Xing Xue Lai Chao
DUM DEE DUMS.........its been A LONG LONG time since anyhow posted any emo- threads here lei....
Anyway, I guess I should start the ball rolling and hopefully you guys will keep the momentum going...
This week was wierd.
Busi-ness AMPLIFIED x 100000000 ...
No time to rest. Rushing from place to place. Hi bye hi bye cyas around...dots
Yea, and I suffered from post-holiday withdrawal symptoms. Gosh. How i missed the beaches in Redang( though the service was HORRENDOUS)
Ooh well, yes back to my point, Bamm.. back to sg, right smack in all the hectic-ness once more. Do this. Do that. Go here. Go there. I should'nt go further as to list every single thing i did or it'll be too darn bored. Heh. sadistically, i found fulfilment in such a busy schedule. What's more, I had updates on the people whom I kinda lost touch during the hols.
And what's more, all these seem so much more meaningful after what Bro Darren had preached during cellgroup. I'm like wah.. thank God all this busy crap didn't go to waste man. At least I'm impacting ppl's life.
And well, Zoe asked the qns how do u define success during our retreat at Redang...
I guess I found mine through my journey in Man Hunt. It sounds out of the world, but yes but Man hunt really gave me a chance to think of what I want in the future so that I could answer those tacky questions with realism.
SUccess to me : Impacting Lives. As many as possible. I want to see them grow, to see them grab hold of their lives and discover their own purpose on Earth.
I had the revelation that, if we can really look towards Jesus, see the greater purpose that He has for us in life, everything else would seem minute. And yes indeed, the song we sang for worship " my life fades away" ... it exactly depicts the feeling that everything else is small compared to the greater purpose that God has for us. Studies...GPA...Materialism... if we can learn to look beyond all these and focus on greater things, our lives might just become more joyful and purposeful, " and all these things will be added onto us"
Yes, mindless pursuit for GPA results studies might ultimately land you a First Class Honours. So are we going to tell God : HEY, I topped my class lei. Zai not? Instead, why not tell Him : Hey, see I"ve changed this guy's life. I've helped the poor. I've been doing your works. Of whom would you want to be? The former, or latter?
WHoa ok it doesn't sound like me to say all these above. Thus " Xing Xue Lai Chao" :)
On a last note, Ms DUMDEEDUM mascot, why do i keep meeting you n ur darling everywhere i go >.<
