Alone with God

On Sat and Sun before Daddy came back, I went to town and walked around alone. It was relaxing and stressful at the same time; stressful coz I scared somebody eyeing my wallet and wanna kidnap me, and relaxing coz nobody knows who I am and because the people here don't judge like Singaporeans do.

On Sat night I walked around till there was nothing much left to do, and I thought to myself: What's one thing that I won't be able to do if Daddy was with me? ANS: To sit down and do nothing. So i went over to some colourful fountain and sat down there, in e midst of families and plenty of little kids, all running and playing. I had a hard time identifying which kid belonged to which parent, coz everyone was like one big family. And as I sat there I felt like a Vietnamese. Smiles greeted me. There were some long balloons given out, and the children were all using it to dip the water. Some played catching around this exhibition, both parents and children. It was wonderful. In Singapore, parents would probably feel paiseh and passer-bys would probably laugh. Oh i think they wouldn't even have time to go out with their children. And there wouldn't be free ballons coz that person must have calculated the cost and decided not to lose money. Money, money, money...I hate money. But I like some things that it can buy. So maybe I still like money. HAHA i dunno lah.

I must be thankful for my family though. When we were young, we used to play baseball in the garden downstairs every evening. We bought this red baseball bat and put slippers all around the field. Even mummy lam would play. And I would hit the ball so hard that Daddy would have to go pick it up for me. And we'll run round and round the field. I think those were the happiest days of my life so far. So next time I shall play baseball with my own wife and kids too. HAHA!! And with God above smiling...Glimpse of heaven man.

I spent my birthday in a blackout. All alone with Jesus and a guitar. The best birthday ever. Seriously.
