Rest in your unforced rhythm of rest
I reallie like this article on telling us how to REST and be silent for a moment in our day. We are always so caught up with the mundane and endless tasks work which we have to do that we never have time to pause and listen to our heart or more importantly for me to have a conversation with the lord.
Well, i get to do that ever since i am here. I guess i am not working now. Have pretty much time to myself to reflect and read god's word which is a pleasure. i enjoy the peace, the sensation of connecting to the spiritual father, the feeling of not being able to rush and definitely the inner reflection of my life principles and priorities. I thank god for this time and believe with all my heart that he is preparing me for a greater works in the time to come. meanwhile, patience for me and the R family ......

Barnes and Nobles
I love this place.i can spend my whole afternoon in this heavenly place which has all genres of books that kept my braincells activated the whole day. i say you ask for it and they have it.Ranging, from war,history,astronomy,home furnishing,pets, fiction,non-fiction,pyschology,religion,gardening, music, art, entertainment....whole lots of collection for you to explore and to indulge yourself in that pitless world of knowledge.I love to learn and constantly keep myself intellectually stimulated. I wish i find this place earlier and i will not spend some days idling ard and lamenting.Is my new hangout .with a cuppa in one hand and a favourite magazine or book on the other, somebody has to keep the time for me.
Ernesto
Is so chilly. I haven smell the rain for quite a while. A good break from the summer sun but yet scary.The wind is howling and the sky is grey and dull all day . People stayed in and is souless on the street. Somehow , it seemed like the devil is here. Nobody dares to move and you can sense that tension in the air. Ernesto is here.The tropical thunderstorm has hit the Carolinas. Hopefully not another Katrina which swirled and killed tons. I stayed at home, praying it will subside, so that i can prance around the golf course during the weekends once again.

Weekend sum up
This weekend was very fun and fulfilling. I learn that we have to step out and get to know people and constantly engaged ourselves in activities .If we constantly stayed at home,We can get quite down at times ,don't we? SO i thank god for all these wonderful mini discoveries we made.
Thursday:
Felt accomplished finishing my book on "Challenges dealing with difficult children in early childhood enviroment"At least, i felt updated despite not working now.Ron made my day by buying FLOWERSSSSSSSSSSSSS for me.Very thrilled coz i just mentioned to him that he has been getting less romantic recently.Anyway ,i am very amused that he bought Chrysanthemum despite knowing my favourite flowers.took a picture of the flowers and those he bought for me last year when i am here. The roses still look lovely. Chrysanthemum looked just like those found on the altars.
ANyway, another thing to be thrilled was i bought a book on" A tale of two city".trying to know more on London and French revolution now since we are heading to the cities.
Friday:
Went out to have Mexican food with Kelvin,his brother from NYC and Miruim and Jesse from Eucardo.Still feel a bit edgy about meeting people but tries to make conversation despite that and it turns out Jesse is a very funny man and Mirium has very nice disposition.
Saturday,
Very happy. I am in high spirits whole day. mainly, i finally try golfing.Took my first lesson from Ron in the driving range.It was terribly hot but i enjoyed the game. It required lots of focus and yet you cannot be too rigid about it.Simply relaxed and made the swing. Ron said I was pretty good for the first time.Yeah!!!Because i hit most of the balls .I observed and try to learn the techniques.I think when i am back from London ,i will take up professional lessons.
Guess what, came back and rest. At about 5pm, we hit off to the golf course with kelvin and gang.Gosh, this excites me even more. I reallie love walking at the golf course coz is so peaceful. And golf in way is a very individual game.You have full control of very stroke you make
Sunday:
Attended a BBQ held by the Christian Business Fellowship In Fuqua.Signed up myself in the weekly woman's bible study group. I am very thrilled to be in fellowship with them and there i made a korean fren who was a first year.And i gave so much advice to her regarding my stay so far.i never thought i can be an encouragement to others since i am trying to adjust myself to a new enviroment now.Thank god for using me .

The R's family verse
Psalms 127:1, “Unless the LORD builds a house, the work of the builders is useless. Unless the LORD protects a city, guarding it with sentries will do no good.” (NIV)
Is all about god and not us in whatever we do.I chose a special scripture that becames a family verse for the R's Loft and it shall be nicely engraved on a plaque in the future. Meanwhile it will be neatly written on a decorative paper ,pasted on one of the mirrors in the bathroom.
“Blessed is the [family] who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers. But [their] delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law [they] meditate day and night. [Each] is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever [they] do prospers.” (Psalm 1:1:3)
