Forward. Backwards and Staying Still

"Somehow I've become very cautious. When I put on a raincoat, I put on sunglasses too. Who knows when it will rain, or when it will turn out sunny?"

Chungking Express

I like this quote from the movie "Chungking Expres". I guess it sort of reflects my current state of mind. Looking back at the past year and all the things that happened around me, I realised that I've not moved forward at all. I didn't move backwards either.

I just stood still, in life.

Maybe its because of past experiences that made me cautious about people. I no longer go out or club cause I know I cant trust people, and myself, who are under the influence of alcohol. Instead, I choose to stay within a selective group of friends and family.

Its comforting.
Its safe.


Am i all alone in this universe?
There's no love on these streets.
I've given mine away to a world that didn't want it anyway.
