A day full of blessings

Today's my birthday; Received lots of blessings from friends and families, feel so loved.
I had a day out with Superboy, first photography date with him.
Although there were no cakes, no candles, no cards, no presents,
it was a perfectly awesome day spent together.

My birthday always reminds me of the approaching new year.
2014 is just around the corner, a few days away; while 2013 comes to an end.
And the big question we ask ourselves is this: Have I fulfilled my 2013 resolutions?


These were what I wrote back then, my 2013 resolutions:

I, Ng Shi Qi, promised to take care, to love and to protect these girls in QSN.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away

No matter what happened in the future, I will stand by them, or even stand out to protect them.

Before going into my main topic of this post, here's just some little updates:
I'm back from Tanjong Pinang! Am so glad that I could go for a short getaway after a hectic sem. And the best thing is to be with my favourite girls, all 12 of them whom I love. It was just a simple 2 days 1 night trip where we get to visit different FTs in Tanjong Pinang. Despite that, the whole trip was filled with excitement. The girls were so high, energetic and fun! Some of us had pillow talk till 3am, relationships, laughters and discussions about guys. hahahahah! Friendship bonds aside, of cause I've learnt something in this short trip too! I'm touched, I'm impressed, with the uncountable sacrifices made by TZ men. Many of them sacrificed quite a huge portion of their house for FT/FT activities. And many a times, FT-related concerns were important factors and part of their decision making. I'm touched by their burning passion, their consistent effort in building 道场 in Tanjong Pinang. May 道场 in Tanjong Pinang be more 泓展!

Alright, so back to my main topic.
I wanted to blog about 'Asking WHY'.
During my LY last night, I was fortunate to meet WuFu ZZ.
Had a chat with him, and it was about RCB.
I had always wanted to quit RCB.
Honestly speaking, I have no motivation to continue.
I talked to quite a lot of people, but responses were almost the same.
So I got tired after awhile and decided maybe I should just go with the flow.
But last night, ZZ responded differently.
He didn't advise, he just kept asking 'why'; meaning his questions were all filled with 'WHY'.
So of course, I didn't have an answer. But all these questions kept me thinking.
Why is there RCB, what's the objective of it?
Why do you want to come FT? Why is there a need for 大同世界? Define it.
What's after 大同世界?

I seriously have no idea.
But I know, I need to find out so that I could go further..


- when you get the 'why', the 'how' will naturally follow ~
