Naive....

Now that's a very good word to describe me... Something that I never really grew out of.

But that's as far as the word will go in this post. So much for a title...

The name of this blog is One Way... from the Christian song. And yet... while I am on the one way in my life, I keep looking left and right, stopping on the path to laze around, observing people pass by... Not realising that they have overtaken me, yet still pretending to be tired just so that I can stop and "smell the flowers", forgetting the many goals that lie at different stretches of the road. This is one of my biggest mistakes, illustrated in the physical by the annoying inability to do anything that I experience while all my peers head off to uni. I made my choice and I stand by it, but I find it very hard to stop myself regretting... a decision made 2 years ago and another 1.5 years ago, both of which changed my life... possibly for ever.

Even my parents are berating me for making the decisions I made. I do not blame them, although I wish they could be more understanding. I know my life has been changed. And perhaps I even challenged God in the process. Did I tread on "the road not taken"? It did make a lot of, if not all the difference, albeit only over 2 years. Hmm... misguided instinct? Or simply being too naive to know the difference? So much for a title, eh?

hmm..yea, I understand that feeling - why can't our parents just understand us. But I believe everything that happens, good or bad, has a purpose in the tapestry God has thread for us. Mayb u won't know the purpose now, but soon. Don't worry la... :)

God bless
