Noein

An update on the week that has just passed... It was tiring of course, but a lot more bearable than the previous week. No really definitive moments after my tuesday post... But I'm getting used to all the lecturers and their styles.

A couple of simple things that happened along the way:
1. Wednesday: Went for Roman's teaching chapter 4-5.
2. Thursday: Went for YE Meeting
3. Friday: Lead in SYC for the topic on Passion
4. Saturday: After YE went to my cousin's new house, The Pinnacle @ Duxton
5. Sunday: Played for main

Out of these few I'll highlight the last 3. The teaching on passion was exceptionally beneficial for me, definitely facilitating the discussion on certain topics you learn the most about it. I suppose I'm not a very passionate person, but after thinking about it I shall try to be as passionate as I can be for everything that I do, even though I don't outwardly show it. Its only fitting as a way to show my love for God for everything He's placed in my life, even the seemingly mundane. And I believe having passion will be part of the solution for me being too hard on myself... Only time will tell whether it'll work out.

As for points 4 and 5... I'm really enjoying myself playing in main. Today as I played the songs for the kids - Jesus you are so good and I love you Jesus, I really expressed these things without inhibition as I played, which was a really special experience for me. Visiting my cousins house was another great experience, with gardens on the 25th and 50th floors, even though its a hdb flat. I would've been able to spend hours in the gardens just looking at the view and enjoying the feel of the breeze. Wanna go back there to visit them again one day.


Finally, I'm now watching an anime called Noein. Very very interesting, and its of the sci-fi genre. Basically in the anime many alternate dimensions exist, and in one of them people are forced to live underground as unknown dimensional monsters begin attacking that world. The people of that world are forced to look in different dimensions for something called the Dragon's Torque, something that can detect and alter dimensions to save themselves. They chance upon in a dimension set 15 years in the past, and some people are sent to retrieve it... The people from the future meet themselves from the past... And the rest you've gotta watch for yourself.

Makes me wanna meet myself from 15 years in the future, or perhaps 15 years in the past. An interesting concept, don't you think. Maybe I'll be able to? When I'm 15 years older and read this blog once over.

Digimon

 I'm feeling quite nostalgic and have been thinking about my childhood a lot recently. A lot of it is because of the retreat I just had with my CG members and how having such a retreat reminded me of days that were more slower paced and more relaxed.  It makes me want to relive some of my memories. Two ways that I've thought about is soccer - I've been watching some of the World Cup matches, and it reminds me of the late nights I had watching matches when I was 15 or so and just starting this blog. About how soccermugger came to be in the first place and how I wanted this platform to post about soccer scores and how I felt about the matches I watched. The other way is to watch old anime, and I'm thinking about revisiting the first ever anime I watched which was Digimon. It was televised in Mandarin at 8am, and I remember waking up early on the weekends to watch it fervently. Maybe its time to do that again.  In general I guess my inclinations are to be more at ease and

Ride On

Recently things have been going really well. I've had a leadership position in my workplace for almost one year now and it is quite amazing how God has guided throughout the way. Despite this I feel that I have achieved the balance between my work, personal life and I'm in some sort of a flow that makes me satisfied about how things are going. I'm about to transition to another stage of it, and it feels that along the way God has prepared me each and every step. There's a lot to give thanks for.  Things are really cruising along. I've always liked a good, smooth drive and life feels that way at the moment. Its been a long time along a bumpy road but finally things feel right.  Praise be to God who calms the raging seas. Praise be to God who can be counted on for the hardest difficulties in life.  Not sure when the next post be, but I think if things carry on the way they are, more good posts are to come. 

Vanguard

It’s taken a long time, but I think my heart is finally at peace. It’s been a tough journey but I am glad to say the worst of it is over. At the moment am surrounded by those who matter to me and I am doing meaningful things. Truly thankful that God has returned me to such a state.  In this season of Good Friday and Easter the word Vanguard comes to mind. Maybe it’s that season of life where God is exactly that for me, where we will be together in uncharted battlegrounds in both personal and professional life.  Not too sure when my next post will be but hope the next will be better than the last. Until next time!
