been spending alot of time at the arcade. i think i am becoming more like an ah beng, spending money on mindless stuff, wasting time on places like this.
ah beng, in modern days, wears clothes like shirts with jeans, not tucked in and go along with slippers. we can easily identify them by the way they speak, eventhough there are a minority that can speak proper english. even if they can, it is often accompanied by all the $%#^%*$%&..
the society often regard them as the social scumbags but i don't think its quite far to judge them so harshly and yes, especially christians who are suppose to be intoxicated with the love of God.
love, is a powerful to transform someone. love, is the essense of God and love is itself, part of God. it is right to say that God is love, as what it is mentioned in the bible. we are taught to love our neighbour but who do we consider our neighbour? i suppose it can be anyone, in fact everyone around us is a neighbour. naturally, humans are attracted to nice looking chaps and don't mind making frineds with them, but how bout those that are dirty and poor and sick or something along that line? can we still befriend them, or wait for others to have the honor of displaying the sacrificial love we were taught to give? it is written that whatever small things we do for His people, we do it for Him. how many of us can actually see Jesus in strangers like them?
during discussion with my cell group today, we somewhat concluded that our relationship were kinda superficial. to a certain extend, i do agree with that statement. the good thing is this. if people dare to share, they care. its as simple as that. if everyone decided to take the first step to try to get to know one another, the dynamics of that cell will definitely grow. i look forward to the 40 days of community and i know that if we were to feed on God's word and live it out, our cg will be transformed!
the sermon itself made me really think about the past and present friendships that i have with people. if they were to displace me to somewhere else, where i lost contact with everyone, will people be bothered to contact me or couldn't care less? who are the people that i am having a relationship with out of convenience? the answer to all this questions can be very sad. i suppose a majority of my friends are just passerby friendships which like what mich always tell me, come and go.
to my friends out there, especially those in church, i treasure u, alot!! ivan, i have yet to receive an email from u so far. hope to catch up with u real soon and please try to come back for chinese new year or at least church camp ya. i'll be ur bunk mate. :) ~~ORD lo.
actually, come to think of it, i don't wanna ord so soon. as in i am seriously enjoying every part of my NS life so far. the people, the stuff that we do together. it rocks. how can someone detest such a simple lifestyle for 2 years. everyday u wake up, there's people around u to play with, to talk to. homework and exam doesn't exist, stress is something that we can cast it aside cuz we usually take our time to do our work. eventhough the food sucks, we get to order in from wherever cuz our bosses own cars. we read the newspapers and every single article in the company and watch all the latest movies together at the mess cuz we have too much time. y should u complain if u are leading this kinda life?
i love all my man and my fellow specialists. we don't backstab cuz there's no need to do that, unlike the officers. we fool around, get screwed and punished together. we eat together, bathe together, sleep together. by spending time together, i really hope that it won't be just for convenience sake. as in after 2 yrs in the army, i want to bring along all the friendships that were formed. memories aren't enough. imagine after u ORD, no one bothers to sms u or ask u out anymore. that's the sadest thing ever and i don't think i will allow such things from happening.
anyway, i really think that i am a social creature eventhough there are times when i don't like to talk to people and rather stay in solitude. i like to mingle in small groups and tend to shun away from big crowds. i like to have in depth relationship rather than remaining as hi-bye friends. in fact, i don't regard hi-bye friends as friends at all. it is the same as a stranger. i love my friends and sometimes i need to receive a certain amount of love in return. its hard to give without receiving but i suppose that's something that i have to learn. yup, guess its time to sleep now and once again, i love u my friends!!!
