Wait, for you

2009-01-04T01:16:00.000+08:00

I never felt nothing in the world like this before.
Now I'm missing you & I'm wishing that you would come back through my door.
Why did you have to go? You could have let me know.
So now I'm all alone, girl you could have stayed but you wouldnt give me a chance.
With you not around it's a little bit more then i can stand.
And all my tears, they keep running down my face.
Why did you turn away?
So why does your pride make you run and hide?
Are you that afraid of me?
But I know it's a lie what you keep inside.
This is not how you wanted to be.
So baby I will wait for you, cause I don''t know what else i can do.
Don't tell me I ran out of time, if it takes the rest of my life, baby, I will wait for you.
If you think I'm fine, it just aint true.
I really need you in my life. No matter what i have to do, I'll wait for you.
It's been a long time since you called me. You got me feeling crazy.
How can you walk away? Everything stays the same, I just can't do it baby.
What will it take to make you come back? Girl I told you what it is & it just ain't like that.
Why can't you look at me, you're still in love with me, don't leave me crying.
Baby why can't we just start over again, get it back to the way it was.
If you give me a chance I can love you right, but your telling me it wont be enough.

Dear........

Everybody need a little time away, I heard her say, from each other.
Even lovers need a holiday, far away from each other.
Hold me now. It's hard for me to say, I'm sorry.
I just want you to stay.

After all that we've been through, I will make it up to you, I promise you.
And after all that's been said and done, you're just a part of me I can't let go.

Couldn't stand to kept away, not for a day, from your body.
Wouldn't wanna be swept away, far away from the one that I love.

Hold me now. It's hard for me to say, I'm sorry.
I just want you to know.
Hold me now. I really wanna tell you I'm sorry.
I could never let you go.

Firstly, Happy birthday to dear's mummy =)

Time really flies. I look at my wallet and WOW, I've used it for many years and I can't remember how many years.
Today's another boring day without dear. Chatted with dear on the phone but she had to hang up because she needed to do work. STONED ON THE BED FOR THE WHOLE DAY T_T

Dear~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There something in the way you look at me. Its as if my hearts knows you're the missing piece.
You make me believe that there's nothing in this world I can't be. I never know what you see, but there's something in the way you look at me.

If I could freeze a moment in my mind, it'll be the second that you touch your lips to mine.
I'd like to stop the clock, make time stands still because, baby, this is jsut the way i always wanna feel.

I don't know how or why I feel different in your eyes, all I know is it happens every time.

20 June 2008

Woke up at 9:45am. Was supposed to meet dear. But it ended up that we both woke up late >,<'''
Went walking around Heartland Mall with dear.
Then we went to Kovan CC. Wanted to teach dear how to play pool, but the table was occupied.
Had lunch at the cafe there.
Nth much after that. At least i dont wanna remember most parts of it.

Dear, did you look at the sky tonight?
Those stars...like our future...glimmering...i hope its this way.
Even if i dont sleep, and feel tired...You give me the strength to carry on with life. When i know i'm waking up and leading life because..all de tiredness goes away. DEAR, THIS IS THE POWR OF LOVE. :X

19 June 2008

Woke up at 10:30hours.
Went to CCHY at 1200hours.
Had lunch with cadets and friends at 13:30hours.
Accompanied YongErn to repair his bike at about 15:00hours.
Went back to Yongern's house at about 16:00hours.
Played games with Yongern at 16:15hours.
Went home at 19:00hours.
Haish. Times flies. Days pass like flowing water. Looking back at the past, it's just like yesterday.

Dear,

This period of time is going to be tough on us. Both of us don't have confidence in ourselves, and we can't meet up as often. I will call u up whenever I'm free. Even if I'm not free for that whole day, Ii'll take out sometime just to hear your voice.

Those days before we were together...so dull...so lifeless...
Sleep, wake up, play computer games. Sleep, wake up, play computer games. I used to lead such a life, like it was a daily routine for a machine. I'm not a machine. I'm human. I have feelings too.

