500 Days Lesson#2: For the broken-hearted.

Broken. Bereft. Blue. Depressed. Desolate. Lonely. Lost. Miserable. Dejected. Forlorn. Me.

Perharps broken-heartedness is one of the overrated human emotions ever. More often, people tend to nurse this feeling more than anything else. Nursing it involves drinking, forcing self to get some sleep but ending up awake to get more drink, write dark/poetic/sad lines, miss or fail to work properly and I almost forgot: cry and cry and cry.

One of the heart-breaking scenes from the movie was when Tom went to Summer's party. He was more or less thinking that him being invited in her party might be a start of another chapter with her. Little did he know that the party was for Summer's engagement with another guy.

Yes that's it.

If I could sum-up all the cause of hurt, pain and hatred in one word it's just...EXPECTATION.

Of course there's nothing remotely wrong with expecting. Come to think about it, expecting is more inclined to be considered as something positive. It significe hope. It's more of an optimistic point of view. But more often than not as well, when these expectations won't align with reality that's when all these feeling of grief comes in. And sometimes, a person gets so use with sadness that it's hard for him/her to feel happy again.

There are things that we really need to be use to but personally, I think sadness is not one of them.

Often times, we are claiming that we can't live with out that person but the truth is we are living it everyday. Broken heartedness then is something we all experience. Some are experiencing it now, others had experienced it but for those who haven't encountered yet, better be prepared cause it'll come knocking your doors someday. There are really times were in we want to tell that person, "please say your mine and I'm yours". Oh boy, Oh boy. But that's the whole idea, "we want to tell", not "we told". When we are in the state of broken-heartedness, we often times felt that it's like the end of the world. Well, for other people they would tell you that it's something that will just pass but if you are that brokenhearted person, it's true to you.

But another truth is, it'll really pass. Easier said than done but the thing here is that, it can be done.

So for all broken-hearted people out there...call me, let's drink to that.XD

it is nice to see you've been busy writing and posting again. between you and me, its nice to know there's someone who's inspired.

seriously, i checked the blogs more to read yours than mine. not that there's anything to read in mine. there are a lot of things i want to write about. just cant find the will to do so.

i feel like everything that's been happening these past two weeks is all a big joke. but im not laughing.

i'd like to have that drink with you. maybe we can gather enough brokenhearted friends to drink with. im just scared that at the middle of it when i'm really, really drunk i'd burst out crying.

a grown up man crying, now that ought to be funny.

hi there.^_^ this flick is just so good it's making me want to write more about it. You should watch it. I think it will even help you.^_^

And I don't think there's anything wrong with a grown-up man crying. Boys don't cry. Yes that's true cause only real men do.^_^
