About the GrumpyQueen

A.K.A Gatekeeper

I love food, don't deprive me of it.

I'm not Princess, I'm Queen

I can be quite grumpy and when I am, I hide here, my dungeon for reflections, ramblings and ranting.

Whatever I write are opinions, and may not be the whole truth. Do not read it like the Gospel.

I hate as vehemently as I love
I already know I'm crazy, be my friend, it's safer

Different is not bad, just not the same as the rest

If you don't like me, it's probably mutual
But I'm nice, really :p

No one HAS to live with it.
No one HAS to like me.
Hence, I don't HAVE to like everyone.

Don't look at how someone treats his friends, look at how he treats the people he dislikes and those that dislike him. Frankly, if you ask me, I don't really care about how people look at me. I know that whatever I do, there would always be people who think I should have done otherwise.

I sometimes think, "life is short, why spend it pleasing those who would probably never like you?" Someone would shoot back, telling me that there is no such thing as "strangers" just friends you've not met. In other words, if we play our cards right, strangers can become best friends.

But then again, is it worth it? Why should I make one less enemy and one more friend? What if I die and God asks, "do you know what it's like to have an enemy?"

Christianity talks so much about loving our enemies. So therefore, I think we're meant to have enemies, otherwise how can we practise what we've been taught? Not making enemies is like running away from the problem, pretending it doesn't exist. Can we say that we'll live our lives and not make a single enemy? No.

So make all the enemies you want. If you dislike someone, try experiencing it fully. Immerse yourself fully in it, enjoy its every emotion. Because disliking someone is not wrong, it's how you feel about the person. Does it mean that the other person's a terrible thing? No, because the person you dislike is someone's friend, lover, child or parent. So while disliking someone, remember that that person is loved by many others.

So you can either continue disliking someone until your last breath or you can start loving him/her. Because disliking someone for the rest of your life is one experience, disliking then loving is another and loving someone at first sight is also another experience.

In other words, don't live everyday like yesterday. Don't expect everyone to be just like the last person you met and liked.
