When Stars Align

Just less than a week ago on 2/3/23 there was a phenomenon in the sky where Jupiter, Moon and Venus were in conjunction. It was also the birthday of a person I used to know, a person who have hurt me in the past but it doesn't matter anymore because it is in the past. I did not associate this date to that particular person anymore but somehow this date brought me a new found sadness. After reading more into horoscopes I made a discovery and it is rather ironic. 


People often say for things to work, you need the stars to be aligned as it is a symbol of luck or auspiciousness. Well, the stars did align that night although it was cloudy and I couldn't see it but I believe it is in alignment because stargazers worldwide were sharing photos of the magical scene online. I found out that my ruling planet Moon was actually in conjunction with his ruling planet Jupiter. Yes, our ruling stars were aligned that night unfortunately we were not. 


It really puzzles me that my believes are being challenged lately. Today's daily affirmation verse  was equally confusing -  "I will not let my thoughts control the way I feel". What does that suppose to mean? Right now if I choose to just feel I would be in a vortex of emotions. I am not sure if that is the best thing to do. I thought it was always mind over matter and not heart over matter.  If Tin Man was here right now, I would just give him my heart because he wanted a heart and as for me I don't think I need one. Besides although it is partially shattered, I think my heart is better than what wizard of Oz gave him - a silk and sawdust heart. 


Moral of the story, even when stars align, there are more powerful variables at play and things may not go the way we want it to be. As for daily affirmations, perhaps it is time to make my own affirmations to avoid over thinking. Oh, it's going to be tomorrow soon. Let's all have a good start!

Singapore

Continuation from yesterday’s post.  I finally ate the ice cream which is sandwiched between two wafers that I saw before and it was yummy because there’s like a huge block of ice cream and the wafer was thin. I chose peppermint chocolate and raspberry swirl. It was really fun to eat that on the helical bridge that totally looks like a DNA strand. I really love this region and it was also the same place where the fun run was held. So I got to go across the helical bridge twice. I am also very happy to finally seen the Merlion and since it was early in the morning during the fun run, the place was rather quiet and there were not many crowds. I wanted to properly run the fun run but I end up walking most of the time just enjoying the scene and talking to people since it was supposed to be a networking event. Delegates from 142 countries were there but I only manage to make friends from Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, Indonesia, Germany and New Zealand. It was quite hard to make ...

Out of the blue

 I remembered I used to cry a lot about Icy, and I was very confused with my own actions and emotions. During that period, I needed someone to talk to, and I did not want to talk to anyone who knew me in real life so I just spoke to someone random in-game. He joined the clan and I used to want people to be active and donate clan points and make a lot of reminders for members to play world boss. It was also during that time that I cleared out some members to make way for new ones. I may have recall bias as I had a lot of sadness in me back then and when I am sad I cannot recall things properly. I just remember the guy was from Brazil and when he heard of my story he was mad at me as he said I was unfaithful to my husband and he left the clan and deleted me as friend. I was rather shocked with his response and at that time I was also sad as I realize no one will ever be compassionate enough to understand my feelings.  Anyway that was more than 1 year plus ago. I think I stopped ...

忙或困是最好的解药

 我想人类是需要足够的睡眠, 过于操劳能让一个人所有的情绪给封闭起来,脑子里只想让自己“关机”。今天刚巧是个很忙的一天,忙得我真的没时间去思念任何人,也没时间胡思乱想。我记得我曾经说过为了避免自己难过,我若是隔天要离开情人/亲人,我刻意让自己睡眠不足。当我觉得我很困的时候,我就没机会伤心了,这个生活窍门我用了很多次也从未失败过。  我不能说我完全没有想他,因为今天工作所遇到的事我都很想和他分享。由于很忙这个想法只是瞬间经过我的大脑然后很快的又消失了。我可算是个认真的人,工作时我都不分心所以我真的想他了,要不然他是不会出现在我脑海里。其实我今天有和我老公说我想他了可是他没有回答我给他的简讯。1256,1637, 2327 这些是我发了简讯的时间可是一个答复都没有。想一想我真的是个孤单的人。虽然我很爱独处,但是我也喜欢有个和我三观一致的人和我分享生活。 我现在只希望今晚有机会睡觉因为昨晚我0200就醒来了。我没想他了,我只渴望睡觉。其实还有很多话想说但是我真的很困了。
