Updates from Ck

Sorry I wasn't able to update for so long. Really hard to find energy to do it. Spirit is willing but body is weak. Hope you all understand.

Thank you all for the encouragement you all keep posting and all the effort to affirm one another.

Not going to update about everything here but maybe just what I went thru recently.

Work is mind boggling for the past few weeks or er... months. Sometimes I just get angry with the school system and MOE. Other times, I get motivated to go on. I have an amazing group of colleagues that support one another. I learnt a lot from them. Everyday at work is fulfilling but most times more challenging than I am willing to face.

Nevertheless, God is gracious and I am still here. Now more or less stabilise. But one thing for sure, my expectations of work has to change. In the past, I thought I can always be in control of my work and choose when to work or when not to. I thought I can just devote my time to "God's purposes" easily. But after all these while, I have to adjust my understanding of that.

I think its alright now to suffer while at work. Especially in the initial phases. I know a lot of my weaknesses as a teacher and I am working hard on it. In the meantime, God never fails to pull me through those weakness. And I do get stronger. So while I may be so busy, please don't worry for me, I really see purpose in it all. I even know it when I need a break. Took MC recently and successfully avoided falling badly ill. My first for the year.

So all in all, i'm ok with work and busyness and I still try my best to ask friends like Ivan out and have time for CG. Please let me know if you wanna know anything more. I'm know there's lots you all are wanting to know.. hah.. pls dun expect me to blog too often though...

Another thing that I may be slow to respond to is sms. I dun carry my phone around and I sometimes find it hard to switch thinking mode to reply smses. Most times, I have to put on a different thinking hat to handle the things in school. Its very challenging and keeps me on my feet. So sometimes I read my phone only much later in the day or only reply later when I have time to think. So please understand. I dun want to feel constraint by another electronic device by being obligated to tend to it so often. So if you have anything urgent, feel free to call. If not, pls be patient and wait for my sms reply.

May day coming soon! Yay another holiday and rest day!

God bless you @ work too!
