The Day I became 2 Decades Old
Monday, February 13, 2012

I turn 20 today. Yes, that's 2 decades old. Doing a bit of reflection, the past 2 decades has indeed been (by human standards) quite eventful. The sense of self-awareness, of knowing who you are, what you want to do in the future, what you like just becomes more defined each year. I guess maturity comes with a greater sense of responsibility, that your future is to a certain extent (of course God is in control of everything) yours to shape. I especially like the times when I get this idea that the future IS exciting and not all gloomy. There are so many new options to explore, new things to do. I guess the only good thing about growing up is the freedom to explore, to learn and to understand. But I'll always remain the little kid inside. I'll never stop laughing. I guess the numerical increase in age is but a number. The person we are does not change from one year to the next. I'm the same guy I was yesterday, though being one year older now (oh no). It's scary but it's also reassuring. Stay true to yourself, it's your identity :)

Well God has been good for the past 2 decades. I'm sure He will be for the many more to come :)
