THEORY OF BOUNCING BALLS

I got this from a HK drama serial,
"A bouncing ball; you throw it hard, it comes back to you hard."

"The ball will come back 2 times harder," I was told by Junwei.

Ouch.

I can't believe it didn't occur to me. "Science."

Isn't it true sometimes?
The more we want the issue/ person out, the harder it seems.
The issue with negative impact. The person significant enough to bring your emotions on a roller coaster ride.

And sometimes, the realisation hits us back real fast, real hard, real bad,
with the thoughts running back more vividly.

THE POWER OF AN INITIATIVE

Some sources delight me more than I ever expected.

Perhaps I've been expecting(and disappointed) too much and too often from a particular source that when another source, the antidote, does an unexpected, if I may say, 'strategy', the surprise seems greater, more powerful;
And the happiness lingers on and on, till it may become detrimental.

Or perhaps, it just depends on the source.

Anyway, the discovered 'strategy' thrills me.
Right, Naz dear?

I'M GONNA DO THE SILENT WAY

I hate to admit;
Recently whenever those treatments happen, I tend to daydream the impossible, reminsce, avoid/seek refuge, or simply switch to the self-denial mode.

Albeit my awareness of the problem manifestation. Indeed, it has; and had gone worse. The problem was long realised, but the courage to move on diminishes quickly.

Somehow, I suspect that I was just oblivious for that long while. The (wasted) efforts to implement improvements have tire me out totally. Checking the archives, I know PMS is actually not accountable.

I daydream about turning back time (one year ago would be good).
I daydream about earlier realisation of the pride issue, and the earlier change.
I can imagine more appreciation, less demeans.

I don't understand the treatment.. even after all these months.

I know what distraction is the best antidote.

SCARY METALS IN THE KNEE

A series of accidents due to Desmond's heck care attitude towards his reconstructed ACL led to a second reconstruction. This time, hemstring from his left knee has to be used to replace the torn-again-before-healing ACL in the right knee.

The metal staplers that held his right ACL together.



These were replaced by a set of screws.
Imagine how those look. Eeeeew.
