Happiness

"Happiness, for a culture, is more like a vital sign, the temperature and heart rate of a nation. Like all vital signs, it can fluctuate. but like all vital signs, it has a set point, a level to which it strives to return." -- "The Happiness of Pursuit" (TIME)

Hymns

Shepherd of my soul

Shepherd of my soul
I give You full control
Wherever You may lead I will follow
I have made the choice
To listen for Your voice
Wherever You may lead I will go

Be it in a quiet pasture
Or by a gentle stream
The Shepherd of my soul is by my side
Should I face the mighty mountains
Or a valley dark and deep
The Shepherd of my soul will be my guide

Find us faithful

We're pilgrims on the journey
Of the narrow road
And those who've gone before us line the way
Cheering on the faithful, encouraging the weary
Their lives a stirring testament to God's sustaining grace

Surrounded by so a great cloud of witnesses
Let us run the race not only for the prize
But as those who've gone before us
Let us leave to those behind us
The heritage of faithfulness passed on through godly lives

Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
May the fire of our devotion light their way
May the footprints that we leave
Lead them to believe
And the lives we live inspire them to obey
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful

After all our hopes and dreams have come and gone
And our children sift through all we've left behind
May the clues that they discover and the memories they uncover
Become the light that leads them to the road we each must find


Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
May the fire of our devotion light their way
May the footprints that we leave
Lead them to believe
And the lives we live inspire them to obey
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful

Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful

Years and counting

4 years and a half.

So many things happened in this period of time, thank you for entering my life and being there.

I believe God has a plan for the both of us. Right now I pray that I will concentrate and focus on my studies. I will not do anything irrational, rest assure haha!

So many things I want to say, but I will leave it in my heart and somewhere else.

Whether you know it or not, you're the one I like. :)

Particular liking

Everyone will have a particular liking for a person/a thing/an action/etc. at a point of time.
Some likings come and go; some come and stay in your life for a long long time, but eventually leave you; some become a habit that you subconsciously have... but they are part and parcel of life.

I remember how certain events and people who change my life tremendously over the past years. Be it for the better or worse. I always thank them for being a stepping stone in life and most importantly, thank GOD for putting them in my life.

Right now, I probably have a liking for some people and some things and I might be someone's liking or not as well haha. I really hope to be a positive influence to myself and to the people around me.

On a side note, I personally feel that blogging is a good way to relieve my thoughts. After typing, or sometimes ranting, I look back in retrospect and things suddenly aren't as bad as they seem initially. :D of course, I don't have good writing skills, neither am I well-versed in English haha - there might be glaring grammar mistakes or errors in sentencing etc. here and there oops.
