Last note from Virginia Woolf to her husband

Dearest, I feel certain that I am going mad again. I feel we can't go through another of those terrible times. And I shan't recover this time. I begin to hear voices, and I can't concentrate. So I am doing what seems the best thing to do. You have given me the greatest possible happiness. You have been in every way all that anyone could be. I don't think two people could have been happier 'til this terrible disease came. I can't fight any longer. I know that I am spoiling your life, that without me you could work. And you will I know. You see I can't even write this properly. I can't read. What I want to say is I owe all the happiness of my life to you. You have been entirely patient with me and incredibly good. I want to say that—everybody knows it. If anybody could have saved me it would have been you. Everything has gone from me but the certainty of your goodness. I can't go on spoiling your life any longer. I don't think two people could have been happier than we have been.

She realizes she's not fit mentally and still write this, personally I find it beautiful.

Adil??

"Bolehlah, kau pandai, aku ni biasa-biasa je, mana nak dapat markah tinggi macam kau.."

I believe we all encountered this statement at least once in our lifetime right? Whether we are the one receiving it, the one saying it, or the one that listen to this statement being used by others. Honestly, this is one of the most blasphemous, preposterous, deceiving and negative comment ever spoken by human till now.

Why do I say that?

Well the thing is, if you are born without any deformities to the brain or any organs and so on, you are similar to many others. I do agree that there are some of us who were born with a "bonus" trait, be it in aspect of looks, athletics ability or IQ and EQ. But does it really matter? Really? Even if one is born with a fantastically great muscular strength, or highly developed thinking skills, will that be the determining factor for the rest of his/her life? Will they be superior from birth till the end? And the normal average born are destined to never reach a height like them? NO NO NO!! That is bu*****t!!

The part where the difference is made prominent is when you work hard and smart. A genius is born. But, a star, an ace, a great mind, a superb human being is created, trained, and molded. The difference is what do you believe.

Do you believe he/she is born a genius, and there's nothing you can do about it to reach such level?
Or, do you believe, that you aren't putting enough effort with the most optimum conduct to reach and further surpass such geniuses?

This post is not fair, and I'm not really in the mood to type more. It would be nice to tell the tale from the so called genius group, and from the so called average group.  I'll leave that to you people.

Think.

We all have something that we are good at until a point some might call us genius in it, maybe in studies, gaming, sports, technology, etc. And we all have a weakness, something we really sucks at. Relate them. Feel the flow when people are looking up to you at a point, and at another time, you feel ashamed, sad, or helpless in the things you suck at. Do you realize how beautiful it is?? Such arrangement, such feelings, felt by all of us, around this whole wide world. Even the fact that many of us are in awe of others abilities while overlooking their own is a beautiful phenomena to me. Okay, I'm starting to stray away from the main topic.

Well, that should be it. Till next time. See ya ;)
