For Dad

"Honour your father and mother...that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth."
Ephesians 6:2-3

I am flawed with my imperfections but I know you will never neglect your duties as a father. We've been through countless of rough patches and stinging nettles. I've breached the 5th commandmant upteen times. I've been rebuked by you my whole life. All these negativity makes it seem as if Father's Day itself is a redundant celebration. But, I'm fully aware of the numerous sacrifices you've made for me. How you would scrimp on yourself to make my life any time more luxurious than yours. I thank you for that wholeheartedly, and I'm sorry for the letdowns. All's said and done, its your special day now. Happy father's day, dad.

And to my other father in heaven, it is through Your presence that my insignificant life is made possible. You are a father to all creation and on behalf of mankind, Happy father's day. I would exchange all of me for all of You.



Food for thought : Hypocrisy
A hypocrite is someone who is pretending, who is playing a role to impress others than being real, not living by his convictions and pretending in order to fit in. Now that's deep, something worth pondering over.

Impression

It's been a while. Emerge Conference 2006's Parade of School was a remarkable experience and I'm definitely honoured to have been a part of it. I vividly recall it being a fine and dandy thursday, I had nothing on in my schedule and thus decided to follow Gary for a POS practice held at the stadium. Participating in it was a far cry from being the first on my list. I can safely say that it has been my utmost priviledge to be part of 2006's POS jc cluster and I look forward to being a part of the next year's jc cluster, just that this time, I would sign up on my own accord.

So the block tests are approximately a month from now and let's see what "progress" I have made so far. Apart from math tuition and the pathetic holiday lessons in school, I have been bumming around, getting caught up in the swirls of the World Cup. If you must know, it is the french and the samba magicians that I'm rooting for. I do have a burning question though - Where are the Greeks and Danes? In the previous Euro Cup, the Greeks shocked the soccer world and stole the limelight from the home-ground Portugese . The Danes have a relatively decent footballing history. Apparently, World Cup newbies Australia and the US have managed to qualify for the finals. I would be completely enthralled to see how far they would go.

In a way, I entrusted the public with the opportunity to tag in a civilised and professional manner but as usual, the world is an ugly place. I am not the least offended by personal attacks or snide remarks whatsoever because I know, such have yet to seek salvation. Although I find it hard to fathom how some can run their mouth without linking it to brain cells, I choose to remain indifferent and forgive the dysfunctional and intellectually challenged. You have my utmost sympathy and I hope your endeavours in life are blessed and positive.

Oh and p.s, the next time, perchance we meet, it'll be delightful to know if you've learnt how to differentiate between a fake louis vuitton and the real deal. Its really embarrassing to get some facts wrong on the world wide web, thank god you remained anonymous, I'd be appalled to know the truths behind the masquerade.

May the devil in you subside through the wonders of Him
