Where's our home?


Whilst listening to my current favourite song of the season for the 93984203th time; the lyrics just struck me. God can speak through anything! Be it the secular or non-secular things which you listen, watch or read.

Hold on, to me as we go
As we roll down this unfamiliar road
And although this wave is stringing us along
Just know you're not alone
Cause I'm going to make this place your home

Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found

Just know you're not alone
Cause I'm going to make this place your home

The lyrics remind me of how I see myself; going down a road unfamiliar.
How'd I know I'm not alone? He is my "home", my refuge, my fortress.
Settle down, don't be impatient on hearing for His guidance.
Don't listen to the lies of those who think they know best, causing insecurity and fear in the heart.
But at the end of the day, the Lord is always with you.

I know, this post is retarded-ly written. I ain't go no writing mojo for the moment, it's late.

kthxbai.

goodnight.

An old post v2

Another draft in my email. Written when I was interning in TYCO. I'm actually inspired by my past, the spirit and hunger to succeed; where did it go? It's time to wake up!


I had a talk with the product manager of Tyco SEA, It was truly an inspiring and humbling experience indeed.

I had the opportunities to ask on the aspects of success and the relevance of my degree in the market. In the end of the day, its not the matter of the degree, although it does in some ways, but it is a matter of a self driven will to want to learn and improve oneself. The road to success is paved with thorns, but one has to look at what these thorns would do in educating us in being a better prospective person in terms of knowledge and character.

Stop saying and asking things like what can i do? But make an initiative and plan on things that you can actually do. It may sound hard to do but its a sure method of improving oneself.

Another aspect to it would be to plan, regardless of success or failure. To plan is to learn from outcomes, to omit to plan is to plan for un-educative failures. 

Character: Humility and a drive to learn.

Ancora Impora : I'm still learning!

On to the current market, creations are sparse and innovations are slowing down but the new market which is uprising would be the importance of informational technology. Mechatronics. Electronic systems. System and controls. Do you have what it takes to take on the age?

Don't forget also the spiritual aspects of being a highly driven person, God is always there for you! Rely on his strength, submit your plans to Him and with His grace we will always pave the way through. What can your knowledge do in the betterment of humanity or is it glorifying Jesus's name?

An old post

Whilst cleaning my email of the numerous drafts that I have written, I uncovered some writings dated since 2010. I actually have no idea what I was thinking when i wrote it, I still don't understand certain parts of it or the motives of it. haha. Here goes:


The Clock

tick tock tick tock,T
here it goes the hands of the clock,
Irreversible seconds as time flock,
A growing past and a shrinking future,
Merciless is time as it teasingly croaks,
A windy road I used to walk,
Sharp turnings which made my heart scream stop,
Torrents of meaningless suffering as I continued to walk,
The purpose of life I always have sought,
Until I met with the abundance of the grace of God,
Windy roads made straight guided by the Holy Spirit of God,
A purpose that I have sought, returned with eternal hope,
All this from the price paid of the One,
The One whom I call my saviour, my friend, my father and my Lord.

A month, a week, a day,
Oh how fast time fades away,
The day of present becoming a memory of past,
Moments of anguish and of pure bliss,
Moments of entrapment and of enlightenment,
All these, in a cruel cycle, again and again as the sun sets and the moon rises,
Becoming a distant relic carved in the invisible depths of the heart,
A brief candle twas compared to,
An unexpected wind and the final flight departs,
Eternal light or dark,Only God can judge.

Selah

It's the second day of chinese new year, and I'm already feeling mentally and physically drained.

Such a wet towel right? haha. I totally felt like a introvert today, fighting the never ceasing urge to be alone in my room but refused to do so as to join in the festivities of the season. 

I don't know what I was lacking today, but I sure found it again in the Lord.

As I raised my hands in worship alone, His presence overflowed, and I felt alright again.
It's unexplainable, it's almost magical but it ain't no trick.
I don't want to sound like a religious nut but I guess I am if you can't see the view of everything from here. (not in a physical sense)
It's amazing. Purely amazing. 

Funny (Or maybe I'm funny for thinking I can see Him) that I can never get to see how He looks like when I think of Him; There's so many images of Jesus's face all over the media. 

But if there's one thing I can see, it's His smile when I seek Him in my secret place.
I can't explain it but maybe this verse can.

Psalms 91:1-2

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
    will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress,
    my God, in whom I trust.”

That's a wrap

I don't remember what it was like 
To look in your eyes, and feel the love 
Feel no surprise, for it was enough

- What have I done by Joshua Hyslop

Listening to songs whilst sipping a cup of coffee, feeling the urge to write something yet no inspiration comes forth, reminiscing but finally am ready to move on. 

Opening my heart to future possibilities, opening my thoughts to endless fruitful ideas.
Leaving the baggage of the past, accepting them as things that were never meant to be.

To seek self improvement, not for anyone's sake, but for His glory alone. 

“Forget the former things;   
 do not dwell on the past.
 See, I am doing a new thing!    
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. "                   

 -Isaiah 43:18-19

Stopped and looked at myself baffled,
that I found myself in an endless spiral of denial.
