Yes... I know who holds the FUTURE!


I don't knowAbout tomorrow
I just live from day to day
And I don't borrow from its sunshine
For its skies may turn to gray
And I don't worry about my future
For I know what Jesus said
And today He walks beside me
For He knows what lies ahead
Many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to under-stand
But I know who holds tomorrow
And I know who holds my hand
One of my favourite hymn... it really describes my feelings now. I must say I am greatly touched by the encouragement from many of you. (to my students) I will be strong and I will draw strength from above and from those around me who are ever so concerned about me. Like what Pamela said... it may be the end of a chapter... Life must move on from here. Though I may not recover so fast, I am sure I will with His Help. Teaching is something I love and I'll pray I will continue to transmit this passion for learning to my students, both past, present and future.
Perhaps, this is a life lesson that I must go thru so that I can learn about God's Love and Faithfulness and ultimately, the joy when God revealed His eternal purpose for me. To all those who are concerned... do not worry... I will take good care of myself. Thank you for your friendship...

你在哪里?
这些年来如意不如意?
还快乐?
还单纯?
还美丽?
时光如何对你?

我在这里
人海中的一座岛屿
很平静
风平浪静
只除了深夜里
回忆会疯狂来袭

我很想
你你知道吗
如果可以
就让我再见你
美好微笑
清澈眼睛
好确定那持离只毁了我一个而已
我很想你听见了吗? woo~
这是唯一
我无解的困境
那些过去
不肯过去
不管我后来遇见多少人
只能叹息
都不是你
我只想爱你

我在哪里?
你会不会偶尔好奇?
有没有
曾经怀疑?
我说我会忘记只是种好意

Pity me not because the light of day
At close of day no longer walks the sky;
Pity me not for beauties passed away
From fields and thicket as the year goes by;
Pity me not the waning of the moon,
Nor that the ebbing tide goes out to sea,
Nor that a man's desire is hushed so soon,
And you no longer look with me on me.
This have I known always: Love is no more
Than the wide blossom which the wind assails,
Than the great tide that treads the shifting shore,
Strewing fresh wreakage gathered in the gales:
Pity me that the heart is slow to learn
What the swift mind beholds at every turn.
-edna st vincent millay

Mr Choy, time will heal all the wounds and try to diffuse the feelings that overrule your heart. It's the anticipation of a possible fairytale that stuck your mind into a wilderness that is bottomless. It's this anticipation that is surging inside with every perceptions. It's not easy to forget, it seems that it always revolves in the silent heart without any chances of a U-turn. Embrace it and seek a solace in the deepest corner of your heart that you've been ignoring these years. This feelings will dissipate with time but will still inevitably hurl inside your fateful mind. these are memories...

like marcus said, life has to carry on no matter what.

remember:
we rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; character, hope. and hope does not disappoint us.
[romans, 5:3-5]

x) no matter what, you have 37 ABUSED students rooting for you. XD

Tian Meng said...

Praise the Lord for your faith and trust in Him. For all things happen for a purpose and God has His reasons and knows what's best for you.

Stand firm.

hey mr choy!
you probably dont know me, i'm from 4G'04 :) but still, heard a lot about you from my friends in 4a 4c and 4j, people like pam amy cindy weichong...
you've really made a great impact in their lives, and i really thank you for that.
in fact, despite only the few lessons i had with you while you were relief-ing other teachers, i felt that i've learnt something from you as well.
continue being the lamp that guides the students. continue being the sun that shines in the darkest hours.
and lastly, in everything you do, put God first :) He will guide you just as you guide your students. He will bring you hope when everything seems down.
recover soon (:

wah i think i'm your oldest student here. hahaha... mr choy, just wanna let you know that you have a positive impact on your students, with you being so dynamic. it thus saddens me to know that you are no longer as positive as you were. very glad however that you are hopeful in the Lord, for with Him there is eternal hope. He has called us to be joyful in affliction, so choose to rejoice in this period for He has his plans, right!! (:

yanyue said...

Banheng... Yes, the Lord holds our future. This must have been a really difficult time for u but always remember that the Lord has plans for us, plans for our good, plans to prosper us and not to harm us. The Will of God will never lead us where the Grace of God cannot keep us. Do stay strong and positive. And as your friend, i promise to be there for u should u need a listening ear or a shoulder to cry on.
