Questions U Ask Ven Turnin 25!!!

Its just you reading this now, so tell yourself the truth. Who or what determines your life? The phase you are going through right now, the friend you were sms-ing a while ago, the kind of marriage your parents have, the boss who always underpays you and specifically you, how about the weather, morals, standards, education, Elvis Presley, Jim Morrison, Kelly Clarkson, current balance on your prepaid card, and oh how about this…a lover, an ex-lover, ex-flames, unknown/known future partner…and this final one is going to take your breath away…do you determine your life? I’m talking about the you – ice-cream lover, spicy food lover, good cook, can’t cook, absolute romantic, arrogant, temperamental, funny, wannabe, confused, illiterate, scared shit, reserved, straight, curled, rebonded…and no this is not an endless list.

Who determines your life? What determines your life? When? On what basis? What kind of base make up do you use? How much of yourself do you let who see? What is with these questions? Do you answer all of them? Are you planning on answering all of them? Have you answered most? Is it the truth? Do I trust you telling me the right answers? Are your answers what I want them to be or are they what they are? Have I always taken you by face value? Or do I know things about you that you wished no one knew? Do you have any idea how much I have judged you? Am I delusional? “You will never know everything!!” you say…I say, “Oh really?” So now you have that look on your face…Is she for real? Does she know? Do I love you?

There’s always a blast from the past today, that throws us into the future…literally. I had promised myself that the romance topic was going to be a no-no in this blog. So guess what I’m still sticking by it. Unless of course this achy-breaky heart is healed, answered.

She told me she didn’t know what love was to her. She knew my answer was going to be ‘It is everything and nothing.’

I think the funniest word ever is ‘Choice’. I wanna know who made it sound so easy in history that we are bearing the brunt of it now! Post my 20-Questions spree, I am signing off. You answer them and lemme know. Bah!

oer..25.. I am due there soon too..:( .. all those questions have already flummoxed me.. sometimes the best questions are those left unanswered..or perhaps those questions are mere illusory faces of schizophrenic answers that mutate over time into mangled faceless monsters that seek to scare....
hey seen the movie-'Instinct'?hopkins/cuba gooding..
remember the lines:.
"You never had control, you only thought you had it! An illusion, tabibu juhu! And what do you control - for sure, huh? The volume on your stereo? The air conditioning in your car? What else? WHAT ELSE? ... Alright. Another chance. You were nervous. Too much presure. Try again. What have you lost? What did I take?"

btw loved the post..

questions you ask when turning 25!!! a passing phase... the missing link... turning 25 can be very confusing almost intimidating... cos there is nuthing that is clear and nuthin is at its face value and nuthing can be understood and u stand misundastood... but when you get across thinks get clearer, a horizon is seen and u would just wanna swim across, not really caring about the fog that you just left...
