Do not tell me what to do and what not to do
if u were not the best people in this world
Do not tell me how i should live my life
coz u did not know how i have lived my life
Do not push me to do what u think i should do
if u did not want to be pushed to do what they think u should do
Do not ever think i did not think enough
coz u did not even know what is in my thoughts

Cancer, the fourth Sign of the Zodiac, is all about home. Those born under this Sign are ‘roots’ kinds of people and take great pleasure in the comforts of home and family. Cancers are maternal, domestic and love to nurture others. A Cancer’s good memory is the basis for stories told around the dinner table, and don’t be surprised if these folks get emotional about things. Those born under this Sign wear their heart on their sleeve, which is just fine by them.
The mascot of Cancerians is the Crab, and much like this shelled little critter, Cancerians are quick to retreat into their shells if it suits their mood. No wonder these folks are called crabby! For Cancer, it’s not that big of a deal, though, since they consider this ’shell’ a second home. The flip side of this hiding is that shell-bound Crabs are often quite moody. 
Further, in keeping with their difficulty in sharing their innermost feelings, it can become a Herculean task to pry a Crab out of its secret hiding place. What to do? Give the Crab time — eventually these folks will come out to play again. When they do, they’ll be the first to say so, in keeping with the Cardinal Quality attached to this Sign. It’s said that Crabs are first to laugh and first to cry, so you can bet they’ll fill you in.
That shell, by the way, isn’t the only tough thing about Crabs. These folks are tenacious and strong-willed and like to get their way. If their well-documented kindness and gentleness doesn’t do the trick, however, they’re not above using emotional manipulation to make things happen. If that still doesn’t work, they’ll just go back to their shell and sulk, or find a way to get back at the source of their pain, since Crabs can be rather vindictive. That said, any self-respecting Crab would tell you that they are ultimately motivated by protecting their home and loved ones, a most noble goal.
When you have Mars in Taurus you are passionate, sensual, and down to earth. The powerful energy of Mars can be grounded and focused when it is in this placement. You have an assured and determined air that surrounds you, a confidence that you project onto the world. You are persistent and patient, making you a lover who will be stable. You are even tempered but once angered, you are honest, forthright, and passionate with you emotions. You are capable of disciplining yourself, and have a great deal of raw physical strength. Sports, and hobbies that require dedication and discipline provide a release that you can really excel in. You offer personal security to your lovers and are happiest when surrounded by material possessions.
With the flirty type like an air sign, your sexuality comes through in the way you communicate, through your gestures and your inventive ideas. While you’re exceptionally expressive, you may downplay your own emotions in romantic relationships, keeping an aloof distance as a defense against getting hurt. That’s not to say that you’re no fun between the sheets. Quite to the contrary, you’re a playful, flirtatious lover, stimulated by the interplay of two personalities and by some degree of lighthearted debate.
Prologue:
Nope, I’m not speaking about the Blink book by Malcolm Gladwell..(the adaptive subconscious, etc..), although it has some point that came close this story. I just wanna share something in life that no one in this world could predict, called fate. (Yeah, u had those premonition and all the similar stuffs, but still u couldn’t avoid God’s will, right?). In just a splitting second blink of an eye, your life turned upside down, from dusk til dawn, from alive to dead.

And nope, I’m not gonna tell some stories about how lucky we were despite the Bali Getaway which had turned out to be a shocking vacation. Of course I (and all of us) felt grateful that we were missed from the tragedy. It’s just that I realized more, that life could end suddenly without warning. Those people hung out in the ex-café which had blew up, whose gonna tell that their life would end up that way?? It shocked me.
First of all, why everyone suddenly became interested in how we got there and why didn’t we tell about the trip?? It’s very none of their business though. It was our choice to go there without the obliged to tell anyone, and then it was definitely our choice too, to work instead of banana boating due to the blasting incident.

Work? Yup, like I said before to some of you, we planned to getaway from routines. The planned went well until late that night. So many coincidences happened next, considered as an instinct. Not to mention the Jimbaran place where we supposed to have our meal or how lucky we were to stroll around in Legian instead of Kuta Square?? etcetera..etcetera..(did I sound like those bluffers? Hahaha..)..but anyway, the rest of the lazy Sunday ended up planning and building a media crisis center. It was real.
We’re back to the blink stuff. You see, in just a blink of your eyes, your life could be different. In just a blink in Bali, a vacation turned up to be an after hours working. And if according to the Blink book, it’s all about a decision you make within seconds through your instinct.
Epilogue:
Well, whatta life! I’m sure there were always some positive reasons in every case. We learn new things everyday. Anyone might feel his or her vacation had ruined somehow, but honestly speaking, I didn’t though. Yes of course I’m a bit disappointed we couldn’t get appropriate vacation, but in the other side, I’m really proud of us. The “stick together team” had really done a fabulous! Ever somebody notice that? I don’t really care though.
