God will love you just the way you are,
regardless of who you are,
whether or not you change for better or for worst.

But if you do love Him back,
you would want to change for the better, and to give all that you've received, back to Him.

Feelin pretty chill now.
Was just having a quick browse thru of the blogs of my old sec sch mates.
Kinda brings about thoughts of how fast life has passed us by.
The girls are into their days in uni,
while the JC batch of guys are a couple of months into nation-serving.

Man...i can still vividly remember the times in sec 4, sitting at my place in class,
laughing my ass off daily. it was good.

3 years on, dont talk lots to these peeps anymore.
as much as i dont talk to them,
i really do wish them all the very best in their endeavours.
who knows who we'd become, the next time we have a class reunion?

much has changed for more in the past 3 years.
guess i've pretty much gotten more into church affairs.
learning & growing in a church environment...
i've walked alot more in my faith journey too.
i still am, with many areas of growth awaiting me.

life has been quite a joy, musically too.
gettin into piano.
almost a year on,
i'm happy to be able to play simple, pretty basic stuff decently.
or so i think. heh.

just felt a lil nostalgic, and thought i'd say hi to my lil blog here.

its nice to know that such friends-
my lil 6-stringed darling, my lil blog, and my Bible...

they are always here, waiting to be 'switched on'.

just like the bros & sistas in life.
the ones u'd journey with together into the next >10 years on into the unknown.

I thank the Lord for the many blessings, and for the peace in my heart.

Cheers!

i'll learn.

its gettin late, and i should be catching a lil snooze.

cheers!

Life's been good, with regular doses of bromance along the way.
faggot-ty and confused we may seem in our conversations.
but damn, gta love the chillin' during the late nights..

as much as i hate it, school's been bugging me pretty bad.
5 projects and a personal assignment to do.
music and a lil social life does not feel as carefree,
when you know you've a report waiting for you at home.
not enjoying it i must say.

then you've got the other side of things,
where we may whine, but its a fact that we often overlook the blessing to be able to study,
and live a relatively sheltered life.
The ability to see Him in one's school work is really really tough for me. heh.

havent had a good 'me' time for awhile now.
kinda missing it.

and i've yet to start training for AHM in approx 10 weeks time.
not good.
i can imagine the awesome training that awaits, and reaping the fruits of pounding the paths/trails after numerous weeks.
its the start-putting those shoes on and going, that is the tough one.
secondly, time management.

Time management has always been a real struggle for me.
Too many commitments perhaps.

1. Church,
of which i have the ministry commitments,
and commitments to the youth community/parish events as a whole.

2. Personal spiritual life
Involves weekday Masses (which are awesome btw), Adoration and reading of my Catholic materials

3. Music
- The desire to gain knowledge and insights into the theoretical and practical aspects of music.
-The need to express through the instrument. Esp. through the piano in recent times.

4. Family
-To aim to have dinner at least once during weekdays and at least once during weekends.
-Spending a day with them is an added joy.

5. Chill-time
-A meal or two with sec sch mates, or with the youth community in church.
Time with the fellow kpks and our fellow jokers.
Basically, time to unwind. Timbre is one i'd love to be at more often with the awesome peeps.

6. School
-Yeah, last and the least for me. haha. Basically fulfilling my duties as a student by trying to dutifully do my projects. lets not get to even doing tutorials.
A huge one that considerably limits the above 5 other commitments.

Schooling is good and impt i understand.
but how i am going to apply them to my life in future is another issue.
why take this course, you might ask.
it is a general course that is a safe option.
one that can still take you anywhere else.
and i thought doing HR might have you interact more,
and going out to do some talking.
turns out, its more of the mundane 9-5 life, being at your desk in the deadly, silent office.
not good.

so yes, life has been too busy for my own liking.

I must suck it up, or like what the kpks would say,
balls to me.

haha.

Oh and by the way,
He is still present in my daily life, i know.

Cheers to the game of life.
Enjoy the ride!

Life's been threading along pretty alright.
Not the nicest of times, with projects prettily heavy on.
Its year 3, i gotta suck it up.

headin back to amk home aft tonight.
home sweet home.
the good ol' comfy-to-the-max bed.

Chillin' to keith urban right now.
awesome awesome musician and person...quite the perfect guy. haha.

a certain topic came up while talkin to the good mates.
not sure what i can say of the whole issue too.
sometimes all i can do is look at it and laugh..
its quite funny, how things can take such a turn.
just when you thought things were nice.
He has quite a sense of humour.

Thank God for the gift of music, and for the people He has provided for us.

This quote sums things up pretty nicely for me right now.
Here it goes:

"It is not the magnitude of our actions but the amount of love that is put into them that matters"
Mother Teresa

I am not superman, nor am i gonna play God
Neither am I gonna stop trying to love like Him.

By the Grace of God.
Let His will be done.

Humans. How funny can we be.
Haha.

Anyway,
had some damn good coffee and cake late last night.
Maybe one day i'd try to ask for my dear parents to try it,
and hopefully bring a whole one home.
What a birthday cake it'll be too. haha.

Left my guit stand in the hotel last night,
now she can only stay in the safe comforts of the bag.
Oh well.

Thank God for the faith,
and for showing His presence in all things.
May we never let our emotions and our head rule over the heart where He lives.

"Holy purity is granted by God when it is asked for with humility"
- St. Josemaria Escriva

I've always wondered how it feels for a person to live his/her life with utmost purity.
A state of mind uncorrupted by sin.
Imagine how carefree u can be.
Living your life in purity and humility in His love and presence.
Loving everyone just as He has taught us to.

Back to reality, in a world filled with negativity
and well, not so carefree.
Its hard not to let any form of negativity creep into your head.

One thing is for sure,
He'll be there, waiting for you to come back to Him.
He'll be patient and understanding,
letting you take your time to explore the world around you,
until you choose to run back to Him.

Like a tired child that has finished playing hide and seek with the world,
let us run back to Him.

And i will run to You,
to Your words of truth.

Not by might, not by power,
but by the Spirit of God.
