Thoughts on a beautiful day

Just yesterday, while i was busy getting ready for liz's surprise. I was practically running in and out of shops not bothered to look at anyone with a smile or check on the whole surroundings of the shops. I was with one focus - to buy what was needed and rush for time! To pause and think.

Why am i so rush? Why are we so rush? In the end.. the surprise went well... everything landed on a perfect note! so why rush at the first place?

I could still remember how my heart beat as if i can't make it... as if i can't catch up with time.. Fear of dissapointing people? or what ?






Why are we so rush??



Sometimes, we should learn to Pause , Think and Reflect. Because rushing sometimes make us lose out a lot on the little things in life. To learn to appreciate those who help you... to help you to understand yourself and others... and etc..

Try to set things in order so that you will not need to rush too much.. Trust in God and Let Him be the peace that guards your heart even when you are rushing!

You know the feeling is really wonderful when you are in a rush situation and God just keeps you calm and at peace.. in His comforting voice that "I will be with you." "i AM in control" "Just trust me."

isn't Our God just awesome?!

haaha.. this blog post might be a little long but if you will, do read on ;) ..

so.. i was sitting with a group of my friends simply chatting away. Then it dawn upon me, ever heard of the word gossiping? Bad gossiping?

You hear them say.. and then they say and then slowly slowly you will say.. and it just spread around like a strange disease and ta da! = rumour = make believe as real = makes people who don't know that person to have a bad impression on that particular him/her! and the effect of this is downright BAD! and DEATHLY! .... erm.. yea sarcastic here.. just so to emphasize my point.. ;) so you get it?

why start a bad gossip at the first place then?

what if one day the bad gossip shifts it's target to YOU! yes YOU!.. what would you feel then?

you know, i believe we should start being a difference by being the ' bad gossip blocker' to block bad gossips from continuing.. it's unhealthy for you and also the victim.. if ever you have a longing to start a gossip, go straight to the person you are not right with (your victim) and tell him what you feel about his/her character and etc that bothers you... it not only helps the person to know his/her wrongs, but to also help the person to grow healthily in character.. Than to have the whole world pin-pointing the person's wrongs... when he could actually make right about it without that but through you, a caring friend...

Putting myself in this, i would love my close friends to tell me about my wrongs and etc.. so that i could change for the better.. Yes, it might be painful. Tears might fall to know that they think of you this way. But then, you only know why and slowly understand yourself better... probably then you realize your friend doesn't know you that well yet.. and slowly build a strong friendship..

I think, true friends are those who not only will be with you when you are in your ups.. in your downs.. true friends are also they with you to correct you.. who are NOT ASHAMED to tell you that you have done something wrong.. and is willing to learn from each other.. being teachable..

:)

Just some thoughts... I pray that through this that you will gain insight and make a difference!

Hope you are blessed!
