Hopes & Faith

Note: this was originally a draft from last night..Monday was dry. no rain no clouds. Weird thing is just as I wanna post this entry today, it started pouring like nobody's business. How nice.

Anyways the inspiration for this entry is my good bro, shundeng (sd). After readin his blog, I just had to write something..

He talked about religion, about people's tendency to blow things outta proportion. Blind faith. Closed ideas. I wouldn't agree/disagree with what he said. Well i ain't some superwoman, so I don't really know who's God and whether his son can really walk on waters.
Because of this lack of knowledge, it's not very apt for me to point at whoever's followers.. LAUGH in their faces.. and say their faith is total crap. But I know for sure that hope bearers exist in many forms. Like I told sd, hope can come from the smile of a baby girl to the dew on a morning plant. It can be as simple as having a nice hot drink on a chilly night, or as tangible as winning a trophy.

Hope is what drives us on when things get rough and challenges seem insurmountable.. and its existence is something I'm very much thankful for. Cos' it got me through the dark times. darkest of which was when i had a love... but died.

I didn't mention that to anyone for a long time when the unfortunate incident happened.. except for my cousin who's his best friend. He had been the one to break the news to me. As much as I'd like for the memories to disappear forever, I've to admit the slight stirrings in my heart as I read sd's blog.. about how a simple flash file about a soppy love story could move one to drop a tear or two. But I digress. If I were to tell this story now my entry'll stretch longer than the Great Wall, so I shall end here. Remember to keep a lookout for hope n its bearers.. :)
