A walk down memory lane

On Sunday morning, I went breakfast with my family to a place where I have not been there for quite awhile. I could have said no and my brother would haven driven us somewhere but yet, a part of me had decided that I will no longer be attached to the past and hence, it jus meant I do not need to fear or worried abt evoking memories of the past when I go to certain places in Singapore.

Ghim MOh, once held so much memories.. Mostly sweet.. As I stepped to the neighbourhood, strangely enough, there were not much of nagging feelings within. Instead, I looked at the neighbourhood jus as it is. Of cos, I passed by the block which once hold the person I loved most. But since a few weeks ago, I made a decision to totally let go and let God. Never had I had such a strong conviction on that. Perhaps God has let me be lazy on this issue for a long while. Its time I bucked up too. Anyway, the neighbourhood looks the same to me. Of cos, some memories just raked up again. But strangely, its not as strong as before.

Perhaps this time, I had really succeeded in putting the past behind. :)

Opportunities

Its been awhile since I last blogged. I was pondering about a good topic to write about. Recently, a chance of a lifetime came to me beyond my wildest imagination.

What happened was that I was recently transferred to a new team temporary to help out in the transfer of a project from a local team to the production team in China. It was absolutely a differnt jobscope I had previously. Well, I worked and worked. Little did I know, the manager was pleased with my performance and offered me a position in China. This will be equivalent to a double promotion and of cos, a good expat pay. Managerial position is what I had always strive for in all these years. Now.. at just a blink of an eye, I had it all. It seem God heard my prayer as well regarding wanna go overseas and worked for a yr. Except the location is so much different from what I prayed for.

Opportunity... just strike at the unexpected moment. It came totally unsoundedly. But what is more important rite now will be what I valued more in life. Is this shift God's will or my will ? Is this a test from Him who knows very well I wanna escape from it all... What will happen to my parents if I leave home for a number of yrs ? More than anything, what will happen to me there ? Will I be able to find frens like what I had now in the family of God ? Finally, all these unease stirred within. There and then, I knew it is not God's will for me. Hence, I made the next move. Rejecting the offer... Well, my colleague said I was not bold enough. But it doesnt matter what he said as long as I have peace of God within me.. Knowing that He has greater and better things for me in the future to come. This is truly what I have take years to realise...