Things started to change after we were together. I wake up with a purpose in life - to make you smile and stay happy. I think of you everytime. Everything i do is for you. Getting a job to get you the things you want, and also to get you a new phone line. I can tell u this dear, my life revolves around you. You add colour to my life.

Dear, no matter how many times you've heard this, I still wanna say... I love you. Muacks

18 June 2008 xD

Nice day out. Went for job interview early morning... and YEAH! SUCCESS! yeehaa~
I can still remember the feeling of spending my own hard-earned money. What a great feeling!

Afterwhich I went to Bugis and looked around. Nothing interests me. =/

Dear was out with friends at The Cathay. And poor WeiXuan had to wait for her at Hougang Mall the whole afternoon. =)

Met up with dear at Evening. And GOSH! Her Dad wanted to go Pasar Malam.
And we did. Went round the pasar malam with no objectives or what-so-ever.
Dear's daddy got angry because of my presence and whoops, we are both dead. =D

Dear, I know we feel the same way. I love you, the same way you love me.
It has never been so comfortable with any girl, any girl but you. Cupid has been so good to me.
We shall not leave each other, ok? Ignroe that guy who's harassing you. If it continues, tell me, I'll get a new phone line for u.
Dear, I just wanna tell you, I need you.

16 June 2008

Went to watch 'The Incredible Hulk', and WOAH, thrilling, exciting. Certain parts of the movie kept me in suspense. Now, I shall not be a spoilspot and tell anyone the story before you watch it. The people who went to the movie were Yongern, Yujian. Hongtat, Xiangwei & Jiawen.
My...just one girl with 5 guys...just just imagine how she'd be bullied. =x

After the movie, we parted ways. Yongern, Hongtat & Yujian went home, whereas the three of us(Xiangwei, Jiawen & me), went around browsing the shops at AMK Hub. We went round & round & round & round before deciding to go Hougang Mall. We couldn't find a suitable gift for their mum at AMK Hub.

We went to the Pasar Malam outside Hougang Mall. Xiangwei had shark's fin soup while Jiwwen and i had a tasty burger. Afterwhich we went to carry on our search for the perfect gift...but to no avail. So, xiangwei had a very good suggestion - Play at TimeZone =.=
So he did. He had wanted to play HoTD4 with me, but the machine was occupied by a rich OL who kept dying and spammed credits. We got fed up and played TC4 instead. While Xiangwei was topping up the card value, Jiawen and I abandoned him and CARRIED ON LOOKING FOR THE GIFT. Poor us uh? =x

We went around but almost all the shops were closed. So we hanged around the rooftop playground and chatted for like 5mins before going back to find Xiangwei at TZ.

Time flies, and it was almost 11pm already. We went to get some drinks and afterwhich, we went home.

Dear, its the 2nd time it happened. The feeling gets stronger everytime. This feeling...I'm pretty sure its love. Let me hold your hands and face everything that may come our way. Let the love virus infest in me, I'm feeling great with it.

15 June 2008 (not 16 june 2008)

My Dear,

I can cut off contacts with everyone but you. You say you feel insecure with all the girls around me. I will stop contacting them, unless there's something important. I will do anything to make u feel secure, happy. Where there is love, there is pain. I will try my best to reduce this pain for you.

I am like a falling star who has finally found a place next to another in a lovely constellation, where we will sparkle in the heavens forever. If I know what love is, it is because of you. There is no remedy for love but to love more.

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, nor touched ... but are felt in the heart. My love for you...never dies.I love you, not only for what you are. But for what I am, when I am with you. With a love that shall not die, till the sun grows cold, and the stars grow old.

I will never leave you.

With love,
Xuan

Some of the guys asked me to go and play LAN games with them, but since I didn't go to the grading, why would I go to Kovan for just LAN games? XD

Listen to the Exhortation of the Dawn!
Look to this Day!
For it is Life, the very Life of Life.
In its brief course lie all the Verities and Realities of your Existence.
The Bliss of Growth,The Glory of Action,The Splendor of Beauty;
For Yesterday is but a Dream,And To-morrow is only a Vision;
But To-day well lived makes
Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness,
And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope.
Look well therefore to this Day!Such is the Salutation of the Dawn!

