Thank You for Caring

I have always lived my life the right way. I woke up, had my meals, went out a little bit. Sometimes I would find myself to be such a normal person, almost forgettable. I wondered sometimes, if anyone was thinking of me, talking about me, praying for me.

Yesterday, I was having dinner with someone. We were talking and suddenly, the topic became about fasting, since the fasting month is nearing. We were talking about what fasts we will be doing, who we will pray for; etcetera. She told me she had been praying for me, and not only her, but also her whole cell group and my other colleagues. I was surprised. I didn't tell them I had issues. And to include the whole cell group who at the time, hadn't even met me, was mindblowing!

I realise that the changes and improvements over the last couple of months was not only by the power of my own prayer, it was the power of all the people that I didn't know, together with me. Most importantly, it proves that my life now is no fluke.

Praying for someone you don't know is an amazing thing. It takes so much love to even bother to care about someone. We always abide by a "don't be kaypoh and keep to yourself" rule. It cannot be more ironic the things we are doing now for others who sometimes, don't even realise it. Yesterday I realised I received. Yesterday I realised how many people made an effort to care. Today! I want to love the people I love, the people I don't like, and the people I don't know. No one has to know I'm praying for them, they just have to know they are loved and maybe, they'll feel as aweome as I feel right now!

Cya!
