Happy birthday to me!

It was my birthday yesterday. I almost forgot it when I received a red packet and heard, "Happy Birthday" from my mother in the morning. But I was not suprised because there has been no family reunion since I was a kid. So I felt nothing when I thanked her. I still have not opened it till today. Even now, I'm not interested in how much there is in the red packet.

The word,"Birthday" began to disappear in my mind as I was doing the works in school. Perhaps I was workacholic. However, it came back in the evening. That's when I began to do the art for myself - my own present.


My own present! It's more than enough.

I did not intend to write the message on it after I completed it because I did not wish to let my classmates to know that it was my birthday. However, it slipped my mind when some went out for dinner and the rest were too obessed in their works. So I wrote it down. However, the ones who went out for dinner, returned with the packets of food. By then, I crossed my fingers, wishing that they would not read it. But I felt that they would find out sooner or later. So I left it open and worked on my homework. Of course, they had found out later and wished me happy birthday. I received the hug from my brother. Yes, these are more than enough for me. I want nothing but Lord Jesus Christ.

Today, I told myself that I had died and was born again to new life where I would grow my root in Christ. Yes, no more "Jin Cheng" within me because he had died.
