Time Flies

In a blink of an eye, January has ended; my birthday has ended, Chinese New Year has ended, holidays have ended; and it is the beginning of a new month ~

I feel that time passes too fast this time round; take a look at what I have described just now, four "seasons" have ended.

How do I feel about this year? Besides acknowledging that time flies, I think it is time to move on too.

Last month, I have decided to take an action which I never thought of taking. In fact, I told myself I would not take such a step but with the uncertainties ahead of me, I guess I just do not bother too much and be the aggressive one.

Life is not perfect, and a lot of times we hope that it is perfect. Sometimes we choose to wait for situations to be "perfect" before we decide to take an action. However, have you ever wonder about this: what if there is no tomorrow?

Recently I saw on FB that my friends are searching for their missing relative. At first, I did not think too much about it until few days later, I got to know that this relative was murdered. I do not know this relative personally, but she was from my previous Church, and for some reason, I did feel down knowing this piece of news.

There are a lot of times, we do not expect mishap to happen on us. We tend to take things for granted. We tend to think that there is always tomorrow, in fact, a better tomorrow. We tend to take advantage of our surroundings. We tend to procrastinate, thinking that we still have time to do things in future. There are many other things to be listed down.

If there is no tomorrow, what do I want to do today, so that I can "leave" without regrets? I think I would want to do a lot of things. In the meantime, just be practical and be grateful for what we have, and live life to the fullest.

Every morning when we are able to open our eyes and say "Good morning, Jesus", that itself is the greatest gift from God, because we can live another day to witness His grace and glory in our lives.

Time flies ~ be appreciative before it is too late...

Welcoming 2012

Hi All, this is my first post of the year and today is holiday and I got nothing better to do, so just drop by to post a few lines here =)  I came across this photo this morning :-

I have been praying a matter for quite some time and for some reason, I am taking action to make things work instead of waiting for things to happen. I do not know the outcome as this is not something that lies entirely on my end. However I know that by prayer and faith I would be able to get the answer from Him.

This is also the first time I am posting an entry with regards to this matter here; usually I would post entries like this in my other blog. LOL, maybe I am trying to open myself up.

Lord, I know You know the desires of my heart. Please lead me through. I cast this entirely unto Your hands. In Jesus' precious name I pray, Amen.

My 100th Post for year 2011

I was actually wondering whether I could have 100 posts this year and yeah, I made it. Well, I know it is a bit of a cheat because not all entries are originally mine but it is the number that matters anyway :p

So, I guess this should be a random post. I am still in the office at this hour, trying to rush documents for my appointment tomorrow. Oops, did I say the word "rush"? Then what am I doing here? Haha, just taking a bit of time off :-)

We are going to enter year 2012 soon and I am anticipating a more challenging and exciting year. I sort of forgotten to put in my previous post that I have done some challenging things this year itself.

I have enrolled myself in swimming lesson. I always have fear for water; I guess that was because I was almost drowned when I was six. I was just at the swimming pool, and all of sudden the float left me and before I knew what was going on, my whole body was in the water. My instructor said that I learned the techniques quite fast but it was my fear that controlled my mind and hence, I would not be able to graduate in five lessons. Hmm, at least I took up the courage to get over with this fear. Weng Yin, ganbate!!!

I have also enrolled myself in a basic counselling course and will start the course next year February. I am interested in this area and even thought of taking up Master in Counselling. Since I am able to study this at a cheaper rate, plus am learning it in a Bible School, I think this would be a better option =)

I do not know how, but I ended up joining the English Church Young Adults Cell Group. This is something new to me because I have grown up in a Chinese Church. It is indeed a pleasant experience. I just joined them for three times and looking forward for more =)

So, I am looking forward to more challenges next year. 2012, I am coming!!!! =)
