Blessed

It has to be one of the most mundane birthday I have ever had. Started my day in Community Rehab Clinic seeing primary students with learning disabilities. As much as I love helping the students with learning problems, it drains the energy out of me. So many factors, so many ways to help. It can also be frustrating looking at how our rotting education policies are not helping out children in the rural places at all. Life is unfair.

Saw 8 patients through the morning, had lunch with boss and ward rounds which ended at 4.30pm with some discussion on coming courses and paediatrics related activities. Working with my current boss give makes us pushing ourselves to the limit. Her unlimited energy shows us what human is capable of doing. Planning after planning, project after project. Trying my very best to achieve a quarter of what she does.

Brought my camera out when I went for my routine jog hoping to shoot some dramatic sky but was gloomy. Went home after 8 laps, cook myself a nice filling dinner and studied.

As mundane as it could be, still took the time to reflect and count my blessing. Grew up with a super mom who brought me to this world 28 years ago, married the love of my life and now a father of a boy. Despite the future uncertainties with our current state of economy and politics in our country (heard that Mr Prime Minister? Citizens are suffering), I believe God will pull us through and bless us more than we can contain.


Recently inspired by the lyrics of this song by Hillsongs. Word of the season indeed.



If my heart has grown coldThere Your love will unfold
As You open my eyes to the work of Your hand
When I'm blind to my way
There Your Spirit will pray
As You open my eyes to the work of Your hand
As You open my eyes to the work of Your hand

Oceans will part nations comeAt the whisper of Your call
Hope will rise glory shown
In my life Your will be done

Present suffering may pass
Lord Your mercy will last
As You open my eyes to the work of Your hand
And my heart will find praise
I'll delight in Your way
As You open my eyes to the work of Your hand
As You open my eyes to the work of Your hand
