eggtart

if only i am able to smile like that everyday. if only i could be as happy as that sweet little chirpy softie egg tart every second!

some talented lady made that and it just makes me smile every time i stare at it.

i am reminded of the simple joys in life. the happiness that we all seek and how we go about searching for it.

some give up half way and some go completely off-track, misunderstanding the entire purpose, meaning and make of happiness.

somehow when i think of what makes me happy, i think of other people’s happiness. my happiness is based not on how much i possess but how i impact others.

i really find nothing more amazing than being able to do things for others that make them smile. i’m all for doing good, and giving back to the society. i know that everything i own, doesn’t belong to me. God gave me my life my possessions my family and friends and likewise he can take them away from me anytime.

i don’t worry much about how i’m going to die or when i’m going to cease to exist. it’s definitely easy for me to say that now because i’m young and only 23 but really, when i think about my life, i think about the plans He has for me.

if you ask me right now, how much of my life i want to offer up to God, i’d say everything. He’s blessed me tremendously and i’ve seen how events in my life that has taken place for a reason. every single encounter and experience has led me to grow closer to God and make me hunger for Him more.

i’m that in love with the One above. He’s the only thing that makes sense. He’s the only thing that feels so right. He is my one and only. My dear Father, God, best friend, You mean the world to me and i want to love others the way you love me. Help me to do that and help me to make others happy. there’s enough suffering in this world. i want to do my part to turn frowns into smiles. perhaps i can do that through my humble talents; through my writing, through food….
