If Nothing Gets Better… Nothing Does…

A Duncan knows when times are good, it means the best things are coming. When times are bad, the worst things will arrive. Life has always been about ups and downs. It can be good and it can be bad. If life is left alone… it will reset and it will be back to normal.

It is just recently, listening to Kina Grannis latest single “Sorry”. There’s passion and relation to it. It spoke to a Duncan a lot. One that a Duncan felt when there is “change”… there is.

Knowing how life is – when there is “change”, it can be good and it can be bad. In change, there is consequences… it changes the path of a person. It is a change when one person changes habits. It is a change when one person makes a little amendments of things. In previous post, a Duncan’s mood can change a little based on how people behave around him. It is some thing a Duncan can’t do any thing about it.

Here is the lyrics of “Sorry”

Let’s stop pretending

It’s bad enough that we both got scared

Both gave up a little

If I know one thing

It’s that there is too many parts of air

That tease and touch between us

We should be more than this

Oh my lover let’s start over will we ever say we’re sorry

It’s not going to get better if we never say we’re sorry

What are you meaning

Somehow it feels you are a world away

While I just wait here

And I know these are the things

The little moments that bring us closer

If we make it there

Leave your words

Take my hand

Oh my lover let’s start over will we ever say we’re sorry

It’s not going to get better if we never say we’re sorry

Can we stop this now

For good

For good

I will love you anyhow

For good

For good

So let me take you by the hand

For good

For good

And if we care we’ll understand

Oh my lover let’s start over will we ever say we’re sorry

It’s not going to get better if we never say we’re sorry

Oh my lover let’s start over will we ever say we’re sorry

It’s not going to get better if we never say we’re sorry

Maybe it is time… maybe it is time to understand about “changes”… well… A Duncan has to accept it.

“Changes”… nothing gets better… nothing will. Learn to accept… learn to just… do what needs to be done.

A Makeover Hairstyle Of A Duncan

A Duncan had a haircut yesterday – one that does make him look different. His hair is thinning greatly. It is not easy to cover part of his scalp showing his thinning hair as it is oily. The hair style he had was a side parting. It was a timeless hairstyle since he was in his teens until yesterday. He then good friend said “your hairstyle is timeless, bro”.  A Duncan was not sure whether he will take that as a compliment or an insult. For years and years (more than 20), the style he had was always side parting. Once, he did comb his straight right up, like James “Jimmy The Gent” Conway in Goodfellas. Another, before teens, a Duncan had a crew-cut – a spike ball shape on his head. He did try center-parting but it does not feel good and the side parting keep happening.

As the years go by, his hair is thinning. Mostly because of oily hair and he did try different medicated shampoo, even some treatment but to no avail, the thinning continues.

So yesterday, a Duncan went to an express quick-cut shop, explained what style he wanted to the hair-stylist.

At first, he almost asked for a crew-cut (as a Duncan was kind of blur then). Then he want to go for a style that is short, comb straight towards his forehead and down.

He almost had a bowl-cut.

In the end, the hair-stylist understands what he wanted… and got the hairstyle he never expects makes him look mature, older… and edgier.

By tomorrow, a Duncan is going to have not just a makeover hairstyle alone… But also a makeover of his attitude, his fashion sense and his life.

What might happen to a Duncan after that… Who knows… It might be good tidings that come in change. And a good change is always good. He is never too old to reinvent himself.
