A story

This story was told to me weeks ago but it turns out that i had saved it under my drafts and so, i'm posting it up.

That day my mom came into my room and we had one of those heart-to-heart chats we normally had and she told me that she came across an article that day that caused her to cry. It was about this 10 year old austic boy in singapore...he had long hair and his parents were divorced and he lived with his mother. They were very poor and the boy will always ask people for food(he dosen't beg)....hence, the neighbours living around the area knows him and call him ah boy.

His mother suffers from depression and many at times, she will lock her son out of the house and so, the boy will end up sleeping downstairs during the night. He will also prepare food and place it at the entrance of the door of his house for his mother to eat. one fine day as usual, the boy was locked out and so, he slept downstairs and this was brought to the police attention. So the police came to take a look and beng scared of the police, he ran away from the police and next thing that happened was, he fell off the building while running away from the police and was found dead.

Why does his life have to end this way? It was the question i ask myself the day my mom told me, and now as i post it up, its the question i'm asking myself again today. Nonetheless, i do believe he's in heaven with God.

Hope this reminds you to treasure your loved ones as life is really precious and fragile as well.

Poem

looking not at the situations before me
nor those that are ahead.
but focusing my eyes on you Lord
is what i should be doing instead.
forgetting what was and letting go of the past.
you're my hope and future
and all that i'll ever ask.

I've decided to raise the bar of friendship.
I will not make commitments to just simply anyone
but yet to those i commit,
i will give my all.
That's the way it should be.
I will let go of friendship that are not meant to be
and treasure those who have stuck with me
and can accept me for who i am.
This is not a barrier of friendship i am building,
but simply, to focus my attention on those
who i love and truly loves me.

quotes

Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen. -albert einstein-

Can anyone tell me what this means?

random post

My world had always been simple. I just had this simple wish that everyone in the world will be as happy as I am.

Simple as my wish was, I knew it was unachievable.
Cause there are ppl who don't know what it means to feel 'contented', ppl who are suffering daily due to poverty, and finally, the reason of reasons is because God is not in their lives.

I really start to wonder, at which point did my world start to get so complicated.
Maybe that's why I told myself, I will not work for companies and corporate firms where blackmail and backstabbing is so common.

I have a rather straightforward and simple mindset. Many times, I do things and say things unknowingly carrying no hurtful intentions. I just say what I feel. But the ironic thing is, I'm sensitive and tend to read too much into things. haha. But even so, I will not bear a grudge.

Well, perhaps you know me better now. haha. anyway, this is just another random post.

A new chapter begins.

I thank God for His constant guidance upon my life. Many ppl asked me what I intended to do after I graduated. I was rather tired of answering that question. Cause the truth is...I don't know. All I knew was, God was taking me a step at a time. Today, I came to what I thought was a rather major conclusion...that I'm not cut out for the business line and probably never will be. I thought I was interested in business...and I was also thinking of studying a business course in uni. But it was only after today, that i knew it was not what I was meant to do. I dream to be an entrepreneur. Its a big dream. and one that requires a whole lot of hard work. I don't even have the drive to see it till fulfillment. But I pray that if God wills, it will be done. Amen.

Graduation.
