Just like the story of the footprints, Lord and I walking on the sands by the shore. Many a times I stopped; fascinated by the things that are thrown in front of me, But Lord keeps on walking. He turned a few times, looking back at me and asked me to go yet each time I'll say to God, wait a while more... ...I moved on, but God is far in front. Not wanting to run, I take my pace to walk, thinking that I still can see Lord, so "It's okay..." More and more things came and stop in front of me, but when I lifted up my head, Lord was gone from my sight. The waves wash away His footprints too. I became panic and keep walking forward aimlessly, crying and worried. I came to a stop. The vast of emptiness and fear engulf me. I stopped, sit on the sand and cry. God did not come back immediately nor a few days later. No. God did not. Just as when I was about to turn and walk back where I came from, God stood there, in front of me. I cried and wondered why He was not around all the while, only to realise he was always behind me just as i wanted to turn back.
God stands behind us, so that each time when we are about to give up and return to our old lifestyle, we can find Him there, supporting us, encouraging us on. God knows our pace, He will come back and return to us, supporting and helping us to move on from the back.

they say all good things come to an end. but how about the bad?.
its been quitteeee sometime since i last touched my21grams, but i guess here i am now. drowing once again in my self-pity. lol. some things never change eh. sad thing i hardly ever feed this space with happyposts. nevertheless! dont you dare look at me with ur disapproving eyes! we all have our own mood swings. lol just so happens that its during these downtimes that i choose to write. *hmph!* lol
so ANW.. i was thinking. when your last thousand or so peekchures on your camera are ns-related, you know you're losing it. and that justttt so happens to be the case with yours sincerely. but fear not! apart from several loose screws and minor short circuits, tomu is still very much having a life. the same life you guys know it of as the one that's constantly falling apart. =S

yes. after my long period of absence from my21grams i'm still very much me (surprise, surprise), except this time. i'm supposed to have grown in this thing ppl call "a man".
hmmn.
as in. not that i was a woman b4 like durh. but more of like. adult. YOU KNOWW... 21? twentyoneee. whahas and yes. i do know that it's just a progression of days, and you might think that i'm probably just as dumb as i was on april13th as compared to april12th.. and well. yeah. -.- you're right. LOL. -.- but (ofcourse there's a but) tomu has not just turned 21 for nothing mindyou! he's entered adulthood (siol) with a briefcase full of immature maturity for the world. xD here's a lil tip from the iceberg =S i mean.. heres smth from the tip of the iceberg. lol.
pictures. they sorta really do speak a alot of words (1000 is way too definite a number) things we've carried with us all this while. The burdens, the love, the hate, the lost, the found, the times we laughed and those where we cried, the good times and bad blahblah. but yeah, everytime my finger goes down on the shutter and i take a picture, i tell myself that im capturing a moment.
-noun 1.an indefinitely short period of time;instant
moments that'll be gone at the very nxt split second. a blink of an eye they say. moments i capture to help me remember. memories tt'll bring back alllll bloody sorts of emotions. and as i look back at the pictures in my handphone from just the past year alone, i begin to realise how much can change in such a short time. how much i should be greatful for, how much more (or less) i should've done.
One minute I held the key Next the walls were closed on me And I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt, and pillars of sand
how apt. but yes. i figure this on-off phase of feeling the world slip through ur fingers is just a lil part of the whole new world of the growing up process eh? we lose, we gain. just to lose again. is this really how life's supposed to be? no. it isnt. that's just me.
and i'm starting to believe that through my bouts of immense emo-ness, that there actually are lessons to be learnt. for me and you. we all make choices, life pretty much is just that, choices; to live or die, to take the bus or the cab, do be good or bad, the right or left, to love life or to hate it. and i guess what i've learnt (or am still learning) is that when it comes to life, the choices you make really do shape your world, who you become, who you hurt, and who you touch. so i'm hoping that as little of a difference this will make to you, that when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance.
Better at least than if only eh? no matter how old or young you may be, if someone asks you if friendships do last, tell them yes.and believe it.
the best choices may not be the easiest, but they're most worthwhile. hope at least that gives you smth to think abt. =)
I want the world to be filled with pink candy floss and little mini pink and christmas green hearts floating around the sky blue (duh) sky.
LOL. OK NO. -.-
ok but yah. but i really actually love candy floss.
People call me tom (which happens to be my name) and everytime i speak chinese a little cute sheep on the other side of the world burns and dies in agony. I love soggy cabage cereal and suck at writing profiles. so just click your way away from this page and make sure you leave a tag after each visit to my21grams. Enjoy. =)
mw_dust@hotmail.com is my msn.
