What on earth am I here for?

I bet this question came across to each and everyone's mind. But how many of us got the answer to this question?
About 2 years ago, one of my friends gave a book to me.... called "THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE" by RICK WARREN.





This book consists of 40 chapter and the reader is encouraged to read a chapter a day. I read Chapter 1 and that's all. Well, to non-christian believer like me, this book is very difficult to understand and it won't catch your attention. I should also blame myself as I am not a gal that is really into reading books. I guess, all this while, I only read 3 - 4 books.......pai seh pai seh....

2 years after, my friend asked me if I am interested to join a course organised by a church. Well, all this while, i really wish i can join christian. To me, kids that grows in Christian family is always well behave. Maybe because since I am young, I mixed around with lots of Christian friend and many of my Christian friends are really knowledgeable and well behave.

At first, I felt a bit reluctant to join the course. This is because I dun wan to have aggressive people who always push me. So i rejected. However, I still see the flyer given to me...... when i read carefully, I saw the book "THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE" printed on it. This really caught my attention. Therefore finally I decided to join....partly also, my boss keeps asking me to join..... :p

My class is actually every Friday, 8pm to 11pm. It will end for 7 weeks.... to date, i have attended 2 classes...... yesterday class really makes me think that series of events happened for the past 2 weeks brought me to that class..... for the past 2 weeks, there are some "unreasonable" colleagues ane makes me real angry...... feel like crying..... but yesterday, I learnt during our discussion..... love those who hates u and bless those who curse u.... this really makes me feel better.....maybe i should not angry at them, but just cool myself...... like what is stated in the Bible .... Matthew 22:37-39, Jesus said the greatest commands are to love GOD and your neighbour and including your enemy....this is really my take away during my class yesterday..... so from today onwards, I sould always practice love those who hates u and bless those who curse u.......

From today onwards, I would share what I learn every class in my blog... so shall wait for next week class and see what is my take away.....

Farewell

This colleague of mine is quite special. The first day he joined my ex firm, my ex manager asked me to bring him out to client office to audit. Guess wat, the first client he goes to is Marriott!!! We are very lucky in the sense tat we got a very good treatment from them. We get to eat buffet everyday for lunch at his restaurant.... i really loves the cheese cake man.... !! and this cute colleague of mine even ask me, do we get all this free food everyday??!!?? What a innocent kid... :p well, from tat day onwards, he is being assigned to assist me in most of my audit..... well, at very first, i dun really like him. I complain him here and there, up and down. The thing i complain most is... his handwriting.....!!! Well, Mr. N, can u pls write better next time??!!!??? After few audits, and after a longer period of time being together, i found that he is a good assistant cum colleague. We used to work at client place til very late... as late as 2pm in the morning..... i remembered when my ex manager said, "all the assistant must not go home until the senior goes home" and his expression was "yes.... (*pause to think*) urrrhhhh.... , erm.... ok". He urh arr urrhh arrhh there cos he knows i definitely work til very late and he has to stay back cos of me.... hahhaha.... well, i did not torture him, i did ask him to go home when its about 10pm... but then he don't wan. He stayed back together with me, worried me, being a gal alone in the office til late night...... i should really say thank you to him... and also i am really touched by wat he has done to me all this while..... As time goes by, we are not just colleague, not just senoir and junior (btw he is my junior in secondary school) but i think a close fren... hahah yam cha kaki..... well, its time for him to go his own way (*on the very first day we meet, he already make known to the whole world tat he is going back to Australia for his PR in 2 years time*).

Tonight is the night! The night to farewell!.... arranged a farewell dinner for him and i guess he is touched ...... the most happy is we ended our "first me
et" in Marriott together with the same audit team..... Ms J and Mr N.... of cos there is an alien, Mr B....... 4 of us... hahhaha
