Bleary-eyed, much confused, the boy awakes, and the routine renews:

Emo Boy caught a Spidey 3 with my family and me recently. Was nice to me, loved the last drama part. HOWEVER, for Emo Boy, who is never ever silent : "You know what defines a good movie? Its one which detaches you from reality. As if you are in a movie itself. You wouldnt like walk out and think, yeah, nice movie. You walk out and feel emotionally charged. blah blah..." Uh-huh. So yeah, Emo Boy went home immediately and emoed in front of the computer. Whatever.

From Emo Boy:

Just received news about the death of a friend's aunty baby. Died as she was way premature. Just thinking, if i was a parent, would i dare to face all these? Yeah, its from God and He willed that your family handle all these situations but i never, ever dare to try and think about having a child who is "unwhole". Love comes easy, after all, she or he is your flesh and blood, but how can i support her/him so that she/he will live a comfortable life? My wife and i would have to struggle, no doubt, but what worries me more is how can i give them a sheltered life where they wouldnt have to struggle along, where they can just receive the complete love from us, a love society would not give? What if my children dies prematurely? They cant enjoy what life, what God has to offer and show. These responsibilities make me question myself on marriage. Even "normal" children. How am i to make sure they grow up right? Cant be too restrictive or to relaxed. Parenting is not easy. Its a hurdle many couples rather not face. But marriage to me, is a will from God that He wants us, given the chance for us to manage the growth of another disciple, to make sure she/he grows up according to how God desired. Thats the responsibility He had given to us the day we exchanged vows. Even if we could not have one of our own, the church, society has so much young lives waiting for someone to take up the responsibility and care for them. Its not easy being a parent. Then again, who said parenting was simple?

So ends yet another day and the boy still waits, for the other piece of his puzzle, to allow the final transition.
