happiness in defeat
hi guys! i am so awfully sorry that i havent updated for the past few days... i guess i was lazy. haha. i know i am a little slow but i have never realised that my blog posts have no titles... HAHA. so the one in bold at the top is my title!!! ok??? haha. yes. i wanna talk about happiness today! haha ALOT of things have been happening to me over the past few weeks- good and bad. i realised that what the most important thing is to be happy. life is too short for moaning, groaning and complaining. its true... why make life so difficult and sad just over a few mishaps or arguments??? i THANK God for putting all these difficulties, problems and trials in my life. Cause i have learnt that WITH GOD, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. so... why be so sad and stressed when you can just be HAPPY and THANKFUL?? you know... scientists have proven that it takes MUCH MORE energy to frown than SMILE:D.
HAHA see... EVEN THAT PIG can smile... why cant you??? today i had my competition with an Singapore Badminton Association player and she was.... GOOD. very GOOD. well, she had her flaws and i had mine. I realise today how everything ... well ALMOST EVERYTHING, had to do with the MIND. when i saw her name xxx on the draw... i did not know that she was a SBA player, in fact i thought she wasnt a threat at all. However, when i told my friends, their IMMEADIATE response was, "OH..." literally. well, once that got into my mind, i instantly was like SHIT. SHIT. oh well. then it came to the game, i was VERY nervous. guess what the score for the 1st set was : 5-21. YES. 5!!!!! like WHAT????!!!! right? well. then 2nd set: 21-18. I WON!!!!! see the diff. this is what helped me win:
my captain, Siewyun, said, "FORGET about that 'SINGAPORE' mark on her shirt. i can also place one for you on your shirt." haha yes, it might seem funny but trust me. it helped. just OH SO MUCH. i guess what i realised was that SO WHAT if she was a Singapore player? SO WHAT?! what does it matter? like i said... ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH GOD. as long as i believed in myself and forgot about the fact that she was a Singapore player, i did it. i won her. i did. haha. so then there was the rubber, or third set. i lost. but ITS OK. I AM STILL AS HAPPY AS EVER. cause i know that i did my best and i learnt a lesson, a very important one. it is VERY important to believe in yourself, to believe in God.
