Tupawh a nun humhim duh apiangin a chan anga; tupawh keimah avangaa nun chan apiangin a humhim ang. Miin khawvel a pumin nei sela, a nun chan sisela, a tan engnge saw tang?”

For Those Who Are Having PHOBIA, TRYPOPHOBIA


I have a fear of small objects clubbed together. I think I came to know about this kind of fear when I had a bad dream when I was a kid about an insect which moved over my hand and my body. The area where it touched became covered with some kind of shield and clusters. From that onward, whenever I remembered that dream my body became uneasy and began to itch. However I don’t remember it all the time. But when I come across those small insects crawling all together (some people call them ‘Happy family’) I have a sudden irritation. In our campus those kind of insects come out once in a year. The more you try to avoid seeing them, the often you see them. Your eyes will see them even at a corner. I hate it every year when their season comes.

Recently, we discuss about ‘phobias’ and I told my friends about my story and that I don’t know the name given for that kind of phobia. After few days, one of my friends posted it on my Facebook wall the explanation given by a dictionary and the name given to it. I came to know that it resembles my phobia. It is called ‘trypophobia’. From that day, I Google it now and then to see how it is described and to get some suggestion for getting rid of it. However, the more I search, the more I see the pictures and the more I get irritated and get feared. It gets worse every time I see the pictures and see the name. It gets my whole body itchy and I hate it so very much. Most of the people who posted about their stories also seem to experience the same thing that the more they search, the more it gets worse.


I came to a conclusion that if you ever have some kind of fear or irritation or phobias, don’t GOOGLE it, and don’t search for an answer to get rid of it. If you do, you’ll end up like me, getting worse. So, if you don’t want to make it worse, just don’t Google the name anymore. In fact, if you happen to read this from Google there’s no doubt that you have already been Google-ing about trypophobia. I strongly suggest you not to search anything more about it. I just thought it can be the same case like other PHOBIAS too. So stop Google-ing about your phobias.


P.S. I don’t mean to offend the person who told me about the name of my phobia. In fact, I’m glad if this post could help other friends who are looking for some cure for the phobia.

Hello Again

Blog blog blog…this blog of mine…well, its been more than a year I even visited my blog. I completely lost track of writings and even bloggers. Tonight, or should I say this morning here I am landing from a search of clue for a sermon. Sermon, mmm.. well it sounds so BIG for me because it’s going to be my first ever delivery of any kind of sermon. I was so nervous and I initially refused to accept their request. Nonetheless I thought I cannot escape this kind of thing all the time and time will come when I have to stand in the podium, so I finally agreed to accept the request. I thought I still have sometimes to think of what to deliver. I thought to myself it has got to be ‘something’ since its going to be my first time and I cannot afford to forget this special event. So, I earnestly prayed that He’ll give me something. However, only three more days ahead and still left empty. On the top of that, there are lot of things going on around to steal my mind and body. I finally sat down to prepare at least something. I opened ‘Google’ web page hoping that it would give me some kind of clue for my preparation. I came across one blog which finally make me want to visit my long lost Blog. I doubted I even remember my I.D and password. Lucky, I tapped them correct in my first attempt. That’s how I am now.

I Have Decided by Aaron Pelsue

I was browsing the song and found this version by Aaron Pelsue. It was the first time I heard this version and like it so much. I love his voice too. However, when I tried to sing along, I got lost with the lyrics. I browse the lyric for this version. I could find none.  So, I decided to pen it down by my own with a careful listening. Here we go....


I have decided to follow Jesus × 3
No turning back × 2

Though none go with me, Still I will follow ×3
No turning back
There’s no turning back

Where You lead me, I will follow
Where You lead me, I will go
Where You lead me, I will follow
Jesus, take me
Down that road
Where You lead me, I will follow
Where You lead me, I will go
Where You lead me, I will follow
Anywhere Lord
I will go
Yes I will go

I have decided to follow Jesus ×3
No turning back × 2

The world behind me, The cross before me ×3
No turning back × 2

Where You lead me, I will follow
Where You lead me, I will go
Where You lead me, I will follow
Jesus, take me
Down that road
Where You lead me, I will follow
Where You lead me, I will go
Where You lead me, I will follow
Anywhere Lord
I will go
O I will go

Even if I walk alone
Lord, this I choose to do
I will not look back
I’ll follow no one else
But You
And even if I walk alone
Lord, this I choose to do
I will not look back
I’ll follow no one else
But You
Even if I walk alone
Lord, this I choose to do
And I will not look back
I’ll follow no one else
But You
I’ll follow You Lord ×3
Anywhere
Anywhere
I will follow You Lord

Where You lead me, I will follow
Where You lead me, I will go
Where You lead me, I will follow
Jesus, take me
Down that road
Where You lead me, I will follow
Where You lead me, I will go
Where You lead me, I will follow
Anywhere Lord
I will go
Where You lead me, I will follow
Where You lead me, I will go
Where You lead me, I will follow
Jesus, take me
Down that road
Where You lead me, I will follow
Where You lead me
I will go
Where You lead me, I will follow
Anywhere Lord I will go
Yes I will go
Lord I will go
Singing I will go

I have decided to follow You Lord ×3
No turning back ×2
There’s no turning back
No turning back ×3

On Top of The World


I really like this song, can't get enough of listening to it.
The song is meaningful to those who like it, like me. It is simple and I guess I don't need to explain it, (if i try to explain I may go out of line, so better not to...)

Here it goes...


On Top of The World

by BOys like Girls (song writer : Martin Johnson)


Look up, the stars are fading
And I am still here waiting
To see you again

Be with you my friend

When the moon is gone forever
I hope you're up there somewhere
I'll see you again
Be with you my friend

'Cause all the roads they lead to where you are
And all the streetlights shine like they were stars
That's where you are

Let's spend tonight on top of the world
And we can do anything,
We can be anything
I'll meet you tonight on top of the world
As real as it seems,
You're only in my dreams

Look out across the water
Faces of lonely daughters and mothers who care
But just can't be there
Swear that I will see you someday
I have to find a way
To show you I care
Even if you're not there

So I'm following the road to where you are
(Meet you tonight on top of)
The streetlights they will guide me to the stars
That's where you are

Let's spend tonight on top of the world
And we can do anything,
We can be anything
I'll meet you tonight on top of the world
As real as it seems,
You're only in my dreams

My heart is empty without you
Sometimes I don't know what to do
And I need you tonight
I'll fall asleep and it's alright
Close my eyes and I'll be by your side

Let's spend tonight on top of the world
And we can do anything,
We can be anything
I'll meet you tonight on top of the world
As real as it seems,
You're only in my dreams

Let's spend tonight on top of the world
(On top of the world)
As real as it seems,
Your only in my dreams
