I wasn’t there, I wasn’t here before 2007. But enough has happened after that to make me realise how important it is for us fans to be humble.
Remember the shock when she missed out on the Best Actress’s nomination in 2007?
Remember the despair we had after she “rejected” The Defining Moment? When we no longer had the right to complain or even request, when all we could do was to wait, wait and pray?
And how about the heartache when the fancied Yuhang missed her first row seat? Or the numerous voting competitions, none of which we were fancied to win? Doesn’t matter we won most eventually, it’s worth rejoicing but nothing to be proud of; life goes on and we still ain’t fancied to win.
Sometimes I wonder if we even have any reason to not be humble. “Lux Veritas” is not yet a present tense. Even if it does become one finally, it doesn’t comes with lifelong guarantee.
I need a reminder or two at times too, but we will do fine together. Graciousness and humility, keep these in constant check :)
My thoughts these days exactly.
I am most proud of the recent achievements and how the media and others are finally seeing what we have been seeing all these while.
But I tried hard to keep a leveled head on things and not to fall into the dark pit of arrogant.
The satisfaction of being proven right can turned out to be a deadly poision if we continue to feast on it.
Being graciousness and humility are something I learned from the journey with RBKD over the 3 years. We have our ups and downs, but Graciousness and humility brought us this far to where we are now…
But this is not the end of the road, it’s just the end of a tunnel we passed, but we still have more roads to travel on…
Forget not of the two friends whom acted as our lighthouse in the massive sea and we shall not lost our way and selves.
