This may be a rather personal post, but I do think that it brings up a few good ideas.
With the recent events, I’ve come to realize and question a few things.
I realized.. First, as good as advices given from close friends, in the end, it’s not about the most popular advice you’ve gotten. But you have to decide for yourself and create the ending in your personal movie, and with the faith that God takes care of all (without sounding too “religious”).
I question.. I’ve written a “Personal Statement” awhile back, inspired from reading “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen Covey. My Personal Statement begins with this “Always maintain integrity in action, in decision, in interaction.” But where do you draw the line for integrity? Is there a line for integrity and crossing over to the dark side? I suppose that would be decided by you, your perspective, and most importantly, the foundation of your believe system (if you have one). What is integrity? I am still trying to figure out. It may come from conversations between me and my Creator.
I decided.. Awhile back I was pondering whether dating is just a Number’s Game? If you were to ask me 2 months ago, I would’ve told you that dating is probably just a number’s game. It is like cold calling, getting job interviews, and landing a job. When someone rejects you, you should not take it personally or feel like the whole world is collapsing, because it is just numbers.. That sounds rather cold and jaded? Today if you were to ask me the same question, I would tell you in a heart beat, that dating is not a Number’s Game, but it is Divine.
So, the final question is, do I fulfill the “Family Prophecy”, or do I go with the Unexpected and take a chance in the unkown? I don’t have an answer. However, I’ve figured out steps with integrity (I think) that I can take that will lead me to a conclusion (or so I hope so).
and this is faith – What God has put together, no one can separate.
