Ever wonder what "life" means? Does it differentiate the contrast of alive and dead? Or does it mean the activities we go through on a daily basis, up and down, that is preconditioned by the world around us?
Have you ever wonder what "life" is in your own words instead of the "life" that you exported from the world around us.
To me, to have life is to have a purpose. With that purpose, only can i live my life to the fullest. We cannot make our own purpose, because it is the purpose that makes us.
Here's a lyric of a song i want to share.
Storyside B: More to this life
Round and round this world we go
Forming truths from what we know
It could never be foretold
What will happen tomorrow
Things we see right now will change
Our lives will never be the same
Praying hallowed be thy name
And I am lifted from my shame
And I know this will not be in vain
A moment in time has passed before my eyes
There's more to this life, there's more to this life
I'm struggling to fight the reasons we cry
There's more to this life, there's more to this life
Time will tell as hours go
The truth inside will soon unfold
Revealing secrets as we grow
Into a brand new tomorrow
The plan is already in place
Transcending love through time and space
Strong and humbled by His grace
Catching tear drops from my face
And I know I will not be ashamed
A moment in time has passed before my eyes
There's more to this life, there's more to this life
I'm struggling to fight the reasons we cry
There's more to this life, there's more to this life
And if it's peace you seek
Let me wash away the blood that's drawn
And soak up all the tears upon my sleeve
And if you'll kneel with me
Well I will pray for our forgiveness
To the only One who'll truly make us clean
A moment in time has passed before my eyes
There's more to this life, there's more to this life
I'm struggling to fight the reasons we cry
There's more to this life, there's more to this life
There is a meaning to "life". We cannot give it meaning by our own views and ways. Just as our body's need of oxygen to survive, so does our life's need in Christ.
It is not an option, neither an advice, nor an alternative. It is a need.
Everyone needs Christ. The result of the absence of Christ is what we see in today's world.
So i encourage you to think about your "life" and what it means.

Love Quotes
I was browsing the net. One thing led to another and i ended up reading love quotes. Some are really good.
Anyway, enjoy.
“If I never met you, I wouldn't like you. If I didn't like you, I wouldn't love you. If I didn't love you, I wouldn't miss you. But I did, I do, and I will.”
“Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was a choice, but falling in love with you I had no control over.”
“It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is the most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel.”
“True love cannot be found where it truly doesn't exist, nor can it be hidden where it truly does.”
“I don't wish to be everything to everyone, but I would like to be something to someone.”
LOL
And my favourite of all......

"I just want to take this opportunity to express myself at this moment, to pray for peace of my mind and calmness for my heart.
I'm a step away from an emotional breakdown, a breakdown that i don't need at all. Being among lives that are constantly stolen and destroyed discourages me a lot. Watching the absense of God around my circle tears my heart. It's rather selfish that i take this burden upon myself to make it an obligation to care. I have no regrets for being. I care because i love.
The pain is sometimes just unbearable. The outcomes i see stirs up within and eats me. The joy sucked out of me, being stolen by a thief, giving the devil his foothold. Unfortunately, in my anger and sadness i sin.
I would just like to once again, pray for a peaceful mind and a calm heart, to be reminded that only God can change the hearts of others. My influences is compromised by my selfishness and thus is not sincere anymore. Prayer is the only weapon i have. In the midst of the situation, i know i am selfish for not being able to let go. I will, eventually."

Love needs no reason
1 Corinthians 13: 4-8
Love is patient,
Love is kind.
It does not envy,
it does not boast.
It is not proud.
It is not rude,
it is not self-seeking.
It is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects,
always trusts,
always hopes,
always perseveres.
Love never fails.
Love needs no reason.
It is not an emotion to be prompt when a stimuli is in place.
It is not a feeling that occurs from an action.
It is not a reflex.
It is not a thought that needs calculation of the situation.
It is not an action that requires labour.
Love just is.....
It needs no reason.
