thank you Father for putting me through this rigorous training the past 2 weeks and allowing me to see and laugh at the little tinges of sweetness you've installed in my life. i've gained new insights and i'm a stronger person now. Father, continue to build me up with your will for me, for i'm most willing to adhere to your commands faithfully. amen.

i'm home :)

i'll be right back! ;)

a friend of mine came up to me and asked, "andrew, why are u still wearing this old and torn sneakers? and why are u using that pokka chrysanthemum tea bottle as a water bottle??" i replied vaguely without much thought, "i dont know really. i guess i just dont want to see it being thrown away." this enquiry triggered a train of thoughts. it made me realise a part of myself i never knew. a person i am who retains things that provide a memory of something/somebody or possesses a sentimental value. something of my most prized possession.

dont write me off just yet. we'll make it good again in God's time. :)) patience and love.

what child is this?

standing a little dazed staring blankly at the blurrness of my own reflection as the train tunnels. a child sniffs and cry. her mom replied, "girl, dont pretend ah." they both responded with a giggle, as though it was an inside joke that only she and her mom shared. this child is special. a sensitive child i suppose. she noticed her mom, standing in front of her with her school bag, looking a tad sad and worned, cheered her up with her actions. it was picture perfect. a mother and her daughter sharing a light moment together. their brief exchange of love was sufficient to tell others that all it needs is a random act of love for one another :) it was God's answer to me. thanks be to Him. truly.
