31th October 2005,
It's Monday afternoon. Tomorrow will be holidays- Deepavalli, then another 2 days Raya. But I still work- Mon and wednesday working, wheras others has been enjoying their holidays back hometown. Today slow, maybe coz today still holidays mood, so I don't really work well. Had lunch with Dr. Lee and Jia-Shean just now. It's good to catch up, and always good to be around those people highly motivated and systematic. Dr. Lee has always been my role model in work, even so with Jia-Shean. They potrayed a good steward and leadership in managing people and skills in management and organisation. Am just sharing with them about the difficulty in getting support from Management and consultants on the new services. Yeah, realise that it's all require a lot of effort to convince the management and sharing with them on the profit and advantages. Convicing them...to convince. That's something I need to learn, to let them know the importance, to share with them my passion and to let others see the purpose. That's a part of Management and leadership. Need to motivate self to go on, again to be positive, whatever happen..knowing that I'm still serving the God of the heaven and earth, and not of serving man alone. To please people, or to please God. Learning, but sometimes need to be wise. To be wise as serpent and innocent as dove. When is it I need to be wise, when is it I need to be innocent. A tough lesson to learn. I believe all those working will go through that. Just need to find passion in work, because that will be the only thing that draw us going, push us forward...go on, extra steps, going forward, even in the midst of falling, fall forward ad not backward.
Went to Ipoh on Fri- Kenneth's wedding. It's wonderful, can see so many joy surrounds the couples- joys that is reap after all the trials and challenges. Yeah, relationship, another chapter to go through in life. In every chapter and season of life- it's something God wants us to learn and to go on, a journey with God. During the wedding ceremony, they sing songs- Power of Your love and Come to the Father. It just stuck me each time tis 2 songs played in church. I remember vividly when both of us (Celina and me) sing this song in our daday's funeral. And now it's sang in wedding...it just reflect of the love of the Father- just being who you are, don't need to do much, just being who you are, and He still loves you. In times if joy, in times of laughter, God is enjoying all the moment with us. Praise God I didn't cry in the wedding. Each time the 2nd song sang...tears will be rolling down my cheeck, and heart will be aching- missing dad and feel so sad...yet this time of wedding, it's different feeling. I guess it's more of the positive note, and assurance of the journey with God. The journey to Ipoh has been a blessing, I manage to know Adeline and Andrew better with the sharings in the car, and sense the love and hospitality in Andrew's house. Then able to meet up Ms Chua and get to go around the Pharmacy and Famitah Hospital. People that is matter. Meet up with the ex-CA rian, seeing so many of them with family, childrens and married couples, tho' it's a bit different, with them- family and myself still single, yet can see that family and joyous face, remind me of CA-time. Meet up with Gavin, spend almost 2 hours in the Jusco Coffee-Bean, talking in the noisy environment...gee, it's very much refreshing, meeting up with friends that experience the love of God- encourage me to go on the journey wth God. After wedding, drive bck Penang with Ching-Shian. Enjoy the journey and chats with her through-out the journey. Well-spent time this holidays. Looking forward for the coming "Lifa-Games" camp organised by PCC. Yeah...hmmm..Holidays mood, waiting to go back. Bless this day, my Lord!
