Girls' Club
Guzel, Lina, and Hongyan came over to my overly-spacy apartment. We shared pictures, ate desserts, and most importantly---we talked! Lina's reaction to my relationship with my boyfriend is always pessimistic (not even "cautiously optimistic"), which makes me think about it.
Human beings rely on the environment, but we have the will to persist and to choose not to take everything the environment acts on us. This is the persistence we need to uphold our beliefs, sustain our passions, and pursue our dreams.

幸福的人生
人生的意義是什麼？中學的時候，課本記載人生的意義是要自我實踐。
但實踐了與不實踐又如何？
自我實踐是在人生的痛苦中找堅持的原因嗎？
讀再多的書也沒有答案
我沒有答案
做研究 是追求理想 做自己認為有意義的事
然後跑到美國 與家人 男朋友分開 與外婆永别
才感到理想是多脆弱
要是有一天身邊人都不在
還需要談人生的意義嗎？
還有幸福的理由嗎？
張牧師說渴求得到滿足就幸福
人生就完滿
耶穌說他來是要人得生命
並且是豐盛的有喜樂平安的生命
上教會這麼久
這些我是知道的
但為什麼？
問題沒有答案 我懷疑天父
直到聽到這首詩歌...
人生的問題 可能一生也沒有完整的答案
也可能只在乎用信心去領受
我盼望更有信心去經歷
滿有恩典的人生
求天父幫助我

[When Answers Aren't Enough]
You have faced the mountains of desperation
You have climbed You have fought You have won
But this valley that lies coldly before you
castes a shadow you cannot overcome
Just when you thought you had it all together
You knew every verse to get you through
But this time all the sorrow broke more than just your heart
and reciting all those verses just won't do
When answers aren't enough
there is Jesus
He is more than just an answer to your prayer
And your heart will find a safe and peaceful refuge
When answers aren't enough
He is there
Instead of asking "Why did it happen?"
Think of where it can lead you from here
And as your pain is slowly easing
you can find a greater reason to live your life
triumphant through the year
You have faced the mountains of desperation

and reciting all those verses just won't do

Happy Birthday, Elaine!
There are only 28 days in a year that Elaine and I are at the same age. Today is the first of the 28 days.
My boyfriend and I booked some flowers online-we wanted to surprise her. It turns out that whoever in her kindergarten receives flowers needs to buy everybody snacks! Anyway, i think she will be happy to share the joy with everyone.
I told almost everyone i know that she is my best friend. In many ways, she is a young woman with great wisdom and persistence. I'm grateful to have her as my sister, who shares uncomparable bond with me. I'm also grateful that she and Hang have met each other. Hang is a very gentle and wise man. I wish her health and joy and i wish their love grows stronger and stronger.

And then a kiss, but more than this,
I wish you love."
And then a kiss, but more than this,
I wish you love."

I should be a philosophy major?!
| But i enjoy data and empirical findings too! In fact, the quiz pops a tie-breaker question asking if i enjoy "thinking about the meaning of life" or "thinking about human psychis" more... You scored as Philosophy. You should be a Philosophy major! Like the Philosopher, you are contemplative and you enjoy thinking about the purpose for humanity's existence.
What is your Perfect Major? (PLEASE RATE ME!!<3) created with QuizFarm.com |
