Why do we love?

I overheard a old man telling his friend at a trial: "This is not a lawyer. This is a liar."
I couldn't help but smile at the irony of it all.
What are the chances of entering the very profession you are most critical of?
Nothing is impossible. Indeed, indeed.

Imperfection. The more you get to know people, the more you see how nobody can be perfect. But hey, don't you think that the very people you think are imperfect are actually reflections of none other than yourself? I had my fair share of dealings with people who get on my nerves, those whose actions and words disturb me. But i believe it happens the other way round too. My occasional 'coolness' and frankness do hurt people, and i'm terribly sorry for that as well.

Friends. Besides Himself , family and friends are God's greatest gift to Man. Flaws are embraced by friends, and they can sometimes be turned into something positive. Crisis brings out the best in people. Even the best of friends. But TIME. Time acts like a filter, and what remains are the friends whom you you treasure most, and you know deep inside that the feeling is mutual.

It's amazing how friends just bond watching a movie, which is essentially an activity that requires zero social interaction.
It's amazing the feeling of warmth that overwhelms you when a friend tells you "You're in my prayers."
It's amazing how a friend can say something that strikes you so hard you ponder over it for the entire week.
It's amazing how a friend has the power to correct you and you don't take offence.
It's amazing how you seem to be able to speak your mind when surrounded by friends.
It's amazing how you can spend hours talking at a cafe and you leave the place not recalling anything that was said.
It's amazing how you can be worlds apart, but still seem to find common topics and interests to talk about.
It's amazing how a friend is just a call away.
It's amazing, this thing called FRIENDSHIP.

To you Bpians- it's been 6 years!! We've grown up together, had good times and bad times. There were times we grew apart and times we got back together again. We survived it all. Aren't you glad we did?

AJcians!! 2 years flew past so quickly. Admidst all the mugging we had to do, we still had time to get to know each other and forge friendships that are to last. Do keep in touch my dear friends!

Law school- haha this is weird, judging from how i only know a couple from there but I'm thankful for those I've gotten to know this past month. You guys have been nothing but an encouragement and blessing =)

CHURCH!!! - Leaving the best for the last huh? I can never imagine life without church friends! To those in the music teams i've been in, you have no idea how much it matters to know you guys are right behind me during my bouts of stage-fright lol. The nods of encouragement in my stressful moments and your patience with me when i get impatient is really appreciated =) (On a side note, FOP is coming. let me know if you're interested in gg!!)
I just realise that it's impossible to categorise church friends haha. But you poeple know who you are and i thank God for you all.

Pardon me. It's just another one of those reflective moments....
BUT. I'm finally doing something I've been pushing back for so long. No, escaping should be the word. It's not so much for anything or anyone, but for myself. For freedom. For peace.

*A firm nod*
