Promises.

Ever heard that song called "This I promise you"? ...
a lot of promises is being made around the world at the moment.
Tell me how many of them gets kept?
One? Who knows.
The words "I promise" is as strong as the words such as "I love you" and "I hate you"
It makes people believe, secure, scared, anxious etc. depends on what the promise was about.
Every single person living in this earth has broken a promise at least once in their lifetime.
So if promises were meant to be broken...why have them?
Why do people have to make promises to other people if they can't keep it anyway.
"I promise to love you forever..." First of all, no one lives forever...
And you can't say those words twice in your life. Because you promised him/her forever. You can't have two forevers can you?
You don't say those words unless you mean it, because that person might believe in your promise - which is to be broken, and will suffer from a great amount of pain and grief.
A person said to me once..."you know, they should take the word 'promise' off the dictionary"
You know why? Because someone once promised them that they will alywas love them....and you know how it turned out to be right?
But I knoe a promise that is never meant to be broken, a promise that should be in the dictionary...
A promise that gives promise a meaning...
A promise God made to us...
A promise of salvation and eternal life with him...
So before you make a promise...
Consult the one who knows how to keep their promises..
GOD

Slipped Away

Every after school I sit on the bus. Then I see this little chinese girl stop at her bus stop. Her grandfather is there waiting for her. It made me think about mine. Tears started to build up. Knowing that I could never see mine again. I was 13 when he passed away. I was thousands of miles away from him. They told us his time was near. That he was really sick. I did not understand, or maybe I just didn't want to understand. I never showed my tears though. I remembered how he used to take care of all of us. How he would treat us "taho" and "dirty ice cream" on holidays and weekends. How we all go to church with him. Then it struck me, that there was no time left. I wanted to go back home, but can't. Only my dad did, but he still didn't make it on time. He was gone. I just couldn't believe it. We were in grief. Then there was a poem read at his funeral, saying that we shouldn't grieve and leave it all to God's hands. That now he is free. And I ...

bad memories...galing mag sulat!! haha

To keep it as a secret is not right...to tell another person isn't right either...and to tell you will be the biggest mistake i'll ever make in my life... or is it? So it was around 4 or 5 o'clock in the morning. My eyes were barely open as I listen to my friend talk to me about her shoes. .then it came to me..maybe it was time to tell you. It wouldnt matter what you would think or what you would have to say anymore. I just thought that maybe I should get this over an done with. It wouldn't make a difference. Right? Even if you know, or you dont, you still dont care...So there..it took me around...an hour to decide what i would say...or what I wouldn't.. I finally decided and showed my friend...of all the foolishness I have done in my life...I shouldn't have given it to her. So there...it was done..I couldn't undo it. There was no rewinding...or re-doing...or wishing to turn back time... But...still..u dont care...and that's fine with me...I just wish th...

Things I don't understand.

How Pythagora came up with his theory about right angled triangles... How they counted the number of blood cells in our body... Who came up with all the words.. Who made up the languages... Where does gravity come from... How we think... How we react with things... Who decided how time would be read... How they decided how they would read time... Why some people would spend their whole life looking at the sky, studying the stars... Why they decided to stop bartering and print out some papers and call it "money"... Why people are not contented with what they have... Why it's so hard to tell the truth but so easy to lie... Why we find it easier to get angry than to show care and compassion to a person... Why we have so much time being bored when we have no time to talk and listen to God... Why people can't help it to stereotype another person.. Why we find it hard to forgive when we beg so much to be forgiven... Why we can't all get along... Why does the word "...
