Been feeling "yeesh" for quite a while. The last 3 Sunday sermons were really good at SFX, really like Fr Bosco and yesterday we had Fr Eugene Vaz himself. Wow!
So I will take their advice and focus on the good things I have, to be grateful for the blessings I have been given.
In no special order
- family. Being back and with family I can appear before in 10mins for dinner is really nice. Matty is a bonus. Cousins gave me some recycled clothes last night. I love family - especially when you stand to gain.
- sports. Was a little deprived in Taiwan. Now I have so much sporting events, it's throwing my life out of control. I recall sitting at a weekday mass and thinking to myself to have to tone down a little. I love all the opportunities I have, but just need to regain a little more control. The more important part is having hard-core friends. Friends equally crazy, possibly more!
- church. I miss aspects like reading at mass & Fr Cary's fantastic sermons in Taipei. But today I have my old ministry which forces me to sit and talk/think/dwell on my faith once a week, there's daily masses I can attend within easy access, multiple Sunday masses to attend giving me huge flexibility.
- job. When I was without, it was really awkward. Now, while it's not the perfect role, the company is pretty ok and I love that I am 10mins drive away from Ian's house - so I can tabao lunch over and play with Matty for a while.
- Singapore. There was a time I didn't care whether I lived in the country or not. Now I have to admit this place is pretty darn liveable, except for the weather and possibly too many foreigners. On the cusp of national day, I must say this, Majulah Singapura!
