:: Thankful, thankful, thankful.. ::

So the whole world knows i had good results for my A levels. but few may see that i'm really not taking any credit for myself. partly because i know other friends have studied harder than me.. but mostly, i thank the Lord for His grace upon me. i never deserved this blessing, but somehow He saw it fitting to give it to me. all i can do now is to be ever-so thankful, and continue to work hard for His glory.

it's difficult. you go up to someone who did badly, and the person tells you "aiyah, you get 3As, so clever." in a rather bitter way. i don't blame them for being upset.. sometimes i wish they wouldn't take it out on me, but my results don't put me in a very good position to comfort others because they feel i cannot relate to their feelings.

i once did badly.. i scored 14 for my O's, which is a below-average score in my above-average school. i still thanked the Lord for that. it could have been worse.. but i worked hard. i did my tutorials everyday, i was vocal in class and paid attention. i made sure that whatever i was taught today, i learnt it today. i didn't wait till tomorrow when my "don't knows" piled up towards the sky. i thanked the Lord for keeping me consistent and diligent in my work. and it paid off.

i hope my friends may learn to trust in the Lord that He will direct you in the path He knows is best for you. He is the only One who can make everything seem ok. knowing that He is in control has been one of the facts i've lived by. people wonder why i'm so optimistic all the time...

i'm not.

i know that bad things do happen.

i'm just faithful.
