next-best solution

3 weeks ago i re-launched the PIP, dubbing the new improved version as SIP...

i sought to "start reading, carry-out a fitness regime, as well as attempt to improve the way of my thinking (something that the PIP has always been seeking to accomplish)."

the first two, albeit sometimes slow and infrequent, are nonetheless underway...
however, admittedly the third remains the most challenging task.

"also, not only does one's thinking need to be wise, but it should also show in one's behaviors and attitudes. i hope to be a nicer person in general, and to not fall to anger so easily - especially on the road or toward minor/trivial issues."

this caused me to think up a heap-load of ways that might help me attain a nicer guy status, and it was only during a recent dinner at home when a thought struck me.
there's no point constantly complaining about how hard the pig intestines are, is there? instead, like all other situations in life, we can only take what has been served to us, decide on the best alternative out, and go for that route. this is a method that i have seen my best friend apply all the time... and hopefully i can emulate it with considerably success soon.

it's a little hard to put it into words, but basically we just have to keep moving on. whenever troubles arise, no amount of lamenting or complaining is going to help the situation... decide on the next best course of action (for example, to rectify the situation) and go for it.

in a sense, this kinda' compliments the theory of fate pretty well.


in other news, this morning i brought the kookoo out to punggol waterway at 6am+ in the morning to catch the sunrise... apparently it's her first time seeing one haha so she's really happy, and i am too.
much thought was put into this plan, in order to thoughtfully acclimatize her body clock to the following six weeks of working... as well as the swee choon dim sum supper the night before, which she has been craving so much lately (oh those liu sha baos), so as to make the most out of her last weekday night of staying up late.
although it was insane for me to wake at 6am today as i slept at the same time the previous night, it was all worth it (o:>

when the lights go out
and we open our eyes
out there in the silence
i'll be gone, i'll be gone
let the sun fade out
and another one rise
climbing through tomorrow
i'll be gone, i'll be gone
