You don't know me personally, you might have seen me, but I'm sure you haven't notice it. But I'm cool.

Anyways, about your "100 things about me(you)" just want to give a small piece of insight about the 100th thing about you. I've been there, really been there, just a thin piece of thread saved me, or that I just wasn't able to do it.

I was emotionally devastated coz the only girl I had (been waiting for her since I could remember) loved left me for someone. And she was my first ever gf. I was eighteen, and I always wanted to have a gf when I was younger but could able to find one. But when finally she came, it was the most happiest day in my life. So you can imagine how someone felt. When your waiting for someone like forever and when he/she finally arrived, and just after a few wonderful years she's gonna leave you for someone else. Yeah you know the cliche'.

But anyways at that time when I was about to do "it", you know what came to my mind at that moment? God's wrath. It was an overwhelming fear, that I felt right there and then. I really couldn't do 'it' despite all the aches I felt inside. I was trembling with fear, my knees was shaking. I was thinking if I'm gonna do it, GOD will definitely be mad at me and I might not go to heaven. And thanks be to GOD that HE didn't let me do it and now has led me to this church where we belong today. Thanks be to GOD for his mercy and grace.

Even now, when I think of it, I'm still thankful for HIM. and that that girl which I trully love back then is not even worthy, to throw away my life for her or even to anyone else at that matter.No one is truly worth it.

I hope you can learn from someone else life story. That if you don't want to taste the wrath of GOD don't think of even thinking about suicide. or even have any suicidal tendency. loath yourself for even thinking/feeling about such a despicable thing. In the end you are the one that's gonna lose. Bro Eli once said that you should be thankful that even if GOD didn't give you what you WANT, HE didn't give you what you DON'T want. So I pray, as a brother to a sister, that HE'll be with you always to guide and protect. Just be strong in faith. Be a 'Man' in faith.
