Change

I got tattoos the other day
- My eyeliners and my eyebrows
I don't know why
But I just know God wanted me to do it
It's done and now I am waiting to see the results
As I believe it is going to peel, healed
Then the final result will appear
That is what He is going to do with you
He will prick you
Make you feel pain
But not too much that you can't handle it
Did I tell you he numbs you
before He does it?
So did my tattoo artist
Did I say you will be in pain?
I was
But after that it will peel
As He will peel you - layers by layers
And you will heal
And after that - a new you
- for the moment
You are going to change and keep changing
And God is gonna do what He is going to do
So don't think you will be the same forever
I am not
But always for the better
As we will not go backward
2 Corinthians 3:18 says 
We go from "glory to glory"
So you see
Don't be afraid of change 
Change is good!
Got to tell you a story
When I was in college and lived in the dorm
I was kicked out from the quiet dorm
And put in another dorm
Because I was too loud
I was sad even cried
Thinking it was the end of the world
I didn't want to move
I was so scared 
- moving to a new place and everything
But you know - once I moved to the new place
Looking back, I wondered why I had stayed there in all that time
Ever since that day I embrace change
Because haha change is good
Don't tell anyone that story lol
