A Tribute to 2006
A tribute to 2006, want to leave year 2006 with a little souvenir, something for me to recount many years later........though not much time to write blog now, but really miss writing blog. Regular blogging will only starts from the later part of next year, but will pen my thots here whenever time allows...Thoughts written on the last day of year 2006 were especially melancholic. The mind is ill, and the urgency to confide in Him. But the heart is heavy, and the speechless sequence. So overloaded with memories, history is marching in day by day. Soldiers of regret and cruelty of the battlefield are the hindrances to a better life.
Perhaps human has an inclination even before the world was formed, to look at the former things, to grasp the unreality, and the recalcitrance to move on. Time leaves behind a heavy trace; the scraps are scraped and kept in a bottle. As eternity nears, the layers are suffocating. Memories can be recalled, with technology as medium of comfort. The revelry and bereavement are like jewels kept in a musical chest. With a thin strip, or a silver disc, time can be cherished over and over again. The whole world seems within our control in those deceiving moments. Amazing as it seems, the reliving of the past can only be witnessed beyond the boundaries of the reality. And excessive pursuit likens to being drunk with wine, in which is dissipation out of the Will of God.
Yet if there is ever a persistence to understand, one will really come out of it. The laws of nature rule, with our Heavenly Father. The passing moments, are merely appetizers. Sumptuous meal awaits the hungry. The past is gone, and we should look forward to the future, and to savor the present. No matter how beautiful the memories are, it will not come back to us, and we cannot live in it.
It may be good to search for role model; sometimes it offers a tangible aspect of exemplification. The Word cleanses the heart, the music soothes the ache and the rest is really up to us. I have learnt that the confidence to go on is the most beautiful thing that can ever happen. From the joy of merrymaking to the grief of loss, much can be obtained from this journey – Strength.
Though our joy may not be completed by the end of this journey, but with God I will be contented.
Once read an article, really mesmerized by this phrase, “Until you make peace with who you are, you will never be content with what you have.”
In this world there are different dimensions, because of our culture and perception. One person cannot be in the two different places at the same time. The grass always seems greener on the other side. But the above phrase rules. The desire to walk on the other side may not be as gratifying as it seems. Building castle is always easier in the air. When only the sweetest things are expected, the awakening will be outrageous.
I want to walk this precious path without a baggage. We only live once. I want to honour God with every part of myself – from my heart, to my body, to my talents. The confidence to go on does not always come easy, but with God, everything is possible. May my joy be completed, in due season.
