Holding on to
Sand slipping past my fingers



I picked up a stone in Shoalwater Bay, at Seahound. At that point of time, it looked a fresh red, and I thought it looked a little bit like a heart shape. It would be cool to pick up a heart shaped stone from a foreign land to give to someone I love, I thought.

Months on, the stone still sits right in front of me. It no longer looks like a heart to me. The red lost to a surer purple gray. What a difference a few months make!

Time is a cruel master. What lengths we go to for more time, more precious moments to create with the ones we love. When it runs out, one is left with the feeling of wanting. Wanting more. More of that light, that warmth one once felt. That smile, that enthusiasm, that spirit.

So short.

What is death? I was thinking about this my hair was dyed by a spinning heating saucer. It is naught. Though we can no longer feel the closeness of those who have left the world, their impact resounds. They live forever in the children. They live forever in our minds. I am beginning to get an understanding of this. One never truly leaves.

Our true purpose is not to live forever, to be great, even to be good. Our true purpose is to leave footprints. To impact others for good. To live a life that has made a difference. To cause others to follow your movement, your cause.

RQ, we will never forget you. And you will live forever in our hearts. Even the tides of time will not be able to wash away what you have taught me - to be the best that I can be, to do the best that we can do.

And now I suddenly have a new comprehension of immortality.

一直很安静



在游览youtube时阴差阳错地看到这个MV。

突然有想去买《仙剑奇侠传》的冲动!刘亦菲!

对你的爱一直很安静

Treasure.

This is one of the few Saturdays that I actually have time to sit down in front my computer to type out a blog entry. It so refreshing to have nothing planned =)

Anyways, I met up with Chee Wee, Zhimin, Chio and Prabhu yesterday for a nice dinner at The .Indulge before we headed for TCC for more coffee shop talk.

It has been so long since we last met! It's interesting to listen to Chee Wee's relationship exploits. Hahas. Hmm.. funny how we are more or less the same eh? I got reminded of the attachments we had at 21SA and 42SAR where he was talking about very much the same thing. LOL! Interesting, interesting.

It seems like everyone more or less has a vision of where they are going forward into with Zhimin taking up an internship at Fullerton and Chee Wee starting school in May. For me, it still feels so far away. LIKE AUGUST! And I really have not much of an idea what to expect from university.

I guess I am just very much a free spirit who takes things as they come rather than over-plan and over-think. Woah, I met this guy at the SPRING Assessment who was saying that he was playing to open an IT consultancy, switch his current course to business, blah blah blah, and it reminded me of this story I read..

THE PARABLE OF THE RICH FOOL

The ground of a certain rich man produced a good crop. He thought to himself, "What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops." Then he said, "This is what I'll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I'll say to myself, 'You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry'".

But God said to him, "You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?"

Again, what will I do with my life?
