Life is a box of chocolates
I just finished playing basketball with my friends. Phew! And we are playing full court! That's pretty intense though :P I manage to score a few points too, but mostly thanks to Sam's basketball, the ball seems to be lighter and easier to manage. Hehe.
However, for some reason, I ponder upon something that I've lost a long time, something that I've lost hold long time ago. I'm not sure what I've lost, so I never bother thinking about it and it quickly fade away from my memory... I somehow can feel the missing part of me now, someone whispered to me, "search for your trueself...".
It's hard to explain, but I believe I've lost the sense as a person, a person called "me" two years ago, the same time when I lost contact with most of my childhood friends, the same time when I found out my application to unversity was rejected, the same time when I had to depend on my own, and the same time when I had to start all over again. I wasn't ready at that time.
Now that I'm a university student, a NUS student, I believe is my responsibility to be what I ought to be, to do what I ought to do, and to serve who I ought to serve. I hope tomorrow journey in finding the person "me" will be a fruitfull one...
Below is an intersting conversation in a movie "Forest Gump. It's an inspiration for me and I believe it is so for others.
Mrs. Gump I happen to believe you make your own destiny. You have to do the best with what God gave you.
Forrest Gump What's my destiny, Mama?
Mrs. Gump You're gonna have to figure that out for yourself. Life is a box of chocolates, Forrest. You never know what you're gonna get.
