You are alpha, omega, beginning and end
extrapolated sentimentalism/ happification – two very special individuals in my life are getting married (: i will tear when i see that girl in a wedding dress – that girl who showered nothing but care for me in those UK years. i will tear when i see that boy (man?) in his tux, our dear wei peng, kissing his bride. because i know he will be caring for her, selfless and committed in the years to come. why am i writing about this?
gawd knows. it has been quite an unplanned journey for me since returning to Singapore and some semblance of the memories from York that we had embedded in our heads, the friendships formed are really such welcome reprieves from the demands of Singapore, of civil service. whoever came up with the term ‘nostalgia’?! give the term some thought and really, you realise you’re not alone in finding a WORD that approximately describes why you are still awake at midnight, looking at pictures taken during the more happifying and contented chapters of your life.
you are holy; you are mighty; you are worthy of praise.
i will follow; i will listen; i will love you all of my days.
you are lord of all, you are king of kings;
you are mighty god;
lord of everything
you are emmanual, you’re the great I am.
you’re the prince of peace, who is the lamb.
you’re my saving grace.
you will reign forever, you are ancient of days
you are alpha, omega;
beginning and end.
you’re my saviour, messiah, redeemer and friend
and i will live my life for you.
It was a wednesday; this song was playing on my laptop. and i received the news; these two special individuals were there. i never thanked them, but thank god for them. thank god for the consolations. thank god for the comforts of just vaguely knowing about my messiah, my redeemer, my alpha and omega for whom to live for.
