It is not wat i hope for, but it is just given to me...
i was really speechless abt how touched m i when ppl celebrated bdae for me... it is not the attention, but rather the love i felt from them when they are singing bdae song for me.
Ate 5 birthday cakes (at fish n co, cheryl's bdae party, church wit cg, with family then pcf).
First with the cg- the thing that really make me wonder is that y are they willing to spend so much effort and money when we had not really noe each other well? We had just change cg, just met up once everywk, dun really interact much as well..i guess it's the love of Christ ba. It was so nice when i can cut cake with my friends who have their birthdays close to mine, esp Wt n Cheng Hui. hahahas.
My family-No matter how much i insisted on not buying a cake, my brohter bought one... . i was quite angry intially, but tot that i was so foolish to be angry...so i broke up laughing after a few second when Cliff bought in a mini $3.20 cake. hahahs...my mum say going recession soon is it? even cakes have to be shrunk so much in size. but it's the tots that counts ultimately(:
PCF- this bunch of monsters just make me wanna laugh and cry at the same time. It started out when we were having PCF retreat at my staff worker(Angeline) hse, than after lunch, THREE of them went just to buy BATTERIES. i told them dun buy cakes for me and they were like:'no lah, we just going to buy batteries meh'. Fine! when they came back, they really bought batteries only. hahahs..so mula
but in the end, they popped by at my doorsteps with cake, presents and guitar singing bdae song for me at 8pm plus...thanks monsters!
I just wanna say that the love my friends and family had displayed for me has shaken me awake...that the thing i should treasure is not money, not results nor my reputations.. it is the lives of those who are close to me. All those might be an insignificant effort from them, but it is just so enough make me realise that i'm being loved... So isn't making ppl happy with so little effort much more impt that other things?
Shalom in me(-.-)
