Listen!
John Dryden - Happy The Man
Happy the man, and happy he alone,
He who can call today his own:
He who, secure within, can say,
Tomorrow do thy worst, for I have lived today.
Be fair or foul or rain or shine
The joys I have possessed, in spite of fate, are mine.
Not Heaven itself upon the past has power,
But what has been, has been, and I have had my hour.
Haha. Realised my last two poems were on the darker side (but then again when were they ever on the brighter side...) so I decided to liven things up by posting this cUte poem.
Yep. Anyways had a fun time during ME lesson today at the amphitheatre. We were supposed to 'listen' to what our classmates were saying. All in a bid to make us learn to listen and to bond the class or something like that. And this is one of the times when I feel the whole class is really united. A lazy afternoon at the amphitheatre crapping around with your classmates... ME lessons sure are getting better. Haha. Then there's a valuable lesson to be learnt too (yea cheeeeeeeesy, but still =) ). Mr Koh's words did sum it all up; sometimes you just need to listen more... maybe there's a person in your life you should always have listened to, but didn't. Sigh. I just lurve philosophical musings like these. Especially on such a wonderful afternoon. (=
