Save the best for last !

At night we decided to go ahead with our dinner date. In the car, he just kept quiet and I am asking them what's going on. He told me that he's still hurt from last night incident. Trying to help him, I told him perhaps it's time for him to seek God again. Maybe this one year is so overwhelming and he may feel lost and I told him many other things. Guess what, it's the worst advises I gave, he feels more hurt and angry with me. In the end I just said sorry as I am trying to help him. I told him that I have been looking forward for our date and try to save the day, but if it makes him worse, I apologize for that. Thanks God, the bar's ambience, the staff, the food and drink save the day. The bar is so unique, from outside you only see it as mamashop, but when we go in, it's transformed into modern classy bar. The food is very delicious, the booze is perfect, I love the concoction of it and the staff is very friendly and accommodating our request well. In the end,...

When date doesn't go well !

Today, I am taking a leave and have planned to spend the time together with hubby to have quality couple time. I have booked the lunch and dinner a month ago and have been looking forward into today. However, suddenly things don't go well according to what I am expecting. Last night, my hubby dropped the bomb. I was tired after the whole day and he dropped the bomb before sleeping. I can't think so I just said sorry if I didn't communicate well and hurt him and just went to sleep. This morning, the day I have been looking for. I woke up early since I will be training a new client. Along the way, he is just silence and only answers when I ask questions. Since I don't want to effect my morning mood, I just go along. After he picks me up, we go to Botanical garden for morning walk. During the journey and our morning walk, then we start talking what makes him unhappy. He told me what happened yesterday, what he expects me to do, what he offers himself to do. I am so overwhe...

Dance like nobody watching !

This is our 3rd week joining Bachata Partner dance and we have so much fun in the past 3 weeks. It's time to practice, and it's not easy for hubby who never dance before. He  uses his logic to memorise and analysing the steps and it's something new for him in the world of dancing. However, there are many life lesson we have from this Bachata dance. 1. Husband is the Leader, Wife is the follower Basically if the leader doesn't give the clue what is the next step, the follower won't know what's next. If the leader makes a wrong step/move, it jeopardize the whole dance. However, if the follower makes the wrong step/move, it's still can be saved. 2. Leader must take charge to lead, follower must be humble enough to be lead It's a struggle for me, sometimes I know what should do next but I can't lead instead giving him a chance to lead. There are many occasion that he is totally blank eventhough we have choreograph the steps and I want to take a charge bu...

Restore - Refresh - Renew our marriage (CSF 2021)

This year we are grateful that eventhough it's pandemic, we are able to attend online couple retreat organised by HSM Surabaya. We attended the offline CSF retreat 3 years ago at Batu, Malang. It's a memorable retreat which we had fun, totally giving ourselves to each other without any distractions while gaining more knowledge and faith to strengthen our marriage. After 3 years, we decided to join again to recharge and revive our love sparkles.  The program run for 3 days, Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. It's not full day since we still need to take care our family and kids. Still, we are gaining something. Yes there are tears during our pillow talk since it's pruning time and it's not easy when you need to be out of comfort zone to be a better person. However, we are enlighten by the end of sessions and as our next project and commitment, we are going to be a cathecist for our kids bring them closer to God and nurturing their faith. Psssttt as a bonus we win photo ...
