Nevertheless.

Uncle Patrick asks mum,
''Hey, are you free?....
Can you get the cockroach?''

(SNIGGER)

Today,
I spent a fruitful afternoon with Carol
Over a predictable lunch at SoupSpoon.

I'd like to share a few quotes from our conversation

''Life without weaknesses is not beautiful anymore.''

''If your biography is all about how perfect you are,
it'd be, 'Boring....! Give me the next book.''

I have learnt that
We are not Strong
Because we have a flawless life
We have few problems

I have learnt that
We are not Strong
Because we do not allow ourselves to
Fail and make mistakes

I have learnt that
We are Strong
When every time we fall
We stand back up
And say
''Nevertheless...I will go on''

When the currents intensify
The waves rush in
I must push through
Not back away and quiver
I must swim over
And trust
He'll never let me drown

By faith
They passed through the Red Sea
As by dry land,
Whereas the Egyptians,
Attempting to do so,
Were drowned.

By faith he forsook Egypt,
Not fearing the wrath of the king;
For he Endured
As seeing Him who is invisible.

Faith and Persistency
The spine of every strong man and woman
