Time for spring cleaning....for the soul (Part II)

Today I managed to call the personal empowerment contact person that my boss passed to me. Right now I need to pray for God to provide the resource and opportunity to attend the workshop. Hmmm...didn't realise that this kind of workshop can cost RM888!! It's supposed to be at Mont Kiara for a weekend but only food is provided, not a stay-in workshop. It should be sometime before the end of the year. She just needs at least 10 people to start the workshop but right now she only has about 4 people interested.

Gosh! I really need to work out my budget....what with Christmas coming and all. Time to get a little creative again this Christmas?? Do I have the time??!! Time is such a precious commodity to me....sigh. I need to MAKE TIME!! Just have time to start getting in touch with my soul again by making this simple list:

What makes me happy:
Dancing and singing in the rain!
Puppies and dogs...love to watch them sleep and eat
Making music...on my piano, violin, guitar...anything!!
Playing with children especially toddlers
The joy of sharing and seeing someone receive Christ
Thinking back of the time when I first discovered the way to heaven is free
Feeling and smelling the fresh crisp sheets of newly changed bedsheets
Watching the night sky and singing praise songs at 1am in the morning
Discovering a rainbow in the sky
Smelling the fresh air after a heavy rainfall
Giving and receiving presents!
Chatting and spending some light hearted moments with my friends
The look of a child when she discovers something new/exciting.
Walking on the beach
Snuggling in bed on a rainy day
Cheese....anything from mozarella to cheddar
Chocolate...anything from ice-cream to frapuccino.
A good haircut...and a hairdresser
Watching a good comedy
The feeling I get after a good workout.

Hmm....20 items...not bad for starters. This list is actually things I've done or experienced before. Some might think I must be crazy...but what the heck, it makes me happy and it's not illegal...hehe! Maybe the next list I should do is "What do I want to do before I die"....gotta find time for that.

Why so downcast O my soul?

Recently I seem to be having a few upheavals in my personal relationships and also those around me. Don’t you get the feeling that sometimes months go by without something big happening and all of a sudden it all just comes pouring upon you? Is it me or it is absolutely no fault of mine. *blinks innocently* In the past few weeks, I seem to have upset one of the most patient and sweetest guy I know…though not intentionally. I’ve apologized and tried to make things better but he hasn’t been replying my messages nor picking up my calls. Zip. Nada. Nothing. I don’t know but lately I feel like whatever I say or do, people seems to be reacting negatively or things just blows up in my face. Then my brother did a very good job in making me feel like a failure by letting me know I am not making enough to help with the family finances. It’s bad enough that I am already frustrated with the fact that I do not have the resources to get a degree or get a place of my own… or even my own wheels. Now h...

Abundant Life...Do you have it?

"E06? What's that?" I had people asking me this question when I told them I am going for a conference at SIB KL. I actually not sure what the "E" stands for so I actually asked Ps. Lee Choo and she said it stands for 'exist'...which has a long history behind it. That's another story.... I nearly didn't go because the people who were supposed to go, all pulled out and I was the only one confirmed going. I had some trouble with finding transport as well, but I felt that God wanted me to be there and He provided me with all my transport needs...God is so good! "So how was e06?" This was the second most asked question to me when I came back from the conference. So to save time...and breath I decided to answer all these questions refering them to my blog. Smart eh?!! Hehe...I am excited to share with everyone what I've learned at the conference so I 'm going to share about each session. I will try, I said TRY to keep it sh...

Between the Devil and the...Angel?

And finally the final book of the trilogy, “The Devil and Miss Prym” is the most interesting of all. In this novel about temptation is a thought provoking parable of a community devoured by greed, cowardice and fear as it struggles with the choice between good and evil. A stranger arrives at the remote village of Viscos, carrying with him a backpack containing a notebook and eleven gold bars. He comes searching for the answer to a question that torments him. Are human beings, in essence good or evil? In his sophisticated plot, he shows Chantal Prym, a young, simple girl in the village, where he buried his eleven bars of gold. After showing her the gold bars, he shared his plot to proof his theory that the nature of human beings when confronted with temptation, will always fall. He explained to Chantal, “ Everybody in this village is honest, starting with you. I showed you the gold bar, which would give you the necessary financial independence to get out of the village, to trav...
