The close of another chapter in my life

Friday, September 28th, 2007

Only hours away till I leave Malaysia once more to continue my course. What I’m feeling is really hard to describe. I feel sad and worried, but at the same time I know there is much to look forward to. I can really see the chapters of my life as if my whole life was written in a book. Going back to Birmingham and starting my third year would be the closing of a chapter and the beginning of a new one.

I can’t help feeling worried about my good friends here, some who are going through difficult times right now, with many important decisions to make, some are having problems at work, and some who are having problems in their relationships. Though we will be miles and miles apart, I will try my very very best to keep in touch with all of you, but you all must promise me that you will try your best to do so too. GOOD FRIENDS CAN’T BE KEPT APART BY A LITTLE STRETCH OF OCEAN!!

So to all of you, please take care of yourselves, take care of your hearts, and I promise I will take good care of myself too. Don’t worry too much about me, and don’t make me worry about all of you too much. Till we meet again, I will always pray for your well-being. I love all of you, my wonderful friends. =)

Ecclesiastes 3

Wednesday, September 26th, 2007

One of my favourite passages in the Bible is Ecclesiastes chapter 3. It really really reminds me whenever I feel sad that it is alright for me to feel that way. As it says, there is a time for everything. We can’t hope to feel happy ALL the time..because there is a time to feel happy and a time to feel sad. A time to fall in love, and a time to fall out of love. There is a time to work hard, and a time to enjoy. A time to weep, and a time to let go and smile. I’m sure everyone has something to learn from this passage. Here are some verses from the chapter. Enjoy! =)

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

He hath made everything beautiful in His time: also He hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.

Sadness

Tuesday, September 11th, 2007

Waited for something for so long that I lost all hope of ever finding it. I finally found it. I really found it. I couldn’t even believe that this would happen to me. But..I cannot keep it and call it mine. The clock is ticking down the minutes till I say goodbye.

这是不能说的秘密 shhh…
