be a DO person, that is da voice of da street

First and foremost, thank you Ms N for sharing. I appreciate it that you call all the way from Melbourne (even though I ended up calling you back – cheaper lah). Your tears of pain send tremours to my guts, and your sobbing melts me all over. Again I’ll say, think about it this way, life without A could be much better isn’t? Just give yourself time. You have God, family, friends and special friends who love you very much. Turn to them for solace and you will find peace.

Which brings me to my second point. Being, there are people who say things and there are people who do things.

I feel that A was one such example from the first category. He was somebody who said things.

He promised to cook her dinner, only to call up and say he’s going out with his mates.
He promised to buy her flowers, only to call up and say that the 24 hr florist is closed.
He promised to take her out shopping, only to call up and say he’s busy.
He promised to drop by her place, only to call up and say he’s at the pub.
He promised to put her to bed, only to fall asleep first.

Which leads me to think. What is the point of A? What is the use of having another body to get yourself stressed about? As if studies isn’t enough? If you feel like you cannot do something, don’t promise it. Because if you do, you have to do it. Regardless whether it’s walking across the Sahara or going into a foreign land, you have to do it. The fact that you make the promise, shows commitment on your part. Well and good. But your inability to carry your OWN promise shows firstly, lack of strength in character, secondly, lack of integrity and most importantly, that you don’t care a shit about the other party. Is that not true? Therefore A, if you read this, well I hope you change. You are my brother after all so I don’t wish you burn in hell, but you DID hurt your girlfriend by showing an absolute lack of devotion. That’s pathetic I reckon.

Something who DOES things is someone who talks good sense and is able to fulfil what he speaks. He does not speak irresponsibly and ostentatiously, but rather is able to bridle his tongue. He speaks wisely and practically. Occasionally, if he makes lofty promises, he goes all out to keep them. If he promises his chick dinner, he WILL bring her out. If he promises flowers, he WILL get them by hook or by crook. Even if it means plucking ixoras and the like. Sincerity is the key. Love is the reason.

Tonight, Ms. N and Mr. A. I will pray for you both specifically. It is not easy when you end things with each other, because all of a sudden you are snap out of comfort zone.

Hmmm… this world can be a depressing place ain’t?
