142. Change

If you're tired of being a bystander, you just have to pick your moment and do something. Anything. It may not be that big a deal, but it's better than doing nothing. Perhaps it may seem insignificant, a little underwhelming too. Perhaps it may seem foolish and ill-conceived, even a tad naive. It may be all that and more. But by chance, it could prove to be meaningful to those you try to help. And that's all that matters.

For this new year let's do our bit to bring back a little colour into the grey. Damn straight.

Comments by 'the bystander' :
1.'He' knows that 'Joe' isn't male.
2.to the 'bystander', ZK is the love of 'his' life... no matter what happens
3.the 'bystander' actually had been 'bystanding' ZK for a very long time : -after class, at the campus cafes, when 'she' complained bout this person, that person.... the 'bystander' was there too... watching...except she never notice 'him' even they were sitting at the same table...
4. the 'bystander' seems like a 'bystander' coz 'he' wasn't sure ; 'he' wanted to see and say something to the love of his life... but will she stay and listen what 'he' has to say, or will she yell and scream? will she tell her to get lost like she did that day?
5. the 'bystander' doesn't want to be a bystander anymore...coz 'he' wish to meet her on her 35th birthday....
