“Does Life Have a Happy Ending?”

“The problem with happy endings is that they’re either not really happy, or not really endings, you know? In real life, some things get better and some things get worse. And then eventually you die.” – John Green

Happy endings might have fooled you to favor the terms. But we tend to forget that the ending of all of us is death which is not what we really want, ironically. So I don’t think we should wish for a happy ending of our life; however, we should wish for the best moment we are living in. It is inevitably true that life consists of both ups and downs, which sometimes things get better, and sometimes they get worse. The question is what we should be doing within these situations. 

I would say if good things happen, let’s celebrate and enjoy it. For example, you had applied for a job, and then you were called for an interview. After the interview, the company decided to offer you the position you’d applied for with a great salary, so for this amazing to have occurred, you should tell your family, friends and lovers, and throw a big party together. Sometimes, this moment might never return the second time in your life, who knows?

On the other hand, when you face obstacles in life which bring you down, you should accept and learn from your mistakes. Why do you have to welcome the problems? It’s because they have already existed in your life. You can’t go back in time in order to change what happened, can you? So you don’t have choice, but undertake them. In addition to this acceptance, you should carefully investigate the root causes of your mistakes and thoroughly learn from them, so that you can avoid their repetition in the future.

Unless you really want to die, I don’t think life has a happy ending because death is our ending, and it tears us apart from people whom we love and things that we own. Nobody wants to lose those parts of us even though we really know that we will one day. To me, there is no perfect life in the universe because life is full of countless perfect imperfections; thus, I have never thought that I will be able to possess a so-called perfect life or a happy ending of it. That’s why I always live my life for the moment.

“Late Night Thought”

It’s night time again, and I don’t feel that I have had enough of today.  I woke up at around 9am this morning, which was later than usual because last night I had been playing games until very late before I had gone to sleep. After I finished my shower, I repeated my routine, having breakfast, checking news on my Facebook and Instagram, and then reading stuff.

I have been kind of anxious because of the chaos formed by the epidemic of COVID-19, so reading is one of the techniques I have been trying doing to ease my mental health. Currently, I spend most of my free time on reading Maybe series, consisting of three novels, by Colleen Hoover. I honestly feel better when reading books these days because I tend to forget about what is really happening around me.

Also, due to the fact that my working schedule isn’t busy, I have time to restart my blogging, yet this time I put more focus on random journal writing. The fact that I have not been able to travel means I have got nothing new to write about too. It is one side effect of the outspread. Anyway, the journal section covers what is going my mind on my daily basic that inspires me, and I don’t really care about the topic or category. 

To be honest, I haven’t had any specific genre on my mind, but I clearly know that writing is one of my passions which I would like develop when I am older. My dream is to become one of well-known authors in the world,  which is too big for me. I know, yet I don’t care because I like to expect for the best, and I believe this ambition will guide me through any possible paths I  could take in the future to reach that point.

By the way, I think I got to go now because staying late again might get me sick tomorrow which is my working day. Having sickness is the last thing I want to see during this season because not being able to go away has stressed out a lot, especially my plan to continue my master degree. It has been put on halt, and it is highly likely that I will have to defer my study into next year intake because my university country’s border has still been closed and my VISA process remains silent at the embassy. 

Even though how much this pisses me off, I can’t do nothing, but just keep calm and wait. I hope everything will be back to normal as soon as possible, so I can resume all operations of my life goals. Moreover, I hope my family, my friends and I can get through within good health.

Take care you all, night!
