what being generosity
As I grew up listening to Malay songs from artist like 4u2c, Ella and those “dangdut” style like Pisau Cukur and etc, I had a limited exposure on the Chinese songs nor English songs until when I begin to listen to Michael Jackson’s You Are Not Alone. Thanks to my mom who brought back the Thriller Music Video for me to watch.
Jeff Chang - Generosity
Then when I got into my high school, I got myself a auto-reverse playback Walkman cassette player from Sony. I look around for the album to listen to. Then I bought Jacky Cheung’s “我等到花儿也谢了“ for my sister while I still looking for some Chinese songs to listen to. That’s when I begin to search for my sister’s collection and stumbled upon Jeff Chang’s Generosity (寬容). My sister actually took it of from my brother’s car back then.
Being a person whom is English educated and does not know how to read the Chinese, there was some English quote from the album itself. It stated that “Love Is Generosity”.
“True Love Does Not Mean Possion or Jealousy.”
“to love and to be loved are both blessedness. When you’re in love, remember to show more generosity to each other”
In response to that giving up, I can only say that it is not whether giving up or not. It is just the matter of time when we know that possession does not simply mean love. It should means knowing when to let go.
Yes, we might try and do all our means to sustain it but when it is time to let it go then we should let it go. We can rant or curse about the hurtful love that we are going through but in the end, we should let it go. It is hard to do. More easily said than being done.
After all, like I told the friend that she in the end will survive. Just live the life you always wanted. The right man will come.
Living in this world just allows us to experience the life, old, sick and death cycle. Experiencing the pain, emotional ride of our life. At least I can tell people I’ve signed the guestbook. Or collected the stamps at that particular stage of life.
