In this year there are many things that have happened to me. Many things were too hard for me to bear on my own. Many things allowed me to know myself even more. I felt overwhelmed by the happenings and the events of this entire year. The doors that were opened to me somehow seems to bring me joy and burdens at the same time. It gave me unnecessary stress about work, losing the passion I once had for certain things.

I've injured my leg which caused me physical, mental, emotional and possibly spiritual pain. If I didn't injure my leg alot of bad things wouldn't have happened.

And so, with all these thought in my mind I went for my Genting trip with Basil, Ching Ee and Pei Yi.

Throughout this entire trip I felt the grace that God has placed in my life. I know for sure, if it's based on my own strengths and abilities I wouldn't have made it this far with everything on my mind. I thank God, for strength, for wonderful friends, for timely breaks and finacial blessings.

Let's start with the beginning of the trip. We booked for an economy class coach, we got a PREMIUM CLASS COACH complete with movies and games to entertain us. My mum gave me extra like 100RM for no apparent reason. Basil changed an extra 150 SGD for me. Talk about finacial blessing for a timely break!

During this entire trip I felt I've grown closer to Pei Yi. Someone whom I never thought I could and would feel close to. I also thank God for Basil my best friend and Ching Ee one of my closest friend. We had a lot of fun despite the screw ups in our plans on day 1 and 2.

As the trip came to an end I started to reflect on this entire year. I thank God, really for his grace and mercy. I thank God, for giving me wonderful friends; friends who stick with me through thick and thin, friends who despite my weakness and flaws constantly cheering me up, friends who bothers to see through and get through the layers to know who I really am. I thank God that despite my pride He didn't let me fall, He still gave me a reason to hold on, a reason to stay, a reason to keep on fighting this fight of faith.

That everytime things seems too bad for me to handle, He allows certain breaks in between for me to rest and break away and off from all my issues.

And that, despite all these happenings, I have still been blessed with good opportunities for my future, finacial blessings and wonderful friends.

True enough that bad things have happen. But, bad things do happen to good people. What matters is that we make the bad things become an asset to us in the future.

God is good!
