Conciousness Aroused

Great people's tempers are terrible, always
Having their own way, seldom checked,
Dangerous they shift from mood to mood.
How much better to have been accustomed
To live on equal terms with one's neighbors.
I would like to be safe and grow old in a
Humble way. What is moderate sounds best,
Also in practice is best for everyone.
Greatness brings no profit to people.
God indeed, when in anger, brings
Greater ruin to great men's houses.

Excerpt from Euripides' Medea

whatdya think of this one?
i was reading it and decided to do a little reflection of it on my life and i came out with stunning stuff.....
i feel that coming thus far in life, at times i have been a little too serious about stuff... not being 'fun'... not taking the light-side of stuff at times. At times, i have been a little self-centered, instead of beign selfless... have been a little mean instead of being kind, a little too manipulative instead of being submissive. and most of all, I also think that at times, i may have been wrong, i always liked the world to revolve around me, everythign to go my way!!! but how often does that happen?? i guess i may have been wrong at times to be at boiling point with ppl when i didn't get my way or when things were not going as i thought they should have... some ppl have had a bashful from me and i guessi owe them a big, big , humongous apology for it... i don't know why but i havent been able to get over it... even though some of these event go back 2 or 3 years...i am still able to remember vividly what happened when the other party may have forgiven anf forgotten it... i need to forgive myself i think, and come to terms that that is me... and change... i have been tryign to keepbusy in order to forget who i am and what my weaknesses are... i have been tryign to run away from it... but i was thinking? isn't it time to give up the chase and outrun this phase... and i think, the first thing that i have to do is to apologize to everyone whom i have hurt, and try during this Holy Week, with the grace of god, to turn over a new leaf, to be concious of my surroundings... and hopefully ppl out there in the world will give me a second chance at the race... to run it anew... to run the race of life!
