it's been like.. 2.5 weeks.. but it seems like eons ago..
still at the honeymoon stage.. spending lots of time with one another when possible..
it's been tough esp. where work is concern.. trying to juggle both.. leaving not much for my own space..
not that i am complaining.. but i guess my bro has been feeling rather left out.. hence this week.. i have been spending more time back home..
sighz.. never knew he appreciate my presence so much .. lolz..
anyway.. i guess it's only right to be spending some time at home lar..
otherwise, parents will start making noise as well..
so the eagerly anticipated question.. is she the One? don't know..
Are things working out?? Well.. we are hitting it off rather nicely.. but it's only 2.5 weeks.. so there is a lot more to learn about each other.. really takes a lifetime.. have been getting on each other's nerves.. which is a good sign i guess.. getting familiar with each other.. and just letting ourselves "irritate" one another.. =)
Have you met the family yet? Sort of.. met her sisters who are living with her.. parent's are not here in Perth.. but coming for a visit soon.. so might meet them soon enuff.. not that I'm excited about it..
Why not?? coz.. for obvious reasons.. the very fact that there is this age gap.. will cause a lot of talk.. and i don't give much thoughts about it myself.. but ppl talk abt it and i can't help but feel helpless.. there isn't anything I can do .. to be older/change my age.. and it's not like i'm immature or something.. or that she's really old and ancient.. i think we complement each other nicely..
but i am readying myself to kena frm all sides.. i will just be myself and let my actions talk.. =)
So what's the plan, going forward..??
Well.. there has been 2 issues that plagues us.. age and faith..
Age is rather trivial when compared to faith..
My stand is that I cannot be married to a non-Christian.. that is an absolute..
And she doesn't see a point to be associated with any religion atm..
Firstly, she has no inkling what Christianity is all about..
Second, she has no need for religion and does not see any benefits of being a Christian..
I have been rather dimwitted at the moment.. haven't really thought about telling her what Christianity is all about..
I hope I will be able to do that soon.. real soon.. it will be challenging.. and I hope that you guys can support me by remembering us in ur prayers.. pray that she will open up to God.. allowing Him to reveal Himself to her.. I believe that He touching her life would make a more greater impact.. than me convincing her about Christianity..
No doubts, she needs to know what it is all about.. but the turning point would be her experiencing first hand, God's love and touch..
I really want this to last and.. I know a lot of ppl will ask..
If God wants the best for me.. why would He give me someone who is a non-Christian?? Why all the hassle??
I have no answer for that.. but all I can say is that I'm ready to commit my time and strength to make this relationship work out.. Of course, there is a high risk of it not going the way I would like it..
But she's worth the while..
We are happily in love with one another.. and by solving these issues.. will only make us grow stronger in the relationship..
It could have a good ending.. =)
