Hi there

This morning has the sun shining itself on me. This day has brought new chances, new opportunities, new hope. I am excited to learn more about this day. I am encouraged that I woke up this morning with joy in my heart. I love this day already. I am excited to know what this day holds for me. Today is the day that the Lord has made. I cannot be sad knowing that my Saviour loves me. 

Church on Sunday truly set me up for the week. I went to my old family church. The old Lutheran church in my area - traditional and yet peaceful. I appreciated the peace I felt in my heart as we sung some classic hymns. I saw memories of my past experiences as a little one racing, playing, learning in Bible school and singing songs. It brought back good memories as I walked into the hall of this great church. It was just how I remembered it to be. Wow! I was proud to step foot into my family church. The smell of the old building and the pastor dressed in white robes, such respect, and candles lit starting the service. I was proud to know that they kept this tradition alive. Kids came to the front for a short message as we all listened. It was a precious moment to know how much Jesus loves the little children as well and how close they are to his heart. 

As an adult, I realize that it is easier to be distracted by issues and problems that present themselves to me in the world, but I am encouraged to be reminded that I am not alone in this. I have my Saviour looking out for me and my family. There is this joy that helps me to survive in this broken world. There is this peace that calms my busy mind and helps me to overcome my greatest obstacles. 

This day has become more beautiful knowing how much I am loved and cared for. 

Hi all viewers

Today I decided to work on myself, which is getting out of bed early, having a small breakfast - egg on toast - and having a 20-minute workout with dumbbells. Woah, it was hectic even for 20 minutes. It is 27C currently. I had to have the fan on full blast with all doors and windows open - hoping the monkeys don't take the golden opportunity to break in and enter. The last time they entered my premises; they stole a bunch of bananas and some bread. They are quick and they love to throw poop everywhere. They are not my favourite animal, but we are in fact in their space after all in nature. 

While I write, I play good oldies such as the 80's or some favourites from the 90's. I got this taste of music from my mom. I would always listen to Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, or classic jazz tunes on the way to the beach with my mom as a kiddo. I would always enjoy a good dip in the river on a hot day. It was like I was a mermaid swimming with the fishes the size of my pinky. I imagine my childhood to be a dazzling one - playing, climbing trees, building sandcastles, board gaming, computer gaming, home-schooling, singing, dancing, and having bubbly baths with rubber duckies and bath toys of all sorts. Those were the good old days back in the 2000's.

I remember my mom telling me that I was special and made for a purpose. That is my plan - to find specifically what that special purpose is in my life, but I imagine that I have already met most of the big changes and experiences in my life that have defined or slightly made my way through my journey towards that great purpose. All I can do now is to keep moving forward learning, working, chilling, reading the Chronicles of Narnia, and opening my mind up to new possibilities. 

I'm also so happy to have made the friends that I have now from acting in theatre to going to home parties. I have few good friends, but that is all I can ever hope for, is to have a few close friends rather than a group of distant and superficial friends who care about status rather than the heart. 

Keep those close to you who care about your heart more than your possessions. 

I've never really had a great time during my schooling life at a private Christian school in the area. It was small and yet I learned a great deal. Though friends were scarce back then, during my early adulthood, I managed to make mature, yet good hearted people to call my friends - and worthy of that title of course. 

My day has started off with a good feeling of hope and accomplishment so far and I hope this day uncovers new possibilities and blessings.
