Who will be saved? The Catholic/Christian who was baptised at birth when he couldn't even talk and lived his life without going to church and consciously did things which he knew were sinful, or the believer who gradually learnt about the faith, went to church and tried his very best to live his life by God's word but somehow didn't get baptised?
Assuming you have two kids, A and B, who plotted to steal your money. A cried after, said sorry and vowed never ever to do it again. B never cried, never said sorry, and never promised you anything. You would still be very angry with B because you don't feel his remorse, but you will forgive A, because he apologised and gave you his word so you will try to trust A again. However, B never ever did anything bad from then on, while A stole your money again. Who will you forgive at the end of the day? Was B wrong because he never expressed his remorse? Or will you never forgive A because he betrayed your trust?
If you forgave B in the end, shouldn't that mean the person who never promised you anything yet tried his best to live as a good person should be saved, instead of the person who promised to live his life as a good person but broke his promise?
Does God only save those who get baptised? And should people who are not baptised be judged and pitied because they will not be saved?
I don't know the answer.

dvf
is Diane von Furstenberg, (born Diane Simone Michelle Halfin on December 31, 1945 in Brussels, Belgium). DVF is an American fashion designer best known for her WRAP DRESSES. At 18, she married Egon Prinz von und zu Fürstenberg, the elder son of a German prince and his wife, an heiress to the Fiat automotive fortune. She divorced him in 1972 and remarried an American media mogul, Barry Diller, in 2001.
That's all I care about her life. The important thing is that she makes the most beautiful wrap dresses.
Her Fall 2007 collection is out, and I love these in particular:
As you can see, the in colours for Fall 2007 is black and deep red. Perhaps I like them because black and dark red are my favourite Fall colours so I may be bias. Still, stock up on them! :)
Check out her website and her Fall 2007 collection
If you are interested and have money to spare this GSS, you can have a DVF wrap dress of your own! DVF has a small boutique in Takashimaya departmental store, the women's clothes department. Prices start from $400 to the thousands. Enjoy! :)

when you are bored
waiting for law firms to call you up during pupillage application day, you have to entertain yourself, by playing GRABBLE!!! Grabble is a game where you divide closed Scrabble tiles, open them one by one and form words out of the open tiles. The person with the most number of words win! Thanks to ZY for teaching us the game.
I won my boyfriend! :)
And I win again because...
:) I love you too! Thank you for spending the whole day with me. Don't say you didn't do much. You being there for me, during my best and worst times, was the most wonderful thing that could ever happen to me. I love you.

choices
I wanted you so much. But you looked so disinterested that it pissed me off when we talked. You took so long to decide if you wanted me.
I didn't want him that much, but he wanted me so much more. And then he asked, as if I was the One he wanted.
I called you. I needed to know if you wanted me. I gave you a deadline, but you didn't reply. So I chose to be with him instead. He wasn't the best or the one I desired most, but at least I knew there would be someone out there who wanted me for who I was.
I accepted him. You called soon after, saying that you wanted me. Your voice was so sincere, I cried. My heart ached because I wished so hard, all day and all night for a year for you to be mine, but once you decided that you wanted me, it was too late.
It was partly my fault. I was too impatient. I didn't have faith in you and I was not confident of myself to know that I was the one you wanted. Maybe that's why. I didn't believe in you.
I made my choice and I will stick by it. Because God has His plans for me and I know that He will always be watching over me.
But it still aches... so so much...

sacrifice
Sacrifice: the surrender or destruction of something prized or desirable for the sake of something considered as having a higher or more pressing claim.
A sacrifice is made only for someone you love or feel is worthy. However, is a 'sacrifice' paradoxical? If you so love the person, doing something you wouldn't normally do for yourself or someone else wouldn't seem like a sacrifice because it just comes so naturally to you.
To me, when I do something for the person I love, it is no sacrifice to me because I know the person is happy to know how much I love him.
And who could ever forget the greatest sacrifice of all?
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16
May you find the one whom you are ever so willing to sacrifice your desires for.
