Fractured

its not until you have one yourself that you'll notice, they are all around.

walking into the library, a chinese guy with great sense of fashion (prob. a rich-son-of-a-bitch), with an arm cast sitting on the bench just beside the entrance of the library saw me with mine (cast), we both nodded (showing familiarity). walking down the street, a lady in layers of coat, had a cast on her left arm, splinting accross her right shoulder, walked pass. she pretended she didnt see me (the fact that she got the same thing as a short dark asian?). another guy, casually dressed, had a cast on his right leg. he was tense while trying to swing his cast accross a zebra crossing where a Nissan Fairlady was waiting (that was sad, but fun to watch). In the church, a guy with an orange arm cast (a cool cast colour) who was very excited about the preach kept raising his hand, shouting "awesome!" or "yeah!" (wondering if that hurt?)

reasons may vary accross people, chinese might be involved in a fight after getting reeeal drunk, women in coat might have slipped in the toilet, guy crossing street might be involve in an acciddent (riding a motorcycle), guy in church, bicycle accident? defending Christ? who knows.

as for me, I did a handstand and... wasnt a very heroic way of getting a fractured thumb (may sound small, but its major), certainly wasnt the way I imagine I would get my first fractured bone or experience my first operation (which by the way was awesome, its just like in the movies, well.. almost, cept there werent cute doctors and sexy nurses). my thumb was so fractured that the hospital actually had to call in a hand specialist from another clinic to do the operation on me. but this fractured (as well as those i mentioned) was easy, all it took was a good surgeon (or two), a good anaesthetist (definitely one), a generous insurance company, a firm cast, and 6 weeks of inconveniency (oh, tell me bout that...).

what about a fractured heart?

what will it take to cure this? time? will power? maturity (of coz, mentally)? or another fractured heart to share with?

Dont ask me, coz non of these worked, least not on me.

many people says fractured heart can be healed by time,time can make people to forget all the wounds in your heart,but i said,a fractured heart only can be healed by love--a new,true,relationship with your new lover.=)

yve vonn,

this guy actually broke your finger intentionally? put him in jail man... and what do you mean by "another who has got all d fractured pieces collected"?

cy,

love huh? its that simple huh? but this, unfortunately is not within my choices, its alienated me for too long, i dont understand it anymore. its like during first love, when you're tring to decide the defination of it. if this is the answer, then im in big trouble.
