Things I am Thankful for in 2008

I started of with an extremely memorable New Year. On the first day of the year my 103y.o. grannie felt sick and was in and out of the hospital. Subsequently she was called home by the Lord on 26 January. I thank God for the full life that she had lived. She was such a humble person and I have so much to learn from her.


There are so many things I am thankful for in 2008.


1. God – I am still a child of God and He is still real to me. I am still alive.


2. Family – No one has a perfect family and neither do I. But I still thank God for being part of my family unit.


3. Work – This year marks the 10th year I had been with the company and I am glad that I still find my job a challenge.


4. Friends – For all my friends who have been standing by me through thick and thin; to meet up or in contact through emails with long lost friends; and for newly acquired friends.


5. Relatives – To meet up again with many of them at the beginning of the year.


6. Leisure


a. Holiday – to be able to go to Kuala Lumpur twice this year during Good Friday/Easter and Christmas periods for a short and relaxing trip with heaps of shopping and good food thrown in. And a big thank you to my great host.


b. Music – to be able to listen to The UK South Norfolk Youth Symphonic Band and The Kian Kok Middle School Concert Band.


c. Blog – to be able to continue blogging as a form of release for me and for your continuous support in reading it.


d. Facebook – to be able to meet up with new friends, old friends and not so old friends and esp. my most favourite high school teacher.


A Blessed New Year 2009 to everyone! Once again like last year, I like to emphasise to you to spend more time with God, it is worth doing it more than anything else in this world…
