Twilight, Starlight
The Crimson Red
Touches The Greyish Blue
Its Swirls Like A Candy Floss
With Ray Of Light Peering Through
The Seven Colours Slides Across
Irony Irony
Yet A Sweet Surprise
Hidden Stars Out In The Sky
Silently Waiting For The Time To Shine
With Just Precious Seconds Away To Twilight
Say Goodbye To the Ray Of Light
And You Realise How Time Has Pass You By
Its a Good Day to Shine
Kai
Its My Turn To Fly
Its My Turn To Soar
Its My Turn To Let All Know That My Dream Will Come True
Dont Run Away
Dont Let It Go Too Soon
Build All The Bridges I Burn
And When The Sky Is Falling
I know You Be There With Me
Step Back And Hear You're Calling
I'll Let My Dream Go Far And Wide
Dear Diary...

My Pursuit Of Happyness
Finally,
I managed to catch 'Pursuit of Happyness'.
Simply fabulous, inspiring and makes one reflect and compare their personal circumstances to Chris Gardner's. I mean, in Singapore, I believed that 99.5 % of Singaporean are better off than Chris.
His wife left him cos he cant really provide for the family, he got to sell his almost useless and redundant 'bone density' scanner machine (which a crack-up person in the movie said that its a 'time machine', ROFL). He love his son very much, insisiting that he will take care of his son rather than allowing his wife to take his son to another state. While he worked hard travelling to sell his lousy Bone density machine, he worked hard as an intern in a well-known Stock Broking Company, Dean Witter. He wasted no time drinking water while in the office, so as to save that few minutes not going to the gents. He knocked off punctually, so that him and his son, they can queued up as early as 5pm for a one-night stay at a free lodging Home-stay. And once, they didnt made it, and slept in the Railway's gents!
Many normal, small petty life circumstances caused him to miss his chance making it big, but he never gave up. He just kept presevering on, and eventually, he really did made it big! Becoming a multi-millonaire.
Our life, like a ship, is constantly hit by many storms, but who is the one who can conclude the ship-wreck, its the ship itself. We can make our own come-back as long as we repair the damage done to the ship after a storm. Afterall, each storm, how big can it really be, I mean, even the greatest storm in the world, as long as we build a ship that is bigger than the storm, we will conquer the storm yet again.
Chris Gardner's life pursuit for the happy-ness, is filled with many set-backs. But really, the movie remnded me, the pursuit of happy-ness, be it if its only for a short moment, its all worth it.
I'm on my pursuit for Happy-ness, are you?
