"you read all kinds of books and see all kinds of movies about the man who is obsessed and devoted, whose focus is a single solid beam, same as the lighthouse and that intense, too. it is heathcliff with catherine. it is a vampire with a passionate love stronger than death. we crave that kind of focus from someone else. we’d give anything to be that “loved.” but that focus is not some soul-deep pinnacle of perfect devotion - it’s only darkness and the tormented ghosts of darkness. it’s strange, isn’t it, to see a person’s gaping emotional wounds, their gnawing needs, as our romance? we long for it, i don’t know why, but when we have it, it is a knife at our throat on the banks of greenlake."

i love chancing upon quotes that echo what you feel. i feel like the younger me was always searching for that kind of obsession/devotion, but as you grow older you discover what you really want. it's been about a year since i last blogged and i don't know why i decided to again.
it's the mugging month and life is pretty miserable. i find it quite funny that you suddenly see an influx of people posting bible verses and other things during this month; learning to depend on God in times of need. but makes me wanna laugh abit because it feels like mugging is the worst thing that we all go through in life; how it's the time of greatest 'need'. reminds me of how sheltered and lucky we are, and how smooth-sailing our lives are. mugging month also forces you to narrow down your social circle and just spend time with those few who are truly close to your heart. and you learn how God works through them to bring us comfort, strength, and encouragement. small joys and little gestures of love keep us going (: jiayou everyone!!
