Deep Valleys. No Rain. Intention Weightage.

I have a friend who has not been having the best of time at work, and I have been doing my best to cheer him up.

It's a big task. But I'll take it. Because taking this task is better for me then to sit there and watch him handle it all by himself. Admittedly, there is nothing I can do to shield him, or push away the things that bother him. But the least I can do is to let him know that I am just a message away.

I just don't feel good when my friends are not in a terrific mood. Especially when they trust me and shared with me, it's just natural for me to stand up and say "Ok, I am in, what can I do?" or just performing my bestest act, be there to listen.

I was deceived by the thunder and lightning this evening. Haiz. Hai me cannot go jogging.

3rd time liao leh. Why am I so easily swayed?

Arghh.

...

As I was walking to the plaza for some money-changing business, a thought came on me.

I was pondering over the friend's thing, and I start to question myself.

Am I really being concern over the friend genuinely? Or am I the person,on the other hand, who needs the attention more? And finds it easy to get it from someone who is willing to give me the attention by allowing me into their world?

Am I doing something for a selfish reason, and masking it on pretext on helping another person?

It doesn't take me a long time to weigh on this. I believe there is an element of this hidden somewhere in my intention.

But isn't that how relationships with people are cultivated? You fill each other's needs, and in exchange you get the attention of the other party. There is a give, and there is a take.

Ok. Intention justified.
