2 blogs in one day. Oh how gloria loves to exhibit her extremities :)
I laid in bed from 3.30pm-4:57pm under my covers. A luxury to do that on a beautiful afternoon. No music playing from any source, no MP3 plugged into my ears, just some sound from nature-the chirpping of the birds, the cars going by, earoplans, and some rare moments, even hearing the sound of silence.
Well, i can't exactly say i was thinking about a particular thing, perhaps all i really wanted to do was to be silent, to take time to listen, letting no fear inhabit me. My close friends can testify that i am not a fan of Corrine May. However, during my moments of just lying there, the tune of 5 loaves and two fish came to my mind and i remembered listening to this song on my way home a few days ago and now i think it reflects the state of mind i'm in.
I often think about that boy
when I'm feeling small
and I worry that the work I do
means nothing at all
12 years of education. Before one can proceed on to another education level, there's a lot of readings to do, even desperate tuitions, late nights of mugging, some tears of frustration, and comes the imminent question which i have asked myself, perhaps i'm not the the ONLY ONE.

But every single tear I cry

and every door that slams in my face
I will offer up in prayer
So I'll give you every breath that I have
Oh Lord, you can work miracles
All that you need is my "Amen"
Take my five loaves and two fishes
Do with it as you will I surrender
Take my fears and inhibitions
All my burdens, my ambitions
You can use it all
I hope it's not too small
I trust in you trust in you
Take my five loaves and two fishes
Do with it as you will I surrender
Take my fears and inhibitions
All my burdens, my ambitions
You can use it all
no gift is too small
