Something I have never done before......

..... is to cancel a dinner with Geo. I had to work.

A week ago, I told Geo that actually, I do have sub-points (above my core point) when I prayed for a partner last time. Not that I prayed consistently but I did tell God that above my core point, is it ok to give me a partner who is NOT working in the same line as me so that we will have more topics to talk about.

Recently, a social worker confided in me that she nearly broke up with her boyfriend because of her work. For her, she does shift so weekends are taken up. Her boyfriend works regular hours on weekdays and sometimes, because of her work, they hardly get to meet up. She shared how difficult it is to have her boyfriend understand her line of work.

Although I know that Geo was a little 'sian' that we are unable to meet, I also know that he will understand the need for me to work today, for the fact that we are in the same line, same ever busy and ever revolving organisation. Haa! I believe that God knows my portion. That said, I also do not want to take the understanding for granted. Better to treasure than to lose. Thanks dear... :)
