but i'm just so tired to write them all down, the burdens and the thoughts are too heavy.

the ability to hit the highest peak and the lowest valley in a matter of hours is just.. mind twisting. but then again, that is how human emotions is like. either your emotions decide or your decisions decide your emotions, its a tough choice.

that's something i realised as i was running the Mizuno wave run 2009, 16km. oh can you imagine this? reaching the water point and hoping to drink some H20 only to be told that there is no more cups! i wonder how they plan..

yes sometimes when i run, then i'll be inspired to write sermons (a bit hard ah no pen and paper plus unstable sweaty hands) and one of the sermons i thought of is Running the Race. and one of the points is what happens when stitch (again not the alien) comes. Stitches can be attributed to several causes, the well known ones being either too much intake of water or the lack of stretching. whatever the cause, its the reaction that counts when stitches hit. it can be so painful that you either choose to run slower then normal, stop completely and give in OR decide to run on and stretch along the way.

its easier to run slower.. it is easier to stop completely but it is not easy to decide to run on and stretch, the breathe out on alternate foots, swing the body in the opposite direction of the stitch. along this race, we will face stitches but a little stretching never hurts. cause stretching will take away the stretch and give us the momentum (another sermon point) to run on.

perhaps today the stitch might seem overwhelming and super duper painful.. but how about asking God for some stretching? :) it'll help overcome the stitch and plus make you an ever better person.

hang in there!

oh yes i enjoyed myself tremendously.. different group of people that i normally don't hang out with..but it was really fun. never knew that it could be that much fun.. relaxing, no tension, no stress, just being myself.
