By Golly, you're 51?!?

So today marks the 51st Indepedence Day for M'sia. And what a long way we came from whence we first started.

Well, there are a lot of thoughts going around, oh did you know this year's theme is "Perpaduan Teras Kejayaan" which translate into: Unity is the core of success.

I like Kenny Sia's latest post here
It talks about the irony of people in M'sia, and it's funny and real at the same time, we contradict ourselves way too many times, and we complain so much but gets nothing done!

Did you know we are also in the CIA website? well, its a factbook hehehe, i digress.

I guess even as screwed up this country is, it is still a country i love and adore, and God placed me here for a reason. And for that i wanna live to my fullest potential to serve God in this place.

Yesterday i went for a rally for national day, and we sang the national anthem, these kids (unfortunately they are christians - when i say unfortunately, i mean they should have acted better) were talking on the phone, talking to each other while the song was being sung! i terasa and hushed them, i think no matter how you hate living in this place, please show some respect, after that they played with their cellphones for most part of the rally.

Are we slacking in the teaching of the Lord's word where we can take for granted, it is easier to just say things and not doing anything about it.

If you want this country changed, pray, pray with all you got, maybe if you stop complaining and actually look at the country for what it is, and what God is doing, maybe you will catch on God's fire and be part of His plan =)
