A different Chapter

In life things come and go, and we sometimes we want to turn back the clock, but other times, we just want to quickly hasten our steps to move on to the next page of our lives.

time is a funny thing. It plays tricks on us.

When we need it to go slow, it quickens its pace so much that catching up is never a possibility.

When we just want it to pass quickly, it stops and takes eternity to pass.

But its all in the moment. When you look back, you always wonder:
"How did so much of my life go by without me realising it?"

AH, the irony of life. The discontentment we secretly harbour in our hearts, the fickle-mindedness of humans, the short life and the long days.

Its been a good 3 years since taking that first step into this unknown territory, a year since I graduated. a year since I left the hill to really pursue the lofty dreams.

A good 1 and a half year of waiting, of "waiting behind nothingness".

Never being able to explain what I do with my time, always having to jokingly answer "nothing lor!" when actually, time passes by in a blink and there's never enough time to complete the things I need to complete.

Tomorrow will be a day, insignificant to many, at this point even to me. Its not the day Jesus was born, or independence day, or any other widely celebrated ocassion, but it is an ocassion of some sort and should most probably mark a new chapter in life, if not.. a sub-chapter.

I pray dear Lord, that your wisdom is with us, your blessings overflow, and your grace, abundant. Taking off the lampshades and shining the light through a small room even, is only sufficient by your grace.

In my bones, I know.

Tomorrow won't just be a today or a tomorrow, it'll be a day of reflections and gratitude and looking ahead.

Till tomorrow my friends!
