Rotten Fruit

I pray that the worry you had from last night has already fallen to the ground like a fruit broken down into a nutrient nurturing a better positive thought.

xx, Belle.

I Won A Round Trip Ticket to Philippines

Image
Then Covid happened... In August 2019, I got a call from a Sydney land line number while at work. I took it 'cause we have office in Sydney, and thought maybe it's someone from work. Turned out, it's someone from Forex Cargo . It's a freight forwarding service that I have used to send my first ever balik bayan box to PH. The person on the other line told me I won the major prize on their promo. I'm like a deer in the headlights cause I never joined any contests recently (though I do have good track record - read here ). The prize? A two round-trip ticket to the PH from Forex Cargo How did I win this? By sending a balik-bayan box to PH. Again, I did not even know they have a contest at that time, I just genuinely required their service... and won! This was the email I got:   Hi [Full Name Redacted], Congratulations, you’ve won the GRAND PRIZE on our Forex De Mayo 2019 Raffle Draw Promo. As the winner, you are entitled to Two (2) return flights (flying Philippine Airl

Work From Home (Extended Edition)

Image
Our work from home set-up at work has been extended once again. We started working from March-2020, so it is going almost two years now. Though we've been back to office in some form in between, WFH seems like a permanent fixture in most of office life now. I actually started working from home even before Covid. After my maternity leave, I went back to work full time in 2018 but I requested if I can do the WFH set-up twice a week which my manager at that time agreed upon. I am really thankful about that, but it does came with challenges (as we now all know as we are all doing the same set-up). However, at that time I have an additional layer of challenge, I actually got anxious thinking people might say I was not working when at home (lol) which I can say hand on my heart is not true, even so I can say I work even more when at home.  By the way, in the period pre-Covid that I've been doing work at home, never have I ever received any feedback from my manager about me not workin

Thoughts About Puzzle

Image
My son went thru a phase of being really into puzzle (not so much now). But when I say into, I meant he really likes doing it over and over again. As soon as he finishes completing his favourite set, he will undo it and start over again. He prefers me to sit down next to him though as he do it.  One time, as I watch him do the same puzzle for the nth time, a comparison to the puzzle occurred to me. I realised, it’s like our life with God. Our life with God is complete. In Jeremiah 1:5, God said “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you…” and He continued in the same book in chapter 29 verse 11, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”. He knows the big picture, but the tricky part is that we don’t. We would try to build our puzzle - some has set plans in doing it, some just go with the flow putting the pieces they grab wherever they see fit, or wherever it is convenient at that time. So
