The pointless-ness of life is again quashed by things done for others.
I woke up this morning relatively miserable so i decided to leave the house. Didn't want to be cooped up today. So I went for meepok with Matt and Ziig. Took an MRT down to serangoon cos I needed to hand in the photocopy of my passport. Didn't want Sylvia to bust an artery cos she was hounding me so much.

Tried to call Nurul and meet up with her to get my bible back but she's not answering or replying my smses. I was so near Sengkang MRT at that time. Sigh... Anyway, made my way to Plaza Singapura after that. Looked around in Trumpet Praise and Yamaha Music, my two favourite shops in Plaza Singapura... Treated myself to a high quality drumstick bag... Cheered me up somewhat. :p

Wanted to meet up with Lynette today. I dunno why I wanted to but I'm glad I did. Went down to city hall when she was still having bible study with Elissa. After that I acoompanied Lynette to KK Hospital to visit her ex-colleague and her 4 year old son. He was down with high fever and a bad cough. My heart went out to the poor boy. When I had the chance, I went beside the boy, laid my hand on his head and prayed for him. And when I was doing that, I started tearing because my heart went out to him. It was as if I could feel his unspoken pain. I've learnt something else about myself today.

Another clear example of the power of words.
You build people up with what you say. Especially when they are young. Take responsibility.
