What can compare to His love?
Should I say that His love is as gentle as the setting sun?
Slow and without haste, yet making a big impact.
Should i say that His love is as gracious as the man who forgives, no matter how wronged he is?
Should I say that His love is as unconditional as the parents who gave everything there is to give to their children,
With no thoughts of repayment?
Should I say that His love is as strong as the hard minerals abundant?
Which no natural elements can break it apart.
Should I say that His love is neverending
As the boundless galaxy which seems to have no curbs?
Should I say that His love is as merciful
As the high king who shows tolerance to his unruly citizens?
Should I say that His love is overflowing
Like the water that has ran over the rim of the glass
What can truly compare to God's love?
There may not be anything at all.
The creator of all things could not possibly make an even greater thing than Himself.
And yet the ones that he created were the ones who can bring Him to His knees.
Why can't we simply invite Him into our hearts
Instead of living always in a self-centered world.
How can anything be compared to His love?

I had this really vivid dream this morning. It's abit creepy actually like a horror movie. I was stuck at a hostel with with a group of friends. For some reason we were unable to get out of it. We ran from one exit to another but mysteriously there is this girl with a small stature following us. She was floating easily in the air above us, watching us and stalking us. She actually had long dark flowy hair and a bluntly cut fringe. And then we gave up escaping. We knew that the girl was trying to prevent us from leaving the hostel. We came to a room with a double bunk bed. Strangely, everywhere we went it was dark. There was no light at all. We discussed about our chances of escaping from the damned building. Then one of us mentioned a bit of the mysterious girl's story. I didn't catch what the person has to say but i got the point that she was trapped in the hostel for some unknown reason and that she had been by herself since a long time ago as the hostel was no longer being used. At that time I felt sorry for the girl and then the girl just appearred. In fact I can even recall her exact location in my dream. i felt for her at that point and I actually climbed down the bed and went to hug her. It was not a tight affectionate hug but still I put my arms around her I then I said to her in my nicest tone. I said that I understood how she felt, always having to get by the long days by herself. I said that I knew that she had no friends and I even added that if she was willing, we could all be her friends. She responded and her face actually had some resemblance to a human expression. If I'm not wrong, she was touched that someone actually knew how she felt. Then she just became more humane. She stayed at the sam spot while me and my friends scambled to get out of the hostel. We reached the door leading to the outside compound of the hostel. To get out of the place we had to reach the gate. At the door, I can see some light. It was muffled light but still, it was nonetheless light. before we stepped out, a friend asked me.He asked why did I do that, why did I say all that things to that creepy girl. I replied, a bit ashamed of myself, that I had actually lied to that girl. I was saying all those things just to get a chance to get us all out of there. it was cruel but I had to do it. Otherwise there is no way we were going to leave. On the way to the gate (We were finally out in the open, exposed to the relieving sunlight), we were creeped out by the shoutings of the girl. She kept repeating,"Don't go.. don't go..." Maybe it was in mandarin, I'm not sure. But the thing that I'm very sure about is the fact that she had a miserable tone. I guessed it was that she had thought she could keep us as friends but now we were abandoning her. We quickly made our way away from that place. It occurred to me why the girl was unable to come stop us herself if she wanted so badly to keep us. I supposed she was still emotional after listening to my words. She was a full-fledged ghost before, with an empty void in her deprived of any human feelings. However she was more 'down-to-earth' now as in she encountered fresh emotions again by what I've said to her since I had struck a chord in her heart. We went back to school and I was distraught with the incident. While the teacher was teaching, I just stood up and said loudly and daringly that I had something to say to the whole class. My classmates were shocked as I had always been a very quiet girl. Without waiting for the teacher's reply, I just went to the front and beat my fists against the desk in front of me. I was so consumed by my own thoughts that I didn't care about how my classmates thought about me. I just wanted to be relieved of the urgency of the matter. I said loudly to my stunned classmates. They had been there with me in the building. They had experienced the whole incident and they had witnessed the whole thing. So why were they so muted and stoned. Didn't they have something to say about it too? i emphasised that what I was going to say later on would be very important and that they had better listen carefully by putting pauses between every word in my sentence. However unexpected my classmates were pissed off that I'm trying to tell them what to do. All of them went away and to my relief, rachel pek was still there sitting primly and looking intently at me. I knew that she was indeed a good friend as she knew that i really needed a listening ear. i thanked her. Later on while I'm going home, I saw that a part of our school building was just broken off. Students were crushed by the heavy debris and everything. Almost everyone in my school was killed in tragic accidents. All except me and a few lucky people died. I was so confused. I wondered if the girl was responsible for this. Maybe she wanted to take revenge or something. However I thought that if she wanted to vent her frustration she should had took it out with me since I was the one who lied to her.

Yupps this is the super vivid dream which I had. Really! I was quite spooked out when I woke up and when I realised it was a dream when I saw that I'm in my room, I was so relieved. Relieved that I didn't go through that creepy and horrifing story. Thank God. To me it was really creepy. I even had goosebumps on my arms when I wrote about my encounter with the girl earlier.
Trapped and Alone
Standing alone in the heart of the universe
I felt lost
Everywhere I turn
There is not a soul in sight

I have no one to turn to
Not even one person at all
So alone I felt
Is there not even a person whom I can trust?
Misunderstood,
I tried to yell,
To say something
But explanations were futile.
They were useless
And then,
I lost my voice momentarily
Words clogged up in my throat
I can't take it anymore
I was caught in a whirlpool of thoughts
The taunts the insults and the shame
They seemed to follow me everywhere
I was trapped
In this neverending humiliation
Will there ever be a better tomorrow, I wonder
Today seems to br closing up on me
I tried to pull myself out of this despair
I gave a strong fight
But slowly, the strength in me just seems to deflate
I became ust an empty shell
With no fight left in me anymore
I thought that I could be consumed by the pain
Poignant pain thata seemed to tear my heart apart
I gave up.
It's the easier option
I gave myself up to the sinking mud
I went along with it
Willing myself to be drowned within
By my own pain
But mostly by the hopelessness of it all
Will there ever be a new ray of hope?
The darkness around me seemed so domineering
Surely nothing at all could pierce through it!
But then I saw a sparkle
The tiniest spot of light
I thought I was dreaming
How could a light appear in this inpenetrable darkness?
I have no time to wonder
The light wormed its way into my heart
Closed and unbudging before
My heart is now yielding
Is this the person who has finally come to save me?
Is this the one who would share my pain from now on?
Will there now be an end to this tiring charade?
Is that the end to my misery?
And the beginning of a renewed life?
One with freedom of no known boundaries?
For now,
I'm not going to let slip this chance
I'm ging to cling onto the ray of light with the last of my sanity.
For i know that
Finally I would not be alone.

You forsaked everything else
To come die for me
You endured humiliation
Sufferred at the hands of others
All because of me
I felt ashamed
I did nothing to deserve you and your love
Yet you came willingly to set me free
I longed to be embraced by you
The one who kows true love
And who loves me so much it hurts
When I seemed to forget you
You wait patiently at a corner
When I come before you face to face
Would I hate to stand in front of you
Knowing that I did nothing at all to glorify you
Knowing that I placed you away from my thoughts every night before I sleep
And knowing that I have not committed myself fully to you
I think that it woudn't matter in the end
No matter what happens.
Even as night is falling fast
I knnow that you would be at the end of the tunnel
Amidst all the darkness and loneliness
You would be there
Waiting faithfully
For me to hold onto you
And for me to declare your love always
