check out my new blogskin!! i love it!! thanks beryl!! haha sure seems we're all still stuck in time eh? i know at least 4 other people who've got telunas photos as their handphone wallpaper too. haha guess it just goes to show that we're all drawn to sheer beauty, perfection, and paradise really...it's as close to it as most of us got i think and we're not quite ready to leave it behind.
so we try to remain living in it, even if it's just stopping for 5 seconds to let a snapshot of it flash through our mind and sigh and smile to ourselves...WUTS, or the sunrise/set, or those random conversations out on the jetty, or the beach, or the crystal clear water, or jumping off the jetty....guess that's kinda how life is - once we chance upon something that seems so perfect, it's hard to let go of it. so we hold on...and hope to go back someday.
but then maybe...it was good only coz it was fleeting. coz it was a getaway from what we're so used to. or coz we only remember selective bits of it and we romanticize the entire experience. perhaps it doens't matter though...it was just good while it lasted and it sure left it's mark. i think i'm one step closer to seeing where toille's coming from when he talked about his passion in life to help others see life and beauty and all that there is to appreciate about it. oh that these experiences would serve to whet our appetite for Paradise and everything else that He allows and wills.
anyhow, it's been a pretty intense weekend so i'm glad it's over. again the timing's been perfect. couldn't be much better than this, so for that i'm thankful. guess i've come out of it clearer about things than i have been in awhile...came to some important realizations too and i guess i'm just gonna have to deal with them with or without a brave front. perhaps the greatest irony of it all though, is that by keeping quiet all this while thinking i was protecting myself, i was setting myself up for the opposite. perhaps that's the one thing to take away.
and eunice ends here :
