What do you do when you are forced to make certain decisions that you don't want to make?
Yeah it's hard ain't it, life truly is complicated, and its hard to weave through the intricate web of friendships, aquaintences, politics, demographics and the whole lot.
I pray that I will make the right choice, or at least that God prompts me, through any sign at all...
I guess its not as bad as I think it is. And alot of my burdens which I have carried have been shed off. Letting go is difficult, its tough, but sometimes it is so necessary. (refer to my old post about the scab/festering wound etc)
Yet at the same time Im starting to distance myself subtlely from everything around me. In a way, its comfortable, you get to stay in the shade, out of the sun, away from the heat. Then again, the shade doesn't last forever, if I were to stick to it, I guess there would only be a limited space to move about. Sure the sun might burn a little, but, within it we are all free to move as we please...hmm
I actually wanted to also comment about God in our lives. A series of events had recently reminded me about our faith. I realised that there are times where I tend to place practicality and worldly commonsense over faith. It is important to always overlay our faith into our daily lives. Its not something we should separate. As a priest brought up before:
And Im paraphrasing here...
There are many people who go to Mass, celebrate it, smile and are all holy and happy, but once they step out and get into the car, they start blasting the car horn and scolding people all the way home.
How do you overlay it? Well through constant reminders I guess, perhaps talking to God everyonce in a while, thanking Him for the little things. Then again, its easier said than done, and sometimes worldy distractions or periods of stress can really make you forget.
But hey, nobody said life was a bed of roses. And then again, rose stalks have thorns anyhow.
In other news...
1) Infiltration of shabu shabu
Yup, along with Moses Jon and Steph, we joined in Shabu Shabu's day of fun and games. And yeah, I must add it was really super fun. Despite the fact that I had little sleep that day and started acting like a complete fool (again) it was really great playing Cranium and all. Ohhhh and the dinner was super cool too, really fantastic food, and I would have pictures posted but they are presently in someone elses camera. I hope to get my hands on them soon. And as my MSN nick goes, I am now an honourary member of a group that I created. Weird eh? hahaha...but ya, great outing!
2) Arts Outing
Celebrated Trebeks birthday that night, with a super special prank. Made it seem like we cut his cake before hand and unknowingly haha. And as usual I lovedddd the BBQ food, but the stingray was a little too spicy for me. I love the arts people man, really fun to hang out with them. And today Moses drove! haha so the sending home duties were lighter today haha...
Well, thats about all for now...I have so many more thoughts, but some are hard to put into words...so perhaps till next time!
