Was listening to the songs played by the Weepies the whole night till I woke up this morning. One of the songs entitled, 'The World Spins Madly On' really caught me.
This is one of the few songs almost every single person in the world can relate to at one point in their life. Everybody has those days where you wake up and you wish you didn't have to move, wishing for a second that you were dead. This song sums it all up. Life gets screwed up but you have to keep moving because life isn't gonna stop for you. The paths we've already created for ourselves may even prevent us from being in a friendship or relationship that we once had with the that certain 'someone'. But life goes on. It's a tough concept to have to deal with but I feel that it is necessary in being a stronger person.
Some of you who knew, I've been through the abyss the last few weeks. Some days I felt happy and other days I just felt like sleeping in my room... never waking up.
But guys, whatever tragic, unimaginable events life can throw at you, PICK YOURSELF UP! Life goes on! Learn from it and never repeat the same steps. :)
Oh one more thing, go get a Weepies album! Great stuff!

Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
I thought of you and where you'd gone
and let the world spin madly on
Everything that I said I'd do
Like make the world brand new
And take the time for you
I just got lost and slept right through the dawn
And the world spins madly on
I let the day go by
I always say goodbye
I watch the stars from my window sill
The whole world is moving and I'm standing still
Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
The night is here and the day is gone
And the world spins madly on
I thought of you and where you'd gone
And the world spins madly on.
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
I thought of you and where you'd gone
and let the world spin madly on
Everything that I said I'd do
Like make the world brand new
And take the time for you
I just got lost and slept right through the dawn
And the world spins madly on
I let the day go by
I always say goodbye
I watch the stars from my window sill
The whole world is moving and I'm standing still
Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
The night is here and the day is gone
And the world spins madly on
I thought of you and where you'd gone
And the world spins madly on.

hi Ming,
seems like you enjoy music n the lyrics we hear do affect our mind/feelings. i listen to all kinds of music but when i'm going thr a valley, i will deliberately choose to listen to good preaching n biblical songs. Cos His Word (thr songs) draws me closer to Jesus n mould my mind to His values. I like Hillsong cds and one of them is titled "Blessed". Check it out n share with me if you like their songs. The lyrics always point us to Jesus whom i know you love deeply :)
i guess you r going thr a period of grief/anger due to loss/betrayal. But dont let me wait too long to see the Ming who is cool, creative n crazily naughty n funny :P
The best way to "get back at that someone" is to live your life abundantly n meaningfully. Enjoy Rom 5 & 6 and one of Jesus best tonic 2 Cor 12:9
Cheers :)
