"i am free to be who i really am... no pretenses, no broken promises, no fear... just a life packed with hopelessness and unattainable dreams, 'cause im just livin' like i shld... my life..." everyone has hopes and dreams but dun they know that hope is the denial of reality and that dreams will forever be just dreams?

[210607] Leap of Faith
The first step's always the hardest to make isnt it? The leap of faith that takes all your available reserve of courage and even after that, a test of your inner strength, patience and nerves of steel while waiting for the reply.
I read a newspaper article last weekend on how a writer felt that handphones and technology were a bane to modern day romance, people spending more time in front of the computer chatting with prospective partners instead of going out on dates and having a face to face conversation, how anyone can conveniently call off a date with the dial of button and how instead of confessions of love face to face, many are ending up messaging their confessions of love instead. And all the while, the sender is fretting over how come the reply is taking ever so long and with each passing minute and second, becomes more and more convinced that the sender's made a fool of himself.
And yet, i cant help but empathize with the sender. I guess the clout and anonymity of being simply a face behind the computer screen hides and discards any social barrier and nervousness one might have as compared to being face to face with a member of the fairer species. I chatted my way into my first ever relationship and even now, im still puzzled at how 2 people could by mere chatting and nothing else get together. Perhaps, it was nothing more than a convnient time in which both parties needed someone to talk to and a relationship blossomed.
Whatever the reason, im still not sure and still kindda doubtful but yet, it's just asking someone out... for that, i need more than just plain courage. I think i need a drink as well... make that many drinks... damian the faint of heart... a real aries i am... hahaha... 200th post by the way... for now, i think i'll just keep my feet planted on the ground... FOR NOW...
