My Friends

I rmbed SX asking me if i have best friends.

My reply was no. I had a bad past which makes me think again who are my best friends except Jesus. Now i have friends, and the best i have i'll classify as Good friends! They're like my best friends too!

If you guys have added me in Friendster, my featured friends are considered my good friends!

I think i'll unconciously set a "criteria" for friends. HAHAHA.

However, to me, my good friends are always there when i needed them the most. Though i have God, but He gave me friends to be with too! to share my sorrow and happiness!

Today was a super bad day. It was so bad that i couldn't smile and put my heart into anything that i do. So much sadness and stress. At that time i just needed someone whom i can talk to. A listener. Sadly, i cant find any at the beginning. Such an aimless day. Imagine XY walking aimlessly... it's the first time today though. Thoughts running through my mind as i was roaming aimlessly around the neighbourhood.. somehow, i took the train towards Marina.

That was then i found my good friend! I always shared my thinkings and feelings with him.. despite those naggings i receives from him, i still regarded him as my good friend, good brother! He made the effort to meet me in town.. going crazy with me.. eating so much! i mean, other than time that he's put into this friendship, he definitely does put in money for the extra transport and dinner and ice cream.. He sacrificed his rest for me.

I'm not implying that a friend should do that much, put in so much money or whatever. but sometimes your presence just counts so much to someone who needs a listener ear. Maybe thats how we value a friendship?

Thanks to my other two good friends too! They've included me into their dating.. spent more time with me as a lightbulb.. becos they know i'm upset. Rach didn't ask anything much, neither did Ray. Yes, its true that your presence really makes a difference. They could spend time alone.. go home early and have a good rest.. saving the extra trip of alighting at khatib for my convenience.. Despite all these, they gave and sacrificed for me.

Thanks so much my friends, YQ and Rayyychel.

I started to reflect on the way home.. for their actions i know how much they value the friendship. how important am i to them. think again, how do you prioritise? if you consider me as your friend, will u be there when i need you? likewise, i'll prioritise too.

i give my word, anytime when they need me, i'll be there. :) my word to you guys. Thanks for making my day brighter!

Not forgetting my best best best friend! He died on the cross for me, bearing all my sin and shame. God sacrificed His only beloved Son.

How Great.. Is Our God!

It shall be a peaceful night, everything's gonna be alright!
