Refreshed, Strengthened and Rejuvenated

Monte and I made several trips to Tioman. We never get tired of that wonderful island. The crystal clear water, the multicoloured fishes and exotic sea creatures are just some of the highlights of the beautiful island. In one of our trips there, we happened to stay very close to the beach. It was absolutely amazing when we were lured to sleep by the sound of the beautiful waves.


We have discovered that having intermittent breaks and holidays is beneficial. Last month, we made a trip to Penang with my mother. We are scheduled for a short break in Batam end of this year. Our holidays are times of rest and also time to get away from the hustle and bustle of life to do some reflection and evaluation of things that have transpired in our life. We come away refreshed, strengthened and rejuvenated. As the Chinese saying goes "Xiu Xi Shi Yao Zou Geng Chang De Lu", which means that we need to rest so that we can cover the long road ahead of us.


God is good. We were blessed with trips that fell into our laps on different occasions. They are mostly blessings from our families. He has blessed us above and beyond what our minds and hearts could ever imagine and for that our hearts well up in thanksgiving for His goodness.
