A flick of the switch brings light
Saturday, September 10, 2011
Learnt a really interesting analogy today. It expresses the attitudes that many of us have.A child is in a dark room, and he tells his mother he wants to see light, and so the mom tells him, go on the switch and you'll see light. The child refuses, saying, "No way. Until I see the light then I'll turn on the switch."Quite like many of us, don't you think?We'd want, like, or desire to see something happen, change or come to pass. Yet many of us are unwilling to take the necessary step to do it. We often ask ourselves, why, why do we have to be one to make the first step. But as in the analogy, the law of electricity requires the switch to be turn on by an effort which in turns closes the circuit allowing electricity to pass through, thereby allowing light to be present.Perhaps we feel that shouldn't be made to turn on that switch, but then in what position do we then deserve to demand to see light. We wanna see the results before we decide whether we'll be turning that switch.Kinda foolish isn't it, but that's what we all are.Labels: life, thoughts

Not-so-average teen, deep thinker, perfectionist with quirky randomness. Trained in the art of sarcasm and nonsensical logic.
Overcoming the circumstances of the present, and the issues of my past,
striving in self-betterment with a moral balance with the hope of the fulfillment of the destiny to be a light for Christ in His likeness,
spreading the love of God as how He first loved us
==============================================================
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like You have loved me
Break my heart for what breaks Yours
Everything I am, for Your kingdom's cause
As I walk from earth into eternity
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Philosophy:
I like to think about life, especially pursuing on the concept of love. Not that lovey dovey romantic kind, but the affections we have for one another
that ties us together,strangers, friends, besties, family, that's the love I wanna know about. Love is the essence of life that ties us together,
love is what we were made for and to be, love is embracing the gift of the relationship with GOD.
