Wild PEaches and Sparkling Wine...

The dream of something unlikely has its own special name. It's called hope. Yet our courage for life's journey so often falters because we've lost our hope for heaven.

What do I want from life, really?
I don't seem to know.
Everything's falling into place at the moment. I'm going to be fully employed as a research assistant in the marine biology laboratory, NUS. I got a bunch of lovely new friends in the lab, many whom are christians. Dance ministry is growing and developing steadily under Pastor Jo and Li Huan's guidance. I got a bunch of gal friends who are like-minded and as passionate about seeing God's name glorified through dance and our lives. Little saints is going through a time of renewal, and God's bringing our cell into a new phase. Lots of novel challenges to be faced and old ways to be modified. Still, there is excitement in seeing God bring back the lost sheep, and how he's challenging the older ones to a deeper level of faith.

The problem must lie in me then.
Why do i feel so... disconnected somehow?
Lord Jesus, what is it like to live life to the fullest?
How does it feel like?

I need to start dreaming again. Amidst the newfound stability in life and the discipline that is required of the roles i presently hold, I need to be reminded of being well and alive. I wanna soar on the wings of an eagle, to feel the rush of cool air on my face and my hair getting messed up. I wanna frolick in the warm waters of the azure blue sea, with playful sea otters throwing their half-eaten clam shells at me. I wanna learn how to climb a tree, and spend a quiet evening with a loved one sitting next to me on the branches way up in the star-lit skies.
