walking the memory lane

listening to: eln attempting to play guitar with her sore fingers.
mood: sentimental


a while ago we were clicking through old photo albums. clicking? well, yeah, no more pages to flip nowadays, thanks to the ever-developing technology that allows people to keep memories not on printed sheets of glossy paper anymore but in the form of bytes in harddrives. anyways, we spent about one good sentimental hour revisiting past places and events, reminiscing sorely missed togetherness, laughing at wacky videos and ridiculous snapshots.

damn, i want those moments again! the responsibilities that came along with entering the marketplace as an employed someone as well as the amount of dedication i put into my ministry lately have robbed me of some time with my precious melburnians. are we not a family altar? why is it so difficult to enjoy moments with my own so-called family?

it wouldn't be a mere coincidence, would it, that today i went to the second service, where Om Djohan preached about living for God and for others? well, what good would it be you if live for God but you treat others as if they're unsignificant? yet, wanting to do all these things i know i am supposed to do, makes me yearn for 36 hours in a day! ...then it became clear to me that it does need some sacrifices, doesn't it? JC sacrificed Himself for us coz He loves us. i won't be able to do the same (yet) but i do love you guys (to some extent :p), all i have to do is to follow in His footsteps and ask God help me!

short-term resolution: making more moments together coz i do care


xoxo, allie