2007-09-26T21:35:00.000+08:00

When you have once seen the glow of happiness on the face of a beloved person, you know that a man can have no vocation but to awaken that light on the faces surrounding him; and you are torn by the thought of the unhappiness and night you cast, by the mere fact of living, in the hearts you encounter.

Why not let people differ about their answers to the great mysteries of the Universe? Let each seek one's own way to the highest, to one's own sense of supreme loyalty in life, one's ideal of life. Let each philosophy, each world-view bring forth its truth and beauty to a larger perspective, that people may grow in vision, stature and dedication.

The religions of humanity should be a unifying force, for all the great religions reveal a basic unity in ethics. Whether it be Judaism, Catholicism, Protestantism, Buddhism or Confucianism, all grow out of a sense of the sacredness of human life. This moral sensitivity to the sacredness of human personality -- the Commandments not to kill, not to hurt, not to put a stumbling block in the path of the blind, not to neglect the widow or the fatherless, not to exploit the servant or the worker -- all this can be found in the Bibles of humanity, in all the sacred books. All teach in substance: "Do unto others as you would that others should do unto you." There is, then, a basic unity among the great religions in the matter of ethics. True, there are religious philosophies which turn people away from the world, from the here and now, concentrating life-purposes on salvation for one's self or a mystic union with some supernatural reality. But most of the great religions agree on mercy, justice, love -- here on earth. And they agree that the great task is to move people from apathy, from an acceptance of the evils in life, to face the possibilities of the world, to make life sweet for one another instead of bitter. This is the unifying ethical task of all the religions -- yes, of all the philosophies of humankind. There is no need to force our own theological points of view upon one another or to insist that the moral life grows out of final, absolute authority.

There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.

Consider the following. We humans are social beings. We come into the world as the result of others' actions. We survive here in dependence on others. Whether we like it or not, there is hardly a moment of our lives when we do not benefit from others' activities. For this reason it is hardly surprising that most of our happiness arises in the context of our relationships with others.

Nor is it so remarkable that our greatest joy should come when we are motivated by concern for others. But that is not all. We find that not only do altruistic actions bring about happiness but they also lessen our experience of suffering. Here I am not suggesting that the individual whose actions are motivated by the wish to bring others' happiness necessarily meets with less misfortune than the one who does not. Sickness, old age, mishaps of one sort or another are the same for us all. But the sufferings which undermine our internal peace -- anxiety, doubt, disappointment -- these things are definitely less. In our concern for others, we worry less about ourselves. When we worry less about ourselves an experience of our own suffering is less intense.

What does this tell us? Firstly, because our every action has a universal dimension, a potential impact on others' happiness, ethics are necessary as a means to ensure that we do not harm others. Secondly, it tells us that genuine happiness consists in those spiritual qualities of love, compassion, patience, tolerance and forgiveness and so on. For it is these which provide both for our happiness and others' happiness.

The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.

2007-09-25T23:17:00.000+08:00

Love, like truth and beauty, is concrete. Love is not fundamentally a sweet feeling; not, at heart, a matter of sentiment, attachment, or being "drawn toward." Love is active, effective, a matter of making reciprocal and mutually beneficial relation with one's friends and enemies.

We only regard those unions as real examples of love and real marriages in which a fixed and unalterable decision has been taken. If men or women contemplate an escape, they do not collect all their powers for the task. In none of the serious and important tasks of life do we arrange such a "getaway." We cannot love and be limited.

Solidarity is not a matter of sentiment but a fact, cold and impassive as the granite foundations of a skyscraper. If the basic elements, identity of interest, clarity of vision, honesty of intent, and oneness of purpose, or any of these is lacking, all sentimental pleas for solidarity, and all other efforts to achieve it will be barren of results.

The relationship between commitment and doubt is by no means an antagonistic one. Commitment is healthiest when it is not without doubt but in spite of doubt.Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world's grief. Do justly, now. Love mercy, now. Walk humbly, now. You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it.

