Time of LossRecently lost 2 friends around the same time, both at a young age and still have a whole life ahead of them. Both sudden departures. The last time I recalled something similar happening was kelvin, whom I met a few months before his death at a hospital. He was undergoing surgery for a mysterious virus that was attacking his leg.
Asked God why He has a special preference to take away nice ppl, leaving the rest of us behind. Mebbe He really needed them near His throne to praise and worship Him. Much akin to how teachers like to place pleasant looking students within their vision so they feel better, rather than the slightly more irrtating ones who tend to suck their blooda and feed on them. Perhaps that was what He has on His mind. Well, He didn't really answer me so I had to take a shot.
I am sure lots of people will have tons of thoughts in their minds when such things happen. I am just an ordinary soul. First I was upset, than lost and confused. Then I started worrying for people who are upset, lost and confused. Now I just pray for these same people who are upset,lost and confused so that they will not remain like that for long.
It took me quite a while to type this entry. The deaths happened last weekend but I could not really write anything till now. Maybe it is due to this 2day MC I am having that gives me plenty of time to ponder and reflect, in between states of drowsiness and sleep.
Someone said, Live everyday as if it is your last. Will I ever come to a time I may regret I haven't done anything, tried anything, said something that I don't mean, said something that I mean to say but didn't come out the way it meant? Have I been a blessing to the people around me rather than a sheer number in the group?
I say, live life daily meeting Him who created you. Then when you suddenly cross over to the zone of the heavens, you may not even realise it. Still, it's a rather selfish thought as it only makes you yourself feel better, not for the people around you.
If I have been typing crap for the last few paragraphs, do forgive me. I can only say it was under the influence of drugs.
Ironically I had been teaching my kids the proverb: A bad workman always blames his tools.

Happy Birthday to meIf self-worth and esteem were based on the number of smses you receive on your special day, then I'll have to conclude that I do made a slight difference and significance to someone else's life, or to the world in general.
It has been ages since I felt appreciated or remembered, or how good that feeling is. Not that there are no appreciations or affirmations given, just that everyone's been pretty busy and I am learning to cope with teaching in the day and lessons at night. A total tally count gives me 2 available and free weekdays and of course one precious weekend off. It was really nice for someone to take a moment, pause and send a message. I know I may not have done that much since being swept up with work and life in general, but I now know I do need to pass on the goodwill by doing the same. Just one tiny problem...their birthday records! Ironically, I was the i/c for birthday gifts for staff. Big Guy does have a very acute sense of humour.
Originally planned to blog about the night happenings but I guess I'll just briefly bring you through the 'events'.
Dinner was over, cake was eaten, song sung, wishes made. Wandering ended at Marche for some drinks and chat. Laughter, silly jokes, dumb riddles, basic fun entertainment that brings tears to your eyes.
More wandering, which left us short of 2 gals and eventually settled in brix but not for long. Never seen anyone so uncomfortable in a place before so we left. Gal went home w deb and it was really an awkward moment. Did feel bad y she had to leave like that and frustrated at the same time as I really wanted to settle down somewhere for a drink. Felt bad for feeling bad...and it took a while for that to be settled. Ended up at a cafe w the other gals for chat. And I had to msg the gal involved a msg meant for deb who was sending her back. Couldn't believe that I did it. So there...my terribly supposed simple and uneventful night turned out to be a mini-drama in disguise.
Cheerier thoughts: Corrinne May's concert on 12 Feb & service on Sunday.
