The world around me is making me feel so very sad...
Deadly viruses is spreading around. The financial world is crashing down. Within a country, people with authorities are fighting among themselves. And there is a big percentage of broken marriages & divorces. Seriously, what is this world becoming to?
As for myself? What can I say? You were scared & I was scared too...But you held my hands! How can I ever forget that??? You bring the world & smiles to me but only to destroy it now...
Papa God, please help us...please help this world. I believe in You. I still believe that there is true love is this world and there is pureness in people's heart. Everybody may think that I'm naive. But I still want to believe...I want to cling on to this hope in You!

Grace...
Some ppl is really testing my patience. And the best thing of all is that I must love this enemy. Does this sentence sounds ironic or wrong or funny to you? But no...that wasn't my intention.
Matthew 5:44
But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven.
I'm enjoying this walk with God every single second. Thank you, my dear Lord. =)

Praise the Lord!
I have so much to say about today but I am locking it up in my heart for now.
The feeling is simply fantastic/great/wonderful/fill in anything good & I really do not want it to go away...
And right now, I'm just eager to find out/know/see what God has in store for me. =)

Memorable quotes...
I have always kept the following quote from the movie "Juno" bookmarked on my favorites. And this shall remain as one of the best...
Mac MacGuff(Dad) to Juno: Look, in my opinion, the best thing you can do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you, the right person is still going to think the sun shines out your ass. That's the kind of person that's worth sticking with.

Proverbs 19:11
A man's wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to overlook an offense.
Lord, give me the ability to be slow to anger. Take away anything in me that refuses to let go of anger over things that have happened. Help me to not get angry over that I think are injustices or personal affronts. Help me instead to quickly overlook the things that make me upset and release all my anger to You. Replace anger in me with Your love and patience. Help me to be gracious to everyone I see and to be full of compassion in all situations. Help me to not retaliate with angry words that I will ultimately regret and that will grieve Your Holy Spirit. If anyone is angry at me or convicted me for any reason, whether justified or not, help me to always give a soft and gentle answer and forsake harsh words that stir up strife. I don't want anger in me to delay my wholeness and keep me from the destiny You have for me.

PLEASE...
Dear Lord, I really love KC.
Even with the situation we're in right now, my heart still goes out to him.
I do not wish to seek the easiest way out which is to give up. I WILL NOT agree to the devil or succumb to whatever circumstances we're in.
KC said to me, the one thing he would want to exchange with me is determination. Father, I beg of you please, will You grant him that determination to persevere on this relationship too?
PLEASE, I beg You please.

Have you ever...
Just wanna sing this tonight...
Have you ever love somebody so much
It makes you cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right
Have you ever, have you ever
Have you ever been in love
Been in love so bad
You'd do anything to make them understand
Have you ever had someone steal your heart away
You'd give anything to make them feel the same
Have you ever searched for words to get you in their heart
But you don't know what to say
And you don't know where to start
Have you ever love somebody so much
It's make you wanna cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right
Have you ever, have you ever
Have you ever found the one
You've dreamed of all your life
You'd do anything to look into their eyes
Have you finally found the one you've given your heart to you
Only to find that one wont give their heart to you
Have you ever closed your eyes and
Dreamed that they were there
And all you can do is wait for the day when they will care
What do I gotta do to get to you in my arms baby
What do I gotta do to get to your heart
To make you understand how I need you next to me
Gotta get you in my world
cos baby I can't sleep...
Have you ever love somebody so much
It makes you cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right
Have you ever, have you ever
Have you ever been in love
Been in love so bad
You'd do anything to make them understand
Have you ever had someone steal your heart away
You'd give anything to make them feel the same
Have you ever searched for words to get you in their heart

Only to find that one wont give their heart to you
Have you ever closed your eyes and
Dreamed that they were there
And all you can do is wait for the day when they will care
What do I gotta do to get to you in my arms baby
What do I gotta do to get to your heart
To make you understand how I need you next to me
Gotta get you in my world
cos baby I can't sleep...

