plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper
you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a
future."

=S tomorrow is the day guitar exco potentials make their speech.
just a random thought.
it takes around 40hours for a scalded tongue to be completely healed without any medical attention.
another random thought.
Humility is a virtue. i have great respect for humble people; i am humbled by humble people. i admire them for willingly putting aside any airs of superiority, to help those weaker than them and to do so without "the help-ed" feeling belittled. i'm thankful for such people in my life =)
Pride is not. i believe that for one to improve, pride must must be removed. for example, i had to remove pride, to not be afraid of making a fool of myself; to converse in mandarin in preparation for H1 Chinese Oral on Friday. HAHA. Previously, no one would be able to hear me speaking in mandarin unless i absolutely had to. eg. when reading aloud in chinese classes.
Excessive pride (i.e. arrogance) often causes great displeasure to others, especially when it seeks to elevate oneself by putting others down.
i am thankful for some of these unpleasant encounters (fortunately, very few so far) because from them, i learn.
"Let him who boasts boast in the Lord." -- 2 Cor 10:17
"What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?" Mark 8:36
i shall boast in the LORD.
