As my birthday prowls closer, I've never expected much gifts or party or anything. Maybe even none at all. And as I was having that meal between lunch and dinner with my dad, he suddenly asked me "What do you want for your birthday?"
Most kids in the right mind would just blurt out whatever they really desire; PSP, PS3, Xbox360, brand new computer. The whole lot, ya know? But it has been two weeks and I still have no blinking clue what I really really want.
I've really tried sitting down, just thinking about what I really want. Until probably recently, I realized what I truly desired from my dad.(Maybe not recently, but for like the past 4 years perhaps?). No fancy gifts, no expensive stuff. Besides, the one thing I want from my dad is priceless.
It's his love. His compassion. His company. How can money buy you those? How wonderful a gift it would be! And after Friday's music video, I was feeling abit down admittedly, because I realize that all this while, this past.. 7 years perhaps, all that has happened in my family, God still loved me the same as he did when I was born.
It's impossible to fathom such love. It's indescribable, wordless. Perhaps that is how the phrase "Action speaks louder than words", because God sent his son to die for us. Not only that, he put people in our lives that love us for who we are. People in the church, the only real friends that can speak the truth in love, not to spite you, not to discourage you.
Think I'll end here, my mind is pretty groggy right now.

This is one of my favorite advertisements by far.
I find it cute when at the end the astronaut is flipping end over end. Obviously it's different from the one on Discovery Channel. I just LOVE the song so much.
Anyway, I've recently become a Harry Potter addict. There's this certain style that J.K. Rowling uses that always forces me to continue scrolling down instead of putting my phone away while I'm eating. Yes all 7 books are on my phone. Just finished Goblet of Fire and hoping to advance onto Order of the Phoenix.
