PERSPECTIVE
When I was 5 years old,
my mother told me that happiness was the key to life.
When i went to school, they asked me what i wanted to be when i grew up.
I wrote down "Happy".
They told me I din't understand the assignment and I told them they din't understand Life.
Now that I am 22 years old,
When i go to work, my boss asks me what are my targets in life.
I said "To be happy".
He told me I din't understand the question and i told him "It's OK",
i have understood that everyone sees Life differently.

REVIVAL
for the first time, i went to City Harvest church service at expo yday. the crowd is totally unimaginable; as if it was an idols' concert, with a presence of strong back-ups of urser and security... Wow! Good isnt even fit to describe this event turn-out... Amazing seems to be the right word.
anyway, i got touched. its the first time since many many many years because i couldnt even recall when was the last time someone made me feel this way; especially when i witness all thousands of people, clutching their hands together and closing their eyes, wholeheartedly talking to their one and only Holy God; their face of desperation to pour their hearts out to him, really touched me because it made me realise how painful i had been living my live; all by myself, with no one to even share my darkest secret or even to admit a big mistake wholeheartedly too. how pathetic i felt and how envious i got at that moment when i saw those thousands of brave souls, murmuring their sins and asking for forgiveness together... and then enlightened by His words.
This got me thinking; for the past many years, i have been keeping everything to myself. i thought i was being normal to do that because i never liked to share my worries and burden to anyone, thats why i always feel a need to carry a smile to everyone i see and meet; hoping to be someone that everyone can remember all their happy times and memories with...
And i admit thats how selfish i am.
because this is my way of cherishing the friends i love and i wont change it though.
instead, i have a greater determination now than my previous blog entry, that i will be even more honest with myself and work towards the life i really want to lead and stop slacking through with all the unfairness and negative thoughts in my heart anymore =)
And for once, im going to say this too.
In the name of God, Amen.
