~ Randomly...

I ticked "Financial freedom".

The question was something like, "Which of the following do you need blessing for?" The options were plenty. Health, family harmony, inner peace, friendships and relationships, career, direction for the future... and of course, financial freedom.

I thought through every option carefully while some other proceeding of the service was taking place without my involvement. I had wanted to tick "direction for the future". Then, I thought it was not like I didn't have any at all. I have agenda on my plate. And frankly, I don't give much faith to the future anyway. It's not like I really care to know the future. I had wanted to tick "inner peace". Then, I thought, something like that could be achieved with the help of medication. Some tranquilizer or antiD or just cough syrup. After all, this inner peace thing is more a choice, a pursuit, rather than something you can ask blessing for. I had wanted to tick "friendships and relationships". Then, I thought what the heck! If I'm going to be a real friend to anyone, then I will be a real friend. Why would I need blessing for that? And admittedly, I have already been blessed by many and many good friends. As for relationship, simply 'N.A'.

In the end, I looked through my options very carefully again and decided to be blessed in financial freedom. That's something that can, in turn, help in the achieving of things like family harmony, health, friendships (pay rental for books on loan from friend/therapist), career (imagine "I resign. Because I don't need the money anymore. nananibooboo!")... and so on and so on... Most importantly, that will require a bit of a miracle (like striking the Toto when I only spent one conservative dollar on 2 sets of quick-picks). And miracles are things that God is expected to be capable of manufacturing.

I think it's an extremely thoughtful decision. So proud of it! Now, I'm just waiting for that miracle...

"I love you. And there's nothing you can do about it."

That's a bit like "I still love you. So, what can you do to me?"

Sunday nights are usually spent thinking "I should have slept more this weekend. Why the hell didn't I?"
