Elaine's Farewell





Keep (Guard) your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life.



- Pro 4:23


In the last few days... things were alittle topsy turvy for me..


I felt really low in life. It's like the devil had plan it all up. I was feeling pretty alright the whole day. Wanted to send Elaine off 'gloriously'! without too much 'boo-hoos' and 'sniffings arnd. But it turns out someone down there had plan something for me that day.



First, we met up at popeyes as a group earlier. I felt alittle different.. and unnatural being there. And actually, i've got this feeling too at a farewell lunch with Elaine and her ex-colleagues. It's like a fish out of water feeling. But very soon after, that feeling 'evolved' abd i became negative and pessismistic over remarks by my friends. It really sucks to feel this way.



Then as we took pictures and say farewell... i suddenly felt very incompetent to take over the responsibility of taking care of cell group. Became very self-aware of my weaknesses .. (as if it's the only thing on earth i have and im doomed to die with it) and seriously ... the thoughts are heart-piercing. Eventually i suppress everything and there and then (which i eventually realise).. i just reformed my emotional wall. Defences were up. I became shutdown in order to stop these hurts. It took quite a toll in my communication. and the way i behave the next few days. And with the upcoming Valentine's day.. it feels like i will never do a enjoy and get something nice for Mavis. All these thoughts really crushes ya spirit. So really it's important to examine ya thoughts before it becomes full-blown , ravaging and out of control!







So Thank God. Guard ya heart. For out of it flows... the issue of life.



















I really miss Elaine. Without her shelter ... it feels naked. That's how Mavis tried to explain what i am going through. but it's alright! everything will work out and she'll be back soon! And our cg will have multiplied with 40 over members by then! yeeha

Office Routine.

This week's going kinda smooth so far for me. I just suddenly find time past very slowly in the office. Everyday goes on with almost the same mild intensity. The moment i step into the office, i will just feel that i left my brain back at home. Then i will see a big file full of papers. Just reminds me of school days where you get files after files of papers. With 2 years like this, i doubt i won't emerge free from Papyrophobia. [fear of paper] That amazing stack of paper actually belongs to my senior Jon. The scariness of it all is that i will soon inherit all his duties and face that Goliath everyday. Better learn from David how to slay these Goliathes effectively I still remembered how much a torture it is to be alone, handling all the deferments in my division. It is pretty horendous, judging by the number of unexpected things you'll get. Work isn't really a torture as a clerk. Its a drag. Well i am still happy that i have more time than others, who have to stay...

When the Answer comes.

Its amazing when you walk on. Just amazing .. In case you haven't read my previous entry, i was walking a lonely trail ... right deep in the dark valley. Its a very lonely walk. Its a very sad walk. Its just hard to explain and express.. I've learn in a real powerful way the meaning of walking on. Its exhilarating. When you found the key that unlocks your problem. It just blows you up with love and joy. What about walking on? I'm sure to all christians, you'll know this poise and cogent verse. Yea , though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I wil l fear no evil ... Psalms 23:4 This is the walk i'm talking about. The "Keep-On-Walking principle" Throughout the week, i am burdened with worries. These thoughts are self-replicating thoughts. Like for example: You will never live up to "Mom's" expectations. Everyone is moving on. You are just moving too slowly and or not moving at all. or Nobody in this damn world will ever un...
