I'm back! Home sweet home that is. Yea, if you wanna know where I've been for the past two days, I've been to the East to celebrate my birthday in a grand chalet room. And today, my family and I checked out of the room and returned home and now I'm blogging my memories away. The celebration was superb. It's a "once in a lifetime" kind of party and I don't get that very often in my entire life. This year was kind of different as not only it's my 21st birthday, but it's also a celebration of my recovery from Lymphoma. The party was excellent and everybody enjoyed themselves - my friends, cell group mates, relatives and parents.. well, including me.
Oh yes, by the way, I've received many presents. And to tell you the truth this birthday of mine is the only birthday which I actually received many great presents from my friends and relatives. Okay... here's what I've got: 1 Study Bible, 1 Sony Ericsson K700i mobile phone, 1 T-shirt, 2 silver pens, 1 self-help book, a few cards, some red packets and many blessings. To me, I really appreciate the gifts I received this year. Thank you people! Thank you for all of your wonderful and meaningful gifts. I love you guyz out there.
And one more thing is that... I wanna thank my friends & cell group mates, who were present that evening, who actually prayed over me. And one thing I should say that is.. I'm sorry that I couldn't afford to reveal my birthday wish as I wanted it to be a secret cuz I believe it'll come true that way. Hope it does...
Well, there're some other wishes that I can share and maybe pray about as well. Firstly, my health. I want to recover completely and smoothly without any further relapse. I still wanna live to finish my work here on earth and to share my life with someone special who's yet to come, I hope. Only and until then... I will not give up like that. Secondly, my walk with God. Certainly, this wish is something that last till I get to eternity. Because walking with God is something eternal and it has ups and downs, just like a bus ride. And I really hope that no matter what, I'll not give up on God entirely just like what I used to do when hurts get in the way and troubles seem so much to take. I pray that I could be stronger to face the waves and icebergs. Thirdly, my family. I want them to be blessed in all ways. And I will not rest regarding their salvation. I pray God will be able to use me in many great ways. Forthly, my vision. I want to move on in life. Although I may recall the past every now and then and feel kind of sad, I never fail to put them aside and focus on my vision and foresight. I believe everyone goes through this in one way or another because we are all humans and we all have emotions. However, the bible tell us that despite of all this, we have to have a vision or else, we'll never move ahead. In the end, we'll end up brooding over our past. So I want a crystal clear vision this birthday and pray that God will supply me with whatever I need to fulfill my dreams.
Last, but not least... that night after the party was over, before I turned in to sleep, I opened my gifts one by one and I felt touched by such sincerity of my friends out there (you know who you are). The gifts were great and I had all that I ever wanted. However, I couldn't help but felt that this time, something was still missing...
... and that desire, I can't simply put it into words and I simply don't know how. But I'll be glad if somebody understands...
