Had a surprising conversation with my aunt today. This morning as I was walking out the door (and i was late, mind you...after oversleeping...again in 2 weeks, what is wrong with me?), she asked me what the core values of Christianity was. I was like, uhm..."I think: Know and love God with all your heart, soul & mind and love your neighbour as you love yourself. Those 2 sum up all the commandments in the Bible." And then, she said she felt like she was doing the 2nd one, but not the 1st one. And she explained how she was doing/not doing each. I just suggested to her to challenge herself more with the 1st one.

Then in the evening, over some really yummy blueberry yoghurt cake she had just baked (mann the whole place smelled so good), she showed me some print-outs of "Core Christian values", some quotes what ppl say "what the meaning of life is", some values from Taoism and Buddhism (Explanations) etc which she found online. And she told me for the past few days she felt like she had put her life on hold because she wanted to find a house to buy first. And that includes even material life on hold (eg buying furniture, going on holidays)...Life had been to her recently just: work, come home, eat, sleep, and the cycle repeats itself. It was Christmas and now it's August?!! Where has time gone?

And it's going to be September - as my workmate says :when the -ber months approach..time just FliES!

Anyway, it was interesting. Just casually mentioned if this was a mid-life crisis thing...quarter-life crisis..all the same thing. She laughed and said must be a 3/4 life crisis (and no, she is not that old but 3/4-life could mean 3/4 of one's life too, so she may be right).

My aunty wants to play badminton with me this Saturday - shld be nice =)
