The Phone woke me up in the morning, AGAIN! Remember the samsung phone episode? =P but this time it was a really sweet message at the right time. Cause i had driving lessOns in thE mOrning (which actually isn't a very good idea cause i'm sleeeeepy), and the message that rings forever wOkE me up at thE riGht tiME. Heez, Thanks Abby. =)
When you miss a bustop (or in my case, stopped before the right 1), and you're gonna be late, what do you do? ruN~ Which i did, but never did i expect that the lactic build up in my lEgs sincE thE Pasir Ris run (2nd time) was too mUch for me to handle. My legs were aching like mad when i reached thE cAr cEntrE. So lesson : Don't run too much when yOur lEgs aren't tuned up.
Spiritual Lesson: Giving is good, but giving too much without taking your rest in God and drawing strength from Him will burn you out really fast. So keep in check with God and love Him everyday. =)
Which leads me to my nExt point, while driving with aching legs, don't be nervous. Well, i was, and it surE wASn't fUn with thE cAr stAllinG twice on the road. With once not holding on to thE clutch bEforE startinG the car. -_- ''' (which will cause the car to jerk and move forward kinda in a nOt nicE way) So lesson : Don't be nervous while driving, and when starting car, remember to step on the clutch.
Spritual Lesson: Many times there are timEs where our "engines" stall, well, don't just stay there, start the "engine" and make sure the "clutch" is stepped on, the clutch being setting your focus on God, and when need help, ask your friends to help. Your "car" will move smoothly. =)
Up till now, i don't knOw if these are crap, but hope yOu guys understand. =)
Next up, while on the bus to VJC cell, was thinking about words. Ya know, words are really powerful, and how yOu use words, the tone, the choice of words, and the platform it is put across play a part in how the recepient of the word/phrase/sentence will interprete.
Choice of word: Be mindful of words you use. You might not mean any harm, but the choice of word can make a big difference. Scenario: If you mean no harm, and just wanna comment on how silly the person was.
1) So stupid~
2) So silly~
Well, 1) is a lot more demeaning and the word stupid itself has a really mean feel to it, while 2) is a lot more docile, and might even sound nice to some extent in other situations.
Tone: It's hard to give an example of it over here. But i hope yOu know. Yupz. Just take note of how you use the tone, and the lOudness. Makes a whole world of difference. In doubt just come and ask me for egs if yOu want. =P
Platform the words/phrase/sentences are made through: In today's world, generally there are 3 kinds of platform communication with peoplE is doNe through.
1: Face to Face
2: Phone
3: SMS/Internet
Face to Face: Best way of communication cause emotions, facial expressions, tone and feelings could bE fElt most easily through this.
Phone: Emotions could be hidden if wanted more easily, tone and feelings too. But still quite a good way to feel how thE pErsON is, and knOw what the person is talkiNG about.
SMS/Internet: Have to presEnt your messages in a very clear manner for the recepient to nOt misunderstand. Easy to conceal any emotions. Worst form of communication (to me) if emotional release is nEEded.
So just a word of caution when online or using SMS, use your words carefully, and punctuate with the appropriatE pUnctuatiOns to show the correct meaning.
Oh 1 more thing i thought of. Don't think too much. It's gOod to think about stuff, but only what's holy, good, edifying etc (ya noe that vErsE in the bible). Good to stimulate yOur brain too. BUT do not think unecessarily, cause it will distract you instead. Yup.
So yupz, that's what i thought of on the bus. K that's all folks. =)
