i really need somewhere to put my thoughts
i do think much
process it
and forget about it
it’s been donkey weeks since a good blog
i owe it to myself
being busy with everything else
but no quality time with myself
to think
to process
to internalise things
maybe
i haven’t rested enough
since my mission trip
i jumped right into the
things i do daily back again
i’m tired
maybe that’s why debbie
felt that i was quieter
maybe that’s why
i’m more regularly late
maybe that’s why
i can’t be bothered to
run for the bus
or chase for trains
anymore
maybe that’s why
i get irritated
seeing people running around
being so kiasu
standing in front of doors
to get it when i want to get out
i juz want to shout at these people
the trip really changed me
i now understand when
Solomon wrote that
all is vanity
i see that in a whole new light
jesus’ words saying
your treasures are in heaven
brings a whole new perspective to me
it finally meant something to be
in my heart
i can no longer stand in this
chase for wind
that most Singaporeans are satisfied with
the money
the family
the cars
the job
i all dosen’t matter to me anymore
money… just one swipe
it’s gone
family… one accident
it disappears
cars… one crash
it’s wrecked
job… one word
it vanishes
i watched a show on hallmark today
titled
though none go with me
it’s a beautiful love story
but the underline meaning
the beauty of the service for christ
it wowed me
there was this line that spoke to me
though none go with me
i will follow
no turning back
no turning back
i will follow
and how when you are 70
you look back
and how god has worked through you
you’ll be amazed and humbled
at how many you’ve impacted
it challenged me
the show challenged me
how one trip
can change someone so much
can change me so much
i’m not looking for an easy way out of the singapore lifestyle
the stresses the pace the heat the rudeness the recklessness
i’m looking for the freedom of christ for the singapore lifestyle
the peace the willingness the love
i’m just looking forward
to having a beer with a friend
pausing from the singapore pace
just chatting and complaining on life
anyone on for it…
you know my number…

i was thinking
and a thought dawned on me
i’m not in a stage where i can plug in
a relationship and live
i’ll overload
when i look at joc smsing and ian spending time
i so can see my self doing that
and dying the next day
i want a gf but
thinking thinking thinking
i can’t take it
the time on the phone late night daily
the time messaging late night daily
i’ll just fall asleep
and i really really need to sleep enough
i can’t take the need to go out or see each other
almost daily
that’s just too much time
i hate it when girls are possessive
wanting to see me everyother minute
and will get upset just because i don’t
reply her message within an 5 min…
i told joc this
and she said this
you need a girl who need less security
every girl needs security
but you get one who needs less
:D
i just thought in my heart at that point of time
i need a girl who is secure in christ
and secure in the god who is over the relationship
and trusts me enough to love her despite my inadequacies
and lack of giving attention
in hippie language
“dude, i’m a free sprit”
so i conclude,
i can’t have a functional
bgr just YET

one thing after reading 3 chapters of future grace
this stuck with me
“Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving.” -eph 5:4
jp wrote explained the verse in away that blew me away
thanksgiving is mutually exclusive from crude joking
you can’t be having foolish talk and give thanks at the same time
since
we are called to give thanks in all circumstances
and give thanks all the time
i’m gulity
guarantee
plus
chop
and yea
i’m struggling with this
