Down The Road

I think I've really forgotten about this page. Really been a long while since I even popped in to see what I've written in the past. Sure, I've been reading the blogs my friends maintain, but just not my own, for some reason. It's not as though I don't wish to pen my thoughts down. I do, but have been putting it off time and again for the last few weeks. In the meantime, I had to content with writing bits and pieces of my thoughts in my handphone and notebook and scraps of paper when I do feel the urge to write. Like recently when I was trying to find songs to lead worship with, and I just wrote some new lyrics out.. Ok, granted, the tune seems similar to a Paul Baloche song (I think). Don't have it with me now (now camped in the library again, typical Sunday for me), so can't really post it up. I may go back and refine it again, depending on my mood (and schedule).. Honestly, when I got my Taylor, I thought about song writing on a regular basis.. nowadays, I hardly have the time to even pen my own thoughts down, let alone write poetry or songs. The down side to being my own "boss", I guess. Am always thinking about how to hit my goals, be it my monthly goals or personal ones that are further down the road.. like affording the downpayment for my own place 5 years from now. One of the things I've been thinking about. It's a goal, may be far off for me now, but nevertheless, it's still something I want to aspire to.

Valentine's day just came and went. Nothing much for me. Pretty much just stayed at home and watched some old anime the whole day and then church and some work after that. I try not to work on weekends, but you never know.. when it comes, it comes.. so better grab it. Didn't really wanna head out and see couples out on the street and feel saddened by my current singleton status, and Wayne kinda echoed my line of thought when I asked him after cell on Friday night if he was going out the next day. Heh.. In the end, I believe it's in God's hands. Had an impression in my heart that something may only start at the end of the year in regards to this.. Not really sure what is it or even who it is, all I can do is wait and see. Also I believe that He's telling me again to use the gifts He has given me to serve.. this when I was tempted to leave the cell and find another cos of the frequent cell breaks (had at least 2 periods of long breaks last year). But it may be too selfish on my part to do so.. as my ministry in the cell is to help in praise and worship with my guitars. Have to keep reminding myself of my purpose in life, or at least the part that I know. It's still a long road ahead, but I know that I won't be walking alone down this road.
