Dreams And Maturity
I went to catch Initial D on friday at Bugis. The movie was pretty funny though it's not really up to my expectation. The cartoon are still better...I think! Nevertherless, I would like to share some of my views about certain parts of the show. Towards the end, the guy was dissappointed with the girl hence he decided to join the racing team. He felt that it was supposed to be his dream and it's what he enjoyed doing all the time. It's different from the original story whereby the guy left the girl to pursue his dream. In my own view, I strongly feel that there is a huge difference in pursuing a dream regardless of what it take versus pursuing a dream after a girl had left. What do you all think?

MATURITY
The sermon in church this sunday was about maturity. It simply mean that all of us have to grow somehow. It's not about growing old, but more about growing maturity. Why do we need to grow?
Somehow the biggest hinder to growth is superficiality. Are we troubled by lack of maturity? Are we more concerned with the comfort in life than growing in maturity? It is not automatic to grow in maturity. Either we grow warmer/closer or fallen away from the glory of GOD. It's a fact that I feel that it happen all the time around us. Most of us may rather continue to do the things we want or even the way we speak compared to changing our bad habits to make us a better person. One example is the way we speak or behave to people around us. Why can't we just speak words of encouragement or be nicer to them? All this is due to the problem of 'PRIDE'. We do not like to put ourselves down cos it's better to be on top at all times. We are all taught to fight for the things we want especially in a fast-paced country like singapore.
And either we grow closer or fallen away from the glory of GOD. People may feel that it's alright to stop coming to church or cell activities as long as they read the bible every day. Is it true? It's not healthy for man/woman to be alone as it will only make them prone to attack by negative thoughts or feelings. Imagine when you are sick in a hospital, would you rather be alone or would you rather have friends and family to comfort you? The answer is obvious rite!!
Let us continue to spur one another on in term of maturity and in everything we do. All the best in the coming week ahead.
