Absolutely amazing youth retreat 2018. It was so simple yet we got everyone to participate, we played, we laughed, we shared and we prayed. Got to talk to a few people about things I never would usually. Got to spend more time with the younger ones who are coming to youths and i really hope they will mix in comfortably.
So what's coming up next is probably gonna be slightly emo, so skip this if it bores you or there's enough emo in your life already.
Ever since the bromo trip i've been thinking about how this year's gonna be. 2017 started out exciting and a few things happened that made me really jaded about life in general. Didn't see a point in putting in so much effort for anything. Come 2018, new year, not necessarily a new start. Many things carry on from 2017. I don't find 2018 particularly exciting. If anything, i think it's gonna be tough. There are some things i'm afraid to even think about, afraid to confront my own sins. This fear is good, yet there are times it can be slightly overwhelming. I'm treading a few fine lines here and I really hope it'll all turn out alright.
Okay now back to the usual stuff! So, i think new year resolutions are really lame because I never ever stick to these far fetched ideas. I shall just note down some things that I feel a burden for currently. Oh wait, let me just clarify first, i haven't done it yet! So, perhaps in the next few days, i'll have some alone time to do some reflection. New year resolutions are always like this, if you ain't honest with yourself, they crumble like a sandcastle being stepped on.
I'm thankful for the reminders and the fellowship I've had during this year's youth retreat. Simple prayer for me today: pray that my relationship with God will be good this year.
