Updates: 2014 - Present

Dear Blog,

It has been a while since I last wrote extensively.  Perhaps with some time on my hands now, I shall briefly update about what has been going on in my life.  Time really flies and I have been married for 2.5 years.  I'm in a blissful marriage, yes, I praise the Lord for that! :)  Nat and I are waiting for our flat which would approximately be available by the end of 2018 (considering renovations and all).  Regarding children, yes, Nat and I would love to be blessed with at least 2 children, but we are waiting for our flat (as mentioned) and also based on current circumstances and commitments, we shall wait.


2014


During our honeymoon 2 years ago, I had my dreams came true; we visited London and caught a fleeting glimpse of Queen Elizabeth, and went to Vatican City, Sistine Chapel, saw the statue of David and admired the works of Michelangelo.  I am extremely elated and grateful.  Those memories would no doubt be stored in my long-term memory.

I also returned to church 2 years ago.  God led me to Bedok Lutheran Church.  During 1 sermon, the preacher was preaching about the Prodigal Son; I sensed that the Holy Spirit was speaking to me because I could strongly relate to this particular parable.

2015


Travelled with my 2 best friends.  Finally with the both of them!


Present

Some personal goals that I had was to read widely.  As an English undergraduate, the books that came along with it helped.   I would love to read even more; much more.

I can never thank God enough for my job!  I love my job and I'm growing a lot as a person.  However, I think I need to remind myself that God is my priority, followed by my family.  Help me not to lose sight!

I also sensed a seachange in my life, re-prioritising sometimes makes me feel like I have fewer friends, but I guess this is the season in my life that I'm given leadership and responsibilities and I will do my best to serve God.

~

While I doubt anyone close to me is reading this (except for Nat), I am somewhat sure I will read this again sometime in the future.  All I want to say at this point is, I am extremely grateful to God for all that I have and my prayer is for Him to mold me to be the kind of person He wants me to be.

Love,
Pam

Love is Kind

So I went jogging and insisted on continuing even when the heavens gave me clue that it'll pour anytime soon.  It rained and I was drenched.  Since it was getting late, I had to walked on by to get home.  While I was at the traffic junction, a contruction worker sheltered me with his umbrella for a short distance.  I was really touched by his kindness.  Thank you, Lord for showing your love through the people around me.

Honouring Mr Lee Kuan Yew

23 Mar 2015: While getting ready for work, Nat told me that Mr Lee Kuan Yew has passed on. I didn't expect the multitude of sadness that followed. Found out that Prime Minister Mr Lee Hsien Loong would be addressing Singaporeans on his father's death at 8am and my heart went out to him. As I was watching his address, I am reminded that no matter who he is, he is still his father's son. When I see the profile and cover pictures of many of my friends changed into mono colours, I see unity and appreciation. By human standards perhaps we may debate about whether he is a good leader, but I believe he was called to serve with the others when Singapore really needed one. RIP Mr Lee Kuan Yew.

A Fall

Dear Blog, I just had a fall while running in my flat-heeled office shoes. I didn't feel embarrassed dropping flat on the floor. Instead, I felt a growing pain from both my knees. My brain signaled for my legs to walk and soon I reached my destination with blood-crying knees. Why was I so careless? Was browsing through my past entries, time has passed and well, a lot more to improve on in my life. Occasionally, I wish to say, be contented. However, I can't. Because it simply is not good enough. I guess, that's what a twenty something should be contemplating. After all, only about a quarter of our lives is gone. Had been playing RISK board game with my honey on 2 consecutive Sundays. This game taught me a couple of lessons:- (a) Nobody is declared the winner unless the game ceases, by either party surrendering or by conquering the lands of your opponent; (b) Even if you are losing huge armies, it doesn't mean you are the loser; (small can fight big) (c) Take it easy!
