Which foot gives the right start?
Hey everyone... It's been a while, a LONG while, so much has happened, happy, sad, good, bad, just about every single flavor in the whole existing emotional rainbow.
Then again while a lot happened, it's time to move on forward right? I'm not gonna go into details of the past, but of a recent event that has happened to me just a few minutes ago...
Has anyone experienced what I would describe as a bump into pure fortune? Perhaps I might have, but one wouldn't know unless it's serendipity (in case you don't know about this word, it's defined as "The gift of making delightful discoveries by pure accident"). And I do beleive it happens sometimes, we're just blind by being unfortunate most of the times, we don't give luck a chance. I mean, who would sit in front of his computer at 1 a.m. in the morning dwelling through the Internet when all of a sudden in one of your messenger systems (MSN or Yahoo in case) someone pops up, by accident or ID misspelling and starts off with you on a nice conversation, probably meant to someone else but fits just right into a dialog you would definitely have with someone, or feel to have with that someone that very moment?
How about being too lost in that misfortune that you don't easily realize that what's happening right there is the medicine to your cures for all the emotional sickness you've been whimpering about for days? I beleive that happens to us every single day of our lives; we don't exactly open our eyes to realize the whole scenario, but just fit the details we like about it, and discard the rest.
So the dialog went on, and it was fun, until she realized she had been talking to the wrong person all along (but to me felt right, get my point?). So she just apologized and closed everything off... BLANK... POOF... dissapeared. Why does that happen? How do make the next move after that? WHICH ONE is the right move anyways? I just went ahead and apologized back (through e-mail) to her for not letting her realize she had been talking to the wrong person since the very first minute.
I don't really expect a reply (though one would wish... why does fun has an end? The answer to this simple riddle is that if it didn't had an end, fun would just be FU... get it?), just being myself makes it all simple, and for the moment's worth I sure did take the whole buck out of its value.
Yet I wish I could just grab the whole buck, instead of just 5 cents, out of every single moment I'd live in my life... that would be interesting, cause then I wouldn't have to trip and fall over and over, I would just know exactly all the schematics to a good life. Grabbing the whole buck, getting your money's worth out of a good time is not that simple: You'd need to digest everything that happens through that moment.
So serendipity this... Did she reply an hour later? Yes she did.
Did I reply back? Gimme your best guess ;) (though by now the answer is simple isn´t it).
I'll share you the real secret of enjoying a good moment: NEVER generate any expectations over it, just let the moment HAPPEN by itself. If you expect, chances are you won't be getting what you've been asking for. Secondly, beware that a good moment has it's troubles either at the beginning or at the very end, while the ripe stuff, perfectly fitting for the moment, is in the middle, the edges are very important: CHOOSE always the right ending, with the right beginning.
And let life happen okay? If you don't, and you let life go by itself through time, chances are... serendipity will barely happen with you.
So, to that person who gave me a right start thought wrong, thank you tonight for letting me grab the whole buck out of our personal conversation! Maybe it all ends here, it all might go on, I don't know. We'll just wait.
I hope I did make the start with the right foot.
Check you all on the flipside!

Serendipity alright... It's strange how life manages to make you turn away or into someone, somewhere or something at that exact time. I think that even though you try to plan things up, it's just a waste of time... Contradictory? Yes. What I believe? Kind of. Why? Because it's only what life expects you to do... Not what life really is about.
Sometimes you can get to a point where you have no more to expect. It's time to do something... Don't you think? I believe that life puts you in certain situations, in which YOU decide if you act or not. I don't think that we're rulled by destiny (a lame excuse from a guy told to a very close friend instead of telling her that he was just plain scared), but I do believe that once destiny puts you in the spotlight, it's up to you to decide what to do.
Let's take your chat, for example. It's a perfectly valid one. You get this message ment for someone else. You chat with her, she realized that the chat wasn't meant for her...but you did wrote her and she did reply. See? After the destiny happened YOU had to make a move. A choice.
I have no more to say, more than if you have to make a move... Don't be scared. Go for it. This life's too short to be whining about somethings that we wish we did, and when we finally realized that the ball was in our court, it's too late.
See ya,

As I told you earlier, you really have NO idea how much sense your blog made to me…. Specially yesterday, which brings me right back to believing things really happen for a reason, at a certain moment in our lives, to show us something… or maybe just to prove a point (‘cause I can’t say it is faith… I’m too involved in life for it to be just faith). I really needed to prove that grabbing the whole buck and not just 5 cents can be worth it, and that “…the real secret of enjoying a good moment: NEVER generate any expectations over it, just let the moment HAPPEN by itself. If you expect, chances are you won't be getting what you've been asking for…” So, thanks really for finding the right words to express what I so desperately needed to say, and giving me a fun way to say it!
See ‘ya!
