flexibility

this came to my mind when dad, aunt kay & I were on the way back from parkway on the bus (we got on a 170 and xxx wasn't too happy about something that happened. seats issue. ;)) -
the environment doesn't change for you, you adapt to it.commonly heard of, but doesn't hurt at all to remind ourselves frequently. getting upset (and shortening our lives, hahaha I always believe that anger does this), because we aren't comfortable with situations, at that moment will not make things any easier for us. so relax and learn to not get as worked up as we are over small things. it saps energy too. hahahaha. yes. :)
AND it's so apt as a reminder to me now. I AM BOILING. no fan can satisfy the amount of breeze and comfort I seek for (or am used to, rather). so yes I must adapt to this heat...until the repairman comes by. and I realised my nose runs every single morning with or without the air-con (we thought it was just all the dust and stuff)...still, I hope the docs will stop giving me zyrtec, which I'm quite sick of. HAHA.
ups and downs. life is as such huh. right now, God's allowing many things to fall into place and leading the way for me. no hardships (altho' we were called to 'suffer' as Christ did - 1 peter 2:21) for now, and true joy. happiness is temporary, joy (in Him) is everlasting. it's exactly why I'm seeking intimacy with him, or at least have the intention. with intention comes action (sometimes, but yes it will in my case I'm sure). He's worth it and I'm worth it too. so are you! Christ is my source of joy, is He yours yet? :)
