Plants are shaped by cultivation and men by education. .. We are born weak, we need strength; we are born totally unprovided, we need aid; we are born stupid, we need judgment. Everything we do not have at our birth and which we need when we are grown is given us by education. (Jean Jacques Rousseau, Emile, On Philosophy of Education)
Another quote that i abstracted from what i read. Yeah it's true isn't it? we are shaped by the educational system that's is so much so that's why church have to teach well. Sound doctrine and holistic teaching as well.
I was at the end of my tether after the run i had with jeremy and alvin round 10 odd. God nv fail to send me friends. These are really good old pals. Eversince young. haha.. went to jog and manage to catch up with each other more over the table eating. supper. haha.. it's nice ah. then i suggested that next time when we grow up, we should all live on the same block and level. Then our wives will have cooking roster. so we just head over each other house for meals daily. haha.. quite funny. but then still good friends. opps. did i not tell you that usually i will have bouts of sleep during chinese exam and not this time. i sought of did my extreme best and God bless me. =) simply grateful. Sometimes i'm really at such losse ends that i become in the like minds of two. looking at peope just makes me stress at times. NOt really stress but sadens me bah. But i know i have a God that i can trust. That's it. A God that i can hold on to inspite of the tough trials. yeah. He's faithful huh. yup. my top blew off when i somehow looked at the condition of my table today. Ultra messy. Quite typical. Finally had time to clear it up. Yeah. I need you. Glancing through everything, i just want to say 'God i thank you for everything you have done.'
