i'd just finished watching this video from daniel's blog...
heh.. yeah, it really does make one feel all warm and fuzzy remembering "good old days"
but it was the sentences at the end regarding what was happening at that time that really caught my heart...
i sometimes do wish things didn't have to change...
that we could have keep on staying the same... having fun and not having to move on to "newer" and "better" things...
but life isn't like that i suppose... and it does kinda sux sometimes...
in an ideal world...
ju liang would be healed and still be with us right now, preparing for vbs...
i wouldn't have to keep on coming back to seremban and what not because of studies...
jane wouldn't have to be in belgium...
clifford and clement wouldn't have to be in australia...
noel would come to church every sunday...
all those canaan people doing their studies overseas would be able to do it in malaysia...
every friday and saturday night would be set aside for dakei...
every sunday afternoon everyone would be able to have lunch together and cendol after that without any worries...
work wouldn't suck...
all the people and friends we meet wouldn't be segregated into church, work, school friends and what not... everybody would know everybody and we'd all be friends...
people wouldn't get sick and die...
we would have fun preparing for church events yet not have to bother being busy at work or trying to get leave...
people wouldn't fail exams and get left behind...
everyone would keep in touch with everybody all the time...
people wouldn't leave to look for "better" churches to go to...
but i suppose... that's life...
it's imperfect... and we struggle against the things we don't like in our life...
i suppose.. it all happens for a reason...
so that when we are done struggling against the night... and we finally lay our heads down to rest...
the morning that comes seems so much better than what we've been struggling against...
so that heaven will really seem like heaven in comparison with this imperfect world we live in...
a place where...
we get to see again those people we miss so dearly now that have gone on before us...
we meet once again with people who are separated from us by distance or circumstance...
we no longer have to struggle with time, and work, and suffering..
staples of this life that we never get used to...
because i believe these imperfections were not supposed to be there in the first place....
and that there IS a place where these things will cease to be...
"He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."
