Embracing 2009.

A new year, a new start, a new semester,
As i look back at the years i've encountered,
i realized how at times i do not see and treasure,
Life's great, don't you think, at times beyond measure,
so great that we don't think it'll ever be over.

Taken for granted, at times we choose not to see,
on how great our blessings are, count them one to three.
But it's funny how when challenges strike,
often it seems too obvious,
that one may sit down, whine and cry.

Ironic don't you think?
I guess it's just part of human nature,
To see the latter rather than the better,
Oh what can I say?
Most of the times, I'm just like any other.

Nevertheless life is a learning process,
Mistakes, who never makes them?
But at the end of the day,
it's how you'd choose to change them,
learn and you'll be in good hands.

God never forsakes us,
In times of good and bad,
But why at times we question,
If He was always present?
Leaning on our own understanding,
We then assume and go on doubting.

"I will never leave you nor forsake you..",
These are the words of the Bible, don't you remember?
Clear your doubts, do stop and ponder,
How'd you expect to receive?
When you're always in doubt and often waver?

Even so, faith without works is dead,
See how great the sacrifice Abraham had made?
So are we what we claim ourselves to be?
Or just merely hanging on the thread?
All in all, life is not just a game,
Think again, is it not time to make a change?
