True colours. Show me a smile.

Phil Collins - "True Colors":



I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful

You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged
Oh I realize
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness, inside you
Makes you feel so small

And I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow

Show me a smile then
Don't be unhappy, can't remember
When I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
Just call me up
Because you know I'll be there

And I'll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow

God.

God will make a way,
When there seems to be no way
He works in ways, we cannot see
He will make a way for me

He will be my guide,
Hold me closely to His side
He works in ways, we cannot see
He will make a way, He will make a way

Haiti

I'm sure by now, everyone would have heard about the massive destruction in Haiti, caused by the 7.0 magniture earthquake. In summary, the whole country seems to be flattened. Almost every building including hospitals, the UN headquarters, and the presidential palace collapsed, 3 million (one-third of their total population) affected..

My heart just breaks to see all the suffering. It's times like these, that make me wish I was trained medically, so that I could go there and do something. Or that I was working already, so that I could donate to the various charities and the mission teams aiding the situation.

It's really changed my perspective in life. Now I Really know the importance of mission teams; they're the manpower and ones who can really get to the ground zero, and make a direct difference.

I used to casually think, "I should go on a mission trip some time in my life, when I have the finances and time". Now, I'm Determined to go on a mission trip, once I can save up from working full-time, and use my leave towards that. I don't know, maybe it's a very foolish thought, given that I have neither the brawn (strength) to offer, nor medical expertise to be of help, so I don't know if I'll be better off donating the money instead. Anyway, I'll think about it again when the time comes (and of course pray about what I should/can do).

Nostalgia

I was looking through my old photos..lots of photographs that were taken in the recent years..

I realised I've changed in appearance (duh)..in my opinion for the better..haha..and along with the external, were also internal changes..in my character and personality..

A wave of nostalgia and memories hit me..having a really warm fuzzy feeling now lol..like a peace and a joy overflowing in my heart, and that every burden and everything will be all right..

2010 will be my best year yet! :)
