People often say that absence makes the heart grow fonder, but i agree otherwise. The mind is super tricky. It causes temporary memory loss when an object is removed from our sight. With time, one can surprisingly forget certain things.
However, you can never really know how forgotten some things are, until you suddenly bump into them again. Do you get a hazy familiarity or a clear recognition?
How come it's easier for us to miss the people we see everyday and forget about those who were dear to us just because we seldom talk to them anymore? Sad to say, I too am guilty of the charge above. =(
"Absence makes the heart grow fonder" is not an excuse to neglect the friends you love, or to forget about the old just because of the new.
Today is the day! Just drop old friends a simple msg to let them know that they havent been forgotten by you! Everyone needs to be loved, just as everyone should learn to love! =)
A blessed New Year of 2007 to all my dear friends, even to you whom I havent seen in ages!

Although we all made silly mistakes along the way, we remained the four legs of a table, supporting each other and being with each other through our ups and downs. We can choose our friends and spouses but we cant choose our parents or siblings. Whether we like it or not, God has placed each of us in our particular families for a reason. I wouldn't trade my family for the world!
Our trip to Japan was more than the usual holiday trip. It was packed with learning, learning and more learning. Learning wasn't the conventional textbook way, it was through getting on each other's back, yet at the same time show each other how much we love each other. =)
Daddy, thanks for the trip and all that you have done and continue to do for us. Although I find your shoes really hard to fit and walk around in, I tried to wear it all the same. I managed to walk far enough, and comfortably enough =)
It's gonna be hard for all of us to understand each other, since gender differences really cloud out perspectives sometimes. I cant do this on my own, but I know I can, because the Lord is the centre of our family, and the cornerstone of our table =)
Colossians 3. Exactly the verse I needed, and God gave it to me immediately after my first post.
Thanks be to God for always being there to guide, lead and teach us =)

What a girl needs isn't just someone who has everything under control, or rather CLAIMS to have everything under control so as to reassure her. She needs someone who INCLUDES her in his life and lets her into his struggles and problems.
I know it is a sweeping statement to say that all guys have big and overt egos, are self-centred and do things for themselves. Well, yes, girls' egos may be equally big, but covert. Yes we are selfless when facing the ones we love yet selfish when protecting our loved ones.
I'm not saying that girls are super good or better than guys, cos both gals and guys have their flaws. I'm just upset that girls are coined "more emotional" and guys "more rational". Is that an excuse for guys to be insensitive?
Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus. Agree?
Yea, only when I walk around in his shoes can I fully empathise from his perspective. But his shoe size doesn't fit me! My shoe size doesnt fit him either! So how? Each of us wear one side of each other's shoe?
Haha I sound like I'm condemning all guys cos of a bad experience with one guy or something. Relax. I'm not. Not all guys are like that. Haha most guys are though =P
Oh well. It's impossible to change the other person and one shouldnt't hope to either. Either you change yourself and accept the other person, or you just give up altogether. In a marriage, the latter is impossible, since a choice has been made, and commitment given. One has just gotta continue praying for the other and holding onto God's grace.
Although the picture of guys that I've painted above seems so black, there definitely are times when they are super sweet and manage to melt girls' hearts. But is that all? Sweetness and all that "I'm giving you the best" crap. Don't actions speak louder than words? Why do their words seem more convincing then than their actions?!
Haha I'm probably gonna get alota rebuttals from all you guys after my seemingly feministic post =P Haha bring it on =)

Keep dreaming about TY recently, not sure why too. I thought I had forgotten about what happened so long ago.
5 days in Japan and I dreamt of TY THREE times... 3 out of 5, that makes it 60% of the time? Really weird, cos that is the LAST person I would ever want to dream of.
Maybe subconsciously I really dun wanna have conflict with anyone, thus end up dreaming of patching up with that person. Super duper weird. Of all things to blog of in Japan, I blog about TY. Oh well, hope he steers clear of my dreams tonight.
Leaving Kyoto back to Tokyo tmrw afternoon! So fast my Japan trip has reached its midpoint! Im sure the next half of it is gonna get better =)
