THE WHITE RABBIT

Gratin something...

tt's all folks...havea blessed week!

When religion plays a big part

Lots have happened...has happened and will happened...and as i was alone in the cab...i just thought of soo much...

and somehow....it all linked back to whatever the bible has taught me.

I may not be the best Christian, nor a model Christian...but the teachings in the bible has taught me so much..whether it's the spiritual aspect,emotional or interpersonal.

I may not be someone tt everyone likes....nor do i live my life trying to please everyone tt comes my way. In reality...there will always be someone who hates u and someone u cannot get along with. I am of no exceptional. and my fren ever sent me 1 sticker on fb tt says "Be who you are and say what you feel,because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind"

and it's so true.good frens love you no matter what you do or say...and when they know tt u love em and mean well....they do not get offended when u give em constructive critiscm.tt's where u know u can be honest and true with each other and even when shit happens,after talking and thrashing things out....there aren't any offense taken.....noone will ever think of revenge.

so why am i blogging dis?because i've come to know of not just 1 issue but 2 issues of similar situation with me being in the picture....and i can only smile as i realised tt the way i'm handling the situation now...is so much different as compared to what i wld have done many many yrs back.of cos..i wld have hoped for situation 2 to improve...since it involves both christians...but well....tt's a tough nut to crack.will let God be the healer of this relationship.i noe..i'm not ready for a good change now anyway.

on the other hand...another relationship has been reconciled!when she called out to me today....i wanted to just give her a big big big hug and cry...but den...i was kinda stunned too.still certain issues tt i have to resolve with her....but i noe..i have to be honest with her as well...and explained bout why things went wrong...and u can expect an apology from me too dear girl.i love you.lots.thk u...for ur unforgiving love.


over the yrs....i've learnt....tt quality matters more than quantity.it's a bonus to have both.

Dear God, thk you for putting me thru such trials and painful experiences...i know tt there is still alot for me to learn..and i pray tt u'll continue to mould me and prune me into who u wan me to become" amen!

WEDNESDAY

and it was meet up with aaron. It was great catching up with him....and how i was able to share how i felt bout a certain issue tt's kinda been bothering me..since goodness knows when...and also to have someone share some radical christian views.....makes me encouraged to know tt i'm not alone!!yeah!!

well..no pics..so i shall talk more.

Aaron's like this good fren and buddy to me..and i've known him and a bunch of other guys since i was 13. It all started when Joanna had no lunch clique after svc on sundays and had to tag along with her bro....tt's where she got to know his peers and because the girls back den weren't tt on and close to us....joanna always ended up the only girl...which led her to play soccer with em after ypm...and thus..making lotsa good frens and buddies.

so....it was catch up time...at Sakae Sushi in Citylink where we 'bumped' into eefoo,chris and glenn.heh...

after tt..i headed home to continue the rest of my Gossip Girl series...so tt i cld go Genting without thinking of the nxt episode.heh..slept at 4am.....and woke up at 9 for Genting.

xoxo,

joanna
