Okay, Guess that Wasn't So Bad.

And i thought i'd be really sad when the latest batch of OCTs got commissioned. Oh yea, could've been there at the parade square with my parents pinning up that bar on my shoulders but guess it's not meant to be. Well it's not as if i've not been thru this feeling of regret, it's just that ever since the previous one, i thought i'm all braced up for this one.

I guess God dealt with my heart that night as i drown myself with "might-have-beens". It's quite an ordeal but hey, isn't life all about that? (Especially for people who reflect a lot.) Shattered dreams, longings of the heart denied, having hope dangle on a string, it's what makes life kinda interesting and worth thinking about. But we all got to learn how to pick up the pieces and move on don't we? And there's no greater joy than to move on with Someone who cares and comfort you in times like that.

Yea, He sure gives and takes away but He will also never fail to make everything beautiful in His time.

"The infathomable sadness of the "might have been!" God never opens doors that have been closed. He opens other doors, but He reminds us that there are doors which we have shut, doors which need never have been shut, imaginations which need never have been sullied. Never be afraid when God brings back the past. Let memory have its way. It is a minister of God with its rebuke and chastisement and sorrow. God will turn the "might have been" into a wonderful culture for the future" - Oswald Chambles (in, My Utmost for His Highest)
