The sun before the Noon...

Recollecting this past week.
Thinking of what i've learnt, said and seen.

Of stories and games. Seems so reverting, those fantasy
games. With their complex story lines... always somehow,
having something to do with time, 'creation' and religion.

Yet almost always.. they fall back onto Christian texts.
Then remodelling it and combining them with myth and science.
To create a link, seemingly seemless. And I just find myself caught
up in the story sometimes. Don't know about the rest, but i think
most gamers do and that's why the final fantasy series is so popular.
Even The Matrix. Though trying to deal with philosophy, has so much
Christian ideas in it.

Does this say something about us humans... even though we may have
differing views. We are all dying to know some truth? All so hooked on
knowning that there's something beyond. Maybe we're created this way,
to want to seek out a God? Which in the Bible is true.

Anyway, that aside... it's also a sad week. Not for me but a friend.
For his sudden departure of his Dad.
It happened so sudden in a way and I don't know how he's taking it now.
Don't know if he's going to be asking why.... or blaming anyone or anything
inside him. But i guess he's matured enough, and being the first child,
he's got to settle lots of things. I feel for him. His burden and all.
Guess he's got lots of paper work to settle and then his job to keep him
occupied. But don't know if he's alright inside. Don't know how to help him,
but i guess i'll just pray... hope his faith will be strong.

Guess it just reinforces the fact that life's just so fragile.
Gotta treasure what we have. Who we know. Those we care for.
But guess what, it ain't that easy. For we're all too caught up
in our own lives...

Feeling drained, tired.
Needing a break.
Gonna have it in 4 hrs time.

Gonna leave.
Gonna say good bye.
For three days.

Off to Tioman,
To where the beach is white
And the water blue.

I hope. :)
