So much for my sad song

  • On a Saturday night like this, I could have been to the NDPpreview show and would have seen Clara and Shuann whom I miss dearly.
  • On a Saturday night like this, I could have been to the edge and would have been worshipping and serving the One I love.
  • On a Saturday night like this, I could have gone out for a nice meal with the people I miss so much.
  • On this Saturday night, I am lying on my bed, trying to recover from the lethargy in my body accumulated through toiling the long hours of work through the weeks.
  • On this Saturday night, I am afraid that God is pissed with me because I didn't go for service. It feels strange. (Typing it out made me realise how ridiculous this sounds.)
  • On this Saturday night, I am facing my computer trying to finish up the insurmountable amount of unfinished work as quickly as I can.
  • On this Saturday night, I am eating my packed cai fan from the coffeeshop all by myself.
  • On this Saturday night, I am already missing the people who are leaving for Sydney tmr and on monday terribly.
I dislike people who complain about everything and anything. Yet, more often than not, I am one of them. I guess in every situatation, there are always things to be thankful about. A situation is what you make out of it, determined by what you choose to dwell on. (Omgosh, did I just come up with that!? Wow, I'm like teaching myself things.) Okay, let me try reconstructing my post again...
  1. On this Saturday night, I am resting so that I will not fall ill further and be quarrentined for a million years.
  2. On this Saturday night, I remembered that God is not a petty God who grades you on the number of services you attend.
  3. On this Saturday night, I remembered that He loves me and thatHis grace is not to be taken granted for nonetheless.
  4. On this Saturday night, I am clearing my work which would play a part in improving a needy family's situation and that is also being a testimony for Him.
  5. On this Saturday night, I am thankful for the yummy cai fan He has given to me.
  6. On this Saturday night, I can go play the piano and spend quality time with Him which I haven't really found enough time to do so.
  7. On this Saturday night, I watched the beautiful sunset and was reminded by Your greatness and splendor.
  8. On this Saturday night, I am excited for the services tommorow!
In every situation, counting my blessings and not my complains, would make me a happier person. :) - a valuable lesson that I learnt while preparing for a P1 workshop. Adults are such liars. They don't even do it themselves, yet they are teaching it to kids. Haha. Okay stop foongpuisee, CYNICISM NO MORE.
