friends and family

the last couple of days with good friends has been awesome. my family and these friends are my core support group and it is more honour and privilege to be part for this circle.. to defend, to protect, to uphold, to cherish and to enjoy each relationship that God has given me.

I do not know how to describe my feelings and thoughts anymore than just to log off and spend actual minutes with them rather than the computer!

Borrowed time

Almost the end of the year and the last time I blogged was Valentine's Day and I don't remember what did i do then.

finally read the book Tuesdays with Morrie last night and went to bed with puffy eyes at 3am. He was operating on borrowed time from God but he made sure that everyone enjoyed and relished LIFE as much as they can before they succumb to DEATHHHHHHH. So.. today, i'm working on borrowed time from God to enjoy the friendships, relationships and pure beauty that is Earth before I go to bed..

Next book - Pilgrim's Progress if I can remember where I left the new book i bought.

Facebook - i don't like it intruding into my life and needing to check for updates etc. But at least I found out that Claire was eliminated from MasterChef from Deano's post on FB. Imagine getting updated news from college principal regarding a cookshow program on FB.

Witches - The Koo Kids assured me that there was a real movie made based on Roald Dahl's book witches , i scorned at their childlishness, then Go channel is showing Witches this Saturday at 730pm.. Point taken. Children are smarter than Hsien. Not only they are getting taller than Hsien-ny-poo, they are moving beyond me in terms of IQ stages. If only they can challenge me at Bible quizzes, then I will willingly resign and thank God for their knowledge.

Mummy came back from Japan with pressies. She got Pam, my scary sister and CANON high tech looking camera. I'm impressed that Mum found the right sort of camera for her. I wonder I will get .. hehehehehehe

Ok.. dont' wanna waste my borrowed time on more computers, going to try and annoy Tammy..

need a break.. already

feeling dry and complacent this week. My hope of getting away for a couple of days to somewhere and read, relax and be there eludes me. Probably will do so tomorrow if i can book a place asap. Family can find me if my dear BlackBerry phone comes back from the doctor but I don't think people work that efficiently here. Maybe its time to go home to KL .. where things are worse but at least you expected it to be

fully grown man!

one those days where mundane things of doing the banking, finishing the bulletin, fixing up the flowers makes me reflect on whether i'm doing the right thing for my life.. God sends snippets of joy into my day to remind.. its "full" all good .. i don't have to second guess my career decisions- at the most I can change where i do it but I have the world at my disposal. I can go into the slums of India and make children laugh to forget about hunger.. I can into the highest peaks of Ulaanbaatar to teach them to brush their teeth the right way.. I have seen all these things and i still can do it again.

The young people that i spent the night with are fully grown..offering us adults advice on doing business, telling me how to "date", they are impatient to get out into the big world that will make or break them. We all must have confidence that God has them in his big big hands and will mend their broken hearts when it has been broken. They have to go the bitterness to enjoy the sweetness.. its such a chinese concept- bitter amongst a bit of sweet. And I am so thankful that I was part of this journey in the lives of these young men and women.





I want to be here at least once in my life.. Ladakh.. thanks to the wonderful person who took this picture

Interfering and waste of money.. i heard someone say

i have been the quiet observer of the human character for the last 32 years and i have to say i'm still such a amateur at it.Groups of people around me have apparently taken to conniving, lying, slander and manipulation to achieve their personal means. What amazes me is that they have taken the energy to create such strife, taken the chance to lift up poisonous pens, and willingly allowed themselves to participate in such devious acts. For what end?

Maybe if I stand far enough I would not be tainted by such slander. Who would think badly of me that they would try to drag my name through the mud? surely i have not offended anyone to that degree?

These men and women have hidden behind their big cars, companies, pearls and "professional advice". They have deliberately cheated our community of money and affections. And yet they are the ones that are the first the point fingers when things go wrong.. they are the first to pick out every negative and failed enterprise that our church leaders have tried their best to complete. Instead of positive feedback and bringing their "professional advice" to the table .. they rather send poison words to create low morale.

We are a community of loving people who want to use all our talents for God. We may lack in some areas but that is when we need everyone's input. Its terribly sad that these rich and comfortable members of our community labels these efforts as "interfering" and "wasteful". How can efforts be wasteful if it was to bring comfort and joy to the God's people?
