Live in the presence


Few days ago, I was suddenly inspired by this wisdom words "Live in the moment"
As human especially in this new age, we tend to rush and worry about tomorrow and the future.
We seldom live in the presence.

What does mean "live in the presence" ?

It means we enjoy every moment of our situation right now. It may be undesirable situation or even it may be a comfortable situation.

When I reflected back about my life, when I was working a decade ago, I always thought to be a housewife and stay at home mom would be a perfect job. But when this "dream job" has come true, I was thinking how to earn more and more money either for my self fulfilment or this family.
In the end, I was not be able to live fully either becoming a working adult or staying at home mom.

But when this "live in the presence" suddenly struck me, it reminds me to enjoy "now" moments.
As God has called me to be a stay at home mom, I should make best for this call.
If this is God's calls, I should not be worry about family finances, He will provide our needs.

In the future, I don't know when, if God calls me to return back to workforce, He will lead me there and provide my needs to take care the children.
One thing for sure is in whatever situation, if we are tuning and always listen to God's cue, we will be able to grow either become working or staying at home mom.

Similarly with my hubby. His call is now serving this company, where he needs to do his best to become the blessings for the people surrounding him.
However, few days ago, he has this cue, to start something on his own. He may not know yet what and how, but I believe if it's God's cue for him, God will lead and guide him one step at time.

The important thing is be patient, walk slowly and not rushing God's time, and slowly His beautiful plan will be unfolded.
The secret to have a fulfilled life is "CHERISH THE MOMENT, LIVE IN THE PRESENCE"

Birthday Trip to Vietnam - Hanoi (Cafe hopping)

We spent our  last day in Hanoi  doing what we love most— café hopping ! The day started with a local breakfast of  Banh Cuon , a soft steamed rice roll filled with minced pork and mushrooms, quite similar to  chee cheong fun  but with its own Vietnamese twist. Light yet flavorful—perfect to kick off the morning. Next, we visited  Café Giang , the birthplace of the famous  egg coffee . Rich, creamy, and unlike any coffee we've had before—it’s a must-try when in Hanoi. Our last café stop was  The Note Coffee , a cozy and cheerful little spot decorated from floor to ceiling with colorful  sticky notes  left by visitors from all over the world. Their  iced coconut coffee  was refreshing and delicious—definitely a highlight. Since our hotel was located near  Train Street , we couldn’t resist visiting it multiple times— three to be exact!  We even had dinner there one evening, enjoying the thrill of the train zooming by ju...

As for me and my house will serve you Lord

Finally, I’ve joined the boys in serving at the Eucharist. It’s not my time, but His time. Two of the communion ministers were unable to serve on Sunday morning and requested to move to the Saturday sunset Mass. This left the group leader looking for replacements — and he thought of me, knowing that my hubby has been serving at Mass for 10 years. I said “yes” to the invitation, and so began my journey: the commissioning Mass on 3rd August, a Day of Recollection on 9th August, and my very first duty on 10th August. It is such a privilege to offer Jesus, in the Body of Christ, to His sheep. As I looked into the eyes of each parishioner receiving the Body of Christ, I saw so many different expressions. My prayer is that this gift of the Body of Christ will strengthen them in their journey, whatever season of life they are in.
