Had a quiet close to the week. Decided to lunch alone again on friday at work. Was craving for the curry noodles again...so went for it :)
Decided to take a walk at clarke quay after the meal. Nice quiet moment after lunch...definitely a good change of scenary from the rushing and noise of rushing society....soaking in the quietness.
Mmmm...met some birdy friends along way....
Say hi to Bobby :D
Here's Ben and his friend, Belinda
Here's.....err.....Bigbird :DBack at office...received a super mini char siew pau from a colleague. Nice of her man.
Meet little char siew.Check out the size of that cute little bugger.
Mmm...really thankful for the kind colleagues around me. Though some of them can get REAAAL whiney about some stuff...still great overall. Reminds me of my poly attachment. Really a gracious blessing to have them.
So passed a quiet friday.
--------------------------------------
Went back to my secondary school for the voting day on sat. Really feels nice though just for a short while. Brings back memories man.
Went for late lunch with family after it. Finally had the chance to try out Cafe Cartel at tampines. Mmm...the food was pretty nice.
We didn't really talk much over the meal though. A quiet meal it was.
Thus went a quiet saturday.
--------------------------------------
Maybe it was the quietness of the days that had passed. Somehow it made me want to relate with the youths. But I guess I tried a little too hard today at certain times. Many a times I would do a little more, talk a little more, only to question myself afterwards, "What was that for Deqi??".
Somehow, I just couldn't quite connect with all of them today. I don't know why...felt out of place and extra. Stayed back with some of them in church after lunch. Had some time chillin out with yanquan and worked on the drums.
Reminds me of the time back then when there was this boy, eager to learn and pick up drumming, both interest and unto the Lord. The beats and techniques just somehow kept coming and running through his mind. Staying back alone in the place one sunday afternoon, playing the drums....he felt such joy, excitement, peace...with the Lord, all at the same time.
Today...it felt different. Amidst the music and sound, it was quiet within me....like...something was lacking. It was quiet within, yet not at peace. For all the people, things, quietness I had around me, it's not what I needed....that brings peace.
A quiet sunday has passed.
A search for His peace, to begin.
