"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal." - Matthew 6:19-20
Due to my past pomposity, I lived to collect as many medals, trophies, accolades, etc. as possible. Perhaps to feel good about myself, or maybe to attain that elusive feeling of exhilaration and self-importance by being at the top. Cleaning my room yesterday made me realise that all these are just temporary and 5 years down the road they are nothing more than alot of extra things to dust and clean. So I have resolved to just be happy this year. Not insanely so [but judging from the rate we're going in Lasalle, it may be a possibility], nor the 'floating-on-a-bed-of-cloud-singing-la-la-la-24/7' type of happiness, but pure happiness that derives from knowing God and being contented with the simplest things, and to spread this happiness to others as well. *thinking happy thoughts*
