currently still reading Prozac Nation - Elizabeth Wurtzel but i'm gonna finish it soon by next week. the problem with me is that the more i read, the more i identify with the author. feeling more and more of the depressed emotions she experienced. the endless cycle of trying to fill the hole in her empty soul and the excruciating pain of loneliness. sometimes you need to be hit the hard way to know you can't dwell in your own misery for too long.

had a sort of "gathering" again and saw an acquaintance for the last time last night. was quite sad that she left this world at such a tender age. i wish i knew her better... but i'll remember her in a special way as she was a very unique girl. the consolation is that she has returned to see the Lord. :)

just been a little dazed. a little more than a little tired. however, and most importantly, the realisation that singlehood can be enjoyable. you can meet different people and have fun without being incessantly questioned if for any reason at all, the meeting wasn't deemed as some pure, innocent get-together when really it was. anyways, i am still firm about my stand. :) perhaps for now, whatever it takes? ;p

Acquaintances with Benefits

When I was young (in upper primary), my birthday wishes were similar.  It was to have many friends.  That could be due to the fact that I am an only child and may feel lonely at times.  Thanks to my best friends (you know who you are), I seldom feel lonely.  I can easily identify who my best friends are.  They are people I would ask for opinions on important decisions I have to make, meet relatively regularly (at least bimonthly, quarterly) for chit-chat and my life would have been very different without them. According to Robin Dunbar , in order to maintain stable social relationships where an individual knows who each person is, and how each person relates to every other person.  Friends are essentially different from acquaintances.  Acquaintances are typically: #1. People whom you may have only met a few times at an event/function; #2. Classmates/schoolmates/coursemates you have encountered casually; #...

Personal Perspective on CHC Fiasco

My personal perspective on the City Harvest Church fiasco: #1. God is omnipresent (present everywhere), omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing) and God knew about this episode. I believe God is watching.; #2. The CAD does not charge without concrete evidence (they have taken sufficient time to investigate - 2 years). May justice prevail.; #3. It is unavoidable for members of the public with little information about Christianity to judge.  It is also one of my weaknesses to be quick to judge/form negative impression about others, which is unhealthy.; #4. I believe to a certain extent, the message of giving and tithing is relatively strong in City Harvest Church - I may be wrong.  (fyi, I have visited the church a couple of times) My personal belief is that it is important to give to God because God is the creator of everything that exists. He owns everything and we are simply stewards of what we have been entrusted with.  Though I h...

Outlier

It is always amazing meeting outliers. One who respectfully defies what ageing means in recent decades.  It is awesome to encounter a senior (almost twice my age) who is fitter than me. So inspiring! She embodies the example of good stewardship and living well in the last trimester of life 🧓🏻💛
