope & More Importantly, Courage

It's such a turn off to me when someone approaches life with the lack of courage. 'Coz hiding behind reasons to act in a less than courageous manner simply means that you're taking the easy way out in life.

My dad used to place his hand on my forehead before I go to sleep and tell me to have 勇气. Back then, I found it lame. Now, I finally understood what he meant and the aspirations he has for me.

Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear. -Mark Twain

I want to fill my life with love, with hope and more importantly courage. The courage to live a life true to myself and the courage to grab life with both my hands and to simply live. The courage to say "yes" to life and to rise above life's never ending challenges.

I Wish For An All Consuming Love To Be Called Mine

I wish for an all consuming love to be called mine. One that is built on trust and open communication, and more importantly, honesty. 

I wish for such a love that grows from the meeting of minds. One that makes both feel immensely free yet totally consumed. I will dance to this love with passion and know a lifetime is just too short.

I wish for such a love to be my gift soon.
