Enlightening conversations

Camping season is over... time to just relax and enjoy every bit of the hols. :) have already been doing so... heehee....

shopping with friends, playing tennis, chilling out at friend's house, enjoying the companionship of friends, having finger aches after xbox games, playing badminton, bowling, supper with friends and coffee sessions with my dear sisters... etc

To think of the stuff that i do, i'm really grateful that i have friends to share all these activities with. Also, the ability to do them. i treasure these times...

Talked to a few people over the week and the conversations have been enlightening and sobering. Hearing people's life stories, jokes, encounters and tots are interesting. It really broadens my perspective of life. From these sessions, i've learned.

I tot i have met the weirdest pple on earth but apparently not. Someone beats me to that. haha... but hearing her experiences, i realised that we really need love and patience to reach out to pple who are not the same as ourselves. It's often our human tendency to take the easy way out and just hang out with pple whom we are comfortable with. However, it may not be the most christian way as well... i still lack in this. God help me!

I recall the talks some of us had with ms and even from them, i've learnt! Hm... cool eh... it's amazing how we learn from each other and encourage one another.

Also, just this morning, while hearing her sad story of a confused relationship, it triggered me to think abt life and how different people are in terms of their mindsets and behaviors. It's usually quite rare to find 2 identical persons on earth. Matters of the heart are mind blogging... and it's draining as well. My heart went out to her when i heard the story. She said: "when you have someone in your heart already, it's hard to open yourself up to other options". So true!

had a coffee session with some sisters today. haha.. we had fun recalling our youth days, the stuff we did and talked abt people. it's very much a girly gathering in which we just talk and talk and talk... haha... even talked abt companionship and life partners as usual. realised that a few of us feel the same way. But we are still trusting God in this matter. :P it was a fabulous time just chilling out with a group of like-minded people. at least, got some frequency. hehe...

All in all, i'm thankful for these wonderful sharings of experiences, which makes me grow and appreciate the people and surroundings more. Thank God i have HIM in my life! He puts everything back in perspective!

Wow.. this must be the longest entry i have created. hehe... but it's a few days thing. Still have more to write but i shant cramp everything in 1 entry.
