Basketball Session


I went to play basketball last Sunday with my church brothers. This activity is so special that it made me felt out of my routine life. It was quite a long time since my last exercise. Tell you what, I was only be able to sustain for 10 minutes. Two of my church brothers who are elder than me is still playing full of energy. My muscle still feeling pain until now after 2 days. Come to think of my performance, I have 0 point, 0 steal, 0 block and may be 3 rebounds for the whole activity. I must play better next time.

Performance aside, it is good to interact with human being after long period of regular computing. People is very supportive though I was not doing well. I found one of my weakness is I do not actually mind of win or loss. I think I must improve on this.

One of the brother kindly and sincerely asked me to join the kid game. I tried to take that as a joke but I seriously felt that he was sincere. Too bad. One of my teammate refuse to change team though we loss. I appreciate his faith and trust on me, I should had done better. Am I still writing on performance?

Anyway, I enjoyed the session and hope to built up the fellowship regardless my busy and tiring city life.

(Proverbs 18:24) A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend that sticks closer than a brother.

I read this, “Instead of wishing you could find a true friend, seek to become one.”

Worrying Mind


I have been working and worrying too much lately. Draining all my energy into work. I have been working from 8:00am - 9:00pm everyday last 2 weeks. I feel exhausted and need a break.

Thank God that today is the Sabbath day he prepared, I am able to relax myself to check email and blogging here.

Lately, I received negative review from my superior. So I try harder to do my work but it seem like I am burning myself and my work is still no good. One voice telling me to be more responsible in work; another voice ask me to take a break. I am confused. I think I need some time to think about it. Burn out is no fun. Anyway, I think I must be responsible for work and responsible to take care of myself to avoid burn out as well. It is all about balance. Let see what interesting will happen to me. Life is unexpectable. Let me try to forget yesterday, ignore tomorrow and focus on today. May be it will help.