2007-09-24T23:37:00.000+08:00

The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew.

It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.

Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.

The colossal misunderstanding of our time is the assumption that insight will work with people who are unmotivated to change. Communication does not depend on syntax, or eloquence, or rhetoric, or articulation but on the emotional context in which the message is being heard. People can only hear you when they are moving toward you, and they are not likely to when your words are pursuing them. Even the choices words lose their power when they are used to overpower. Attitudes are the real figures of speech.

Change does not necessarily assure progress, but progress implacably requires change. Education is essential to change, for education creates both new wants and the ability to satisfy them.

Whosoever wishes to know about the world must learn about it in its particular details.Knowledge is not intelligence.In searching for the truth be ready for the unexpected.Change alone is unchanging.The same road goes both up and down.The beginning of a circle is also its end.Not I, but the world says it: all is one.And yet everything comes in season.

When you are physically active your body releases chemicals known as endorphins. These are your body's natural painkillers and stress reducers. They diminish anxiety and depression and produce a sense of well being known as the exercise "high."

Just one workout can release another cache of natural antidepressant chemicals from your body's medicine cabinet, such as dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine.

How we feel directly affects how we use our bodies and how we look. Feelings of distress or doubt can cause us to hunch our bodies in an effort at self-protection. As a result our spines are compressed and our breathing is shallow. We limit ourselves to small movements leading our muscles and joints to stiffen and weaken. It is no wonder that our spirits might sag and our sense of self-esteem drop through the floor.

Often just starting out on a new exercise program can boost your sense of self-worth. As you find yourself progressing, you'll also find your confidence growing. Choose physical activities that stretch and strengthen. They will help you to physically stand taller, feel better, and face the world with a positive outlook.

Yoga poses such as the Sun Breath, Mountain, and Warrior One, can help build confidence and self-esteem. They strengthen your legs, joints, and spine so that you can feel grounded and stable. The postures create good spinal alignment to help you stand tall and increase your range of movement. They open your chest for deep regular breathing that can calm your nerves and mind.

默默在你的身后守侯的我
多想看你不经意的笑容
或许我的心你不懂我(会)努力让你感动
在你眼中有多么笨拙的我
决不放弃追逐你的执着
只要你能再多些回应我
一个笑或点头全接受
能不能再靠近一点点
大声说出你所有感觉
别在紧紧关在只有自己的世界
温暖太阳为你迎接
能不能再靠近一点点
能不能再勇敢一点点
就算让我知道我永远只是单恋
我也会藏着感谢

haish..i keep telling myself all these..but wad does it really mean?..cold nites....withstanding de harsh coldness was hard...but abv it all...is de pain in the heart

The Grand essentials of happiness are: something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.

Love is patient, love is kind.It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.It is not rude, it is not self-seeking.It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.Love never fails

Have you ever been at sea in a dense fog, when it seemed as if a tangible white darkness shut you in and the great ship, tense and anxious, groped her way toward the shore with plummet and sounding-line, and you waited with beating heart for something to happen? I was like that ship before my education began, only I was without compass or sounding line, and no way of knowing how near the harbor was. "Light! Give me light!" was the wordless cry of my soul, and the light of love shone on me in that very hour.

Free love? As if love is anything but free! Man has bought brains, but all the millions in the world have failed to buy love. Man has subdued bodies, but all the power on earth has been unable to subdue love. Man has conquered whole nations, but all his armies could not conquer love. Man has chained and fettered the spirit, but he has been utterly helpless before love. High on a throne, with all the splendor and pomp his gold can command, man is yet poor and desolate, if love passes him by. And if it stays, the poorest hovel is radiant with warmth, with life and color. Thus love has the magic power to make of a beggar a king. Yes, love is free; it can dwell in no other atmosphere.

If I know what love is, it is because of you.
I hold it true, whate'er befall; I feel it, when I sorrow most; 'Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all.

