Sowing Seeds or being Mr Nice Guy?

Met up with my Sec Sch buddy.

It's funny, how little we remember about our past and our various conversations, experiences, and funny incidents.

Sure we remember the extremely lame ones, or the really jia lat moments. But ask me if I remember any of our conversations or anybody that really left an impact on my life, there would be none of my class friends, except this buddy of mine.

The point is this : We can all be nice friends, with funny lines interjected in conversations, and be people who are nice, polite and just plain good friends. "Don't shake the boat with your spirituality" , maintaining your status quo. Talking only about stuff they are comfortable with...

But, you know what, not many would remember much of what you said or do.

The only thing they recall of you is ,"Oh, he was a nice guy."

Most of the time you lose contact and you move on with new friends in new places.

And congratulations. You've lost a chance to impact a friend eternally.

Some times, being Mr. Nice Guy isn't really the best. If you don't sow the seed, it would last eternity. Only God and His word are eternal.

Argh. If I had the chance to turn back time, I'd definitely have shared with my Secondary School Class mates. All they remember of me probably, is that I slept in class most of the time.

Hmm, no time to lose. Must seize my chances.
