It's now 1.55pm.

I looked out the window, the flags on the poles beating smoothly as the wind blew...and it made me wonder, sometimes, life is something like that. U know, the ways of the world, the influences of the people around u, whether it is good or bad, the new angles and horizons that u see as u grow up, beliefs that your friends share with you, values and faiths and habits or even just as simple as kindness..or initiatives and just the way your frens or people out there are....are the potential winds that blow u eachday.

Many of us, are shaped and cultured as we grow up by the people around us, sometimes it is just the TV..haha...whereby cartoons and action heroes are one that we could be identified with..haha...So, believe it or not, that is wat we are today, obviously, as u grow up, you wun just wear your red underwear outside...and you obviously know that u can't fly no matter how much u try...Things change..and sometimes..for better or for worse...only those who stayed long enough will know.

As I give myself a little longer thought, I feel like, lately, I've been like that flag, that has been caught, left and right as the winds blow. And the pole is wat I am actually holding and relying. The winds blew hard sometimes...and I just hope that the colth of the flag will not give way. I just dunno how much faith that I have...For...even if jsut one strand out of the weave just decided to let go, sooner or later..it's gonna tear...and when the wind blows again..I will soon go...Gone with the Wind!

Then, in my mind...I saw some other poles that are with me. I know strong winds have been blowing...reali..some stood strong...they hung onto that pole...the one that we alwais trust that will keep us who we are, stretch us up to our highest height. For without it, we can't even hold ourselves up. I was moved and once again encouraged...yet, some gave way..and decided to just let the wind take them to wherever the wind goes. It is sad obviously, to see them...gone, gone with the wind..and only God knows when will we see them again...if ever.

So..if u understand this little short illustration, I just hope that u will keep hangin onto that pole of yours. Let just think carefully, without the pole, you're just a piece of cloth that will never be anything that you are destined to be..hang on tight. It is when the wind blows that the glory the maker gave you will be proclaimed!!
