A straight line

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight
"
Proverbs 3:5-6

Life in a way is not a straight line, if it was then it would be boring. A life where everything has been predetermined is not fun, it's like living everyday like a robot. We should try to learn to be happy and enjoy life as it is, accept whatever that comes, don't chase whatever that goes. Sometimes we will ask ourselves questions like what's the point in me doing this or that or what for? Most of the time we probably don't know the choices we make. But perhaps we were just following our hearts, sometimes it leads to painful results, but in the end everything is always good. Time heals all wounds, but there are some scars that tend to stay. But as long as the bitterness does not stay, then everything will end up fine as bitterness will breed other sorrowful thoughts and feelings.

Another random post in this boring times before finals.

Today I watched The Dark Knight for the second time, and wow the whole story still impressed me, Heath Ledger's acting still leaves a deep memory in me, his psycho behaviour and thoughts reminds of myself when I was undergoing depression. Well although I don't go around bombing and shooting people but well maybe I was close to that level of insanity. Thinking back it now seems that I just woke up from a very bad dream, a nightmare, if I relate those events to others they might think I'm crazy. But God has helped me to get through those dark times and now a new me is reborn. Now I can feel that I have the energy and strength to do things I could never do last time, achieve things that I never thought I could. His powers are truly awesome. When laziness try to strike me down, I remember his strength and his promise and that renews my energy.

"Many are the plans in a man's heart
but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails
"
Proverbs 19:21
