Reflections

I believe you all have heard of this song call reflections. I was just listening to it again just now and the lyrics sort of touch my soul. :)


Here is the lyrics :-


Look at me, you may think you see who i really am;
But you'll never know me;
Everyday, is as if i play apart;
Now i see if i wear a mask, i can fool the world; 
But i cannot fool my heart;


Who is that girl i see... 
staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show who i am inside?


I am now in a world where i have to hide my heart and what i  believe in; 
But somehow i will show the world what's inside my heart;
and be loved for who i am!


Who is that girl i see.. staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection someone i dont know?
Must i pretend that i am someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show, who i am inside...?


There's a heart that must be free to fly; 
that burns with a need to know the reason;
why must we all conceal what we think, how we feel...?
Must there be a secret me?
I am forced to HIDE!


I wont pretend that i am someone else for all time;
when will my reflections show who i am inside?...?


Now, tell me how you feel? Honestly, what the lyrics say is so true! Why must we pretend to be someone else? Someone we are not? just so that we can be accepted in the group? so that we are not outdated? so that we will become popular? honestly, this song really remind me that i'm created in God's image and only by his image, which mean, im unique. Which mean each and everyone of us are unique. WHY than do we wanna pretend being someone else? Isnt it scary seeing our reflection and we recognize that it is not us at all? Why are we so afraid of being ourselves? why must we hide what we think and how we feel? honestly, this song really speak courage and reminder into my life. hopefully it did the same to you. :)

Live a little while more

I saw the newspaper just few days ago and a commit suicide case caught my attention. It is sad to see such a young life being taken away just because of the heart break that his girl friend has given him. Sometimes i just dont understand why cant people just try to overcome challenges and struggles in life. Life is never a bed of roses, it has thorns and alot of thorns waiting for you while you're walking through it. Sometimes, i just wonder what makes them to take their own life? It's not like the end of the world. It is just another chapter of your life. Committing suicide is so common now in our society. Did we become a generation that cant stand up for failures and even rejections? These questions kept me wondering for a while after hearing the news. Life is precious. Sometimes, some people wish they could just live a little while more. Live a little while more, to see their son/daughter getting married, live a little while more to see another smile from their family, live a little while more simply just to see another day....


But sometimes, some of us, take for granted for being alive. We blame others and complains when things didnt went the way we want it. Worst still, we blame God for no reason thinking that He is the one who cause this to happen. But think on the positive side, God let this thing to happen for a reason. But sometimes, i do wonder why God allow people to commit suicide? Then suddenly it strike me- God didnt allow them to kill themselves. They all had the decision to decide which road they want to take. But they chose the path that doesnt belong to God. I just thank God that 8 years ago, i did not have the courage and braveness to end my life. I learn that no matter how hard life has been treating me since the day i was born, i also must treasure the life that God has given it to me. Hope is always there for us even if we dont see it. No point ending our life just because we feel there's no way out of it. I just wish these people can be stronger. It really sadden me to see so many commit suicidal. Be a difference and make a difference in other people's life. Dont be so ignorant to the needs of people. Sometimes, just some encouragement words can cheer up a person and kill those negative thoughts inside of them. Instead of judging those people, why cant we lend out a hand and shoulder to be their comforter. 


Some people were saying, being depressed and committing suicide is a stupid act. Yes, indeed is a stupid act to end the life like that. But they totally have no idea how those people were feeling back there. I know how is it to be like the whole world are shut against you, no one to turn to, no one hearing you screams and all you could do is being beaten and tear down slowly and slowly dying on the inside and it drives you to depression. Those people chose to get rid of this feeling by ending their life. There is nothing we can do about. Instead of sitting in front of the computer and scolding them words like stupid and idiots. Why dont we do something to stop this from happening again? 

Arts speak

Hehe.. i was suppose to be studying but again, i feel like blogging. Am thinking i might be addicted to blogging? HAHAHAHA. anyway, back to topic.. ARTS! i aint an art person and either do i know much about arts but today i realize the beauty of arts out of a sudden!


If you realize art knows no national or cultural boundaries. It nurture human spirit and promote universal understanding. When you look at an art piece, you will sort of know what it's trying to portrayed. Every one comes out with a different conclusion and opinion when they look at an art piece.  Art is an universal language. you dont need to talk or write to get the information. Isnt it wonderful? The beauty of arts lay between the eyes of the beholder. :)

These arts are the immortal records of historical events and personalities and representations of various groups and customs and emotions. Drop some comments about what you think of those acts piece.. 

Rainbows

Have you ever stared at the rainbow as long as 10 minutes? How long did you get to see a rainbow before? What comes to you when you sees a rainbow? heart beating fast? amazing? cant believe you just saw a rainbow? hehe.. well, i dunno what comes to you when you sees a rainbow but let me tell you what comes to me when i sees a rainbow.

Rainbow makes me feel loved. it somehow gives me the feeling of 'not being alone'. Even though i may be crying and tears drops might be flowing down slowly but when i look up at the rainbow i find hope and the beauty of life. rainbow can represent many things in our life, and to me, it is the hope and beauty of the world. It amazed me that God is so creative and wonderful because HE somehow knows that we will be blessed and happy to see a rainbow just above our sky. Rainbow was wonderfully made and its beauty beautifies the world and fascinated so many people, even children. When children sees a rainbow, they get so excited and they start jumping around, telling the teachers/parents that they saw a rainbow just now. You can just see how their faces light up and the smile that is on their face! AND suddenly you realize, hey! THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE in God. God is just like the rainbow. Minority recognizes the beauty of rainbow  when they sees it . They only know the existence of a rainbow and it is beautiful. wait, a moment, and think about it..



Isn't it the same with God? Everyone know the existence of God or some refuse to believe that there is a God but anyhow, they just know that there is a God; not knowing the beauty of God and having a relationship with Him. Every time when you feels like giving up, remember the rainbow that beautifies the world. What can be worse? What would be worst? Life is never a bed of roses but if we hold a positive mindset inside of us and by the strength of God, we will be able to stand victoriously on the other side of the mountain. Sometimes, is not about the heartache and pain that you need to endure but seeing a beautiful rainbow on the other side of the mountain. 


And at the end, look what is waiting for you on the other side? Isn't the rainbow more colorful and beautiful. YES! You've won the race and the journey. Every tears, sorrows, and pains doesn't count anymore because you've reach your destination. Indeed a rainbow teaches and helps me to reflect on the journey of my life. Rainbow teaches me to appreciate and love the world and my surroundings again. Rainbow thought me how to think like a child again and be curious about what is install for me for i know GREATER THINGS ARE YET TO COME YET! It is never about the challenges you have to face but it is always about how much can you take it when you're outside at the world where everyone around you is tearing you down to pieces and bits by bits! It is about how much you can ENDURE AND PRESERVER through it! A rainbow never dies and so does God. Look up to Him like how you look up to rainbow; love Him like how you love the rainbow and you will find all you need for He is our comforter, Healer, and Strength. :)
The rainbow will be waiting for you on the other side of the mountain..
