Phoebs Up

Grey`s Anatomy, Prison Break. There`s where i have been getting my fix lately. Its difficult getting stuff here in Japan when they are still airing the last season of friends on their satellite.

Its a good thing that i am having a summer break till Sept, so that i can indulge in my love for all things serials…

I am looking forward to teaching the little kiddies and bible study class though cos i need  my fix of sweetness and wisdom.

Jo is leaving our singapore (read not tai-tai`s ) wives club tomorrow….i shall and will miss her, her and she aloofness that is infectious.

I remember asking her what we should name our group of singapore wives in japan. BaW?- Bankers and Wives ( lots of bankers here) for me DaW? - Diplomat and Wives?  What a laugh. I`ll miss you Jo. Take care and have a blessed trip back. See you really soon.

Today i met D`s new intern, she is want i think an outstanding president scholar would be. Smart, sweet and witty.She is 21. Looking at her i thought "hey i am not that much older.. wait a min i am..i`m like 8years older."

When i was 21, i had been flying for 2 years. Gosh those years seem light years away. Scary and empowering to recall, yet those were the times or height of my life or fitness. I do like my mellowed and mushy self now though. Wisdom and age can grow a person.

And we never cease to learn as we age with grace of cause.

I have a friend that has been talking to me about her problems as  a divorcée  in Japan. At first it seemed easy to just listen, but then i started to think that her behavior was childish and that i am not a mother to her.

Thinking back i know that i had been the self centered one , so i decided that i would continue to encourage her and learn to let go of her sadness and loneliness to the Lord.

Okie I will try to write more and update. Miss my Island! Miss my Home, looking forward to November.

"A gentle answer turns away Wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger.
The tongue of the wise commends knowledge,
but the mouth of the fool gushes folly……

The tongue that brings healing is a tree of life,
but a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit…
A happy heart makes the face cheerful,
but heartache crushes the spirit.

~ Proverbs 15 :1-4, 13"

Wisdom from the wise that i try to follow.;)

Ps+ I`ll try to upload some pics have to adjust the memory space.
