I cannot but nod in agreement to what Uncle Kia Wang preached over the pulpit yesterday, that the young people of today live in a "Me, myself and I" generation. I am particularly guilty of a few things he mentioned: broadcasting my feelings on Facebook, blog entries etc. Save for Twittering and posting YouTube videos about myself, I am really quite self-absorbed! ): He also mentioned that most of the blogs are always full of people ranting and being emo, basically to gain sympathy from readers of the blog. I can't deny that I do that at times too, and lately, I think I have not been very positive in my writings.
However, I beg to differ that all blogs are like that because I have come across many blogs that are inclined towards raising political awareness, blogs that have entries that are tremendously thought-provoking, even those that post very helpful reviews about movies and books that are possibly useful for many. There are numerous of blogs that dedicate their entries to praising the Lord and giving daily testimonies about the grace of God in their lives (which was my intention of this blog initially, but i guess my self-centredness got the better of me ): )

Anyway, note to self: be positive! :D My devotional journal for today has this part where it says: You Become What You Think.
An excerpt:
"Your positive or your negative lifestyle will indeed affect every function of your body. If you dwell on negative things, you will spout negative words and have negative facial expressions and body gestures. Being negative keeps you unproductive and focusing on self. When you think negatively, you simply do not accomplish as much in a day as you think positively."
REJOICE IN THE LORD ALWAYS. I WILL SAY IT AGAIN: REJOICE! -Phil 4:4
God's grace is sufficient for me :)
