some dreams live on in time forever
those dreams,you want with all your heart
and i will do whatever it takes
follow through with the promise i made
put it all on the line
what i hoped for at last would be mine
if i could reach,higher
just for one moment touch the sky
from that one moment in my life
i am gonna be stronger
know that i have tried my very best
i would put my spirit to the test
if i could reach
some days are meant to be remembered
those days we rise above the stars
so i will go the distance this time
seeing more the higher i climb
that the more i believe
all the more that this dream would be mine

Seldom,very seldom does complete truth belong to any human disclosure; seldom can it happen that something is not a little disguised,or a little mistaken.

Talking much about oneself can also be a means to conceal oneself.

I am feeling this rather strongly today. And so I would like to share it with you.
~~~~~~~~~
Everything that happens in this world happens at the time God chooses.
There is a time for birth, and a time for death A time for planting, and a time for pulling up A time for killing, and a time for healing A time for tearing down, and a time for building A time for sorrow, and a time for joy A time for mourning, and a time for dancing A time for making love, and a time for not making love A time for kissing, and a time for not kissing A time for finding, and a time for losing A time for saving, and a time for throwing away A time of tearing, and a time for mending A time for silence, and a time for talk A time for love, and a time for hate A time for war, and a time for peace
So I realize that all we can do is be happy and do the best we can while we are still alive…Whatever happens or can happen has already happened before. God makes the same thing happen again and again.
Eccl.3:1-8,12,15

Indeed, there’s a time for everything.
I met my former FYP supervisor today to hand her a copy of the project manuscript for vetting. We had a short chat, shared with each other what we’ve been doing since after the project, and yes, there were some surprising revelations involved too. It was all quite good on the whole, not too awkward like how it could be sometimes if you haven’t met a person for a while. Maybe it’s the atmosphere that overwhelmed me a little when I’m back at my old faculty. So I was basically just happy to see anyone and everyone.
If I could add on to the list above, I would say there is a time for losing contact and a time for catching up too.
It has a lingering feel to it that I can’t quite explain.
These days, I’m growing to accept that work and deadlines are become a norm in my life. They are packed into my schedule and I’m dealing with it as much as I can. If I can’t find time for you, I’m terribly sorry. If you can’t find time for me, I’ll try to understand.
Just simply because there is a right time for everything.
