A bunch of all of us singing the birthday song :)
Bday present from sis and I. We went to the shop with the idea of 'a n earring which is suitable for mama even till the age of 80' :)
Yesterday I went to medical centre with my papa and mama. Mama's heart got blockage. In order to do the treatment procedure, then we need to do few tests, see few doctors, go this and that departments... To avoid domino problems happen. And this, take a full day off.
3 things I realised..
When you are sick..
1. You must have time to consult the specialists and follow up till you find out root cause of your sickness and get your sick cured
2. You must have financially ready to make thing more smoothly. Either you got medical card insured you to go through all the necessaries tests and procedures or you have cash flow to support all these..
3. Get yourself healthy, at least in the limits of what you can do eg balanced diet and sufficient exercise. On time body checkup routine for prevention maintenance. As once you find out A part in pain, because of B, that caused by C then bring effects to D too... All these ABCD need time and money.
So, these days, I got a little bit more serious about my health. Try not to skip my daily 30min treadmill jogging.. Then try watching out what the food I put in my mouth.. Try la, coz sometime, just being lazy or busy or just many excuses :p
Apart from keeping an eye to my health, something good I do lately is trying to be with my children, do things together with them, do housework more often, make sure their breakfast is prepared, more stories sharing... sounds like a good mum huh? Hehe
For my own self, I read more lately. Some journal and some academic books. Of course, for the best book in the world too - the bible I am trying to finish reading through it as a whole, target to get a small gift from the church for completing reading bible in a year :) I haven't got one yet for myself l, sometime, the whole year I study few of the books only.
This is books in bible New Testament. Those marked with stars are which I have completed reading for this year. Target to complete all by August. Then I shall catch up for Old Testament.
Am teaching my Sunday school class on Genesis. Then we are studying Book of Mark in weekly cell group. My children can share better than me on the 1st 12 books of Old Testament. Every Sunday night we exchange the stories of what we learning Sunday school classes. We started this night activities when it was recommended by the boy ^^
When we purchase electrical appliances, those things are coming with a booklet of manual on how to operate the TV, or rice cooker or washing machine. Now it is more easier when we can watch the video clip on how to use a sewing machine or how to use our smart phone in more smarter way...
God created us, you and me. and He has given us a manual of life instruction - The Bible with all His words that contains the solution for every problem you are facing today. The Bible is an encyclopedia on all subjects you can think of under the sun.
It is indeed sad to know about the story of people committed suicide because of facing problems or discouragement. Especially when this happened to my own relatives. We shall know the purpose of our living and life, then we shall embrace live to make our parents proud of and to glorify the God.
