#68 A Gust Of Wind To Clear The Dust

It's funny how I stop by now and then with words in my mind but not the desire to update this cobweb filled personal recollection.

And so here I am.

It's one month short of my birthday. This past year has been crazy with all the birthday celebrations for the 1988 babies. And finally it's my turn.

As the year comes to a close and the hustle and bustle winds down, I have this sudden urge to cancel my birthday celebration and just take a solo Sabbath on that weekend.

You know, just disappear and "go as the wind goes". Tempting.

The reason for that is nothing angsty. I just want a good rest. Haven't been having much of one lately.

And there's this nagging feeling that I've been neglecting many people in my life, especially the people from the ol' HopeRP and my secondary school friends. Due to my oversight and recent preoccupation with the more irritating aspects of my life, the passage of time has brought social entropy.

And yet listening to Ps Kong's sermons give me this calming, encouraging and uplifting effect. A few years ago, I'd not imagine myself writing this, but well, when a man of God speaks, it really impacts.

I still feel far from perfect, I still feel I need lots of prodding and guiding, I still feel I need much more discipline.

But hey, whatever. I'm not yet 85! *Pun intended*
