Futsal Week

post #280

This week had been truly a futsal week. After a match on Wednesday (which our division lost), I played futsal again on Friday, as part of training session. Couldn't remember how many goals I scored, but the feeling was great, just like I wrote in my previous entry. One thing I remembered though, I scored a goal while Peterpan's Menghapus Jejakmu was being played. When I heard that song was played....I targeted to score a goal while it's being played. It meant I only had about three minutes to achieve it. It took two minutes something to do it. *Phewwww....

To wrap things up, yesterday I played futsal again. To my surprise, there were only twelve of us who came, so we had to play full for two hours. We only took a short break for about five minutes to drink. It's sooooooooo exhausting (not to mention I just played futsal on Friday). Though it's tiresome, it felt very good. I ignored the weariness I felt especially on my thighs, I just kept on running...running...and scoring goals (managed to score eleven goals and four assists). I found futsal (or sport in general) as a great way to channel all the negative emotions that might been bothering. Just like singing, it helped to keep my mind away from all of those emotions, better, it transformed them into this energy that kept me going on and on and on and on. *I'd been trying to get this song, heard it many times when I was playing futsal, but never knew the singer nor the title. Just like Kenny G's song that I had heard earlier in the morning.....That soothing song while watching the starts.

We had so much laugh yesterday (just like we always did). The girls were coming also and they were busy talking and doing some stuff with the laptop the brought. I looked at them a bit wistfully. *sigh... it'd be nice to have someone to spend some time like that, just to know that she's there....But I couldn't always get what I what. I had to adjust. My mind wandered a bit, leapt into the future and imagined the girls becoming my friend's wives and probably children would also come into the picture. That'd be nice. Life didn't have to be rich in financial terms. Simple life, rich of love, of happiness (yes of course we still need money to be happy)......that would be just perfect....

After that we went to get some late dinner. Then we went back home....That wrapped a week full of futsal. I was reminded of a SMS my friend had sent few days earlier. It said something like this:
"..Sometimes God only let us see the desert, but actually there's a river prepared for us (I think it implied that the river was behind the desert)...So keep trust HIM...Good Night...JC Luv U..."

I was quite surprised to read it. Never received such sms, esp from that person. Coincidence? Ermm....dunno. But probably that's how God worked. Through series of chain reactions we might never understand or see the connection. He said that the reason he had sent the SMS was he got it from a friend and wanted to spread/share the blessing, give some moral support for those in need. Yeah, someone might need some words of support like those and when these words came to their cellphones from other people, they might be strengthen a bit.

Again talking about timing....It's funny and quite surprising how things could change, turn upside down in a matter of weeks, days, or even hours. These transitions were such in quick pace sometimes they left me out of breath trying to adjust, to digest what'd been happening.
I sure could use some wisdom to cope with them all.
Like The Moffatt's song...

Isn't funny how times seem to slip away so fast
One minute you're happy, the other you're sad....

Speaking of The Moffatts, where were they now? They're quite popular here back then. Then I lost news bout them. Last time I heard was that one of the triplets came out from the closet and admitted that he was a gay. That what made The Moffatts disbanded.

Well...nevermind about The Moffatts....life is short enough, better live it, cherish it every passing second the best I can....


The Moffatts - If Life Is So Short

Isn't it funny
How times seems to slip away
So fast
One minute you're happy
The other you're sad
But if you give me one more chance
To show my love for you is true
I'll stand by your side
Your whole life trough

chorus:
If life is short
Why won't you let me love you
Before we run out of time
If love is so strong
Why won't you take the chance
Before our time has come
If life is so short
If life is so short

Love is a word that explains
How I feel for you
And when you're in my arms
All my dreams come true
And when you're not around
You can't hardly see
These tears that I'm crying
Now are for you to be with me

chorus
