..looking back before i set off.. :}

“The butterfly counts not months but moments,
and has time enough.”

–Rabindranath Tagore

..today is january 18 and the year is 2012. what you’re reading right now is my first attempt at a blog.. :}  i’m really not into writing much these days but my creative juices are  really that overflowing (or im just trying to lift my own chair :p)… what i really long for right now is a lengthy sleep  and meaty conversation with Aidy, and not this task of typing down words as if i’m talking to the monitor (just kidding-truth is i'm very excited to start this one) so ehem.. i've been drafting my first post on this page and i can say that it is definitely hard to draw a line between being “artistic” and just simply portraying real life.. but i'll try to   :}  -------------------------> 

..there are so many memorable days in our lives-- most of them are simple events yet they remain in our hearts--and that i think what makes them memorable.. :} when i was much much younger, my father used to tell us bedtime stories.. stories that he learned from school but most of them (i just realized) were his own creations.. i can hardly forget the meaty word he left us every time he ended each stories.. and though i was sleepy enough to hear them, because he was convincing, i listened to the promises of protection and security he wanted to give us..

he said...
 
The \good warrior never forgets the old saying:
The good little goat doesn't bleat.

Injustices happen. Everyone finds themselves in situations they do not deserve, usually when they are unable to defend themselves. Defeat often knocks at the Warrior's door.

At such times, she remains silent. she does not waste energy on words, because they can do nothing. she knows it is best to use her strength to resist and have patience, knowing that Someone is watching, Someone who saw the unnecessary suffering and who will not accept it.

That Someone gives her what she most needs: time.
Sooner or later, everything will once more work in her favor..for her own good..

"a real warrior is wise; she does not talk about her defeats.. Leonardo  
 
I know i'm quite appreciative of my father.. i always tell heroic stuff about him. 
but what can i do, everywhere i turn, i see my fathers goodness and gentleness..
if an earthly father could be this great, how much more is our heavenly Father? 
the Scripture tells us God is sovereign.
this means that He is above all others in importance and rank. 
and because He is the sovereign God of the universe, His promises are certain.
There is no being or force in the universe that is able to keep Him from carrying out His plans.
If we can entrust or lives to human, we should all the more entrust them (our lives that is) to God..
