today

today is a remembrance of a love story unfolded. of how He chose to give breath to me. its my birthday :) wanna leave a post here before it ends in few mins time..

birthdays, its about you, ppl shake ur hand wishing u, happy birthday. the attention, the gifts (nt for me tho'), the friends.

i think i dont have much to pen today.. been busy the whole day at work from 6am - 4pm, went shopping alone to 5plus, got home, had dinner and online now..

but at work, i have gals singing birthday song aloud (literally) from their dormitories, hugging me, received tones of handmade cards and letters. i knew God was with me as i started my work. i still believe He's still is.

every year passes in a blinking of eyelids, as i was watching the memoirs on the tv of our late DPM Rajaratnam, how he embraced life to the fullness and the way his life and love showered upon people he led and met. tho' i wasn't born into his era, somehow i asked myself what do i want left when i leave here one day.

haa.. kindof ironic to talk about the d- word when today's supposed be my b-day hor? but hey, the Lord give and the Lord takes. make a difference, make a big deal for Him today!

Psalm 23

A David psalm

2You have bedded me down in lush meadows,

you find me quiet pools to drink from.

3True to your word,

you let me catch my breath

and send me in the right direction.

4Even when the way goes through

Death Valley,

I'm not afraid

when you walk at my side.

Your trusty shepherd's crook

makes me feel secure.

5You serve me a six-course dinner

right in front of my enemies.

You revive my drooping head;

my cup brims with blessing.

6Your beauty and love chase after me

every day of my life.

I'm back home in the house of GOD

for the rest of my life.

I Not Stupid Too.

I not stupid too. Jack Neo's show, local production.

just came back after watching the show at JP.. somehow the show touched on almost all the touchy, debatable issues of singapore's society now.. from the snippets, you would roughly have guessed from the main cast of youths.

i shall not spoil it for you guys for those who have yet to catch the show.. but as i was watching (and tearing away), i can't help but felt my heart really cried for the youths who longed for love. love from any source actually. the reality is, we all desired to be loved, to be heard, to be understood. youths of our generation no longer "respond" the way it did from our older generations. (no offence tho') but we need a key.. a key to their world..

i duno why.. but i think its because i work with youths now in my current job, that i feel especially for what the show depicts, happened and turned out of our young people nowadays. it just breaks my heart to see that parents (or even ourselves!) aren't listening anymore, aren't communicating... talking to, maybe, but learning to hear our young people talk?.. well, that's hard huh? a word of encouragement, a smile of affirmation slowly builds up someone's character and who knows, it might melt the hardest, coldest hearts.. if we only just open our mouths, for the right words.

i cried because there's so many more people out there who's hurting, who's longing, who's lonely and who's lost. i'm a christian. my friends knows that, but in my heart, i've always wanted my friends to get to know this God i worship, and to let this God who loves them, know them. i will not stop praying, i never had. God loves me.. but He loves you too..say yes i believe, and ask Him to enter your lives.... cast care. Jesus.


catch the show now! but rem bring some tissue hor! :)
