Bible

I tried to get the right version of Bible for myself during the weekend. Tried to go to The Baptist Bookstore but the shop closed by the time I finished work on Friday.

On Sunday, tried to go to One-Stop, SALVATION bookstore and get one. I think my eye was blinded at the time I choose the Bible... I didn't see the one I choosen and paid was actually for the children, age 6-10, with pink color cover and a dragonfly. I was shy to get it return and change, so i kept it, though it was not cheap.

At night, I went to Borders and try to search for the Bible, cause I only want the NIV version, manage to find one, also with colorful cover, but this time is not for kids anymore, but the price is almost double, so expensive, but I bought it anyway.

I tried to read it, a few pages, on the New Testamen... about the history of Jesus..., will try to continue to read it tonight.

Before that, I wanted to share what a strange dream I had last night. I dream of my belated father. He passed away when I was 19 years old, that was like 14 years ago. I don't have much feeling about it since we were not living together since I was small, so I don't really love my father. Even towards his old age, when he had cancer and getting really weak, me and my mom, together with my sis, seldom go and visit him also. This is kinda sad actually, but this is a fact, because he didn't stay with us as a family, as a 2nd family of him, we don't really know how to love each other like a family.

The dream about last night, I don't know and don't understand why I got that dream, I was kinda close to my dad in the dream, he was getting really sick, he used to be a very strong and tall man, with dark skin. In the dream, I was able to carry him, as he was so weak, I need to carry him and let him lye down on the bed. I still can feel the closeness now, and I cried in my dream when I try to tell someone about the situation. I miss him, my dad, but I couldn't do anything now. He is no longer here....
