Truth is Crap

As much as people around you ask you for the truth, especially women, I, personally think they are crap.

I am a woman. I know but I think the demand for "truth" is really crap.

Tell me, honestly, have you ever told the REAL TRUTH without someone:

leaving the room
asking you to rephrase what you have just said, or
simply ignore what you were rambling about, or ultimately
after you have said (really the truth), they shut you off cause they just can't take it.

Let's be really honest.

People who want the truth are people who can't face the truth.
They think they can.
They think they bow down to the truth, but they are just living in the illusion of it.

They think the truth is all that is in this world, but seriously ... they just want to hear the truth according to their own sweet world.

Ultimately .... remember this quote ... "

Love people enough to tell them the truth and respect them enough to trust that they can handle it. - Iyanla Vanzant

More than Walls

Walls.
To some, they exist to create a sense of boundaries.
To some, they can be blank pieces of canvas to be filled with works of arts.

Just 15 years ago, I used to decorate my walls in my bedroom with super tacky posters. Alright, I know "15 years" is not "just" anymore! But it does feel like yesterday .. OK. I lied. It feels like donkey years ago. The years in between must have been too awesome that the past seems so far away.

I can't believe I used to have posters of artists from Hong Kong and Taiwan. Thinking about it now makes me cringe. Hmm ... what else did I have? After I came to Singapore, I think there were some movie posters. Then, my choices evolved to some motivational pieces. One of them stuck on the common fridge now. Oops. And now I downgraded to simply a post card. This one. (And it will be so obvious why it is there once you noticed whose words they belong to .....)


Now, wall art is not just limited to wall paper and posters anymore. They are not just to decorate but it can also use to make a statement such as the following one that I adore. Spotted at Salvador Dali - Mind of A Genius Exhibition at ArtScience Museum, Singapore. Imagine putting that on your front door! :p


I wonder if I have the choice, what will I do with my wall? I think I will get one super big painting that bamboozle the mind. Frida? Too depressive. Dali? Too exciting. Or better still, I will get a very big screen then when I feel like it, I will change what is being shown. (But that's so not "green". I may die from all the invisible emissions) -_-" Bleah ...

Enough of dreaming about walls. I wonder why there's even a need for a wall. No walls. Just a splendid view of something like this will be awesome. Merci.


How about you? What will you choose to be on your wall?
