The Best of Me.

I am not perfect,
never was,
and never will be.
These are not words of the pessimist,
but rather words of life's reality.
One can strive to be perfect,
flawless and free,
Free from what you may ask?
Free from all of life's vanity.
Though things on earth are only temporary,
it doesn't mean we're free from all of life's worry.
Vanity, indeed, at the end of the day,
nonetheless, we've all still got a role to play.
How you'd answer at the judgement,
is how you live your life today.
I fear the worst, I can't deny,
but i find comfort in knowing I have a guide.
He's always watching from up above,
taking care of my every need here on earth.
So here i stand, to share what i can,
Tis this statement i find so dear,
For now everything just seems a little clearer,
"Do your best and God will do the rest."

Thankfulness.

I woke up this morning today,
One look outside the window,
I see trees dancing, flowers blooming,
Birds chirping, and sun brightly shining,
"Oh Lord, what a beautiful day!", i thought to myself.

As i brushed my teeth,
A song came across my mind,
"Everything is beautiful in their own ways.."
I pondered a moment and thought to myself,
"How true." What more have i to ask from you, dear Lord?

Just as I was done washing up,
I then glance through my lil calendar on the dressing table,
Realizing how time has passed me by,
Reminiscence of all the treasured moments, family, friends, and loved ones,
I thought to myself, "Dear Lord, I thank thee for yet another day."

As I walked down the stairs,
Anticipating this beautiful day,
I then start to wonder: "How is it that i'm here today?"
In a moment of thought, I then came to my senses,
"Oh dear Lord, thank you for blessing me such wonderful parents."

Now, sitting here, with my lap top,
Blogging out my thoughts,
I start to wonder and think,
God must have been really creative,
to have created this mind and these hands of mine.

Oh i've so much more things to be thankful for,
One post isn't enough to say it all,
For the list goes on and on,
Never ending till I'm gone.
So I'll just count my blessings every day,
For I know, life is but a vapour,
this world just a temporary place to stay.

Change Your Impression.

A Never Changing impression?

Well think again. Sometimes being mere humans, we tend be a little too judgemental at times.
So little Sally was always shy..and thus we'd assume she'd still be the same old little girl we always knew.
Bob was always fooling around and never did his homework, so we'd assume he'd grow up being irresponsible.

Firstly, isn't it all but a mere pre-concept of our own? Impressions we form towards people based on what they may or may not have done in the past and character wise. But on second thoughts, do you not think that people can change? or rather do you not know that people do change?

Little Sally who was always shy is now pursuing a Masters in Mass Communication. On the other hand, Little Bob who was always fooling around and never did his homework, is a well-known doctor today. Can't believe it?

Well BELIEVE IT. PEOPLE CAN CHANGE. Sometimes we ought to give a little room to others into believing that they can change, just like we'd like for them to give us a chance into believing in our own potential to change, for the better. This practically applies to things and situations in life as well. How would you like it if people constantly judge you merely based on an impression they had formed towards you in the past?
Wouldn't you like to shout out to them one day saying : ''I'm a Changed Person!"?

Hence personally, I do believe in the statement, Never judge a book by it's cover. Even if what you see in a person today, may not be the same in the future. As time goes by, people and things change. It's just only the matter of changing for the better or worse. Of course, as humans, we strive to become a better person each day. After all, life is a learning process. You don't change just in an hour or a day, for some, maybe even a lifetime.
Nevertheless, at the end of the day, it's the question of:

'Do you count yourself to have lived a worthy life?'

Someone told me:

"This world is like a stage, we've all got a part to play."

As i took a deeper insight into these words, I find it very true.

Don't you think that at times we're but little actor and actresses on stage. Given our own role/task, we are to perform accordingly. At the event if we fail to do so, we will then be judged eventually and accordingly. This is where impressions start to form.

In relevance to life, we as humans constantly have our own responsibilities to fulfill. We are also constantly under the eyes of others, thus there is no running away from being judged, just like how we place judgement on others too.

Nevertheless, how you live your life in the present, greatly determines the outcome of the future or rather your own future.

So don't we all have a part to play?
Where we could say: "I've lived my life worthy",

at the end of the day?

first look into the mirror of your own.

Reflecting.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Peace of mind I seek.

A goal in mind.

An intention to achieve.

Health is Wealth.

I'll do Whatever it Takes.

Tis stepping down,
my current thoughts.

If a task is once begun,

Never leave it till it's done.

Be the labor great or small,

Do it well or not at all.

lesson learnt.

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?