Wake up call... III
I've just gotten the letter which states how much we are getting for our bonus. And it triggers me to do a quick review of my life for the past one year or so.
The transfer of department, gained more personal time, got in a relationship...etc. I think I shall not elaborate on these areas...
The best of 2008 is receiving salvation through my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
FYI: I titled the post, "Wake up call.." as it is a realization of things and its time to do something about it.

Wake up call... II
On second thoughts, I realized there are things which makes me wanna scream out LOUD.
I had been hesitating if I should have kept it in me by not muttering a word. But now, I decided to blog it (of cos without the major details).
1. Perhaps you are right! As from your POV, you would be like everybody else whom only gets to hear the politically right answers. How does it benefit others, by blurting your kiddo thoughts??? Don't you even know the simple fact that putting things into action isn't easy and it is impossible when people do not even see the need to lift a finger? Why don't you try achieving what you have said, if you were in my situation??!!!
2. I certainly do not deserve whatever I'm going through right now.
I CERTAINLY DO NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wake up call...
Okies...so God whacked my head and made me realized that I'm in a few deep shits and it is time to climb out from the pit.
All these were caused by my own hands and I had estimated that I will probably need a year to settle it.
Do not ask me what had happened cos I certainly do not need any judgment except for God's presence and His strength to help me through it.
One thing to assure you readers, it has nothing to do with my relationship or matters concerning life and death. =)

More than just a show...
Jiro had to recite a poem in the drama which triggered me to google. The whole poem is too long for an entry...so you may want to read the beautiful piece here! =)
Stray Birds
By Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941)
1
Stray birds of summer come to my window to sing and fly away. And yellow leaves of autumn, which have no songs, flutter and fall there with a sigh.
2
O troupe of little vagrants of the world, leave your footprints in my words.
3
The world puts off its mask of vastness to its lover. It becomes small as one song, as one kiss of the eternal.
4
It is the tears of the earth that keep her smiles in bloom.
....
325
Release me from my unfulfilled past clinging to me from behind making death difficult.
326
Let this be my last word, that I trust in thy love.

Work Updates...
I use to be the earliest to reach the office but recently I tend to take things easier at work. Or rather, I didn’t have to bother much since I transferred to this department.
However, after the ‘warning session’ last week, everybody seemed uptight and kept thinking which idiot actually complaint.
The job rotation was more like only a switch of product type and now I handle two products which only involve in ‘detailed checking of info’.
How interesting can this be? Blah!

Praise God!
Thank God for creating those 24 hours fast food restaurant, so I can have a pack of crunchy apples to eat for dinner or issit supper?
And people usually says, "an apple a day keeps the doctor away". I say it's God blessing to me, so I can be able to afford such luxury. $2.55 for just a few slices of apple isn't something which many will get to eat, especially in those third world country.
Deep down in my heart...I am really grateful to my Lord.

Light in Darkness...
I'm glad to be greeted by familiar smiling people in church last weekend and that's the marvelous thing about God. He always picks you up in whatever circumstances you are in.
My mood was tremendously awful...I can't stop crying and my heart aches badly. It is embarrassing to be seen in public with red swollen teary eyes. But when people saw me, they didn't question me on anything but just gave me a pat on my back and said, "Have faith in God, He's with you all the time..."
That was something which I really needed, not just the comforting words, but a reminder that I should always stand on Christ's solid rock than the sinking sand.
Dear Lord,
Pls forgive me for my wrongdoings, I have allowed once again the darkness to fall upon me. Cast those unwanted thoughts outta me and renew my mind.
Help me to remember that nothing can happen today that You and I can't handle together.
I know that You are using difficulties to make me better - not bitter. And I can trust You for all the unknown future. In Jesus name I pray...Amen!

Shakespeare Sonnet 116
Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth’s unknown, although his height be taken.
Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle’s compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.
- William Shakespeare

Bad vs Good...
I did two somewhat sad thingyz today and that is to throw away my favorite blouse which was torn beyond mending and my 'chao chao' aka bolster of dunno how many years.
Although the top being torn and the bolster already melting away, it actually took me quite awhile to decide dumping them down the chute.
Now that both items are gone...I'm glad I do not need to see the day where bed bugs crawl or leave chance for any to have an impression that I only have that top in my wardrobe.
Cheers! It's probably time for some shopping? Tsk tsk*
