Counting down

In a few hours, we will be at the Abu Dhabi airport. The morning went by in a whirl. Kenji picked up a baseball glove and refused to let it go; we said our "hi"s and "bye"s to Omar, and then dropped him at Falcon Hospital. This cycle repeats itself once every few months, and Kenji's boarding records are very thick now. I joked with the Indian man that he needs a new file for Kenji.


Wonderful memory of Kenji this week - that strong, pirouetted bod!!


And a lovely super impromptu check-in with Omar and Amanda. :))

A little melancholic that we've left Kenji there, but that gave way to some jjampong and jajangmyeon. It is my first time eating the jajangmyeon and it tastes nice! :) Haha, it must have been the Korean episodes I have been watching. I finally finished "Save Me", and man, this cultish beliefs, the extremism, sanity-insanity, what's right and what's wrong - made me think a little. I recall the "Veronika decides to die" book. How do you know what's sane and what's not, and who's to decide what is and not? But beyond all these, it's also about the nature of cults. Why do people follow and how do we form and shape certain beliefs and thinkings?
I finally finished watching the show, and with some heart-thumping moments.


And jajangmyeon was quite nice, followed by a short coffee break at papa roti and last minute date-shopping.

This trip back, I will get to meet Baby Rena, spend time with mum, and the going into office and have f2f discussions and meeting up with loved ones and good friends make me happy. It's like I am still so zen about the travelling, and tomorrow, it will be "hello Singapore" for the next 1 month.

I shall continue to stand upon the word for my life this year, to "live well". The below verses packed a whole punch, and PK just preached about how we can live in freedom in the fruit of the Spirit - love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. It is easy to read this, but difficult to live it out. That's why... I need to continue to mature in my walk with Him. :)
