Kids the most innocent?

I'm back from kuching, and i have to say, it was an amazing journey. I've made new friends, experienced things i never dreamed and would never have done unless forced. Trekking up mount singai was an experience never to be forgotten. Going up was fine, even though it started to rain really heavily half way. Going down four days later was the scary part. Anyone who knows me knows that i've got this inate fear of heights, plus it was slippery and all. ANYWAY, i got down. The time up the mountain was therapeutic. Praying and all... The kampong stay was awesome. I mean, every one poured their whole hearts into the carolling in the nights, played musical chairs like it was the most amazing game on planet. How often do we take these things for granted? They started carolling from the 13th of December all the way to the 23rd of December, going to 2-3 houses each night so that all the houses would have been visited before Christmas. The spirit of including everyone and ensuring that no one was left out is something that greatly touched me. Everyone was very enthusiastic and gave their all during the carolling sessions- singing their hearts out, jumping about, and going around shaking everyone’s hands.
Everything was brought to a whole new dimension when children, teens and even adults started participating actively. Everyone poured their hearts and souls into simple games and made them seem so fun. Saying goodbye was an emotional scene and tears were shed. Friends were made, bonds were forged. I have learnt that the simplest lifestyle can bring so much happiness. It really doesn’t matter how much we own.

After sitting down for a couple of days, i was thinking back on the things that happened, the children i encountered. There were the nice ones who cuddled, hugged... but there were also those who were not as pleasant. No, i'm not referring to the perverted boy named johanas. (: There was this young girl who kept calling me a... a... never mind. it just wasn't pleasant. Anyway, children are the most innocent and i guess it was a pretty innocent gesture on her part. As in everything, when you think back, nothing is perfect, and there were things i thought good that i realised had a bad side, some things i thought bad that had a good side.

On the other hand, i've been smsing this 11 year old girl, lesleymaria on a almost daily basis. I do not dare to start smsing her first, but when i receive her smses in the evenings it really brightens up my day (: ah well. I didnt realise that tomorrow is Christmas eve :O wow wow wow.

The year is ending, many things have happened, are going to happen...
