life is a paradox.

踏破铁鞋无觅处,得来全不费功夫。

The phrase can be translated literally into english, as

"After searching for so long that even your metal shoes are worn out, you can't seem to find it. Yet when it appears, it is unexpected and you didn't even try in the first place."

I'm sure many of you who might be reading this have this experience (including me, definitely), of trying so hard to find something/someone (usually someone for this case), to find only disappointment aplenty at the end of the day. It just sucks, when you tried to hard, yet to fail. (the way people tell you that you'll be able to get something if you try hard enough.)
And even if you seem to find that someone, you realise that you two couldn't exactly last. Well, I guess that falls under failure too.

Yet this phrase solves the whole issue, with a simple 4-letter word beginning with "F". Well, definitely not "fuck", but "fate". To seek someone so hard futile-ly, and to find the perfect one when you don't seek at all. Leave it to fate, for it is often said to let nature take its course. Never a guarantee, but why "force" it?


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONCLUSION(you might want to skip this): With that, I hope you guys understand that sometimes, life crashes so fuckin' hard down into our lifes, that everything (seems)* to go wrong, entirely haywire. Its like life's telling you, "You got punk'd!" But inevitably, life's gotta go on, with everything being wrong. Well, then chill from all the heat, and take things slow, take it as it is. Like this;-
.Missed your bus? Smile. You never know who you're going to meet on the next bus.
.Shop that you want to buy from is not open? Relax, you never know if there's going to be a discount on the next working day for that item.

Cause' you never know when life's gonna stop being such a bitch, and all would be fine. I know it might just seem so bullshity, like I'm just flappin' my lips at such irritating, f'ked up yet uncontrollable issues with solutions that seem to just spell "ignore-the-issue, and-be-happy-being-pissed-at".
Well, that is just so true, but I'm not just ignoring the issue, I'm past the stage of being pissed, I'm looking at the greener grass.
I'm not being happy at being pissed at, I don't any point being sad/angry, cause' I really don't see how it can help me getting past this stage.
Sometimes, you just got to let things pass, there's no point in being too caught up with things, that doesn't really matter at the end of the day.

Yeah?

*because most of the times, it really seems that everything is REALLY wrong!

(Author's note: I have totally no idea why I can't type chinese in here, but well, heck it. The above phrase, (credits to Mi Juan) was the correct version as what my mom said. Marvin, yeah. I don't know. I'll check the dictionary.)
