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...
ok... why did i decide to write the above in chinese? coz i guess my mother tongue is still mandarin, so when i think, they are in chinese, especially when they are my feelings... i still hv somemore to write though..haha..but a bit difficult to type in chinese coz my hanyu pinyin is not good.. i think i probably takes far lesser time writing them out myself than typing them out.. haha.. so, i will write something more next time in chinese... this time, about my dreams... coz in my msn i have been saying, “人因有梦想,才会伟大。你有梦想吗?我呢?我的梦想是什么?” for those not proficient in chinese ( and i guess u probably dun understd wat i was saying above for this entry, is ok..haha.. u can try translating it i guess :p).. ok.. i was saying, "Men will only became great when they have dreams. Do you have dreams? How about me? What is my dream?"
