You Know What???
And it's become the question of my life. I can walk into a conversation now, and when I open my mouth, they ask along with me. You know what?
You know what? No, I do not. I do not know what. Therefore, obviously, I'm counting on you, Matthew Yee, to tell me.
It's interesting, really. I have only just realized exactly how I would not have 93% of my conversations if I never had a story to share everytime I saw somebody.
It's also very interesting that my life is so interesting. It's taken a long long long long loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong time, but with the aid of friends, I have come to the realisation that my life is a wonderful life. A lot of things happen around me. Or I find everything around me interesting. However it is, there's always some story to tell. And eventually, I would be really happy and touched if I ever found out at the end of it all that someone out there has managed to see life in a better light after I came into their story.
I thank God, really. My God who always takes me out of depression because He is my Joy. My God who removes my stress because He is my Peace. My God who always takes me out of loneliness because He is my Best Friend. My God who tells me what to do because He is my Heavenly Father. My God who enables me to see everything as interesting because He is the imaginative Creator. My God who inspires me to love people because He loved me so much He took the penalty for my wrongs and died in my place.
You know what? When you just want to sit down and cry, God wipes your tears and makes you laugh. When you can only do 10 things and have to do 50, God helps you do 51. When it seems like you have no friends, God invites you to the movies. When you make a mistake, God says "How fascinating!" and teaches you the correct way. When life seems drab and monochromatic, God drops a heavenly paint bucket on it. When everyone is just so easy to hate, God reminds you that He loved you, He loves you, and shows you how to love everyone.
And you know what? God touches, helps and loves, so we ourselves can touch, help and love. I may not be God, or even come close at all in my wildest dreams, but I surely can show someone how wonderful life can be. And that's what I hope to do, by asking everytime I meet someone:
"You know what?"
