Thursday night again

Thursday night reflections.

In the future, I want to publish a book. Not written by me. But written by all those people around me who's stories have inspired me. A little short story for each of them. It will be so cool if their stories can be shared.

I've been reflecting about heaven. The coolest thing about it will not be the streets of gold or even no pain and suffering. It will be the absolute intimacy and transparency we will have with God and with each other. I will be able to see your heart, and you can see mine. And we will enjoy each other and learn more and more without hiding anything. Without masks.

I hate hiding. Yet so many things have a need to be concealed. Because people misunderstand. Because we need to be 'wise'. Because we are ashamed. Because we don't know how to express ourselves. I don't know. A million reasons.

I hate hiding. I hate hiding. But true true intimacy is hard to find. True understanding rare.

That's why I really appreciate Rach and Nat at the moment. But the only way they could have provided this understanding and maturity and this trasnparency is because of the tough tough things they've had to go through. Thank you my beautiful friends and also edifiers.

Love Alicia...but....

I've loved Alicia Keys since I was a teenager. She's gorgeous, talented, with an impeccable image of ghetto funkiness plus classy elegance. Love her voice and love her ideas. But....the lyrics....have more often than not been ...disappointing. I do think this article provides accurate critique of her work.

There is still a chance for the 71,849 single men

I opened my facebook profile and LO and BEHOLD, I saw a string of comments, wall comments and msgs in my inbox congratulating me about my 'not-single anymore status'. Why? Because I decided to remove the 'single' listing on my Facebook profile. I merely didn't want to post it up anymore. A whim that resulted in... HILARIOUSNESS! Here are a couple of samples: "Charis has been woozy since thursday, is it luvvve??" "huh? o_O? is there something i don't know??" "so when u going to belanja us all makan??? >. "heh.... really!?....there are 71,849 single men in brisbane who will be very dissapointed... very.." "is this for real .. if so, congrats charis :-)" "Hey great news to hear, Congrats loh! By the way who is the lucky Guy?" " Hey. No longer single? Share some news. ;) " Man o man!
