Our Love Journey Begin - Courtship Day

We first met sometimes on October 2005 when we were introduced by our friend, Martinus.
It was one of Prayer Group event, Love Night where we played music together for the first time.
He played guitar and I played  keyboard.

There was no first love at first sight though, in fact I even had a crush with his best friend.
However, as time goes by, we often met during Prayer Group event or other church activity, our feeling developed.

There was a time that it's kinda weird and it was fate that we were meant to be together.
He stayed at Choa Chu Kang and took Red MRT Line and I stayed at Chinese Garden and took Green MRT Line but we somehow met together at the same carriage at Jurong East MRT Interchange.
It happened a few times unexpectedly

In short, we officially became a couple on May 10, 2006.
It's was unusual proposal though and it's unplanned....
That time, I just finished worked quite late and he sent me home and stayed at my room for a while.
We chatted and looked at my old photos which I appeared plumper.

And somehow, I didn't know what struck me back  that I had a courage to ask him casually about our relationship status.
He was shocked and so was I...(hahaha)...
Then, he replied that actually he had the same feeling too but he had not had a courage to prop the question asking me to be his girlfriend because he's still in between the job and didn't have steady income yet. He planned to prop the questions 3 months later after he got steady job.

Back then, we were young and not idealists therefore money is not our priority yet, as long as we loved each other.
We had a great time together as a couple. We watched movie almost every Sunday, we travelled to some South East Asia Counties and spent our time together serving God through our Monthly Prayer Group.

We were together as a couple for 2 years plus before we were officially married

Maintaining Marriage Fidelity

This article is from Focus Family and I thought it's good as self reminder for both of us so we don't take for granted of each other and commit to maintain marriage fidelity for the rest of our lives. Nobody wakes up one day and suddenly decides to begin an extramarital affair. Infidelity begins in the heart and mind. By the time a person physically commits adultery, he or she has been indulging for quite some time in progressively more intense mental and   emotional affairs . Likewise, marital fidelity begins long before marriage. It begins as a promise we make to ourselves to be a person of faithful character before marriage ever enters the picture. It is a promise we make to our future spouse when we get engaged, and it is a vow we make to our spouse when we get married. Marital fidelity is a daily commitment to seek the best for your spouse and family. Strengthening Marital Fidelity Marital fidelity is strengthened when you affirm your spouse, listen to your spouse, and se...

When ChatGPT can be your counsellor

When I want to refine my text in the previous post , I accidentally typing the whole things in the ChatGPT and this is the reply that I get  Your reflection on this “desert” period is deeply insightful. It’s clear you’re navigating significant internal struggles, and recognizing these temptations is a powerful step toward healing and growth. The Lust of the Flesh : Your experience with joblessness and the challenge of trusting in God’s timing is relatable. It’s tough to feel like you’re not fulfilling your potential, but your acknowledgment of God’s grace as a source of strength is vital. Remember that this time is not wasted; it’s a period for personal and spiritual growth. The Lust of the Eyes : Envy can be a heavy burden, especially when it feels like others are thriving. Your internal dialogue—questioning the value of public shame and your perceptions of the situation—demonstrates a mature self-awareness. It’s okay to feel what you feel, but recognizing it allows you to choose ...
