I don't mind if you've got something nice to say about me
And I enjoy an accolade like the rest
You could take my picture and hang it in a gallery
Of all who's who and so-n-so's that used to be the best
At such'n'such ... it wouldn't matter much
I won't lie, it feels alright to see your name in lights
We all need an 'Atta boy' or 'Atta girl'
But in the end I'd like to hang my hat on more besides
The temporary trappings of this world
I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love? Did I point to You enough
To make a mark on things?
I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace who
blessed your name unapologetically
And leave that kind of legacy
I don't have to look too far or too long awhile
To make a lengthly list of all that I enjoy
It's an accumulating trinket and a treasure pile
Where moth and rust, thieves and such will soon enough destroy
Not well traveled, not well read, not well-to-do or well bred
Just want to hear instead, "Well Done" good and faithful one...
i had a blocked ear since last tue until the next tue. i was feeling a bit incongruent and even distracted whenever i tok or even sing. i got a bit upset when i cant hear the key of the songs im singing and even sometimes when ppl are toking. sighz... but i have no idea y i endure for a wk b4 i decide to go c a doc. mayb im thinking is juz a small matter and will most probably be back to normal within a day or 2. but yar.. it took more than that! and it actualli got me worried for a while. so i went to see doc on tue mrng.
the incident was ... haha.. quite funnie lei... my doc chked my ear coz she thot most prob is coz i have too much wax in my ear thats y the block. but after she looked, she said, "hm..ur ears are quite clean, shouldnt be the wax." then she proceeded to ask me if i went swimming, if i have sorethroat, block nose, etc. when i answered no to all her questions, she was a bit puzzled. she cldnt see wats wrong. ok, so she checked my throat and my nose and ha! she said my nose is actuali quite blocked! i was quite surprised when i heard that coz i definitely din realised i had a blocked nose. so, she asked, " u mean u din realise u have a blocked nose?"..haha.. blur me.. i din even actuali realise i've been having block nose! so she covered one side of my nose and asked me to breathe. 'can breathe?'.. i said yes. then she covered the other side. 'can breathe?'.. err.. this then i realise, yar i cant breathe v well, though i can breathe.. ahhaa... so, her diagnosis is - most prob coz of the bad blocked nose that coz my ear to be blocked coz they are linked. so she prescribed some cold medicine for my nose and a ear drop. hahaa.. i left the clinic in utter amazement at myself...haaa.. no wonder i hvnt been sleeping well! most prob coz of the stupid nose, the not enuf oxygen that cause my heart to beat so fast and put my body into discomfort! bleah~
p.s. my afterthought abt this incident as i think more abt it is regrading my spiritual state. im probably oblivious to the fact that im insensitive to my spiritual senses. blocked ears, blocked nose and din noe abt them until God has to resolve to knock me on my head..
Open the blind eyes, unlock the deaf ears Come to Your people as we draw near Hear us from heaven, touch our generation We are Your people, crying out in desperation...
