Buddhists believe in Cause & Effect.
What you did in your previous life will determine your destiny in the next.
If you were an evil man in your previous life, you have to pay for it by suffering in this life.
If you were a Samaritan in previous life, you will be rewarded maybe by being born in a good family & well liked by everyone in this life.
Personally, I think it is not justice.
Why do we have pay in this life for what we don't even have a clue on the evil deeds done during previous life?
Why don't we get rewarded on something we did good in this life?
So if my life is poor & miserable but I'm a Samaritan, I couldn't enjoy my reward & will remain poor & miserable in this life.
Doesn't make sense right?
It's like when you strike lottery but can only get the money when you die.
What's the point?!
I really wanna know what kind of sins did I committed in my previous life & have to atone for them now.

Yesterday was the 7th day of lunar 7th month.
The Weaving maid had finally met her Cowherd again after a long separation.

Ever wanted something so badly but knowing it's difficult or almost impossible?
I always think what's yours, is yours..
However for the first time, I have such a strong desire to fight for what I know it's not mine...
yet at this point of time I have no clue how to.
I also realised having strong desire doesn't mean you will have the same amount of courage to fight for it.

Met an old friend for dinner whom I didn't see for years.
My pure motive was just catching up but part of his motive is to make me accompany him for shopping.
I told him he had chose a wrong companion.
I'm not a good shopping companion.
Most importantly, I hardly shop with guys.
Know each other for 11 years, we mentioned this for more than once today.
But I feel that I do not know him enough.
People changed.
People's lifestyle become different too.
He has LV wallet, Armani watch, wear Zara Shirt, shop in Raoul, Pedro...
Me?
This Fashion.
I'm a member & they are having 50% sale....
I'm not a brand fanatic for those who know me.
Shopping with him is a very different experience compare with the girls.
I always thought guys' do not have much varieties for clothes, that's why many became transvestites.
I realised I was so wrong!
"If men liked shopping, they'd call it research." ~ Cynthia Nelms
Just came home after watching the movie "Orphan".
Except the good acting skills & the final twist, the rest was really not fantastic.
With the overused of tense music & false alarms, the movie was tormenting.
In that movie, I thought the distrust between the couple somehow triggered the tragedy.
When a couple lost the trust between them, everything seems like a lie or "just you over reacting".
Having a paranoid relationship normally will lead to pain & suffering only.
You can destroy trust overnight but it requires years to build it back.
“Trust is like a vase.. once it's broken, though you can fix it the vase will never be same again.”
Man & Woman
Alike yet different.
Two different species from two different planets
Learning to speak each other language.
Learning to live together in harmony.
The relationship between them is so fragile that it breaks easily if not handle with care.
