This colour

Had breakfast with Edwin in the morning. Later on, he accompanied me to the Botanical Gardens for a stroll. Edwin was quite delighted to see the white swans. As we passed by the Ginger Garden, he told me he disliked gingers in his food. I don't like gingers very much either. Especially ginger tea. Edwin loves dogs. He would stop to look at them. Initially my plan was to return back to church but somehow i decided to head back home. Took bus 105 back together with Edwin. He was going to his girlfriend's place. She just returned back to Singapore last night. Felt that i need to do something for Edwin. Anyway i am feeling a bit lazy today and having the "stay at home" syndrome. To lie on my bed and nap. Read a book. Dine with my parents. Surf net..etc. I wanted to call somebody in fellowship to inform at least a person that i would not be going but i dunno who to call so yeap wait for someone or anyone to call me back..same la.
I have been holding on to hope. Believing in love. Trusting in faith. They had kept me going and motivated me. Whether a coincidence or not. I was given the opportunity to go into the lives of broken people around me. There were times when the other person had lost nearly all the hopes in life...i could felt the despair and hurt they are facing. I realise that to stay focus in God everyday has became critically crucial. Negative thoughts could penetrate our minds easily. Activities that draw us away from God are always present. Don't trust yourself. Trust God. I have learnt. Your mind is constantly inputing things that make you fear and worry. In the book of Joshua, the bible tells us to be courageous and in 1 Peter, it says cast all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. All humans need to be love. Problem is that we try to find the love from everywhere except God himself. Please pray for me and for each other.
No one has ever seen God, but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us. 1 John 4:12

haha wah u count the no of mths that we didn't meet ah? *touched* haha!

anw..this verse is v touching to me now. haha God is speaking to me lah. my friend told me today that i need to love myself. hmm loving urself actually is not selfish right? ya lor, it helps you to love others more if you can accept yourself.

but on the other hand if u hate yourself you will make everyone feel that u are self centered. haha kinda rite? i dunno. just a long train of thought. hee.

Yea..see how your friendship matters to me? Haha. Well...I think once u start to look down on yourself, you won't be a happy person..how to help others when you are unhappy with yourself? With all the negative energy inside, i think its hard for love to flow out from you..HAHA..hope i am making some sense here.
