Peace-Maker

One of my HAPPIEST moment
- Happened not too long ago when a professional from MCYS commended that what I was doing with my kid was actually a therapy - of which I do not know! She was surprised that I was only in my new dept for 5 months. She thought I have been working with kids the whole of my life. When she said that, I said a prayer and thank God for giving me great favor at work & leading me to a job that's in sync with my gifting.

One of my ANGRIEST moment
- Happened not too long ago also. I was very frustrated when a school is not cooperating to help alongside for my kid. It's really frustrating when the Home is doing everything they could to help a child but the school is not willing to. Schools are usually the best place to teach a child social etiquette & social norms. I was really angry - to the point of tears.

Last night, I met up with a friend at Villa Bali for a meal. Updated our current life & somehow, towards the end, we questioned each other on our most embarrassing, angriest, happiest & moment. (Hehe.. I shall NOT share my most embarrassing moment).

On my way back, I was thinking that my workplace has indeed a learning place for me. Given me last time, I doubt I will stand up & speak for myself, lest for someone. Naturally, I am really someone who is quite peace-lover, not a peace-maker.

Matt 5:9 says "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God." It did not hit me till about a year back that we are called to make peace & not just to love peace.
