Why?

I woke up around 9 something this morning, i knew i'd to start training but i was just too lazy to even go for a jog, and everyday i tell myself that ive to start eating healthily to loose the excess weight, but instead i end up binging even more than the previous day, subsequently adding more to my weight.

Im just so fed up with the way life has been for me, cause there's so much more to this life than trying to score strings of A's every semester, or constantly worrying about my weight and physical appearance, or struggling to live up to everyone's expectations. Life becomes a drag, and not a tad close to what God intended it to be for us.

Many times i forget that God's opinions and views of me should only be my real concern, because the mind is easily deceived by what the world has to say, and i end up living life according to the standards of the world and man.

When i compare God's standards to the world's, the gap is as wide as the ocean. Its makes the ways of man look silly, stupid and insignificant. Yet God made it possible for man, He bridged the gap, so that we could come to Him and be more like Him. After all, we are created in the image of God, but why do we constantly behave the way that we are? Why are we so conscious and intimidated by the world, when we have God that is beyond all things in this world, in us?

Do you ever wonder, why?

When i start thinking too much, i love listening to the song below.. to remind myself about God's love, that nothing else matters.

Steven Curtis Chapman - All About Love.mp3
All about Love by Steven Curtis Chapman

We've got CD sets and videos, radio and TV shows
Conferences, retreats and seminars
We've got books and magazines to read on everything from A to Z
And a web to surf from anywhere we are
But I hope with all this information buzzing through our brains
That we will not let our hearts forget the most important thing

Is love, love, love, love, love
It's all about love, love, love, love, love
Everything else comes down to this
Nothing any higher on the list than love
It's all about love

Now they're fighting in the middle east
And they're fighting down on Seventh Street
And there are fights in my own house on given days
It's like something's lurking deep inside
That can't seem to be satisfied
But life was not meant to be lived this way
'Cause it's true for every man and woman
Every boy and girl
That our only hope for living here together in this world

Is love, love, love, love, love
It's all about love, love, love, love, love
Everything else comes down to this
Nothing any higher on the list than love

This is the reason we were made
To know the love of our Creator
And to give the love He's given us away
Yeah, the Maker, and the Father, and the God of everything
He says to love, love, love
He says love, love, love
Love, love, love
'Cause after all, it's all about love

Gods says love, love, love, love, love
It's all about love, love, love, love, love
Everything else comes down to this
Nothing any higher on the list than love
'Cause after all, it's all about love

That's right, yeah (laugh)
Woo!
It's all about, yea yea
It's all about
All about love, love, love, love, love
It's all about love, love, love

After all don't you know?
That it really all comes down to love
After all don't you know that
Gonna tell you what it's all about, yeah
Yeah, it's all about love
Yeah, it's all about love, yeah
It's all about love,
Love, love, love

There is much MUCH more to life than you think. I know what life as a routine is, trust me. But stop what you're doing for a minute and just look around. You are greatful for what you are today and where you're at today and that's something to celebrate about. Life is still a bore,but the best is yet to come!We still have graduation and becoming nervous recks a minute before our first job interview, an aisle to walk down on, days full with cries,screams and laughter and also praying that polution will not wipe out the entire human race in the year 2020! The climate change is worrying me lah,sorry ya. So CHILL. Life's good. If not,it'll get better soon.
