I can't believe it!!
I am hitting the second chapter of my life, age 20 in like 6 months plus. Looking back to times when we are still in primary to secondary to the times when we have just graduated and just started Poly life. We are still so young and immature then.
Now, friends around are getting married or attached. I feel older day by day. I really have no idea what's next. Friends around are entering parenthood? I'm sure it is not long from now.
I have got to be mentally prepared to attend wedding dinners, celebration of the baby's first month. After which, our hair will turn grey, grandchildren will come to greet this materialistic and selfish world. The world will then be conquered by the next generation.
We, the older generation will then wave goodbye and be settled in a place where there is only joy and celebration. No tears, No hurts, No evilness... A place so beautiful surrounded by Angels.
Now I know why people always say Youth won't stay long. I begin to know the importance of youthfulness as it will be gone before we realise it. I treasure my days more then usual.
I began to think and plan so much ahead to ensure that none of the time is wasted.
Doing things which I will like and never regret, going to places I wished to go and so on. Please don't deprive our youth in such a rapid speed O God...
We are grown ups with our own mentality and beliefs. I wish, really wish, friends will always remains as friends. Buddies will always be buddies. Cousins will be closer. SSG's relationship will forever remains or grow stronger.
Psalm 100:5
For the LORD is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.
My Prayer
In a world of change and undependability, thank you, dear Father, for being sure, steadfast, and faithful. In a time when everyone seems to want something from me or out of me, thank you, dear Father, for repeatedly and consistently blessing me. Thank you for being more enduring than the mountains and more glorious than the most beautiful sunrise.
God, please bless us and the holiday trip in June this year with buddies possible. Father, there is this promise made by SSG that we will celebrate our 21st year in Taiwan. However, there is such a strong feeling inside me that we might not be able to fulfil this promise as we will all be busy with our lives. Even casual meet ups need such a great effort to ensure the presence of all. Sad to say, there is always no full strength for all the meet ups. I pray that You will bless us to stay stronger as time passed, also I pray for meet ups with full strength though it's only once. I fully understand we pursue different routes and time is always a problem. I surrender all relationships onto You, Father. I know, You have Your plans to give us what is the best. Thank you Father for healing all the wounds we left in one another's heart. Scars will always remains but they let us know each other better, treasure each other more, the best of all, brings us closer together. Thank you for everything You have done and planned.
In the name of Jesus I pray,
amen
