Promos in 3 days time... Why am I not nervous at all? Why do I stay online? Why am I blogging at this point in time? Haha to tell the truth I don't really have the answers to those questions. But looking at everything going around and all the stress and stuff other people are facing, I sorta feel... Guilty?
While I do study, I somehow don't feel all that stressed at this point of time. Is it cos I've finished mugging? Is it cos I think that promos aren't that important? Is it cos I think I'll definitely promote? Or that God will definitely guide me through? Well I guess its a mix of everything. And when I compare how I'm feeling with how my peers are feeling... I feel guilty, for not taking the chance to help them, for not encouraging them, for not telling them that to relax and stuff.
Although its seems like no one is asking for help, I figure that there are some people who do need it. Just that I'm not receptive enough to sense it, or just too quiet to offer my help. So I'm gonna take this chance... Anyone who desperately needs help, please come to me if you want to.
Suicide. Wonder how many people regretted not telling the guy to lighten up? Wonder how many people didn't help him with his studies? Wonder how many people are feeling guilty at this point of time? Its been more than one week already. And the effects are still there. I have a friend in my OG who had to attend 3 funerals in a week, and I can imagine how much pain he feels inside.
While on the other hand I think of how selfish the guy who decided to end his life was, I think of how us as people don't stop whenever our paths cross with someone who needs help. I never want anyone around me to die just like that, just because I just sat back and let things go their natural course. I'd go into depression with such a strong sense of guilt holding me down.

Heres something to chew about for all Christians out there. Would you ever comtemplate suicide? I wouldn't, cos I know God's always here no matter what. He's with us THROUGH IT ALL. Also, if I died early, I'd never get to complete the will He has brought me to earth for. If any of you Christians have thought of jumping off a building, think about God, not yourself. I know this sounds a bit harsh, but I think I have to say this just in case.
Further building on this point, if God can give us Christians the strength to live on despite all difficulties, imagine the strength he can give non-believers as well. Take this chance to tell everyone about the greatness of our God, so that they can see that life is not all about studies or ambitions. So even if they fail, they can fall back on the belief that God is still the most important, and they have to stay on in order to fufill his mighty purpose.

Next post would be after promos, most likely with pics! Look out for it...
So guys... All the best for promos or whatever exams are coming. Don't let the stress get to you. Its not worth it.
