God's mercy and protection!!!

Today is the 3rd day after the car accident I had. It happen on 12.01.2008. It's my first accident since I got my driving licence. I was woken up by the sound and images (memory) of the moment the car behind hit us. It was so sudden. Oh well, come to think of it, it's also quite severe....

Some of you do know that I am fine with sudden incidents happen to me and I only 'react' to it few days later... and therefore, yes... I only having that 'shock and sudden' moment reflected to me and my emotions since this morning.

However, of all things happen, I really wanna thank God that none of us in the car is injured (physically) and the car thought was badly damaged, is still in the 'repairable' state. Oh oh.. by the way.. just in case you are worry about 'little blue'. It's NOT little blue that's hurt... and to be honest, if it is little blue... I am quite sure my friends and I are in hospital now.... So, yes... Thank God for His protection!!!

Speechless....

Suddenly... my brain is blank... for a few days... not knowing what to write, what to think, how to react on things around me. Was busy for the past few days marking test papers, sorting out notes, sorting out the files which need to be handle back to the Admin. Office at my college. Was told yesterday that I need to submit the students' coursework mark to the office by this Saturday and that I also need to do marking for their papers after their final exam next week. I am finishing with teaching after this week so to say... and I am not sure if there's anymore teaching to do in future...

Things happen, things ended... I couldn't remember how it happen... I just remember I received a phone call from the principle of the college asking me a favour to teach their students for a semester and that's how I end up teaching them for a semester. Was shocked by their attitudes towards their study on the first month... Couldn't believe there's such students at this stage...

Thought this teaching thing would be an extra income to me but it ended up to be my sole income for the past 2 months.

I am speechless on how things can happen and ended up with... it's beyond my understanding and control. However, God has planned things ahead of me... when it seems there's no way .... He has prepared a way for me... way.. months, years... before I know or come about it... Isn't that amazing?

I guess the only thing I need to do now is to trust and obey... agree?

Not my day?

It's a situation a friend encounter today that makes me think when was the last time I had a bad day. Oh well, ... as you know, I always encounter a bad day once every forth night. haha.... and therefore, I am kind of get used to it. Well, don't get me wrong. I am not saying I don't feel bad when it comes my way. I am just saying, when days like that came around, I just have to remind myself that it's just this other day, nothing that I can control, nothing that I can do to change it and at the same time, it will not last for long.

When was the last time I had a really bad day? One of this year while I was having my CLP exam, I think. From the first day it started, I fell sick and thereafter, I couldn't even sleep almost EVERY SINGLE MOMENT, and during the exam, there's this bomb scares and after the exam, I stepped on a fresh dog shit, etc. That wasn't really a bad DAY in fact... came to think of it, it was more than that... more than 24 hours... goodness...it last about a month in fact and I remember at the end of the exam, I was quite sure that I won't get through it. Bad year follows after that... with so many things happen, etc. etc. (Don't ask me what happen. some of you still remember donating maggie and bread to me).

A friend reminded me few days ago that people need one or two of those days to grow up so that they are able to handle different situations and it is so happen that, me (I know my God loves me more than anyone else), just happen to be selected specially to handle all situations (encounter more bad days then anyone else) so that I can understand situation that people around me facing. What do I mean? Give you an example. It's weird that my grandmother, my father than I suffer no headache ever. So, in a way, I don't really know what exactly is headache. Due to that, I have very limited understanding of what headache is. So, when someone tells me that he/she is having headache, seriously, I have no idea how to help and what to do about it. If only those who suffer headache before will understand how to deal with it. Headache is not very good. It's bad to have headache, but we can't really say, it's bad because with it, you would be able to understand other's situation. So, bad days sometimes just let us grow a little big wiser.

So, bad day is really not that bad after all... yes?
