Just a Thought

I'm still missing you... LOTS.

Brand New Eyes

I was finally back in church today after a very long period of absence. My dad was really happy about it and he was telling his friends how he had a feeling about this.

Usually my dad would get up at about 6ish in the morning to get ready for the first service which starts at 7.45am. He got up at his usual time today but in the end decided to head back to bed. Apparently he had a weird feeling then. I heard him get up again at around 9.30am and so I asked if he was going to the second service. He said yes and asked me why. I said I wanted to go too and told him to wait for me...

We arrived at church just in time to catch the first worship song at about five past ten. The sermon today was on Evangelism and how and why to spread the Good News. The sermon ended at 12.10pm and my dad and I headed to Seri area for lunch. After lunch, my dad made a call to his friend. He then told him the story of how he had a feeling that something was telling him to go to the second service today instead of the first. He sounded really happy. And I smiled to myself...

No More "IFs"

If you want to, I'll come looking for you.
If you think it'll work out, shouldn't we start?
If you like me, tell me no more "IFs"
Just do what you want.

Happy Part II

Seeing you smile makes me smile;
seeing you laugh makes me laugh;
seeing you happy makes me happy;
especially when you're with me...

Simple things from you like saying "I love you", "I miss you", "Thinking of you" or a hug or a kiss from you each day is more than enough to make me happy...

The Difference Between Love and Romance: Grown Up Love

"Love is the one power that awakens the ego to the existence of something outside itself, outside its empire, outside its security."

Love, in other words, is transcending the ego to connect with another.

Johnson writes: "The task of salvaging love from the swamps of romance begins with a shift of vision—. Real relatedness between two people is experienced in the small tasks they do together: the quiet conversation when the day's upheavals are at rest, the soft word of understanding, the daily companionship, the encouragement offered in a difficult moment, the small gift when least expected, the spontaneous gesture of love."

We have conceptual differences. We are conceptual differences. But isn't that where love begins, in the difference—the otherness—that makes love possible, and necessary?

As Robert Heinlein told us in his 1961 novel Stranger in a Strange Land: "Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own."
