榴梿英雄

By -
今天从教会温习回到宿舍，Nicholas 早已带来了大学难得一粒榴梿。不管宿舍离我多远，我留下来好好享受那香味绕梁的榴梿。

榴梿早已开了口，不花一点功夫我便把“可怜”的它开了。

～～


老妈常常会拿着菜刀，东转西转着榴梿，花了半天也开不了第一粒榴梿。我跟妹就蹲在哪儿等那黄黄的肉出现。妹早打了几个喷嚏，肉也没看到半个。


这时，老爸会奇迹般出现。小时的印象，爸的背后好像有一片红色的斗篷。我跟妹开心地叫爸！爸！开榴梿！


老爸接过菜刀，看看榴梿，妹会迫不及待地伸手过去，爸会说：“睇手啊！”，再看看榴梿的屁眼。毫不犹豫一刀殴了下去，扭了一扭刀，拿起来，再殴下去！


老妈会忙着拿碗拿碟，我跟妹就蹲在那儿看着英雄般的老爸，用他那粗而有力的胳膊，把榴梿壳给打开了！妹再打了个喷嚏，我还呆在那儿：老爸好厉害！


榴梿啊！


来开多几粒！


老妈会唠叨：“食好好来，整到成地都係，净间又要我抹！”


我和妹幸福得也听不下耳了。只管笑着吃！


“哈秋！哈秋！” “哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈！终于都到爸爸咗！” “两父女一DAM-DAM！”

～～
父亲节快乐！

阿爸天父，
感谢袮赐我这英雄般的老爸。今年父亲节第一次自己在外头，感觉有点伤感。不过袮无处不在，让我感觉到父爱，感谢袮！请袮继续保守我的父亲和母亲，保佑他们一起走过的每一步路，让他们健健康康，好让我有机会有如敬爱袮般敬爱他们。这一切是奉主耶稣得胜的名求，阿门。

If I Had Walked Away

Reflecting my past two and a half years in Li Xin Baptist Church, I can't help but wonder what would happened if I had walked away. It was an easy choice to make, LXBC was at her low point: members leaving the church, some considering to leave, worship team was in a mess, the spirit of worship was nowhere to be found, suspicion among members. I was new in town and working across the bridge. It would have been much easier if I had chosen to attend a church nearer to where I stay and easier for me to practice my faith. Pastor Matthew and Ai Hua at my graduation Yet I stayed. In hindsight, I don't think I made that choice on my own. God placed me here and I somehow had the heart and courage to say: this is where I will stay. While I'm glad I did, but it would have saved me from so much trouble and discomfort. My First Mission to Thailand with LXBC But if I had walked away, I think... 1. I would have missed the opportunity to allow God to mold me in my charact

That Sea Raging in Me

Even as I'm writing this, I am so tempted to pretend everything is alright going on in me. As this may be read by people, a great part of me wants to pretend that everything is going alright. But if I am to be real, I need to stop pretending that I am okay with all that comes crashing on me. I think I've been told so many times that I should keep my anger and pride in check, I begin to believe that I have no right to feel angry. I must put up the kind, compassionate, gentle side of me even when within me, my anger rages. I'm supposed to swallow all the "unloading" people give me. Why does it feel like I am constantly the one who is at fault: that I'm not gentle enough, not respectful enough, not humble enough, not wise enough, not compassionate enough? That I must be gentle, be wise, be respectful, even when I am accused, wronged and misunderstood? Why? Do I have no right to express the first emotion that comes to me? Do I have no right to be hap

November? No, Remember! Part 4

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 5. Project Kwam Wang - Sabaidee, Laos! I don't think I can ever say this enough: Laos is an unforgettable nation, mainly because of the unforgettable journey that God had taken me through. The initial idea was to paint a school building in Vientiane, but imagine our shock when the team saw a building with 2-walled rooms. Instead of complaining, the team quickly came together to lay bricks and cement. 5 days later, we have classrooms with 4 walls and whole school of happy children. The highlight of the trip came later. To catch our flight in Lua Prabang, we took a 6-hour bus ride into Vang Vien, a magical, spectacular heaven-on-earth. The 2-hour tubing experience to enjoy the peace and scenic view of Vang Vien mountain range, the lovely morning breakfast with a morning sunshine and green mountains. It was a great time of serenity and reflection. Then another 6 hours of bus ride across the mountain into Lua Prabang. Tasted on
