These days I've been doing a lot of thinking. I guess u can say it's all because of my friend. Why do people want to post their blogs online? To let others know how unhappy u are? To let others know how much have u suffered? To let others know how confused u are? Well, I actually said these to my friends, even though my own dears and I are doing that.
Okay, I don't mean to hurt anybody's' feelings. But, sometimes, when we post about problems we're facing, about the all our sorrows , it's like we're trying to show to all our friends about how miserable our life are. It seems to me that we just want to attract attention from the others. The people who care for us will surely comfort us, giving us advices and all. Why must write out problems or express feelings in an exaggerating manner or getting ourselves more depressed than it actually is? Why write words like we cannot live without him or our heart had been torn to pieces in blog like one cannot go on with life? Yet they can still enjoy their life the next day itself. So, why are we overdoing it? Are we craving for attention? Or are we just making life more difficult?
Why do we want our friends to know how emotional we are? Why can't we just write on events that are memorable and joyful to us so that we can always keep those happy memories in mind? If we keep on writing on and on about our own pathetic life, sooner or later only problems will be piled into our heads and assuming that we are alone in this, thinking life is just a pain. Why not change our perspectives on life? Instead of complaining, we should always count our blessings.
But then again, some may have different point of view on this. They might feel that we should not keep the pain within ourselves. One must learn to let loose of their problems instead of keeping things away from people. In that case, it will not be a necessity for us to plant a fake smile and a fake laugh to our friends when our heart is actually not in it.
So, which opinion is better?
Here's something for those who needs it.
I posted it in my previous blog before though.

I posted it in my previous blog before though.
I have in my hand two boxes,
Which God gave me to hold,
He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black box,
And all your joys in the gold".
I heeded His words, and in the two boxes,
Both my joys and sorrows I stored,
But though the gold became heavier each day,
The black was as light as before.
With curiosity, I opened the black,
I wanted to find out why,
And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole,
Which my sorrows had fallen out by.
I showed the hole to God, and mused,
"I wonder where my sorrows could be!"
Hr smiled a gentle smile and said,
"My child they're all here with me.."
I asked God, why He gave me the boxes,
Why the gold and the black with the hole?
"My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings,
The black is for you to let go".
Which God gave me to hold,
He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black box,
And all your joys in the gold".
