Passion Above All Else

["The purpose of a doctor or any human in general should not be to simply delay the death of the patient, but to increase the person's quality of life." - Patch Adams]

Last night, my friend, who is a medical student, felt really sad when she aware that sometimes the medicine that she studying couldn't help the dying patient. And I completely understand how she feels...

..........

Whether you are a doctor, or a nurse, or any medical worker, your passion in your work must be always above anything else! But sadly, when someone is too immune to their job and make it into a routine task or make their job to earn more money instead of earning a living, slowly their passion will be replace! I am a human and can be very easily caught up with my duty as a Radiographer, nothing but scanning and making sure that every examination done on time and also there is no delay in any appointment! But I really thank God for constantly reminding me about my purpose of life as an ambassador of Joy for every suffered ones especially the cancer patient.

Although, at times, I can't do much for some of my patients but I know one thing for sure is that I can lend my ears to them and give them my best-est SMILE, prayerfully my little effort can bring them joy! I strongly believe that a CHEERFUL heart can does good like a medicine!

"A cheerful heart is good medicine,
but a crushed spirit dries up the bones."
-Proverbs 17:22

..........

You only have one life, do something about it by living it passionately! :)
God bless!

The Weakest Me

"Do you ever have a problem in your life?"
"Why are you always smiling?"
"I like your 'No problem' attitude!"
"He always say 'Don't worry, it's okay!'"
These are the questions or comments that often times I received from people around me. Well, this is just one part of me.

People seldom see my weakest side which I always hiding! Probably pride is the main reason why I am hiding them; not willing to show the weakest me! Secondly, my assumption also one of the contributing factors; assuming people will not understand my weakness and also assuming on how people is going to look at me with my weakness!

What makes me or give me the courage today to write out this post about my weakness? Maybe because I am too tired of hiding and little by little of the tiredness that built up slowly in me eventually it would hurt badly someday, as now it's already hurting! 

I never pretend to be someone I am not; what you see is what you get especially the bright side of me! Therefore I am not pretending to be positive by hiding my weakest side. Nope!

I always make mistake and I am learning from my every mistakes to be a better person. Meantime, I always encourage people not to be disappointed by the mistake that they made because it can help them to be a better person BUT every time when I make mistake, I allow people to penalize me and I allow myself to accept my failure uglily and carry the heavy guilt by blaming myself and keep apologizing! But why? Why am I so harsh to myself? When people make mistake and they don't even bother to care how someone's feel and yet they can live they life as if like nothing happen!

Sometimes, I need to carry the guilt of something that I shouldn't be blame for. Maybe it is my mistake to be a people pleaser and the 'yes' man! Always being kind and gentle and always genuine but yet my emotionally is abuse badly and often my kindness and my gentleness are taken granted for!

As an extrovert, love to mix around and like to talk a lot has slowly turning into myself into an introvert because I am not willing to risk another painful event!

I know that I shouldn't be living in my guilt but the pain is just too real. I know God will see me through, He will and all I need now is His strength!

The S.E.O.W. Retreat

Out of so many blessings that I received from God, belonging to this AWESOME Cell Group and meeting all these FANTABULOUS creations of God in the Cell Group, no doubt it is one of the best! And we called ourselves as 'The S.E.O.W.' What does 'S.E.O.W.' mean?

[S.E.O.W. pronounce as 'Siao' in Hokkien, means 'Crazy' - We're a group of believers who are Crazy for Christ!]

[S.E.O.W. also pronounce as 'Xiao', means 'Smile' or 'Laugh' - "The Joy of the Lord is your strength! - Nehemiah 8:10"]

[S.E.O.W.; S - Sanctuary; E - Edifying & Encouraging; O - Outreach; W - Worship in Spirit and in Truth; The Cell Group is our Sanctuary and it is also a place where we Edify and Encourage each other. And our Cell Group's vision and mission is to do Outreach, reaching out to the lost, poor and sick by bringing the Good News and the Love of Christ. And we Worship the Lord in Spirit and in Truth!]


Last weekend, we had our retreat to Malacca! We had so much fun and laughter during the two days and one night retreat! Personally, it was a great retreat for me and I really rested well in the Lord and physically also recharged! Not to forget all the yummy Malacca's foods that we had! [Thumbs up!] Oh ya, and also the WONDERFUL home stay that we stayed, 'Apa Kaba'; no doubt it is a nice place to stay and you might have the opportunity to meet people from different parts of the world! 
















































God bless! Cheerio :)
