taggie here.

Love is a minefield. You take a step and get blown to pieces, put yourself back together again and stupidly take another step. I guess that's human nature. It hurts so much to be alone that we'd all rather blow up than be single.

We have no say over the hand dealt us in life, but we do have a lot of control over how this hand is played. We are responsible for bringing out the meaning of our own lives in each moment that we live. Remember each moment happens only once and can never be retrieved again.

A man can fail many times, but he isn't a failure until he begins to blame somebody else.

He who asks is a fool for five minutes, but he who does not ask remains a fool forever.

I have never met a man so ignorant that I couldn't learn something from him.

It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.

All this will not be finished in the first 100 days. Nor will it be finished in the first 1,000 days, nor in the life of this Administration, nor even perhaps in our lifetime on this planet. But let us begin.

The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart.
It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.

Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away.

If you're alone, I'll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow. If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile. But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me

The best kind of friend is the one you could sit on a porch with, never saying a word, and walk away feeling like that was the best conversation you've had.

A friend is one of the nicest things you can have, and one of the best things you can be.

I found a couple of my old english compositions from my sec4 year. I miss school. I miss english class. I miss writing compositions. I miss creating stories. I miss developing plots. I miss delving into the human nature of emotions. I miss discovering the different intensities, the different feelings of words. I miss how each letter would form into a word, how each word would all form sentences, how each sentence would comprise a paragraph, how each paragraph gives me a whole new world to imagine in my head.

I believe the stories I wrote in sec4 is almost at its peak. It being because I loved learning new words, new ways, new phrases to include in my story, and that someone was there to teach them to me. Now, I hardly write any, maybe it's cause I get no inspiration, and now that level of english that was once available to me is deteriorating. I think that if I actually thought thoroughly about what I want and what I loved to do during my sec4 year, I would still come to the conclusion that I love sports, and I love writing stories. Only difference from then and now it's that I could formally decide what I want to do as an ambition, instead of settling with one of my loves. I don't mind writing stories, being an editor for a newspaper, working for the newspaper, being an author, being an english teacher, anything that has to do with english. And I certainly do not mind being a coach, a referee, a trainer, working with the Singapore Sports Council (SSC) or overseas even. These two things are what I love to do. And I'm glad I discovered them.

So maybe now, I want to pose this question to all of you, maybe for better or for worse. What do you love? That is to say, what do you love to do? What is it in life that makes you look forward to each new day, to each moment? For me, it's stories and sports =).

I'm going to get a bit religious here, so if you're not interested please skip the following paragraph.

I'm beginning to love God. I beginning to love going to the service on saturdays, though some circumstances would prevent me from doing so. Like yesterday for instance. I could not go because I had to go shop for a friend's present. I think I'll start from friday, easier to explain. I just got a msg that we were to go shop for my friend's present after work, which was the time i would use to head to the service, so that meant I couldn't go. I was a little saddened. But I read the bible. And I somehow knew, believed that God would make a way. Which made me thought of the song from our GM song book, that we would sing in school. Ah, the good days. I digress, I decided to try if I could play it on my guitar. The last time I tried, I failed horribly. But to my surprise, I took a look at the chords, and I played it! I played God will make a way! He indeed has made a way for me, to further my belief in Him, that just believing made it so. If I may quote from the bible =p, LUKE 11:10 "For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened" .

I was astonished at the discovery, a song which I had not looked at let alone practiced, I was playing with magnificent ease. Surely, that must be the power of God. I began to believe. I began to love God more. I began to have faith. Something that I denied years ago, has come back to me. Because my Father in heaven is merciful, and he is loving. Every up and down in life is part of God's great plan. His great, magnificent plan. And I'm part of it. I'm happy to say, I'm part of it. Because no matter what I do, God loves me and all he asks is that I love him in return, to believe in him, to treat him as a loved one as he treats me.

Again, I digress, in the end I had prayed to make it back to church for a while, and hey, even bring my friend there just to take a look, but circumstances made it such I could not make it back in time. But then, such as one door closed, another door opened. Time management had allowed me to have time to head to church tml. I was joyous. It's been a while since I've felt that kind of simple joy, that followed some complicated happiness =). I just feel that the word joy, is simple in itself, and that feeling happiness is a complicated thing. To me, Joy is something that is felt in a short span but has a high effect, whereas happiness spans over a long while and has a lower intensity, but both are relatively good emotions to feel =). AGAIN, I digress. God indeed made a way for me.

Unfortunately, I have the sin of laziness and greed. I overslept, even after I prompted Ivan to give me a wake up call. Even though I was really looking forward to it. But, behind every dark cloud is a silver lining. For one, I had the time to write all of this. I had to time to read one more book of the New Testament. I had time, to think about everything, all of this, what do I what, what do I love. I had time to discover more of God's wonders. I had time, to strengthen my resolve. I want to be a son of God, I want to spread his word. I want to spread this happiness that I've found, this I wish for my friends. I love you, Father Lord. I am looking forward to next week.

Wow. Never thought I would see nor predict the day I would turn to Christianity. But anyway, I want to share something about the people that made me decide to myself. Let us forget that I'm talking about Christianity for a moment, alright? The service I go to, it is a place filled with an abundance of happiness and joy. It's not a church, but a place everyone there worships God nonetheless. The men and boys there, they are both gentlemen and children, mucking around joking with each other and being kind and thoughtful to the fairer sex. The ladies and girls there, they are feminine and tomboyish at the same time. They can get with the boys and men, and they can be quiet and radiant as well. One cannot be quiet and radiant when with boys and men, and boys and men definately cannot be quiet nor radiant. Haha =D! Everyone's friendly with each other, and I detect no hostility at all. And most importantly, everyone's not afraid to be themselves. No one puts up any false fronts. No one is being who they aren't. No one is afraid to laugh, afraid to smile, afraid to pout, afraid to frown. Everyone, shows off the full spectrum of emotion with no fear of judgement. Everyone, is being themselves. These are the kind of people that I want to be, that I want to be near, that to me represents how society should be like. Loving, forgiving, friendly, and compassionate. These are just a couple of things that I like about that place. And you know what's the best thing I like about that place? That that place, the people in it, it's all about God. The best thing I like about that place, is that it's all about and for God.

The first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: Decide what you want.
