It is 12:05 and nothing can drown the noise of New Year celebration on this side of the world. Although people are now almost burning their money with firecrackers and fireworks, they bought, scraping yet another hole in the ozone layer (Correct me if I’m wrong, Al Gore), I try to pass that mutation of the year, with best wishes for 2008. This year, I wish for more (in no particular order):
* Kinds of chocolates to try for the first time
* Frequent bursts of inspiration to fix my room, and less distraction, it
* New (or less rusty) bus to run on my way to work
* The time with friends, old times and new facts
* The potential benefit of my family live here and abroad
* To acquire the skills or not related to my work
* Courage to take risks and greater confidence in God
* Books that challenge my mind, go in my heart, make me act
* The income that will excite my taste
* To watch movies that make me think about life and a world not my own
* The wisdom of doing what is right and avoid what is wrong
* Some travel from near and far from the places that make me sigh and appreciate God’s creation
* Determination to go for regular exercise machine
* Walks and discussions are in no hurry
* Appetite to eat vegetables ( "Beng, it is good for you!")
* Liaison moments with my students in Sunday school College
* The love in my heart for people
* Spontaneity to try new things!
* Thai food places to discover
* Songs to sing and listen
* The challenges that make me realize how much I can not survive the life of my own
* Intimate relationship with God
I could continue, but for now, this list will be sufficient. So what’s on your wish list for?
Happy New Year to all! May your heart be filled with hope that in and by the abundance of God’s grace.
