Conflicted bunch

we look for signs, but only those that go in line with OUR dreams and OUR desires.

If the sign points in the other direction. even if its right in our faces, we ignore it.

We live, but we detest living.

We die, but then we fear death.

We arrive, but all we want to do is leave.

We hope, but all we have is expectation to fail.

We're such a discontented bunch. Singapore wasn't made from nothing. It came a long way, and yet, we always still think the grass is greener on the other side.

Maybe if we start looking and appreciating the things close to us, close to our hearts, God will open up our horizons, in his own way.

The problem is, we think we know what we want, and what we're meant for, but the truth is, you only truly see and feel when you stop looking through the world's eyes.



In his heart a man plans his course,
but the Lord determines his steps.
- Proverbs 16: 9


A man's steps are directed by the LORD.
How then can anyone understand his own way?
- Proverbs 20:24


Can we ever not be made for the life we're living?

A tiny being living on a planet in this vast universe to which a definite sovereign power has created and watches over every second of our lives.

Are we saying, he made a mistake?

He placed each and everyone of us someplace, somewhere for some kind of purpose we might never understand. But as we push on, pursuing our dreams our goals, our happiness, let us not forget for one moment, that as much as we may never understand, we were made individuals in our individual circumstances, that were in no means a coincidence.

Learning to appreciate and love, starting from the little things.
