Guy Sebastian - Taller Stronger Better

I've met the darkness
And held by the night
Lonely was there in my arms

I've been with broken
I've stand in her eyes
Emptiness left me this scar

But I heard Your voice
Calling me out of the cold

Chorus
Now I can live again
I have been chosen to run with the wind
I can go higher
I know I will soar
I'm taller I'm stronger
I'm better than before

I've walked some fire
So I could become
All that You said I could be

And now my breath has a reason
My sky has a sun
Cause In you I found love that I need

Your touch revived me
Cause your love that opened my eyes
(Back to chorus)

Bridge
Cause I broke through the rain
Stood through the storm
Now I know I'll remain
I can do the impossible
I can reach the unreachable
It's my time I will rise
And live!

The Grey Area

What's worst than being black or white? It's being grey.

Being grey means that you're being neither black nor white. You stay there, stagnant. Your whole life is basically just a series of routines that you're fine with, but you're longing for something more.

As I typed this, just now my partner in crime rang me. Told her about the miracles she just experienced and how good God is. I was amazed, speechless.. you name it. It's always amazes me how God just work miraculously through people's lives. My church has been conducting a 'ROCKStimony' series about miracles that church people experienced in their lives recently.

For me, I have been waiting for that to come.
And still am.

To be honest, my life's pretty much like the grey area I mentioned before. I'm fine with it, but I want something more. Something real. Something BIG.

Don't get me wrong, I'm genuinely happy for the miracles my friends had. But I couldn't stop wondering... where's mine? I admit, I haven't been living the greatest life as a Christian, especially in these moments. Lots of problems, troubles coming my way. And sometimes I couldn't help it but ask... "where are You?????"

I know I shouldn't complain.
I know there's always more to life.
But why do I feel this way?

Mungkin masalahnya bukan di dunia, tapi di saya sendiri...

The biggest enemy is not everybody else, but it's yourself.
dammit.

The Five Factor Personality Test

Just a thought.

This couple of weeks have been one of the most hardest weeks of my entire life. Coping up with work, earning not-so-much money, and spending it all on BILLS! (i hate bills!!!! >_<) Trying so hard to be strong for those I loved the most. Sulking it deep down inside. Telen pil pahit. Had a talk with my partner in crime here in Perth. About how we should live our lives. About where we really belong. About what we should do in the future. About how we define happiness.

I just realized that happiness is defined differently for each person. I guess it's depend on what type of person you are. Are you ambitious? Are you sentimental? Are you brave?

My partner in crime, she defined her happiness is when she can build a huge business and make a lot of money out of it. As long as her bank account looks good -- that's what she said. That's the kind of person she is: business-minded. She's not afraid of challenges in business (she's excited about it :P) and very very ambitious. A true choleric, I guess.

Then she asked me.. what is MY definition of happiness?

I've been pondering about this, and I realized... My definition of happiness is to love and being loved in return (this is not ngopi from Moulin Rouge lho yahhh.. i'm serious!) Being with those I love lifted up my spirit, as if I can touch the sky. I'm not afraid of anything when my loved ones are around, and I can't imagine my life without them.

Don't ask me to build business or maen2 saham and stuff, cuz I don't think I'm interested in those kind of things (at least for now) I don't think I'm build as a career woman (except for those kewl chic fashion editor. hahahaha) or as my dear marbles boss puts it "ibu rumah tangga buanget".

But hey, there's nothing wrong with that kan?
