HOME

The wheels rolled out followed by a slight thud on the ground and the plane touched down. Saw the control tower and the sign that says " Changi Airport". Handphones out of the pocket, message and call tones rang and I knew I was back home. Truly Singapore. Hardly seconds to my return, I've had a few messages after another asking me about projects, appointments etc. All of which were absent in the last 2 weeks when I was away. Missed those 'quiet' moments. But I'm back to reality and I cannot run away from it. Re-entry time.

All good things must come to an end. My 2 weeks adventure in Vietnam & Cambodia have concluded but the memories I've had will remain ever so vivid. Till now, I can still recall the moments upon arriving in Vietnam on the 7th of Dec.

So while the trip is still fresh in my head, I shall continue my blogging (I stopped at Day 4 I think!). Meanwhile I've not stopped looking at the 1200+++ pics I took. Personally, I wish I had a month but shall not be greedy. Contented that I had 2 weeks break but backpacking is utterly addictive. There's no end to it. Once you start exploring, you just want to continue. Healthy addiction I suppose!

Anyhow, I'm pretty sure I will be going on another trip (not so soon though). Will start saving up and when the time is ripe, I shall be off again. Hopefully for a longer period (1mth, 6mths or even a year!). Always game for a bigger adventure!

SHAKING OFF THE DUST

Its been a long hiatus :) So many things have taken place and so many reflections to document but the inertia to do it was just to great to resist. Anyhow, decided to take some time during this break to start the 'blogging engine' going again. Hopefully, it revives my hope and wish to keep this site alive.  Just had the annual ODAC camp @ Ubin and while trekking around the island with the kiddies yesterday, I chanced upon this little grasshopper at the Sensory Trail. I managed to get up close and personal for this shot, which was taken with my new iPhone 7 ahem. Image was sharp and it looked great!  And the verse that came to mind was: "Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?....Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." - Matthew 6: 26-34 In my rest...

PSALM 121

I lift my eyes to the hills - where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip - he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel, will neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord watches over you - the Lord is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all harm - he will watch over your life; The Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore. Many a times, man fails to keep his promise but God never. He makes a promise and we can be so sure He will keep it forever and ever. Man may fail but He nevers. Sometimes, we may wonder if God is really doing the right thing for us but I know one thing - trusting Him is the only thing that can never go wrong :)

Count your blessings

I bought this set of keychain for my gramps. So cute right? They both love it to bits man! Haha..I'm proud of myself. A wise person said this to me this morning: "when you count your blessings, you will find many things to be thankful for...". True true. Been rather short fused these days and especially with family members. My grandma bore the brunt of it on monday when she suddenly appeared at NCC with my grandpa. I wasn't expecting her and so when I saw her, I was quite mean to ask why she was there when I actually know her intentions. I felt the way I felt because firstly I was already bothered about how to take care of grandpop when he sighs and worries about his discomfort and blah and then grandmop comes along and be herself (complain complain and ask same questions 1001 times etc). Double whammy! Anyway in a nutshell, the wise person told me early in the morning that grandmop upset that I brushed her aside that day, which I know was baddie bad bad :( ok i will...
