get in tune with my life
HOW DO YOU LIVE YOUR DASH?
I read of a man who stood to speak At a funeral of a friend. He referred to the dates on her tombstone From the beginning... to the end. He noted that first came her date of birth And spoke the following date with tears, But he said what mattered most of all Was the dash between those years (1934 – 1998)
For that dash represents all the time That she spent alive on earth... And now only those who loved her Know what that little line is worth For it matters not, how we live and love And how we spend our dash.
So think about this long and hard... Are there things you’d like to change? For you never know how much time is left, That can still be rearranged. If we could just slow down enough To consider what is true and real, And always try to understand The way other people feel.
And be less quick to anger, And shrew appreciation more And love the people in our lives Like we’ve never loved before. If we treat each other with respect . And more often wear a smile.
Remembering that this special dash, Might only last a little while,
So, when eulogy’s being read, With your life’s actions to rehash... Would you be proud of the things they say About how we spend our dash?
simple yet lovely poem. yet again, we are reminded on how short life is and that our actions and lives are a testimony to others. and the poem says the rest.
busy week with CAs and all. thinking day's coming and with all the singing practices for the rally, my sore throat just got worse. drinking a lot of water already and it ain't helping (rawr, now osmoregulation is flowing thru my head)
CNY this year was good:) yu sheng was the best!! the food is good too. i think i gained weight ><. some of the gen acts peeps and BB boys came over to my house for steamboat and celebrate me bro's b'day on sun night:) had a really good time. after that, i really wanna learn some jazz piano from sheryl, but gotta wait for after o's :(. this girl's gotta study already.
condolences to doraline's family about her deceased grandfather. and jie lizhen gave birth yesterday! congrats!(now can call uncle tommy and aunty lizhen... hehe)
v'day was usual for me, more chocs from friends(getting pimples already:( ) and spending the day with hw etc...( u can guess)
cell debate was fun despite my team losing by 2 marks. anyway, we won overall:D. i was rather brain dead then so i couldn't really focus. sleepy...zzZ went to dora granfather's wake despite tiredness.
I'm staring out into the night,
Trying to hide the pain.
I'm going to the place where love
And feeling good don't ever cost a thing.
And the pain you feel's a different kind of pain.
Well I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old,
So I'm going home.
Well I'm going home.
The miles are getting longer, it seems,
The closer I get to you.
I've not always been the best man or friend for you.
But your love, it makes true.
And I don't know why.
You always seem to give me another try.
Be careful what you wish for,
'Cause you just might get it all.
You just might get it all,
And then some you don't want.
Be careful what you wish for,
'Cause you just might get it all.
You just might get it all, yeah.
* bible verse of the week *
Hebrews 12:11
No discipline seems pleasent at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.
