i'm glad my blog is 99.9% positive. and that i have 99.9% positive outlook towards my life.
there's this short 'film' (if it qualifies) about youth issues on channel u, 青春部落格 the episode that i'm watching now is regarding this teenage girl who is facing problems in school, family, friends and ralationship. she was sad and EMO. and her so called solution to remove all the hurts was to hurt herself more by slashing her wrist.
i recalled being on bus112 one day after music practise and there were 2 girls sitting in front of me. they were comparing their scarred wrist. part of their convo was (yes, i eavesdropped) showing off what each did to their wrist. like 'i used rusty blade leh.you leh?', ' see the blood come out, so cute!' seriously, i dont see anything cute about it. then again, i think the last thing they want others to do is to tell them how stupid they are to inflict pain on themselves. to them, it's bravery, it's courage, it's peer influence.
i feel that if they want physical pain to cover their emotional pain, they should just channel their energy somewhere else like running marathons or something.
why slash? why hurt? there are probably 1001 problems and reasons but if you're looking for a solution, GOD is the solution. god paid it all for you. Jesus had his hands nailed to the cross. Go to him for courage, Go to him for love, Go to him for attention, Go to him for everything you lack.
Deuteronomy 2:7 The LORD your God has blessed you in all the work of your hands. He has watched over your journey through this vast desert. These forty years the LORD your God has been with you, and you have not lacked anything.
