What Hurts The Most?


Recently, i have made this blog more like my personal diary..perhaps, you can consider it as an online diary. I feel comfortable expressing my thoughts and feelings by blogging... I believe sharing some worth while experience would be good as we can share ideas and opinions on it.

WHAT HURTS THE MOST?
for me, it was being so close with someone who will eventually walk out of your life...


Anyways, that was from my point of view. Have you all ever heard of the song Rascal Flatts-What Hurts the Most? It was a hit in all radio stations worldwide in 2005-2006. Back to back hits...3-4 years ago. Well, it is once again my favourite song... after experiencing something which had changes part of my life. This song kind of reflecting my feelings at this very moment... Yes, i am hurt....


Sometimes in life, you cant always have what you want...and it all depends on which situation you are going through. What happened to me back then was very complicated... but yet, I'm still happy to be able to live through those memorable moments.

Imagine this situation: A little child was strictly forbidden to go to the playground... somehow, he manages to find his way out after he went through many obstacles...finally he plays cheerfully at the playground. Can you imagine how happy he felt at that moment? Total freedom and satisfaction after his stuggle. All his sadness and fear are vanised instantly...he just wanted to enjoy that moment he had at the playground. For he truly appreciate and cherished those happy moments..

That's how i felt back then... I was confused of my own feelings. My feelings are all mixed up that through leaps and bounce.... I had to give up for good. It means here that, I'm lifting up my hope to God. I believe He always know's whats best for me at the end of the day. I have to set my priorities right and it was a very tough descision. I know that only time will heal me. I pray that (someone special to me) will be blessed with a beautiful and a prosperous life and yes, a succesful career in the near future.

So dear friends.. i conclude here that. LOVE is not all about being there for each other but it is also sacificial... As the saying goes, "if you want to love, you have to risk getting hurt.." Isnt' that true...? Something to ponder about...




Rascal Flatts
What Hurts The Most lyrics


I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don’t bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out
I’m not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I’m ok
But that’s not what gets me

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin’ to do

It’s hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But I’m doin’ It
It’s hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I’m alone
Still Harder
Getting up, getting dressed, livin’ with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken

What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do

What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do

Not seeing that loving you
That’s what I was trying to do

Second Chance?



English has always been my favourite lesson of the week after a whole bunch of 80% calculation+ 20% theory of my civil engineering subjects.. This is only lecture where i get to sit back, relax and enjoy my lesson without thinking too much on formulas and laws.

However, in English Lab today... I have discovered something very meaningful. It touches my heart and i felt how it actually surrounds our daily life. We were asked by our lecturer to be in a group of 5 members and we had to prepare a slide show on expressing our opinions. The topic of the opinion was:

Does everyone deserve a second chance?


After my group members and I share opinions on this topic... we strongly agree that everyone deserve a second chance..and i really emphasized on this.. YES! everyone deserve a second chance. I would like to share on my opinions and my friend's as well on giving SECOND CHANCE.


I feel that it hurts when someone u
LOVE and TRUST betrayed you in one way or another. It is a human nature to failed each other and we can can never run away from making mistakes..

IMPERFECTION

perfectly describes us...human beings.

As a handmade of God, we must also able to FORGIVE each other. I believe God LOVES us so much that he forgives us from our sins and accept us in repentance. With that, we should be able to FORGIVE one another.

Everything happens for a
REASON. Sometimes in life, someone we CARE about had DISOWNED our trust. Perhaps it's due to unavoidable circumstances which they leads them to failed us. Do accept their explanation in an OPTIMISTIC way and give them way to REPENT from their wrong doings. As a saying goes, HELPING others by FORGIVING is a way to help you by LEARNING from their mistakes.


Sometimes, we are stuck in a complicated situation which we cant help to handle but wait for the right time to settle everything..or in other words..to come clean. So yeah, life is not all about
EMOTION but also based on SENSIBILITY.

There's a proverb saying:

Always be HUMBLE and GENTLE. Be PATIENT with others, making allowance for each others fault because of your LOVE.



HOWEVER...


If someone has betrayed your second chance...it is
TIME for you to be more CAREFUL with him or her in the near future. This act eventually reflects his or her PERSONALITY. So, don't feel REGRET about giving him or her that precious chance..for you have learn and gain a lesson out of your KINDNESS.

Welcome aboard MV Doulos...

Few weeks back, I went to visit the famous MV Doulos ship which once again comes back to Kuching. It was a mind-boggling experience for me because that was my first visit to MV Doulos.



Here is the brief introduction on MV Doulos ship:

Constructed in 1914, MV Doulos is the world's oldest active ocean-going passenger ship. During the ship’s lengthy career, MV Doulos has sailed under four distinct names: Medina, Roma, Franca C and Doulos.

The ship has been utilised for four very different purposes: freighting goods, transporting emigrants, for cruises, and most recently in the ship’s present role as a vessel to bring knowledge, help and hope to the people of the world.

During its lifetime, MV Doulos has twice been extensively renovated and upgraded, and undergone two engine replacements. MV Doulos has been registered in the United States of America, Panama, Italy and Malta.


The meaning of the Vessel Names:

  • Medina: The name of a river in Texas, USA. The Neches, her sister ship, was also given the name of a river.
  • Roma: This name was selected because the ship carried pilgrims to Rome in 1950, the Roman Catholic Holy Year.
  • Franca C: Like all the ships of the Costa fleet, she was named after a member of the Costa family.
  • Doulos: A Greek name meaning bond servant or slave. Volunteers on board Doulos seek to serve God and the nations they visit.

and here are the pictures of my visit:




meet the siblings:
everard & michelle...with mv doulos ship







there were many flags of different countries worldwide aboard on doulos flag pole.. right in front of me that day was the australia's flag..hehe!






me being naughty..trying to act like one of the ship crew...climbing those stairs with high heels???







I supposed this is one the mini life boat for the ship crews in case of emergency... or perhaps it is for transporting other goods and stuff?





this is the scenario of bookstore in Doulos ship...it has various collections of books for all walks of life..







Hey hey...a nice book from the childrens' corner. Besides selling books, CD's and other souvenir gifts are also on sale.



Overall, this MV Doulos ship fascinates me not only because it reminds me of the famous Titanic ship but also the volunteerism spirit of evangilization of the ship crews from different countries. It was a truly fantastic experience for me.
