Life Warranty Policy

Kinda wish everything in life goes in perfect order

You got a good mark, went to great school, graduated with super degree, landed a promising job, got to know a perfect soul mate, throw a glittery wedding ceremony, had a forever-ever-after marriage, had wonderful kids then adorable grandchildren, and then rest in peace surrounded by a loving family.

Yet, in the real world, it doesn't really goes that way...

I am talking about love, marriages, life and ofcz, wealth

People talks; esp in Chinese community, you are expected to answer when people ask about your personal life, incl your virginity. Well, I never had any uncles/aunties to ask the V question up to my face yet, but I know they talk about love, sex, pleasure and life a lot, not to forget asking the amount in your bank account. Wealth is the ultimate measurable indicator of one's happiness (well, at least for Chinese)

I always heard the comments like,

     "A... She attend a party and meet some boys, she'll have a boyfriend soon"

     "Ah.... she got that rich boyfriend, her life gonna be so good now"

     "Ahh... she got herself pregnant with that rich guy, he can't escape anymore, she'll be good now"

     "Ahhh... she marry a rich guy, her life gonna be so good now"

     "Ahhhhh... she gave birth a boy, all the family fortune is in her hands now"

so on, and on, and on

The truth is not always as perfect as it is. The life sequence is easily disturbed in any mili-second of its each stage. Some people having all the wedding plan burnt a step before walking down the aisle, some people have the wealth plan burnt on a line of a will, etc. etc. etc.

But I know people with a failing marriage; either they had few-days marriages or even years-and-years of marriages. Fairy-tale is a scam. Somehow, nothing can guarantee the happily-ever-after thingy.

In Chinese community, having babies can be "weapon-of-wealth-destruction" to drain the family fortune if the marriage ever failed. But it doesn't always goes that way...

X-factor may show up: an affair(s), you are adopted, you finally realized you have half-siblings, or the baby she had is never yours, the baby is dead,  or your wealth was declared illegal by government.

One day you are the crown-prince, the next day you maybe a poor commoner.

Realist, maybe I am.

I want someone/something that can assure me, that my life will be "picture" perfect

Those uncles and aunties said a "perfect man" can guarantee everything that I wished for…
When they said "perfect" means a person that consists of mixture a tycoon, a royal, a movie star, a scientist, an athlete, a politician, a Zen Master, (whatever good thing that cross their mind) - sounds like Iron Man, isn't it?

If only I can be absorbed in that hallucination, if only... But I know better, no one could ever ensure my happiness, my fulfilness. No one could.

The only certainty is that nothing in life is certain

Maybe... maybe... If I really found someone who can sweep my feet away, maybe, I would risk my happiness in the name of love. Maybe...

Maybe I'll let myself intoxicated in a cloud of love, rotted in ecstasy, vanished in delusion

Life is a lie

And I know better
