Share my mess: Of Tips for planting!

Here is what I accidentally read in some old motivational cards which I think greatly described what we do now affect what we get later.

Reaping What You Sow

If you plant honesty, you will reap trust
If you plant goodness, you will reap friends
If you plant humility, you will reap greatness
If you plant perseverance, you will reap victory
If you plant consideration, you will reap harmony
If you plant hard work, you will reap success
If you plant forgiveness, you will reap reconciliation
If you plant openness, you will reap intimacy
If you plant patience, you will reap improvements
If you plant faith, you will reap miracles
But...
If you plant dishonesty, you will reap distrust
If you plant selfishness, you will reap loneliness
If you plant pride, you will reap destruction
If you plant envy, you will reap trouble
If you plant laziness, you will reap stagnation
If you plant bitterness, you will reap isolation
If you plant greed, you will reap loss
If you plant gossip, you will reap enemies
If you plant worries, you will reap wrinkles
If you plant sin, you will reap guilt
So be careful what you plant now,
It will determine what you will reap tomorrow.

Conversation.

Hello September! Here I am, trying to converse to you about conversation.

I am surely sure that conversation is always a part of your life. To convey what you had in mind, to console, to give courage, to received consolation, to change people, to change yourself, to give chances, accepting chances or even to just crap it all out! And here I am too, conversing with you, to speak out what I had in my mind. 






As our generation advances, means of conversation also changes in a big way. From face to face to letters, to through telephone and now through a computerized screen and a set of keyboard. Especially with the creation of Short Messaging System (SMS) and various social networking chatting platform (eg. ICQ, MSN, Skype, Facebook chat and many more). Conversation are done by typing into your computer, send it out to your intended recipient, and wait for his/her reply, provided both of you are online. Here on, the word 'Messaging' includes activity of messaging and chatting online through computer or phone.


With The advancement of technology, the quality of conversation had gone down. It lacks depth of expression. Don't you tell me your emoticons with help you all the way. Your face is your best emotion expression! What is emoticons when compared with your own bloody face. Emoticons always had us fooled. You send out :) when you in fact are sad. You send out :D when you are in fact crying until you have no more tears to cry. You are saying 'I am alright' when in fact you are not. Well the worst thing is not you fooling each other, the worst thing is that you expect the other to find out that in fact you are sad, miserable and not alright through your expression of emoticons. Come on, you and I know best that emoticon is the short form for Emotional-Con. Or are you? There is only a small extent that messaging can help you. Especially when you are conversing in heart and soul. Person-to-person work best. Then only you all be able to smile together, laugh together, cry together, be sorrowful together, be merriment together and be joyful together. Without everybody being fooled.


Messaging is a waste of time. Why I say so? Have you every stuck in a predicament that you find it hard to explain a certain situation to people in person? It will be 10 times harder in messaging. Get this. The amount of time you use to type in one conversation will enable you to do 3 in person conversation (according to Shian's self-think fact, no citation). In the event that you say you be able to converse with 3 person at the same time, are you really conversing or just throwing out words to show u cared? Please save the other person who really cared the effort to wait for your reply ya. Wanna converse for real, know your limits and how much you can handle at once.  



Messaging leaves no trace (most of the time). We wasted our energy in typing and typing but it would not leave a permanent trace (unless you save it). Unlike a book or an article, messaging has the least impact factor. Because they are always deleted, or saved still in a threat form (which I think is laughable when you scroll back to all the conversation in messaging you had). At least you might be able to read this article over and over again. You will be able to read a book over and over again. Caused they are permanently there for you and they are free for you to extract out anything you wanted to, at any time. Real in-person conversation would certainly leave you no trace of what you converse. But they leave you with an experience. The scent, the sight, the sound, the ambiance ans the people. An experience you could not have every time staring at the same old boring computer screen while you messaging. In-person conversation is an experience craved in your mind well after the time of the conversation. An experience that I would go for anytime over messaging. 


Messaging get you stuck in some weird situation. Situation which you could solved or amend if you are there in person. Imagine that you succeeded in conjuring up courage to confess to the person that you like. You will be typing. 'I got something to tell you', 'That I am In love with you ever since the day I lay my eyes on you'. You click send. And then you either close your eyes and/or pray hard that a good reply will come. Constantly close and open your eyes, the sense of eagerness knowing is killing. How I know you may ask? I done it before! hahahhahahah! So after some time, NO REPLY. You will be thinking ans worrying, 'what if she had an accident?' or 'her computer suddenly went offline' or worst, 'That she do not like you at all'. At least you will know the answer straight if you talk to her in person. Whether she like you or not. Or at least you wouldn't be worry if she is hurt or not. It will definitely save you the effort to keep worrying. You definitely stack in even weirder situation which further strengthens the fact that in-person conversation is definitely better. So guys, please confess in person ya! It works wonders! A strong note also to guys who break up in messaging. Sorry to say that I despised you. It is already hurtful to break up, but in the stone cold expression lacking messaging? NO WAY MAN!


With so many bad points I given to messaging. That does not mean that I do not do messaging. I gonna give plus point that messaging are very convenient, they are fast and money saving. And the most I like about messaging is that it has no distance boundary! Hell Yeah to that!! 


I am conversing to you not to strictly get messaging out of your life, but to tell you to opt for in-person conversation once a while. Take the effort, take the time, spent the money to go for that in-person conversation. Let me tell you that, it work wonders. By the way people, saying 'I love you' in person work a million times better in-person conversation to messaging! some smooching action might followed too!!!! HELL YEAHHH TO THAT!!!!


And people, don't you forget that conversation through mouth of words only make up 20% (some figure I heard before, correct me if I am wrong. hahahahha) of your conversation! So people, why are you still typing?






Live well people


Stay tuned
