Pink

A Lady Favourite Colour

Even since my Little Mermaid decided to cut off all sort of communications with me, I've decided to take up swimming at the local public swimming pool. I respect her decision, but I could never stop loving her. No matter what I've said, deep in my heart I wish she would call, sent SMS or email me again.

I really missed her wake-up call. Every morning I would seek my hand-phone, expecting there's a message for me. Yeah, I know but there's no harm in dreaming, isn't it? Maybe that's why I chose to love her in silence, for in silence I find no rejection.

I did talked it over with some friends about these recent problems I'm having. There was a passage in an emails from one of them that caught my eyes. It sums it all. She said,

"The past is for the dead, ArahMan7. You don't want to bring the dead back. You want to bury them and move on."

I wish it was that easy. Anyway, to occupied my times I started to exercise again. But I've stopped doing my usual exercises of stretching about a year after my marriage. Maybe I was getting lazy and by then I preferred looking at my precious PC rather than sweating my body.“Instead of thinking about what you're missing, try thinking about what you have that everyone else is missing.”

I was quite the athletic type during my school days. That was about 30 years ago. I played all the games, but I love to run the marathon. Below was an old photograph for the school Rugby's Team taken when I was fifteen years old. I bet you can't recognize me on the photo?



If any of my school-mate read this post or anybody who recognizes anyone in the picture, please get back to me by leaving a comment or two on this blog. I would really like to meet you guys again.

I was at the pool again this afternoon. The other day, I noticed one sweet lady who wore a pink swim-suit. It kinda reminded me of my Little Mermaid, who wore a blazing pink swim-suit - thus the name of this blog. Today, there were many swimmers around. I guess it must be because of the school holiday.

And the ladies mostly wore a pink swim-suit. Gee, why can't they choose another colour was beyond me? Why pink? But I'm glad nobody had a blazing pink swim-suit on.

Ever wondered why I chose swimming? Yeah, you're right! Right on the button!

See you when I see you.
