Roadshow

i JUST came back from an 'education roadshow-trip',4 days, 3 nights. Technically speaking, "working -trip", but we had fun more than we work. Its more like a " compulsory holiday" for me: i don't have to pay for the hotels,good food,learnt things, i get paid,and most of all, my assessment date got extended. Well, its not a big amount of money that I'll get, but its not a bad deal after all...
I also got to know miss Amy aai ,Mr Eugene and standfer.
Socialy, mr eugene has a sanguine character, he's hilarious,humorous...he has been going to this 'roadshow-trip' for 10 YEARS d!! wow....
ms amy aai on the other hand has more melancholic character. She's more careful and precise in things , even when she speaks, she chose her words properly...oh yea, she loves to read too!!
Both of them has different ways of raising their kids, its interesting to listen how they apply them...
I shared room with standfer throughout d whole trip, its interesting to know her, her habit and curiosity of 'exploring' each hotels we went, stories of her and her daily life.I find that she has a kind and loving spirit...
oh yea, i had the chance to visit seng ee in chili's as well! How long have i wanted to do that!
and i didn't expected that mr eugene's car has a DVD player, we were watching charmed, two and a half men and everyone loves Raymond,....d whole journey is not boring at all...thank god for it :)

Thoughts confession

Overlapping of worries can eventually leads to many negatives situations-mentally,emotionally,as well as physically. one of the emotional effect is anger.It usually started from a seed of worrying something unpleasing-when the "starting point" or the "conclusion" of the unpleasing thing is not found, layers of worries overlap on top one another,n then the baby root appears...when plant grows, and the stem got fatter, we started getting "fed up" as well, -with all blind guesses of reasons and conclusions....and finally, it becomes deep root of anger.....everybody knows explosion of silent psychological anger is horrible...

I guess God knew this from the very beginning, that's why he mention and emphasis that we have to forgive people 7 X 7 times(actual meaning:infinity times)...besides forgiving people, in other way, it help some people to transform the "anger" as a "thing" to generate them to do positive things....

Its important that we don't chose the wrong move to make at such a time.From time to time, forgiveness and harmful hatred lay side by side in a person's heart,but yet the result of both roads are heaven and hell...the choice is ours...better make the decision fast before the negative one overpower the other.....

Joy

There's so many kind of ''life'' in this world, each of us are living one.....

while browsing through jo's pictures,Its interesting to look at how's her life is full of joy n laughter...how people make the full ''joy'' out of their life..

We missed sooo much fun in the fact that we can only live ONE kind of life ...there's endless joy out there. What we have, is limited time to explore those joy, isn't it such a waste to keep living in depression?

there's a phrase :''for every minute that you are angry (OR BEING NEGATIVE),you've lost 60 sec of happiness...''

Shouldn't we be doing things that will make us joyful? what's other ''better-intention'' for doing things you can find other than that?

Let's look into a bigger picture,to be able to keep yourself joyful in the long run, first of all, what makes you joyful?

then come along a list of questions u might need to consider:what kind of joy you want to have at which stage of life? how much joy can the current thing you do provides you?where can it lead you?

Then while achieving that , find an ''as joyful as possible'' way you can to do it....

If you have a these plan, you might not know where's your destination, but at least you're on a route where smiling faces and happiness appear when you turn your head and look back...one you should not regret on....

Thankful

Some days we forget to look around us
Some days we can't see the joy that surrounds us
So caught up inside ourselves
We take when we should give.
Look beyond ourselves there's so much sorrow
It's way too late to say I'll cry tomorrow
Each of us must find our truth, Its so long overdue
So for tonight we pray for what we know can be
and every day we hope for what we still can't see
ITS UP TO US TO BE THE CHANGE
and even though we all can still do more,
There's so much to be thankful for.
Even with our differences,there's a place we're all connected
Each of us can find each other's light
and even though this world needs so much more,
there's so much to be thankful for...

Prayer Before Starting Work

I found this somewhere and i really like it, its like a complete package of prayer that covers every single areas well....
My Heavenly Father,as i enter this work place,I bring Your presence with me.
I speak Your perfect order into this office.I acknowkedge Your power over all that will be
spoken, thought,decided,and done. Lord, I thank You for the gifts You have blessed me with. I commit to using them responsibly in Your honor. Give me a fresh supply of strength to do my job. Anoint my projects, ideas,and energy, so that even my smallest accomplishment may bring You glory. Lord, when i am confused, guide me. When I am weary, energize me. When I am burned out, infuse me with the light of the Holy Spirit. May the work that I do and the way I do it bring faith, joy, and a smile to all that i come in contact with today. And oh Lord, when I leave this place, give me traveling mercy. Bless my family and home to be in order as I left it. Lord, I thank you for everything You've done, everthing You're doing, and everything You're going to do. In the Name of Jesus I pray, with much love and Thanksgiving....Amen.

Selfish vs Inconsiderate

selfish vs inconsiderate....r they the same? to me--NO.
i define selfish as one who knows CLEARLY all options,all pro and cons are layed in front of the person, and yet one choses to make the decision that benefits HIMSELF the most.
Inconsiderate,on the other hand, means one who make decision whithout clearly knowing (or reminded of) all possible options,and made choices that might offended people,unconciously.This fella, might not think deep enough.that's why the words are put together:IN-CONSIDERATE = CONSIDER-NOT-ENOUGH)
Both selfish and inconsiderate people might made same decisions (or took same actions..),but they did it with different intention....one is self-centered; the other-lack of thoughts...
If you kindly point out facts,options,pros n cons to an ''inconsederate'' person, he might change his choice.
So,try not to judge people as ''selfish'' just because they made a ''not-so-good'' choice,they might jsut be ''inconsiderate'',try to take an ''kindly explain'' move, things might just get better.

My Prayer

MY PRAYER

I pray HE'll be your eyes
and watch you where you go
and help you to be wise
in times when you don't know
let this be our prayer
as you go your way
lead you to a place
guide you with HIS grace
to a place where you'll be safe.

I pray you'll smile this bright
in all your sorrow times
and grab HIM as your light
when all the roads are blind
may strenght is what you'll gain
peace and health go along your way
may it be this way
may you move on with faith
till the day i see your face.
