Weight Problems

By Lawrence Yong in Quotes

I got this from my cousin the other day:

"I do not have weight problem. YOU have a problem with my weight!"

It's just so damm true... I find the quote very interesting yet funny. IMO, This is probably one of the best replies available for those who don't like to talk about their weight, regardless of over or under... 

P.S: I'm not really sure exactly where this quote came from. Does anyone know the source?

I bump into this touching video from my friend, Anand, a while ago. Watch the video, feel it, enjoy it and think. Once you're done that, then read my thoughts if you want.

Lifehouse - Everything

 

Find Me Here

Speak To Me

I want to feel you

I need to hear you

You are the light

That's leading me

To the place where I find peace again.

 

You are the strength, that keeps me walking.

You are the hope, that keeps me trusting.

You are the light to my soul.

You are my purpose...you're everything.

 

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

 

You calm the storms, and you give me rest.

You hold me in your hands, you won't let me fall.

You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.

Would you take me in? Take me deeper now?

 

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

 

Cause you're all I want, You're all I need

You're everything,everything

You're all I want your all I need

You're everything, everything.

You're all I want you're all I need.

You're everything, everything

You're all I want you're all I need, you're everything, everything.

 

And How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

 

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

 

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

My Thoughts, My beliefs:

 

I am speaking from a Christian point of view and my beliefs. So, for the free tinkers and believers/followers of other religions, this may or may not make sense to you. :P

 

We were created in the most wonderful way we can possibly be. We were created to enjoy the world which GOD has created, and with him. But how many times are we blinded by the worldly things, and then push GOD aside and forget about HIM?

 

The lust for romance, for emotional pleasure: Are people always blinded by what they think is true love, or the perfect relationship? Do people forget who they are when they're blinded in such way?  

 

The greed for money: When exactly is enough truly enough? Why do some people spend all their lives chasing after pieces of paper, forgetting about life itself in the process?

 

The pleasure and fun offered by the world: Why do people drown themselves in cigarettes, alcohol & drugs? Is this truly fun? Or is it just numb?

 

The envious heart for the fame and beauty of the world: Why do people damage themselves (anorexia in the video) just to follow the trend of the world? Just how far would people go to get “the perfect look” and “popularity & fame”?

 

The despair and disappointment to the world, especially ourselves: Why do people feel emptiness in their heart? Is life truly meaningless, and are we truly so worthless that we should not live?

 

I believe that GOD has given us a freedom of choice to choose our paths. And whenever we choose a path towards our own destruction, HE will let us know in HIS way, and provide the guidance that we need. Just how many of times have we ignored the signs and warnings from GOD and push HIM away? Yet, HE has never left us, and is always there with us, waiting for us to come back to HIM...  All we need to do is to make a choice, and HE will be there, to hold us and protect us from all that is bad, to love us and to guide us back to the right path, like always. The choice is always in our hands.... what would your choice be?

 

God's love and grace is truly great! But we should never, ever take things for granted.

 

 

“...I will never leave you nor forsake you.” (Joshua 1:5)

 

“Come near to God and he will come near to you...” (James 4:8)
