just wanna say:
thank you 75,
for giving me so much more than all i could ever ask for all these while.
and the day at sentosa just adds on another wave of nostalgia (:
captain's ball under the scorching sun, futile attempt swimming towards the plot of land across the bridge, played 'monkey' in the sparkling water but at the same time choked by the high sodium content, a really dumb sandcastle competition in which the girls' emerged victorious with their cute turtle!, short 7-11 break, jellyfish discovery, a lost-and-found journey cycling and subway dinner. shueli, cheerup okay? whoever did it is really heartless or im sure lungless too! grr.
we must catch musical fountain some other time yeah?
last monday night'd been a really nice stayover at felicia's house.watched mr.house, an inspiring medical drama.all time favourite egg tarts!, card games which tell-it-all before dozing off, and updates of shocking, irritatable incidents neutralised by sweet happenings.old pal eh, i loved the fact that our houses are separated by just a bend in the road which is merely accessorised with 3 bus-stops.haha!
{spiritual}
today's sermon in church made me ponder a lot.it was a gentle reminder to give thanks IN ALL circumstances, and not just giving thanks FOR good circumstances.no doubt there will be bad circumstances we may have to face, but there is no condition in this world so miserable that we have nothing to thank God for.throughout whatever ordeal we may be through, He is in control, and He's in it with us.and He has a reason and purpose for us.ordeal is God's permissible will to strengthen our faith, to stand firm and to trust Him more.
i like this definition of gratitude.gratitude is a vaccine, for it prevents invasion of a disgruntled spirit and frustration.it is an antotoxin which prevents criticisms and grumblings.lastly, an antiseptic that heals and soothes a troubled spirit.isnt it nice and comforting?
many a time we do not treasure the things around us until we lose them.and by then, it will be too late.and regrets will suffice.in the hussle of our daily lives, we are often so preoccupied that we do not even have the time to stop and give thanks for the simplest blessings in life - the air that we inhale, the beautiful nature amidst us, family, friends and the list goes on and on.
its just a word of thank you, to God.
anyway,
training tomr at gym with coach and that can send some shivers.to be followed by stayover at tiffany's.im so looking forward to seeing you again (:
some things are yet answered,
and doubt will ever be.
perhaps not now.
