Natural Versus Caesarean

Just watched a video regarding natural childbirth.  I must say that I really cringe at the words, "give birth" due to the scary images of TV drama serials and my own mother's experience (she gone through the C-section aka Caesarean).  However, I have met a few relatively young mothers and most of them encouraged me to give birth in the natural way when my time comes.  One of them told me several advantages, one of which is that in some/rare cases if you choose to go through the C-section for your first child, there is a risk that you may not be able to give birth to another child (cannot remember the reasoning but it did discourage me to go through the operation and instead to go natural).  I am not sure how scientifically correct this information is but have tried researching a little on this.  Overall, it seems that there are aplenty advantages for natural childbirth.

Do watch this video if you are interested.  I'll pray about this and when the time comes, God will guide me to make the best decision for me and my future child. :)



Love,
Pam

Acquaintances with Benefits

When I was young (in upper primary), my birthday wishes were similar.  It was to have many friends.  That could be due to the fact that I am an only child and may feel lonely at times.  Thanks to my best friends (you know who you are), I seldom feel lonely.  I can easily identify who my best friends are.  They are people I would ask for opinions on important decisions I have to make, meet relatively regularly (at least bimonthly, quarterly) for chit-chat and my life would have been very different without them. According to Robin Dunbar , in order to maintain stable social relationships where an individual knows who each person is, and how each person relates to every other person.  Friends are essentially different from acquaintances.  Acquaintances are typically: #1. People whom you may have only met a few times at an event/function; #2. Classmates/schoolmates/coursemates you have encountered casually; #...

Personal Perspective on CHC Fiasco

My personal perspective on the City Harvest Church fiasco: #1. God is omnipresent (present everywhere), omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing) and God knew about this episode. I believe God is watching.; #2. The CAD does not charge without concrete evidence (they have taken sufficient time to investigate - 2 years). May justice prevail.; #3. It is unavoidable for members of the public with little information about Christianity to judge.  It is also one of my weaknesses to be quick to judge/form negative impression about others, which is unhealthy.; #4. I believe to a certain extent, the message of giving and tithing is relatively strong in City Harvest Church - I may be wrong.  (fyi, I have visited the church a couple of times) My personal belief is that it is important to give to God because God is the creator of everything that exists. He owns everything and we are simply stewards of what we have been entrusted with.  Though I h...

Outlier

It is always amazing meeting outliers. One who respectfully defies what ageing means in recent decades.  It is awesome to encounter a senior (almost twice my age) who is fitter than me. So inspiring! She embodies the example of good stewardship and living well in the last trimester of life 🧓🏻💛
