i just received news about aloysius being admitted to ICU, and about fanjun's dad passing away. i feel so emotional now. partly because i'm worried for aloy & sad for fanjun. partly because it struck me really hard that there're much more important things in life than good grades or good designs. 

there i was yesterday afternoon feeling so stressed up & worried to tears about my project submission, feeling so doubtful about my future as a designer.. little did i realise then that as compared to health, family & friends, those things don't really matter that much anymore. 

as what sel said, "it got me thinking like while we pray for exams and grades and things like that, i realised i rather give up all that just for my family and friends to be fine." her words spoke straight to my heart.

i don't even have the heart to continue my project now. sudden thoughts like what if my parents were to leave me just like that, or what if my close friends like sel & jac were to collapse just like that.. how would i feel? the thought of that just makes me wanna cry. 

oh, the fragility of life..

but i firmly believe that God is faithful. by His grace and by His mercy, we will all overcome these together. no matter how rocky this path is, no matter how treacherous this storm is, He will lead us through. i pray that with His healing hands, He will wake aloy up, heal him and be with him. i'm sure God will listen to all our earnest prayers. & i also pray that God, our Comforter will bring comfort, peace & joy amidst the pain in fanjun's family.

in Jesus' name i pray, amen.
