Thank You

"Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful
and the end of mirth, is heaviness."

prov 14:13. how true...
sometimes our hearts are aching, but our faces are smiling. and how naturally...

there're so many things in the world that are saddening.
everyday there're reports of sufferings... babies are killed, trafficked. there're deaths. there's the tsunami victims. murders. accidents.etc... on the personal level, there's disappointments. fears. sufferings. loss. betrayal. tears. -you name it-.

do you still smile inspite of all these mis-experiences? i am sure you can and you do. i know i can... but how about a real smile? let's call it the "say-peace-smile"... heh. not the kind of smile when we take photos and we say "peace"at the count of 3. but the kind where... hmmz... i know that everything IS ok, and in control... because everything is in His hands. there's really a sense of comfort in knowing that. and of course, a sense of peace...

besides, there are an equal or more no. of things that are better and are good! things that are sweet. happy. lovely. praiseworthy. n to be thankful for. n i just want to say... thank you! =)
