Can I Stay Here Forever With You?

“Through forgotten convictions
Misplaced affections
I’m losing the sound of Your voice
I’ve been chasing after emptiness
Trying to tidy up this mess
I swear I’ve been down this road before
I want to get back to where it all began
When I would long for only You”

I don’t know how I managed to lose my way when I started out so strong this year. My only consolation for this is that there are bigger obstacles and newer challenges because I am leveling up. But it doesn’t negate the fact that I have been distracted and things have become superficial and ultimately routine. So many instances have I been patching it all up with futile efforts and seemingly helpful self-encouragement, but all of these things did not provide a lasting relief. I know and acknowledge the situation I have been in, and all I desire is to go back to Your heart.

City Lights, Rooftops, and Life

Now I sort of understand why K-drama characters love rooftops.

Very conducive for clearing your head, and the vast landscape is more than breathtaking to visually swallow in one sitting. You’ll always be able to see activity, simultaneous and bustling.

My rooftop experience tonight was note-worthy.
The dancing lights under a dusk canopy plays calmly with your eyes, and you never know where to focus your attention on: will it be the blinking stars, or the steady tower lights – red and glaring, or even the intensified cluster of city lights that provoke the darkness with its radiance. 

Also, lightning was a fine touch to the monotonous gradient of darkness tonight. 

Everything was capped off with such refreshing wisps (blasts, actually, but they were gentle enough to suit the mood) of wind. 

A+ evening, thank You Lord. I do believe I’m ready for a new season.
