| 最近發現,自己人越大,愛得越膚淺越自私。 如果我可以常常記得這個世界上有比自己更重要的東西,是否就能活得更自由更隨心一點呢?
"Death is peaceful, easy; Life is harder"
------------------ ~Grown-Up Christmas List~
Do you remember me? I sat upon your knee I wrote to you with childhood fantasies Well, I'm all grown-up now Can you still help somehow? I'm not a child, but my heart still can dream
So here's my lifelong wish My grown-up Christmas list Not for myself, but for a world in need
No more lives torn apart That wars would never start And time would heal all hearts Every man would have a friend That right would always win And love would never end This is my grown-up Christmas list
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth? Maybe only in that blind belief can we ever find the truth
This is my grown-up Christmas list

| Recently a friend of mine sent me a song - "The Time of My Life" by David Cook. It's a great song, really. There is something about positive songs that catches my ears - song that urges people not to give up, that your dreams can come true, that you too can be someone extraordinary. It is my believe that there is a soul craving within each and everyone of us. We crave something extraordinary out of our routine life; we crave to be a hero, be loved, and be important; we crave something "larger than life". It is also my believe that when we look inside and look up, we will find everything we need to be that extraordinary person we wanted to be. | | |
| Today I went to a beauty salon and did a facial. I was so amused by a woman who works there coz in the 2.5 hrs that I was there, she never missed a single minute or chance to complain about something. Amazing. No wonder her life and her looks are so miserable. She practically spoke it into existence.
Summer is half gone, and most of my activities were surrounding work and Mr. M. It has been very fun to meet people in the Sheriff's lab but well.......Some of them had been there for more than 20 years. I can't help but ask myself "Do I wanna be like them?" The answer is so complicated that even I don't know what I meant. On one hand I admire them serving the community, on the other hand I don't wanna get tied down to a job - there are so many many many things to explore in life, like the 87% of the world that I haven't been to.
Some people has been asking me where would I be after this December. Well..... the answer is I DON'T KNOW! You'll know when I know I guess. So stop asking me :) I would really appreciate it.

| Ok....Maybe I am really really outdated.
I met up with a friend couple weeks ago, he told me that Edison Chan, a Hong Kong artist who had created such a buzz in worldwide news have become a christian. I finally have time to read up the whole story today. My primary and first reaction is : Thank God! Thank God that He has such grace and mercy coz seriously, I don't think I am any how better off than Edison. I must say I really admire his courage - the courage to admit he was wrong, the courage to say sorry, and the courage to take on a new direction, new life, new habits.
My path of life crossed with Jaeson Ma's 2+ years ago. Today, we took on a totally different path; yet I am thankful that our path had crossed. He has shown me what radical revolutionary means, and that Jesus is a revolutionary that have so much love and forgiveness that I cannot understand.
Then I realize...it is me who cannot forgive myself, not Him. | | |
| Tonight we had our last element service....What a year. What an important and amazing year.
There are so many things that I wanted to say, but well....I'm gonna leave the good stuff til next friday. I think I'll get some air time as a graduating student right??
------------------------ Life has been really exciting lately not because of me graduating, but I get in bed every night and can't help feeling - This is the right thing to do.
Farika.......The race is on! :P Well......You know it's not exactly a race is it? | | |
