All that glitters is not gold.

Meeting you was unexpected, welcome, all at once.
I am nervous, cold and longing, I want to see you physically because it has
       been long, too long.
I miss the angles of your hands and elbows, and your eyebrows and
especially the heavy eyelashes surrounding your eyes
                        like a black telescope’s rim, drawing me in.

REBLOG WITH YOUR FAVORITE BEATLE!

 Paul, he WAS rly cute + british accent. :)

Sweet, sweet liberation.

Its lovely knowing that you no longer have to recite Venetian history in the bus resulting in people staring at you. Its lovely knowing that you no longer think about acids bases salts/polynomials partial fractions the first thing you wake up in the morning. Its lovely knowing that sitting back, relaxing and just breathing is reality.

Anyway, I never could have gone through O’s without my perfect God. Truly, I thank Him that I have drawn closer to Him and have learnt to rely solely on Him. The real joy and peace that resides in my heart is heaven sent and you know, its unexplainable how much comfort and strength I can draw from the Bible, which is supernatural and living. God has been good and gracious :) My deepest desire is that I continue staying close to Him and forming a closer relationship w my Lord. Please don’t revert me to my old sinful ways, when I was dead in my sin. All grace and glory be to God, no one else.

Today was GR8! Had a rly good time w Char and Syl when we made our way to Ikea for our annual ikea swedish meatball bingefest. Hahah that was a mouthful ^^ Love the both of them v v much. Oh yeah, I went to Kino to spend off expiring vouchers and got poetry and a really promising book that is just sitting on my table WAITING to be read. Hahaha you should never give me a Kinokuniya book voucher because I spend hours walking around debating in me head which is the best thing to get because I want everything and everything that is made of paper and printed with black letters in Georgia font.

I ate mythology, and slept.

I am currently reading Ovid’s Metamorphoses which fascinates me immensely. Greek mythology mesmerises I must say and the fluency of its translation make it so understandable and beautiful. What strikes me most is how much it is alike to the Bible. How the earth was formless, without firmament. Fashioned into aethers (Isn’t that such a pretty word?), the skies, the earth, the sea with stars to brighten the sky and the sun to warm the earth etc etc And the falling away of mankind, the flooding of the earth because of human folly and the world wrecked with hatred and blood. How the god flooded the earth instead of destoying it with fire which would melt and crush its very being into nothing. Alike yet not alike. Greek mythology is beautiful, but so lost and sinful. Maybe it was written out of generations of oratorical accounts told of Noah and the Great Flood, of the creation of the Earth by God in the Bible, but distorted and twisted along the way into untruth, while still retaining the essence of stories passed by the generations. Greek mythology to me represents the disbelief and lack of faith of God’s Word, adding on Neptune, Jupiter, Ariadne and countless other idols in hedonistic idolatry etc etc are totally pointless to me anyhow for they don’t tell the truth, they don’t give me joy and peace that the Bible, holy and living grants me. Greek mythology while lyrical, vivid and beautiful represents blindness and men who have lost their way, adding along the way colourful greek gods and goddesses to affirm their unbelief in the true Holy and Living God, and spinning rainbows and myths contrary to the Bible’s solid substance and inspiration by God.

Okay wow that was a long long rant. I am quite captured by Greek mythology, but I don’t know anyone who would talk about it with me. I can’t just go up to anyone who comes into my head and say “Come please talk mythology to me” so I shall just write it here. Nevertheless, in talking about mythology and the Bible, the Bible remains ever true and perfect. I am speechless, and humble at how the Lord uses His Word to minister to me and speak to me through His living Word. Truly and only by His grace and power, the Lord’s grace and power manifests in such a real way throughout my entire life, especially during my O’s. I mean everytime I face trials, tribulations and doubts, somehow somehow the Bible answers my thoughts and prayers so succinctly and with such truth. It is far more than I can thank God for, my soul will truly bless Him forever. God exists. He holds the world in perfect distance away from the sun, He is sovereign and perfect and powerful over all things. The firmament and heavens declare His glory and handiwork. I mean honestly, how could I feel so safe and feel such comfort and trust in a God who is so perfect to let the things of this earth run their course, and causing everything eventually to work for good? The world is held in such perfect balance and God cares for us throughout our entire lives, this is definitely the cause of His Divine power, excellence, grace and mercy. God is love, God is merciful. As high as the heavens are from the earth, so great is His mercy to us and He forgives us because He remembers we are dust. Psalm 103. That was from the Bible, and like greek mythology claims, we are as dust, fashioned out of the earth but none of its words comforts me as much as the goodness, holiness and divine perfection of God’s word.

Now that I’ve talked about the Lord, it is truly a desire within me to walk close to Him all the days of my life, to bear the Fruits of the Spirit and to always be under the cares of my God the Almighty. I have experienced true joy, peace and love in my walk with Him especially that two weeks ago when I was weak and especially broken. You know, somehow everything of the world, all it had to offer seemed so decadent and wicked, everything just paled in my eyes compared to dwelling in the Lord’s house and living in his word forever. I truly hope the Lord might grant me faith, mercy and grace, and keep me closest to Him, that is my deepest prayer.
