Perspective
This morning as i was brushing my teeth, my thoughts was slightly tuned to another perspective and i thought i felt comfortable with it. I switched on the laptop & read the daily bread online when i discovered today's topic is on 'Perspective'.
Question: When is a bird bigger than a mountain?
Answer: When the bird is closer than the mountain
In reality, the bird is not bigger than the mountain, but it sure looks that way when the feathery fellow is perched on my window ledge and the mountain is far away in the distance.
Sometimes we perceive God this way in relationship to our problems. The troubles facing us seem huge because they are so close......At such times, God seems as far away as a distant mountain, and we perceive Him as being small and unreachable.
Just as a bird is never bigger than a mountain, no problem is ever bigger than God. It’s all a matter of changing our perspective. — Julie Ackerman Link
The problems that we face each day
Can seem too much to bear
Until we turn our eyes to Christ
And trust His tender care. —Sper

Today i went to collect my passport & then made my way to Golden Mile. It has been 1 yr & 7 months since i went to Lavender? Anyway, i went to the Thai Supermarket there for a walk and got some thai products. I've got a pack of Lays which is in 'Nori Seaweed' favor, A pack of instant flat noodles in Tom Yam flavor & a pack of Tao Kay Noi in my favourite Tomato flavor.
I thought i was in Thailand, haha, the majority people there are Thais & i even hear them speaking in their language. I didnt want to walk back to Lavender to take the train so i went to see if there's a bus that can get me nearer to home.
I took bus 100 & dropped off @ Aljunied where i took a bus home. I hope to try the food in Golden Mile one day.. today just wasnt a day where i wanted to just sit in a foreign place to have my meal.
It has been almost 3 hours im home but i have not get myself down to doing something productive yet.. Recently, i am making a change to my lifestyle... sleeping early @ 11pm.. & i hope day by day, my self discipline in all aspects will be improved.
Sometimes... i really wonder how did i go through my life in the past? You know some tiny things when you repeat them regularly, they becomes a habit in your life. Subconsciously, you maybe emotionally dependent on the things you do, what if one day your habit has to take a change, will you still be able to move on, or will gravity take you down?
* I've realised what it means ' It takes two to tango' .... Things just arent in our control sometimes, we just have to admit it & let it go for God to take charge.
