human sacrifice 10:36 AM

Let me tell you a story or two about sacrifice.

WHEN FRIENDS SACRIFICE

Had a recent phone conversation with my darling Safrina, and she and i reminisced about a time when i sacrificed my time for her.

Funny, it was one of the usual things we did ; talk on the phone for hours on end. Apparently, we talked on an evening i was supposed to work. I supposedly started at 6 pm that day, but i didn't turn up for work cos i enjoyed her company on the phone so much, i was willing to sacrifice $30 of my pay for her.

Yeah, the things we crazy beings do.

Then there are times when we have our late night philosophical (oh me and Saf can get super philosophical. We could probably win Emmys ) phone conversations and ended up talking till about 3 am or so.

Safrina turned up for work the next day, dead beat sleepy due to lack of sleep.

Aaaah... the wonders of sacrifice.


WHEN FAMILY SACRIFICE

I walked into my sisters' room just about ten minutes ago, and saw PQ, my youngest sister, sleeping on the floor.

See, my house is under renovation for the next 2 weeks or so and my room is vacant cos it's a makeshift store room to store in all the furniture for now. So i have to bunk in with the sisters on their two adjoined single beds for the next 13 nights.

Seeing my sister on the floor, i woke her up and questioned her being on the floor. The answer i received from a half-sleeping PQ made my heart fuzzy.

"So that you'll have more space on the bed."

She willingly gave up her comfy side of the bed so that i'd have more space to sleep.

How sweet could a sister be?


So now you see...when the ones you love sacrifice for you, it makes you think that anything in the world for them isn't impossible.

You'd do anything just to see that smile on their face.

And this episode, my lovelies, have given me another reason to hold my head up high in tough times.
Another reason to live, another reason to believe.


Alright, i'm sleepy now. There's nothing much to say apart from the usual dull-sunday activity i indulge myself in. You wouldn't wanna know now do you? i mean seriously.

Oh but wait! I did something fantastic today. I actually ironed two-thirds of the overdue laundry today. I ironed clothes! A good pat on the back for myself, cos i swear i never thought ironing would be so much fun, especially after seeing the empty laundry baskets you've worked hard on.

Come tmr, is a brand new week, a brand new day.

Life live to the fullest k! Enjoy your mondays!