我知道你身边有一个人

看着爱隔着一道玻璃门

每天都劝自己

能这样静静看你就够了

心情很乱能怎么办

爱情不是故意的

不想挑战另外一个人

又阻止不了心里狂奔的列车

不知不觉爱上了

可是能跟谁说呢

早晨醒来突然发现雨季开始了

不管值得不值得

学会爱的第一课

原来流到心里的泪苦苦的

这世界没有想象的单纯

我不懂什么时候开始的

也许是爱上你

说她的时候眼里的认真

2006-09-20T22:11:00.000+08:00

For there is one thing I can safely say: that those bound by love must obey each other if they are to keep company long. Love will not be constrained by mastery; when mastery comes, the God of love at once beats his wings, and farewell -- he is gone. Love is a thing as free as any spirit; women naturally desire liberty, and not to be constrained like slaves; and so do men, if I shall tell the truth.

See who is the most patient in love; he has the greatest advantage. Patience is surely a great virtue, for it vanquished, as these scholars say, things that rigor would never manage. One cannot scold or complain at every word. Learn to endure patiently, or else, as I live and breathe, you shall learn it whether you want or not. For certainly there is no one in the world who doesn't do or say something amiss. Anger, sickness, or planetary influences, wine, sorrow, or changing of disposition often causes one to do or speak amiss. One cannot be avenged for every wrong; according to the occasion, everyone who knows how, must use temperance. And therefore a wise man, in order to live in comfort, promises his lady forbearance, and she wisely gives her promise to him.

Wad Is Love???

2006-09-17T23:05:00.000+08:00

Love, like truth and beauty, is concrete. Love is not fundamentally a sweet feeling; not, at heart, a matter of sentiment, attachment, or being "drawn toward." Love is active, effective, a matter of making reciprocal and mutually beneficial relation with one's friends and enemies.

Love creates righteousness, or justice, here on earth. To make love is to make justice. As advocates and activists for justice know, loving involves struggle, resistance, risk. People working today on behalf of women, blacks, lesbians and gay men, the aging, the poor in this country and elsewhere know that making justice is not a warm, fuzzy experience. I think also that sexual lovers and good friends know that the most compelling relationships demand hard work, patience, and a willingness to endure tensions and anxiety in creating mutually empowering bonds.

For this reason loving involves commitment. We are not automatic lovers of self, others, world, or God. Love does not just happen. We are not love machines, puppets on the strings of a deity called "love." Love is a choice -- not simply, or necessarily, a rational choice, but rather a willingness to be present to others without pretense or guile. Love is a conversion to humanity -- a willingness to participate with others in the healing of a broken world and broken lives. Love is the choice to experience life as a member of the human family, a partner in the dance of life, rather than as an alien in the world or as a deity above the world, aloof and apart from human flesh.

$uffering$

2006-09-13T22:36:00.000+08:00

Suffering and joy teach us, if we allow them, how to make the leap of empathy, which transports us into the soul and heart of another person. ln those transparent moments we know other people's joys and sorrows, and we care about their concerns as if they were our own.

Most things break, including hearts. The lessons of life amount not to wisdom, but to scar tissue and callus.

TRUST

2006-09-12T22:05:00.000+08:00

One must be fond of people and trust them if one is not to make a mess of life.

To be trusted is a greater compliment than to be loved.

Never trust a husband too far, nor a bachelor too near.

Self-trust is the first secret of success.

There is one safeguard known generally to the wise, which is an advantage and security to all, but especially to democracies as against despots. What is it? Distrust.

SORROW

2006-09-10T23:01:00.000+08:00

When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving much advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a gentle and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.

I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge -- myth is more potent than history -- dreams are more powerful than facts -- hope always triumphs over experience -- laughter is the cure for grief -- love is stronger than death.

There is no pain so great as the memory of joy in present grief.

Parting is all we know of heaven and all we need of hell.

life

2006-09-09T19:56:00.001+08:00

Mishaps are like knives, that either serve us or cut us, as we grasp them by the blade or the handle.

It is very easy to forgive others their mistakes; it takes more grit and gumption to forgive them for having witnessed your own.

Freedom is not worth having if it does not connote freedom to err.

