i find it so amazing (i really need new adjectives) that people can bond over the smallest things. and fight over the smallest things too. but back to bonding, i thought of this yesterday when we were celebrating jayn's birthday in asia cafe. when we got up to go, it was raining, like heavier than drizzling. and some of us had umbrellas while some of us didn't. so we shared umbrellas, walking and laughing in the rain, most of us in pairs. it's just, something as simple as rain and umbrellas could bring us together.. that's pretty =D lor.. =)
most people choose ignorance when they face a burden that doesn't have to be theirs to bear, a call to be compassionate, a need in others lives. i don't want to be most people.
i remember reading about how you can die from heartbreak. from heartbreak, a lot of scientific mumbo jumbo here, your heart stressed out and just stops functioning. scary huh?? but cool in a cool way..
maybe we're all just looking for answers to the questions we don't dare to ask. and sometimes we find it, unexpectedly. whether or not the answer is what we wanted to hear in the first place.
my problem is i always run away from akward situations. like telling people what i really think. but i gotta learn to draw the line between holding my tongue and not correcting when i should.
nobody wants to be ordinary. everyone wants to be extraordinary. well, look up, God made you one of a kind, even if you don't always feel it.
i hate falling short of my standards for myself. i often worry that i won't end up the person i want to be. but i still don't know what tomorrow holds.
scary how life pasts you by huh?
maybe you're not there yet because God has other plans for you now. like the israelites in the desert for 40 years. i think i still have lessons to learn right where i am now. and maybe, just maybe, even lessons to teach.
i remember reading about how a mother lifted a car off her child when he was crushed by it or something, something to do with adrenaline rush wan. that was really amazing. love's probably the greatest thing we have that's given by God, and many times He's bestowed it to us in many ways, especially in the most sacrificial way,through Jesus. no wonder love is so amazing, even among humans. it's so beautiful to see how much power love holds. i know this sounds very corny, disney cartoon lesson, but ah well, you're reading it, deal with it! ;P
i know i've been stoning and emoing more lately. i don't know why either. mid-life crisis perhaps? hahah, bit too early for that! haha, but one thing that really made me feel loads better was "you gotta be happy cause happy is candice!" or something like that. =) thanks gene!
to live life is to experience pain, love, joy, sadness. not just one of the mentioned.
it really is more blessed to give than to receive. yea..
see me for who i really am.
