Rewind the Pendulum
“A chain of memories string together intertwined,
at present everything and all things seemed sweet and fine.
Lives return to struggles and pain,
only to make us stronger and better day by day.
Ten years the last we met,
finally memories flood and laughter resound
bringing us realization and recollection,
to the days where we had no qualms”~Reuben’s thoughts~
Technology is awesome.
If I hadn’t started an account with facebook,
I doubt I’d ever establish contact with Josiah and Jeremiah.
Those 2 are one of the good pals I had back in AMKMC days.
And it was darn awesome just catching up on old times.Memories flooded and laughter followed,
as we recount many church camps and events that happened a decade ago.
Over at Coffee Club Express at Takashimaya,
I was with friends who I’ve not seen for ages, and yet they look exactly the same 10 years back.
Maybe it was some kind of magic, maybe it was just us.
But whatever it was, it definitely felt warm just catching up with them.
I’m not in this picture, but this brings back dozens of memories
Is it that difficult to forget stress and work and just enjoy the company of your other half?
Perhaps it is…
especially when one is working in a high stress work place,
with bad politics, sadistic people and a huge underpay.
But none the less,
It feels even more miserable to be dis empowered,
when my presence is not enough to bring a smile to the face of my loved one.In such situations very random and pessimistic thoughts run through my brain.
Sometimes doubting the very things that I had complete confidence in.
However when I recall the little things she says or does,
then I remember that perhaps yes its true,
that she really deeply loves me the way I love her too.If only life was like a typical love story,
without all the stress, hardships and doubts.
But then again without the things that crush us,
how else can we withstand the more devastating things before us?
