C'est Belle

from A Jolly Affair

A Foe

I make people mull at their misfortune, or wallow in self-pity. Because of me, they feel that they’d been treated fairly, or that they don’t deserve whatever administration given. Sometimes, I stir up your emotions, so that it will consume logic and mess up your mind. I make you see what you want to see and anyone who tries to hurt me will make you get bitter and angry. I will only get stronger as you grow older, because there’s more you stand to lose if I’m gone. Yet as you keep me by your side, you become increasingly disillusioned, thinking you are making progress when you are merely marching on the same spot.

Who am I?

The name is Pride.

Hello! hope you’re not too shocked to see me around here. :p
Kinda like this “pride” thing that you’ve written.

Realised that you seem to have a great interest in photography too. Just wondering, are they taken by the digital camera or a conventional one? I kinda liked the hues of the pictures.
Just a comment, those fishheads looks really nasty! I can almost smell them from here. haha

Anyways, here’s wishing you a Harppi Lunar New Year in advance. gongxi facai!

Hi Joanne,

I’m really impressed by your depth of thought and grasp of the English language! You don’t use difficult words yet the ideas you put across are deep and stirs one’s thinking. I think that’s what makes a great writer. Your stories are powerful too and often reflects realities in life we don’t usually think about as we take them for granted.

Keep it up!! I really hope to read more of your writing. :)
