Read an anonymous quote today, that said, ” Happiness is not the goal in life”. Kind of reminded me of some things.
Thank God also for something today, earned $305 today. His Grace is sufficient True true true. Thank you Lord.
On a side note, sense that a lot of old thinkings are cracking and peeling away slowly, layer by layer, until new perspectives are constantly forming, which are in line with peace and joy that comes from Him.
And. It’s quite a happy day. Got to go off work earlier, lots of tidbits at work, darkened my hair, watched tv (didn’t watch for many months) & happy to see food on the table when I reached home.
Think I’ll just continue blogging on and off, to keep track of things as I type much faster and is more legible than I write.
Looks like L. His voice is really nice. It is actually in German, but does sound like Thai at some parts. Like this song.
It’s strange, I can smell songs. Some songs smell spicy, but some songs smell fruity, others smell different as well. This one has a bit of sandal wood, plus other elements, a bit like Bvlgari’s.
Running through the monsoon, beyond the world, till the end of time, where the rain won’t hurt, fighting the storm, into the blue, and when I lose myself I think of you, together we’ll be running somewhere new, through the monsoon, just me and you.
I am actually a very sensitive person, though I don’t show it. Not sensitive as in sensitive to what ppl say about me, as those don’t really bother me. But it is another kind of sensitive in things that are hard to explain out.
This new year 2010 has been good so far, everyday.
As natural as catching a song’s beat, or as natural as typing words on the computer, so it is as natural to be really happy and at peace when I walk under His wings of Truth. I’ve wasted 2009. Don’t want to waste this year.
Completed my main objective of today that is to do up a more professional looking and more up dated resume on top of the other things.
Gosh. Wonder why I like blogging about such trivial stuff. Perhaps I just like writing out my thoughts and bugging people.
Thought hard about it today, UK plan maybe on hold for a year first. My heart wants to stay on here to do many other stuff first for at least one year, or also that I was already given other commitments to do well for a period first since beginning of the year. My IELTS is valid until 2011 August. No hurry. Hope to talk to Dr P. tmr and to discuss more, esp the long term one that she proposed for a Masters in U.S., that’s my main priority tmr on top of other things.
Got bored while doing the resume so tested my laptop’s voice recording by singing. I sound like Stella Ng hehe. No offense to Stella’s fans, but it’s true. Tried to convert the file onto Youtube but got some hicks, so abandon ship.
Today read James 5 which told me to persevere and to be patient in waiting, in suffering, and to pray when distressed. Learning point.
Yea, I really sound like her from the laptop recording device:
Recently, heard from a few friends around me who are from different industries from me, about their workplace and how they are bullied by people who are richer or more higher educated. See that happening with my own eyes too.
Just feel that sometimes ppl can look down on others just because of their job nature being in the service line, or that because they are not as highly educated or rich, or just because they are poor. It happens quite frequently and it is quite common actually. But that doesn’t mean we need to feel sad or angry about it. For it is nothing and it cannot be changed that easily. You befriend someone because of the character, not because he has a PhD or Degree or that he drives a sports car or because he buys Kate Spades or has a status. No, usually friends don’t see that as important, but rather the heart….. As long as what we are doing is upright and honest, we should be proud of what we are doing. If we are eating Maggie Mee, or biscuits, it is still the same as abalone or Crystal jade, still food. Don’t have to feel sad… As long as we are there for each other, we know our common purpose and what we want to achieve in life, and that God loves us, that would be more than enough.
Let them see us whatever or whichever way they want, for that is only an illusion and not what we really are.
love this song wish i could be her in the music video, esp when the musical instruments automatically play for her when she’s alone in the room.. so nice that would be.. just to lean against the piano when u are at home alone and sad, and hearing it automatically play..
This is yet another period to endure hard work, to be even more hardworking than before, to stay healthy, to keep the faith and joyful in the Lord.
The race starts again. Rested enough.
It can be years, it can be hard, tough and tiring, but when the moment has reached, it is definitely worth the wait.
LOL. Didn’t run in two years, so nearly died today when I ran with LeeHuan to Lakeside. Whenever she looks back, I’ll faster run a bit, but when she turns back, I’ll be skiving and panting like mad. LOL.
Then went to Mag’s farewell. Got to know that Zhenjie lives in the block beside mine, so he sent us back by car. lol. Then LH deposited her big bag of stuff in his car so that they can go to Church together tmr morning as she stayed overnight at my place. So coincidental.
Hahaha. Next time got two more ppl to accompany me go jogging and play Beat mania and do QT together in my Ulu ulu area liao. Ha ha ha! Great!
As usual, when there are some problems that I’m untangling, I tend to talk in the indirect manner, which aids in helping me feel better.
Something I come up with after a hurricane of thoughts.
In this case, substitute Sally with your own name to make it personable. Why did Sally open the box?
There can be many reasons to that. Hundreds in fact. E.g. she wants to take a sweet inside, she just opens it for fun, she has nothing better to do, she wants to take a knife inside and kill someone, she wants to ventilate the box.. etc. Perhaps Sally couldn’t open a previous box, that’s why she wants to open this box. No one knows the reason, only Sally does. So why did sally open the box? Ask Sally.
But it depends on why she wants to open the box, the motive behind it and also what’s inside the box. So it is with us, while many sees a box, which is a situation, people see it without knowing what’s truly inside it, nor the person’s motives and reasons. That is why, in fact, we can never understand why some people do certain things that one can never comprehend their reason why. For every reason is different, and so that one’s judgment of that reason would be in error.
Can we stop her from opening the box? Yes we can. But can we prevent her from opening the box before she knows what’s in the box, that would be a bit difficult.
A thought leads to an action. Gather the best thoughts and one can become one’s best, and combine the worst thoughts and one can see the most wanted criminal.
A good point would be to ask Sally, “Why do you want to open the box?”, as we ask ourselves our motives and reasons behind doing certain things. That if we discover the wrong and thwarted motives and reasons, we may halt ourselves from getting into certain wrong situations.
So why did sally open the box? Ask Sally.
If judgment looms under every steeple
If lofty glances from lofty people
Can’t see past her scarlet letter
And we’ve never even met her
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
Or does anybody even know she’s going down today
Under the shadow of our steeple
With all the lost and lonely people
Searching for the hope that’s tucked away in you and me
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
Chanced upon this interesting video… Sometimes I tend to think that it is most important that the Lord will provide for me food and daily necessities, but actually, He provides more than that…
