Muse - Starlight

Just came back from Taiwan.
The weather there was unpredictable. Unlike Singapore, where a light drizzle usually harbingered a downpour, it is common to experience a sudden heavy shower that lasts for a minute and drizzles that last for hours. Once, when my group and i were walking, a sudden downpour had us rushing to put on our raincoats, only to pack them up a minute later.

We climbed mountains, forgoing sleep on certain days and camped overnight on others. It becomes chilly at night, with temperatures hovering around 10-15degrees by my estimate. Sleeping in a sleeping bag makes for a very comfortable sleep though.

Once, an old man caught my group 'inappropriately dressed' and gave us alot of trouble. As punishment, he wanted us to remain in our hotels the entire time we were in Taipei. Fortunately for us, he was not omniscient.

In the day, we took a bus and went on tours to temples and theme parks. They were entertaining enough, but not really *that* exciting. At night, we roamed the city streets.
The girls in Taiwan are, as our resident doctor puts it, "2 points higher than your average Orchard Road specimen". The cars travel fast and furious. The first time the man turned green, i stood there waiting for the cars to stop. They did not. Fortunately, the locals showed us how to cross the road. Just walk, the cars will stop very near you. I'm not sure if these drivers are flouting the traffic rules or if the traffic rules permit such behaviour.

Finally, we left on a jetplane, don't know when i'll be back to Taiwan again. No matter, there's no place like home!

Feelings

An extract from the 4 Spiritual Laws:

"The promise of God's Word, the Bible - not our feelings - is our authority. The Christian lives by faith (trust) in the trustworthiness of God Himself and His Word. Flying in an aeroplane can illustrate the relationship among fact (God and His Word), faith (our trust in God and His Word), and feeling (the result of our faith and obedience) (John 14:21).

To be transported by an airplane, we must place our faith in the trustworthiness of the aircraft and the pilot who flies it. Our feelings of confidence or fear do not affect the ability of the airplane to transport us, though they do affect how much we enjoy the trip. In the same way, we as Christians do not depend on feelings or emotions, but place our faith (trust) in the trustworthiness of God and the promises of His Word."

The extract above is meant for Christians. I've been thinking of blogging about feelings for sometime, and now that I have defeated procrastination, I'm glad that the time has finally come. I've wanted to share the extract above because of actions I observed that are difficult to understand, and these actions were possibly the result of decisions made that were based on just (or mainly) feelings.

Decisions lead to actions, and actions lead to results. If we would like to see better results in our lives, now might be a good time to re-examine how we often make decisions. A good question to ask ourselves might be: Do I often make decisions based on just (or mainly) how I feel about it? Let's be honest with ourselves and if our answer was "yes", there is a much higher likelihood that many of the decisions we have been making were not good ones at all.

To add a little further caution, another danger of relying overly on feelings is that the evil one is able to influence situations around us that affect our feelings and cause us to make decisions that are against what God wants us to do.

Let us allow God and His Word to be our authority, and not our feelings, so that we may consistently be making decisions that truly honor and please the God (Jesus) we love. Before making any decisions, let's start asking ourselves: Is this a decision that will honor and please God and does it agree with His Word (Bible)?

wah tiles, thanks for the little farewell dinner! i'm glad most of u managed to come. I really enjoyed the night, especially with adriel's lame jokes. they were super entertaining..made me laugh alot. joel too, thanks for organising and being at manhanttan early to ensure we get seats:) and the flowers!! altho i'm not really a flower person, i'm still think it's really sweet of u all to get flowers for me. i like the smell! and thanks to james for the ben & jerry's treat! so sinful but so delicious~
ilovetiles!!! will miss u guys very very much~~

joy and james enjoying their fishy food...

marilyn, adriel and joshua enjoyin theirs... tt's gail's hand with garlic bread.

who says all men are tough and brutal? right here in tiles, we have 3 very eligible bachelors who arent afraid to show their soft and gentle side.

They said, "We love strawberries!" They are joshua, adriel and james- The Strawberry Men. (Up for grabs!)

and well.. someone just has to be an exception. Exhibiting all the masculine traits of a macho man, we have a guy who proudly declares, "I love durians."
joel- tiles' very own mr. macho man. (also up for grabs!)

adriel looking so satisfied with his ben and jerry's ice cream. just like a kid!

"finally a bowl i can really eat." Joshua clearing up for us.

marilyn and adriel. samsung should pay them for free advertising.

ah. mr. macho man also likes flowers!

I saw a really nice bouquet of flowers, so i decided to buy for joel. then i surprised him after dinner!

"na! joel, this is for you!"

joel politely receives the flowers and we posed for a photo.

Look at how happy joel is after receiving the flowers!

"I'm so happy! my first bouquet of flowers! yay!"

then he realised, "how can i receive flowers from a girl??" then he decided to return the flowers to me.

but i dun think it's such a good idea. " no no..it's for u. pls take it!"

_____________

the end.

cya guys on sunday!!^^
