well. i'm actually quite happy. haha, free, see. when you don't really go and bother about the crap(totally agree with ben on this) that people give. i'm happy. but tonight, i'm here, not to crap about my feelings within or whatsoever, but to talk about treasuring the small things.
lemmie pop you a question, how many times do you wake up and thank God that you're alive? haha, well, i seem to be guilty of this too. but well, the thing is this. that sometimes, we overlook all the small things and just bother about the big ones, and complain, "argh, i'm not like this other guy." or "God, why is my life so sad? why am i not as rich as that other guy. why am i not as good looking."
well, i think that we should be more appreciative of the small things that God has already given to us. like the ability to survive thru a day, or enough money to last you for every meal that you need, or enough clothes to wear, a place to stay, people to talk to. instead of complaining about the things that we don't have, or the things that we want. when we know that we have all that we need. thank God for them.
so here's my thanksgiving for the people around me once again.
to my brothers, in the cell(Ben, Keith, Melvin, Ivan and Anthony): well, truth be told, i really appreciate all the things that you've done for me, the advices, the birthday cakes, even the lectures and the tolerance of my lameness. truthfully speaking, you guys have seen me thru and helped me change so much that i don't even have the words to describe it. really, a big thanks to you all, and sorry for what you all perceive as my "nonsense".
to AhPa RongHui: so, truth be told, you should have been included in the portion above, but well. i decided against that thought. thanks for everything too, well, even though i haven't been that great of a spiritual son. i still want to thank you for trying to understand me and hear me out whenever i give you problems. well, i don't think i got anything else to say. =)
to Jasper, verse-sworn brother, a loyal brethren, and General: well. it has to come to this again. haha. thanks bro, for standing with me when it seems that no one else would. you've shown me loyalty and support at it's most extreme(in my percention). i don't think anyone else can be such a brother as you are to me. thanks bro.
to Wayne, Shiroi-des: thanks for all the bleach and even the lecture. lol. well, it is a joy to always have someone to accompany until jurong east everytime we have an outing. haha.
and finally, saving the best for last, to Amelia: a great thanks to you. i don't think anyone else can understand me the way you do other than God. well, thank you, for assuring me that you will walk this journey with me, for all the kind words of support and encouragement. for the care and concern. well, you truly are a blessing to me in my life. both blessing, and joy. thank God for you.
