GOD'S LITTLE ANGELS
yeah. today was yet monday. but strangely i didn't suffer from monday blues.
went to work to settle some stuff..before heading down to meet three friends for lunchie or brunchie. we were sharing some opinion over the spiritual issues, community issues at our parish and our clashing views ha ha.
yeah, and i knew these bunch through some encounters at a retreat i went for a year ago.
and just now..i was chatting with one of them on certain personal issues and realised why we actually clicked!
I suppose my friend and i have the same issue, people commenting that we're spending too much time or being too close to the opposite sex.
Meaning to say.. i have way too many close guyfriends, or somehow guys just see me as some aunt agony or sister they wanna confide in for some strange reason.
in a way, i feel there's nothing wrong with a purely platonic friendship...and it's sad that most people don't know how to appreciate it.
but anywayz, i realised why i seem to develop this tendency.
I was closer to my dad than to my mum when i was younger....
so i had all those chats with my dad in the car...sharing and singing songs together....ya i have a wonderful dad :)
my late mum's wonderful too..but somehow she and i kind of clash and don't really understand each other, so i lack a consistent female role model, as my late grandmother died when i was just 9.
i suppose this world can be harsh when they view things from a fixed set of parameters.
which is why..god sometimes send us little angels called friends who make us feel more accepted and loved.
2005 and 2006 i got to know quite a lot of nice friends :)
yeah, even if the world has an issue of who you are..........we ought to strike a balance between becoming acceptable to others and retaining a crucial identity that is truly only ours.
