Power of suggestion

The power of suggestion is a very powerful thing. It's often underestimated. MAJOR. I wonder why i've grown up all my life entertaining and being entertained by this invisible power and yet not realise the impact it had and has in my life. "In the wrong hands, it can become a very dangerous weapon." In younger days, it was something that was always 'fun'. No strings attached. People just teased and implied things that they thought would happen.

"Aiye...why he come look for you ah?"
"Did you know that she liked you since Form 1?"
"I think those two make a very good couple eh."

Little do we realise the gravity of what is suggested. Most of the time it ends up just a waste of time and brain activity...and if unfortunate, emotions get involved. The wrong kind. 99.9% of the time they are just rumours. Figments of imagination that have the potential to materialise. Ah, that's where the problems come in. Potential...

An angel decided to pay me a visit last night. She came at an unexpected time. It was half-past twelve. Funny, she must have had the keys to my room cos i dont remember the door opening or the light being switched on. She came in and said "I need a hug." It doesnt take much to feel loved. Truly loved. How i wish i could wipe all her tears away. To put a smile on her face. To tell her that everything was going to be alright. What is a little sacrifice as long as people around you can smile and be at peace? It's worth it, isnt it? Some may call it self-righteous. Not if it's from the heart. Can human sacrifice be totally free from strings? No udang di sebalik batu? It it does, how can it be called sacrifice?
