DEFINING MOMENTS
Church of the Holy Spirit, Upper Thomson Road, Singapore
December 2011.
For several months since I delivered my first-born child, I am in a predicament. While attending a mass at the Church of the Holy Spirit in December 2011, I have deeply prayed, and with close eyes I have silently asked God for guidance. As a faithful but a practical catholic, I was hoping to be relieved and did not expect any miracle out of it. But when I opened my eyes, I felt like there was full blown light in the Church,suddenly I felt elated and my mind seemed cleared that I felt I know exactly what I am supposed to do.
Back in 2008, I was happy and content with my life. I was working for a government agency that provides adequate compensation to finance my personal and partially support my parent's needs. I was physically active, playing badminton every weekend with huge group of friends. I was in a relationship with whom I get to travel and enjoy numerous gimiks with friends. That was up until my sister finally convinced me to try to work abroad,to expand my horizon and explore the better or best things in life. So I resigned from my job, bid farewell to my friends, packed my things and ventured to a world unknown. (Lesson learned: there will come a time, by your own choice or not, that you have to embrace changes in order to grow).
