What if...

your future lays crystal clear in your hand?

you could see your path distinctly indicated for you?

you knew that this was dictated in the stars above you?

you hear the calling for you to steer away from your current path?

you discovered that this would not be permanent?

Would you walk away or resist and fight against your destiny?

Or so, the soothsayer says... now, to resist fate or to allow the seemingly inevitable to occur?

The temporal impermanence of life - such is the destiny.

Would you run away and hide?

or would you be stubborn and believe you still have a say?

I would stay on and fight it heads on.

Because at the end of the day,

until the seemingly inevitable happens,

I still have a chance.

And I am not going to give up.

Mulling,

Izzy

Be careful of what you wish for...

... in case you rub the genie's lamp the wrong way.

Ask, and you shall receive.

Answers, indeed, sought
yet questions abound.

A dead end, with no light in sight,
or a self-fulfilling prophecy, giving up without a fight?

The devil and the hangman
towards the mystic they tend

A heart spoked with arrows
split at the end with sorrows

The wheel of fortune
anticipates the winds of change
relishing before gone too soon
offering a fork in the road
the comfort zone or a toss of the load.

Devilish death of a wandering mind.

Enlightened,
Izzy

What will I be?

This is one of my favourite songs, and one of those that has been resonating in my head for quite some time. 

Que Sera Sera

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty, will I be rich
Here's what she said to me.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

When I was young, I fell in love
I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows, day after day
Here's what my sweetheart said.

Que Sera Sera,

Whatever will be, will be.

The future's not ours to see. 

Que Sera Sera, 

What will be, will be.

With the mounting pressure in my head to decide my career prospects, this song keeps me going. 

Not to leave everything to fate and just waiting for options to pop up, I take it that it will iron out.

In due time =)

The time of the year.

Scouting for jobs can be the most exhilarating time or the worst depressing time.
Exhilarating because you feel that you have so much lined up ahead for you but devastating when you realise you do not qualify for the jobs that you are eyeing for.
One life, live it.
That is the way I see it.
There are no definite full-stops for you to put an end to, and yet there are infinite choices ahead.
My dream job will be one that is endlessly challenging as I cannot sit still,
stimulating and allows me to travel alot.
I can only hope that I can achieve this crazy dream of mine of working in Europe one day.

On a brighter note, I am looking forward to graduating although it can be immensely intimidating for a small being like me in this infinite universe.
Sometimes, I really thirst for exploring this world, where maybe something beautiful ahead lies for me.
And I know I must fight for it.
The contemplative mood is hovering above me.

I truly wonder what is ahead for me.
