Parents as a source of strengths and comfort

After staying with us for 2 months plus, we bid farewell to my parents yesterday. They went back home to carry on with their own life. 

At first, I was so nervous when they decided to come to Singapore and stayed for 1 month, because we will be very busy with works and school and nobody can entertain them, thus I am afraid they will get bored.

However, things turned out better, they were willing to help out with simple household chores, cooking for our kids and taking care of the kids' wellness. My dad loved to go to wet market to buy his grandchildren's favourite fruit - mango and hubby's favourite fruit - pomelo. He can go there 2 - 3x a day and even able to see the price movement of fruits hahaha and knew which stall sells the good bargain.

While my mom, enjoying chatting with her friends through phone when she's rest. She enjoyed cooking and thanks God they are healthy and joyful.









I thank God for the time spent together and treasured every moment we had from eating out, holiday, witnessing our second's son' s first communion and all encouragement words.

I hope we could go for Holy Land pilgrimage next year.

This is our last meal together with my dad's favourite food - noodle :) and last picture before their boarding :)

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 ...

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...
