mid week(sorta!) joys.

endured a painful day at school struggling to stay awake but failing every single time, handed studio in,cleaned my sty of a room and here i am now blogging, a routine that had set in almost subconsciously. if only i were that diligent when i comes to reading the bible daily.

but as i allow my thoughts to linger on, i am stopped short in my tracks by a nagging thought-- when, why, and how did reading the bible become one of those 'to do' items in my never ending lists? when, why and how did it become (even though i hate to admit it) a duty i had to fulfill as a christian?

how easy we forget, the significance of the bible and the word.

for, without it, can we possibly even dream of a relationship with God? and if the latter never existed, chances of even understanding the bible is zilch--why even the talk about how reading it might be a burden anyway?

off to put my thoughts into action--one down(thank God!) and another to go! (:

it's strange how you know the holidays are here when most of your friends start disappearing. perhaps having had the burden of meeting datelines removed, it's that sudden increase in spare time that makes that wistfulness well up in you even more.
the binge blogger is back.well, can't blame me, it's just how my mind works.sometimes i just have all these ideas and little things in life coming at me but somehow, i cant put the exact words to my feelings. either that or the lazy bug in me just prefers staring at the computer screen watching jdramas than moving my brain or fingers to blog.ha.it's really just inertia.(as i already mentioned before.) but recently i realised that sometimes it's more than just that. sometimes, i forget what's on my mind. many times actually. there are times when many thoughts overwhelm me and when i try to figure one out by putting it down in words in my mind, the other thought just happily flits by. no matter how hard i try to grasp onto it before it flies away(while figuring out the other), i just dont have enough to hold onto it without forgetting a little of what ive been figuring out for the past while.then eventually my mind becomes a jumbled mess of thoughts, so tangled that i
someone asked me at work today,"why do people want to get attached?" i was actually stumped for a moment.can you believe it, after all that fuss i make about not being able to find the special someone to share my life with, that im actually lost for words? ha, i would have thought that i would be bursting with answers for her--cos it's always such a joy to have someone to share very special moments in life with you, cos you know that there's someone there who loves you during the terribly unbearable times, cos you will get to experience the sweet moments when someone does romantic gestures for you, the secure and safe feelings at the other person's touch..oh no i think i can go on forever. but why, at that moment was my mind a blank?why did i have to think so long for the answers to her question?maybe the desire to get attached wasnt such an important thing to me after all, as much as i think it is. i really surprise myself sometimes.
