CNY Day 2

More chatting, more lively discussions, more catching up. I really do wish I have more chances to talk to my cousins and nieces, some of whom I still haven't got to know very well, even now.

Regardless, it was a good, even though I was feeling really tired.

It's weird, if you think about it, about how the younger generations are much closer to their friends than to their own relatives. Well, it's not that surprising, if you think about it, since we see our friends more than we see our relatives (school, hanging out, etc.), but it does make one think, doesn't it?

Read Gideon's FB post on a counsellor's remark in the movie Courageous. It was really interesting. Here's the quote:

""I heard many people say, they’ve lost a loved one, that in some ways, it’s like learning to live with an amputation, you do heal, but you are never the same. But I would also say, that those who go through this and trust in the Lord, go through a comfort and intimacy with the Lord that most people never experience.”


:) Indeed!

Back to work tomorrow, and I really think I'm gonna miss seeing my relatives. How time flies. From feeling bored of such gatherings, to really missing them...

Maybe age is really catching up...haha...
