Lesson of The Week : Lonesome vs Solitary

Under the Sun View Comments

When they asked you “Are You Lonesome Tonight?”, it actually means that the sadness in within. I can be solitary but not necessary lonesome. In fact, lonesome can be define as the state of sadness ones are. In other words, lonesome emphasizes a plaintive desire for companionship

On the other hand, solitary means the person is way apart. Part and being alone. Alone doesn’t mean lonesome. That is what we need to set things straight.

Friend – My Definition

Under the Sun View Comments

Often, I told myself that this is the way I should look at. Being a friend….
“A friend who walks in when everyone walks out”

Just like the story of K.C Jones, the Celtics coach.

After every loss, or whenever somebody had taken a bad shot at the end of the game, he’d be the first one to walk over, pat the guy on the back and say, “Don’t worry, we’ll get ‘em next time.” But he’d never come up to you after you’d do something great. So, I asked him about it one night, and he said, “Kevin, after you’ve made the winning basket, you’ve got 15,000 people cheering for you, TV stations come at you, and everybody giving you high-fives. You don’t need me then. When you need a real friend is when you feel that nobody likes you.”

This is so profound….

The Price to Pay

Under the Sun View Comments

The year is 2057, 5 scores from the years before. The vast advancement of the technology, with the introduction of the micro computing. A hybrid of the nano technology on electron and mechanical. The world had then become a smaller place. All living in a virtual society. In fact, the virtual village has been costing million of money involved. The last heard was the Giggle had become the single solution corporation. Covering all sort of chain of supplies.

In this minor shape piece of land, a young chap in his 20s now working from home. He not only working as the consultant in the medical line. Providing advises and issuing the prescription online. Like his generation, he had himself a blog with a huge fan base. Millions of his fans tune to his blog every hour. It is sensational thing of the time. However, 2 years ago… he had lost everything. He was vanished from the cyberspace. No one knew what happened to him. Some says that he was conquered. Some say he was abducted by aliens.

Now that he is back. He blogged about his 2 year experience. The first post begins like this.

The night couldn’t be any darker in the days. I was in the midst of doing tubing (similar to old days of YouTube) when somehow the electricity kick off. The room was consumated by the darkness. It’s only pitch black. I barely could see anything. Not even my own hand. Suddenly, my window glass break and followed with the flashes of bright light. I was temporarily blinded as my pupil was wide open to see in the dark, the flashes of light doesn’t give an ample time for the changes.

It seems for the next 30 seconds, I am lost in my own room. Hearing footsteps climbing over the window pane, I was forced to ground. Taken by surprise, I was helpless. At that moment, I can only pray and I weep in fear for not knowing what happened. They are men in uniform. Vaguely, I remembered that there were some initial on their shirt…. Something with I,5,A.

By the time I know, counting the numbered days… the Earth had been circling the Sun twice. In these hard times, I barely could catch a glimpse of ray from the Sun……

And that was the story…
