Still in one piece

Hey guys!

I am still in one whole piece. No weight lost, no weight gain. Still the same, except forced to be more patient with people who have no manners and people who forget that they are talking to a fellow human being with flesh and feelings over the phone. Yah, really leh, some people have absolutely no manners nor regard for people. Their lives are so sad. Worse is, they don't even know that their nicknames are listed on a hate list in the office, mind you, it is a real physical hate list. Anyway, heck. There is a minority of people who are damn grateful to my team for helping them. So for these people, we are contented to help.

Haven't blogged for weeks. Very busy at work. So busy that I have to force myself to take breaks. It used to be that I would have time to relax and share some tidbits with my colleagues in my former workplace, but now, siesta seems like a fantasy. Well, no complaints. This is what I asked for. I wanted faster pace and I wanted excitment. I hated boredom and now I have no time to be bored. I still haven't gotten the hang of things. Still don't understand all the stuff about market trading and bonds, equities, funds, etc. Haven't seen the big picture of why the whole bank exists to serve clients' almost incessant desire to accumulate more wealth. Hmm... maybe I will see the light soon. I don't see how I can contribute to this. Not meaningful, really. But I have no right to complain. I asked for this.

Haven't said that. I have made some new friends. Not as close as my former colleagues, but at least, I know we can become close.

Aiyah, my heart is not at work. My heart's in church, let's talk about church.

Anyway, Parachute Band came to my church last friday! Woo! and We also had a special guest artiste, Julia Grace, from New Zealand, the top top gospel singer in New Zealand, to perform a 2 songs for us. Her voice is totally angelic. I was mesmerrised by that beautiful sound. She looked great as well - dark hair, blue eyes. What a beauty! When Julia shared about how God gives you a dream and then things happened that make this dream seemed impossible and unreal, my heart started to break. I could feel tears at the edge of my eyes. Had to swallow that lump in my throat and control my tears, cos what Julia was sharing wasn't supposed to be make you cry. Julia said that 6 years ago, she came to Singapore and suffered a fracture in her foot. And God actually told her that He will bring her back to Singapore and she will do something more meaningful. 6 years later, last friday, Julia came to Heart of God Church, to sing and to ministerto us and to lead us into worship. What a way to fulfil a dream! I thought about that dream which God placed in my heart and all the things that happened or are happening, and I wonder, when will my time to fulfil that dream come? My dream and my purpose is to make people feel good about themselves, to redeem people's confidence. God, my dream is in your hands. Well, I have taken baby steps. My CG has graciously allowed me to do 2 events in that field already, and Pastors are allowing me to do something for new year's eve event as well. It's a small, but significant beginning.

okie, the lao gong and me are on leave today, will be meeting Alicia and Weena, to go see flowers to see what we can do for CREATE 2006. Yay!

Meanwhile, be good.

With love.
