all at once.another thing to be feeling good about yesterday was that i controlled myself and got myself to think straight than let my emotions get the better of me.
what happened was that i found the cards i gave lying anywhere. few weeks ago, when i saw the goodie bag thing i gave for the wisdom tooth extraction, lying in the living room, i was like... hm, maybe what i did wasnt all that nice lah, that's why it's not all that "treasured".
but when i saw where the cards were, it was just disheartening. like not appreciated at all.
and with all the mess in the room, it sure seems like, you know one day, it'll just be one of those other things that collect dust there. and i can hear you go, it's somewhere in here, i cant find it though.
maybe it's cos when someone has got everything in life, they dont treasure the small things that much.
or maybe it's cos. argh, i dowana think along that line.
right then i felt like walking out of that door as invited.
i could have just made a deal out of it. but i didnt. i really cherish this and i decided i wont just blow it over something which i might see that it's just a small matter when i'm in a better state of mind. so i collected myself and left with a feigned cheery mood. and in the bus, i msged that i insisted there's no need to send me off cos that'll give you extra time for taking bus instead of wasting money on taxi-ing to timble later. and that it'll make me feel good if my cards are kept properly.
all that said in good words and i felt good after that too. like i was in control of my own feelings.
i just read something said by kate hudson the day before:
'i had such a great pregnancy. i was so happy the whole time. it was just heaven. i thought that the transition from being pregnant to having the baby was going to be so easy.here i come home with a little baby, and because i had c-section i was in bed for about a week and a half. and every fear that i spent my short life trying to get rid of, well, they just came back like a hundredfold. all of a sudden i was scared.mortality came up. i could never die, chris(her husband) couldnt die, he cant leave me, nobody can touch my child. i was crying everyday. it wasnt depression. i was just overwhelmed with so much love and intensity. you're never ready for it.then a week later that was all over. chris said we're going to go pick up food. i stumbled to the car; i was still in a lot of pain.i got out and looked around and went, oh yes, the world moves forward. life is still happening all around. come out of the bubble.then it just got better and better, every second and every day.'and it felt... i dunno. i guess i cant really compare relationship to pregnancy but i guess the meaning of everything is pretty much the same? i cant just get myself upset and stuck on a particular something in the relationship and forget that the world's still moving. and that there are so many other things in life i can be happy about than bing sour over that one thing.
but the thing is, it's just so awfully hard when in relationship. everything works differently cos the mind tells you one thing and the heart tells you another and you end up doing a totally different thing too.
*edit. i need to change. i've been thinking way too much and stressing everyone, especially myself, out. if it's that no good, i would have walked out already.
