♥ 23:16
I just got home from the bi-monthly DGL meeting. Learnt quite a fair bit about spiritual parenting today.
Anyway went to watch Devil Wears Prada this morning with my DG. It's a really nice movie. I learnt some life lessons from there as well. We can all pursue the fame and money that we want but at the expense of some things that are important in life. This can come in the form of actually feeling the sense of satisfaction from your job to even relationships that are important in life. It set me thinking about my life in the future. I wonder if I would become like Anne Heathaway. Be sucked into the world of fame and fortune without even knowing it and then start losing all that is important to me. It's a scary thought actually because it's like selling my soul to my job. To put it simply, it happens in my student life as well. Grades and everything that matters to me has sucked me into a world where I tend to neglect what is important to me. Sometimes I realise that I haven't spent enough time with my friends especially during the school term and now even in the holidays just because I am too busy earning money.
Sometimes I wish that someone would slap me in my face or shake me by my shoulders to tell me to face reality, wake up and see what's important to me. Yet sometimes I wish I can realise my dreams faster so that at the end of the day, I know that I haven't lived my life in vain. The irony of it all.
I don't know what to say but just that I trust in you, God to show me the way. To tell me the answers to the questions I have presented before you. Though it can be tiring at times to wait for Your answers, I pray that I will be faithful to wait on you. I trust that God you will provide in this path that you have set before me.