But there is suffering in life, and there are defeats. No one can avoid them. But it's better to lose some of the battles in the struggles for your dreams than to be defeated without ever knowing what you're fighting for.

2006-09-09T19:56:00.000+08:00

2006-09-06T23:34:00.000+08:00

how to make U noe IT?

fellin gulity?...pls don't....u aren't in the wrong......... u really should nt be guilty...dun 4get.....i willl be waitin......no matters......all i wan is to grow old with you......i hold it true, whate'er befall!!!!!!

Infantile love follows the principle: "I love because I am loved."

Mature love follows the principle: "I am loved because I love."

Immature love says: "I love you because I need you."

Mature love says: "I need you because I love you."

Magic in sufferings

2006-08-31T23:04:00.000+08:00

You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation...and that is called loving. Well, then, love your suffering. Do not resist it, do not flee from it. It is your aversion that hurts, nothing else.

REGRETS

2006-08-30T22:51:00.000+08:00

Make it a rule of life never to regret and never to look back. Regret is an appalling waste of energy; you can't build on it; it's only for wallowing in.

When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.

Fear not for the future, weep not for the past.

Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things we did not do that is inconsolable.

First Sight!!

2006-08-28T20:58:00.000+08:00

Love at first sight is easy to understand; it's when two people have been looking at each other for a lifetime that it becomes a miracle.

all things haf their seasons

2006-08-28T20:47:00.000+08:00

For everything there is a season,And a time for every matter under heaven:A time to be born, and a time to die;A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;A time to kill, and a time to heal;A time to break down, and a time to build up;A time to weep, and a time to laugh;A time to mourn, and a time to dance;A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;A time to seek, and a time to lose;A time to keep, and a time to throw away;A time to tear, and a time to sew;A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;A time to love, and a time to hate,A time for war, and a time for peace.

Indifference

2006-08-28T20:29:00.000+08:00

The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference.

Lurve ~ or leave?

2006-08-23T21:37:00.000+08:00

Developing feelings for someone is not a rare and difficult situation to find yourself in. If you have enough in common and you spend enough time together, romantic feelings will start to emerge. Of course there are those relationships where things just seem to click better than others. In order for that to happen though, both parties need to be on the same page, or at least try to be on the same page. In your situation, it seems like you are the only one who cares whether this relationship lasts or not. This is not a recipe for success. If he keeps pushing you away, you're not going to have many opportunities to grow in the relationship. When you get to a real problem, how is he going to handle that? Will he just push it away as well? It really doesn't matter what your friend says, you have to go by your own instincts here.

Low Self-Esteem

2006-08-21T21:03:00.000+08:00

It is perhaps best described as having a low opinion of oneself (either consciously or not), and/or feelings of being 'worthless'.
It can surface in thoughts and in feelings and will often appear to manifest physically - in body postures, actions and health.
All of this can result in:
-Feelings of 'being stuck'

One can hardly pick up a newspaper or magazine or watch TV without seeing or hearing some reference to Why all the sudden fuss and fascination? After all, stress has been around since Adam and Eve were evicted from the Garden of Eden. Is it because there is much more stress today? Is it because the nature of contemporary stress is somehow different and more dangerous? Or is it because scientific research has increasingly confirmed the crucial role stress can play in causing and aggravating different disorders and the diverse mechanisms of actions responsible for mediating its multitudinous effects?
The answer to all of these questions is a very resounding "YES!"

Stress is an unavoidable consequence of life. As Hans Selye (who coined the term as it is currently used) noted, "Without stress, there would be no life". However, just as distress can cause disease, it seems plausible that there are good stresses that promote wellness. Stress is not always necessarily harmful. Winning a race or election can be just stressful as losing, or more so, but may trigger very different biological responses. Increased stress results in increased productivity -- up to a point. However, this level differs for each of us. It's very much like the stress on a violin string. Not enough produces a dull, raspy sound. Too much tension makes a shrill, annoying noise or snaps the string. However, just the right degree can create a magnificent tone. Similarly, we all need to find the proper level of stress that allows us to perform optimally and make melodious music as we go through life.
