rediscovering eden
Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the bright and morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart
Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours
Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
and watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
I am Yours

WOW I’m bad at this. I broke fast by accident already- ON THE FIRST DAY T______T
I was checking my gmail as usual, and I opened up a notification email from FB as usual, and clicked the link as usual, and THERE YOU HAVE IT I LANDED UP ON FB WITHOUT KNOWING.
I must be more careful in future! The net has been such an integral part of life that consciously not using it is no longer enough. Things that are more “subconscious”, like clicking a link in an email, can still land me on FB XD
Anyway, today’s been pretty good and productive, I guess. I’m packing my table right now. I just had my fruit, and was watching a TV show on channel U at the same time. Basically in the show, they feature a family who’s been through a crisis (in this episode it’s a man with 5 children who lost his wife). So what Quan Yifeng and the other host did is that they cleaned up their house, served them, bought them some things, and gave them a surprise. I only caught a bit of the episode, so the man was talking about how difficult it was to carry on, how he contemplated suicide and everything. So after all the sharing and cleaning up, Quan Yifeng and the other host sat down with him and his family and gave the kids gifts (bags, shoes) and mentioned that no one in the family knew what the youngest kid’s shoe sizes were. Then Quan Yifeng continued to say that as a family they should pay more attention to one another and express their affection in more tangible ways other than, in the case of the father, just working hard everyday to earn money for the family. Then was this touching part where the hosts ask the man, “Do you love your children” and he said yes. Then they asked if he had ever said it before, and he said no. So they asked the children if they would like to hear it and they were nodding vigourously. So the guy mustered up all his couraged and said it and hugged all his kids. It was so sweet! :D And then they also organised dinner for the whole family. They haven’t eaten together for THREE YEARS! D: I was so “awww”-ed out throughout the 10-15min I was watching!
Oh well, reinforces the fact that I AM blessed! :D
I shall go bathe now and hopefully manage to clear my table and do everything by the end of today :D :D :D (before the clock strikes 12 D:)
