If you looking for the right one ...

I met a stranger when I was home the last time,
He's not from my homeland, but somewhere very far ...

We sat for a coffee
Chatting away ... well, he was doing the talking and boasting his life away.
Interesting .... and *YAWN!

Talking about his life, family
Where he grew up, what he does
And how empty his friends life is without him, especially when there's a party going on
Of coz, HE claims he's a party starter
WHATEVER!

I couldn't wait for his drink to finish
I can feel my legs are ready to sprint off
Just waiting for the trigger on the gun shot to be pressed ...
And the loud shout of ready, get set and 'GO!'

The starting line of a race makes my heart beats in a million beats ...
Making me feel exhausted downright even before the start of it ... Ishh!
I remember those days ...
But still, my mind craves the finishing line before I begin my stride.

Of all the conversation he went on with.
One caught my attention.
"If you are looking for the right one, you will never find it!"
And I asked, how is tht?
Even if he or she was a physco, you would still want to think that they are the right one?!
Obviously, tht question was dodged away ...

It made me think, though ...
It made sense in a way.

I think, it takes two hands to clap.
I think it takes two person to want and need what they want from each other.
I think if both has the same intention and the same goal, then working together as a team and keeping the relationship going is an effort of two person who wants the same things in life.

And, What I meant in this is not having the same stuff or sharing the same colour or eating from the same bowl.
But, wanting want they want for themselves and for each other ...
That they are willing to compromise things together and work out a plan if both has different opinion in matters.
Even if there was a glitch, none of the party will call it quits but looking at it as a challenge to overcome individual difference and work it out.
And THAT! is one of the mix in building a form of a foundation to keep the building firm and strong.
(If you are an architect, you will know what i'm talking about)
That they both can assess one other by understanding each other as an individual and not as a whole.
Knowing their weakness and their strength, not to provoke or use it against them.
And able to share thoughts and talk things through without throwing things into one anothers' face ...
And above all, leaving the past in the past and working on the present for a better being for the future.

I think I'm talking about my ancestor ....
Hmmm ... sounds more like them than the current living being.
And where can I find these people ...
Do I see any hands in the air ...
Not here, I suppose.
