in the storm today
thunders roared
lightning cracked the sky in two
and beyond all that, one managed to catch the glimpse of a rainbow.
what this rainbow said was: (rainbows can talk!)
And I will show you a still more excellent way.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. [...]

the road ahead is a difficult one. you’ve seen it before, somewhere in your wildest dreams, wildest nightmares; you knew it was coming, and here it lies, staring you with belligerent eyes. you’re frightened, and there’s nothing to be ashamed of that, you’ve left everything behind, and now begins that walk ahead. behind you lies [...]

there really is such a huge difference between what you tell God you will do for Him, and actually getting down to doing it. you never really quite understand that huge disparity between word and action. action entails so much more – so much more responsibility (no longer the flippantly said words of ‘promise’ – [...]

i wonder why i’ve been more cryptic…haha yup i’ve realized the change in my own blogging style (upon much pondering), and it’s really that it’s morphed from a frank, personal and open diary of the day’s events to something less easy to interpret. behind all the little spiritual encouragements lay a heart that had to [...]

ahhhhhhhh i miss my old self ):
i guess fab was right…i looked through the old posts…flipped through the pages of the old me…and found an entirely different person. perhaps ‘changed’ was the word, sobered up, less ellipses, less happy-go-lucky, less serious, less ‘up there and spiritual’. more volatile, more nonsensical, more silly, more…human.

the one thing that struck me about Siddhartha (no matter how monotonously repetitive the book can get at times), was the simple perfection in which it expressed the tussle within the man’s heart, his tussle when he struggled to let go of little Siddhartha. there was a real pain in his heart, one in which [...]

i love this simple verse from Psalms 85:
Love and faithfulness meet together;
righteousness and peace kiss each other.
Faithfulness springs forth from the earth,
and righteousness looks down from the earth.

hmmm. so you’ve got this crush on someone. so you’ve got this tingling feeling whenever he or she walks by. tongue-tied maybe, sweaty palms maybe, or this urge to rush off to the toilet to make sure that every [...]

and finally – after a long time – a post that has some intellectual meaning (need such things to jerk the mind to life)
this subject is not one that i could probably handle on my own, i probably lack the wisdom and all to post about such a topic, but i shall attempt nonetheless to [...]

i remember months ago, on a rather early morning – something about winnie the pooh and his pot of honey -
“pass me the honey pooh; what if i took away all the honey you ever had..would you..still love me?”
something about a great struggle, a wrestle to break free -
and Winnie struggles. looks at the [...]
