I've been watching a lot of movies recently. Just got back from Tampines Mall... Watched Mystic River with Joshua, Jeremy, Pat and Gloria. Clearly a case of how things can spiral out of control when everyone chooses to act irrationally, basing on emotions rather than on what is right... Some people may argue that it would be the right thing to do in that situation. That means we're basing on which is relatively more right. Not on concrete, definite, black and white decisions... It messes up a person see? Being wronged doesn't give you an excuse to do something bad to others... Justify pain with more pain?

Went for the 3LetterSessionsB CD Launch on Saturday... 2 words...
B l o w n A w a y ! ! !
Almost every band was good... Notably Sky in Euphoria & My Squared Circle. As always, going to a gig like that makes you wonder why you're still having dreams of being big in Singapore. But then I remember I play for God and nobody else.

The cell retreat was quite nice... Really good to spend the weekend with the cell basically slacking... Learnt more about some of my members which is good. Its things like this that make a cell grow. I think I had the best feeling seeing the cell come for sunday service together... As in seeing them walk through the door. It felt good. I played for service. Focussing on playing simple but steady beats on the drums and throwing in the fill-ins now and then... I think it sounded better.

This ringing in my ears tells me what I've left behind
And these countless tears remind me of what I've yet to find
Second chances spurned
Thrown away like dirty rags

When I feel as if I'm not good enough
Not good enough to stand on my own
Thats when people remind me
of my insecurity

Apathy

When my feet ache
and I've screamed enough for the both of us
I close my eyes
And dream... Of how it might have been

But this my comfort...
I'll always know that I walked away from you
