the day as it is...drifting thoughts..

hmm...the monotony of work can sure make a boy as dull as jack.

highlight of the day?
A 4-course meal..ok..it was a very very lazy 4 types of dish meal. :P.. so simple ppl will shoot me if i listed them down..

the world around me is getting colder, my heater is on 24/7, its not as cold as NZ or Russia but still its cold enough for me..its going to be a dreaded walk from work everyday soon..all 17minutes walk..and so my winter gear is coming out of the closet.. and one lonely scarf is finally going to make its debut ;)

..drifting thoughts...

the strings attached to life..
sometimes it feels life is like living a puppet's life..controlled by a puppeteer..yet not a person that controls but rather circumstances in life...strings from the past, pulling me back (regrets, decisions which affect the present, contemplating the what ifs)...strings from the future (worries on achieving career goals, lifestyle, where to go?, what can I do?, is life going to be the inevitable rat race?), pulling me forward...sometimes i do feel im being thorned to shreds.

Yet, while God's peace has always been there, metaphorically as the knife to cut this strings that bind me(sharpen and ready), letting go and cutting loose to live in the present is sometimes a struggle...

Being a child of God, a God of love, mercy and strength has given me an assurance that in our weakness, He'll not ditch us but shine through us for his glory. Poetic, sublime, Victorious.

A verse of assurance: Psalm 23: 4
Even when I walk through the dark valley of death, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me.

ahh...thank you Lord =)

ahh...loving it..after a long day at the office =)

on to Guy Fawkes and the Bon Fire and Fireworks Display on Saturday.

Brief Background:
It all started in 1605 when Guy Fawkes was caught trying to blow up the House of Parliament, want to kill the King la.. in protest of negative treatment towards the Catholics. On the very night the Gunpowder Plot was foiled, November 5th, 1605, bonfires were set alight to celebrate the safety of the King. Since then November 5th was known as Bonfire Night.

In Witham though it was held yesterday.. should be because of school going children hehe...There was a life band, children rides and food! But the highlight was of course the Bonfire and the Fireworks.

On a cold day, the Bonfire was just very pleasant. Pics Below!!

Not clear but some guys setting up the fire

Bonfire in its glory..lol..ahh nice and warm

Half an hr passed and the fireworks began. could not take the best pictures but 1 pic would do no harm. :)

and in this picture if u strain ur eyes towards the bottom right hand corner u could see bunny ears. thats another highlight of the night..they're everywhere..geared with glow in the dark wrist bands and blinking accesories. lol..

ahh...all in all it does have a romantic feel to it..perfect for a short romantic experience.. hehe..okie..signing out ..be blessed all my peng you :)

something struck me!

i wanna be a SUPERSTAR!!..the glitz and glamour *bling bling*, flashy cars, humongous mansions, clicking cameras...woo! woo!...lol..

okok..serious back down to earth 'me' thinks life is worth more than that... =) okok..i admit boring abit. hehe..

today's sharing in church struck me today, its from the passage of 2 Peter 1: 3-11

towards a godly life..

The verse that really stood out to me was from verse 5-7
For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love.

earlier,
2 Peter 1: 2 says:
Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord

By faith, the promise of grace and peace is given.

With these gifts, we are to add goodness, knowledge, self control, perseverance, godliness, mutual affection and finally love.

hmm...what i come to understand is in living a godly life, to add these characters of strength into our lives require peace and grace that can only be received by faith.

a tough act to follow:
Knowledge of being Christ like and the self control to practice it n persevere in practicing it..hmm..only by God's strengh..
