when i look up to the sky... my mind ponders and ponders...
people always say,
sky is the limit... reach for the sky, if you fall at least there are clouds to fall onto.. what if the sky is clear? how can we take risks when there is nothing (no cloud) to save us?
i pondered. when i was in Brunei, i accepted every challenge i was given, look for any opportunities and chances for self-improvement. because when i look up... i could reach the sky... i feel secure... safe...
then, when i'm here in Perth, looking at the sky just frightens me, it was a clear sky... i was afraid, i want to run away and find closure.
then my mind pondered again. tried to interpret further what i just thought. when i see the clouds, i see my family and friends, the people who will back me up whenever i am in trouble, the people who willingly gave me a hand whenever i ask for help. who loves me unconditionally. so, when i see no clouds, my heart shrinks. somehow i feel weakened to the bones.. i couldn't walk with chin up and chest high...
...all these just by looking up to the sky... now, when you look up to the sky, tell me what do you see?...
