Another year has passed. The end of the year has always been special as it serves as the time to look back at my ups and downs throughout the year; to evaluate what has happened that changed the direction of my life.2008, a colorful year for me. Why do I say that? What's the difference between 2008 and all the previous ones? In 2008 I wrote my first blog :)
Before 2008, my world reflected no light, was completely dark, and sorrow filled my days. I was not able to face the reality. Some things drove me insane. It was even hard for me to sleep; the only thing I could do was just cyring until my eyes look like those of panda's.
I couldn't stand it; I felt like I didn't want to continue living... until Ms.Bless prayed for me, Mr.Mario Teguh talked on TV, my friends stood by me, and the best part was that God gave me strength and taught me to be a better person. He never gives temptations that are tougher than what we can deal with. I read this quote from my friend Cho, "What does not defeat you only makes you stronger."Although it happened before 2008, it has become a burden for my present. Everyday I pray and struggle to make peace with my past. One book I read said that, "Your past does not define your future." Have you ever heard someone said, "I can't believe it, there's no way (s)he can do that!" Well, in reality, someone good can turn bad and vice versa. It all depends on your choices at the present times to make your future days better.
Happy New Year 2009!
