My second-half Life

"Looking for simple but spiritually fruitful life. Striving for God's destiny and plan on ME." is always my motto. From time to time, my inner voice will speak out.

The following web-site strikes me and want to share with my Power-Puff girls to think a step beyond bothering ourselves with our career and our family. What else should we pursue beyond?

Last Sunday, Pandora invited me to organise a Book-worm Club for our regional K5 children who like reading or organize a workshop to promote their writing interests partly to reinforce their peer group in Church. And partly to evangelize their schoolmates..... I am eager to step up to use my writing and editing skills and love in reading, along with my passion for the involvement in the next generation in church.

Thriving: Getting Started on Growth Goals
• Focus on an area of passion or interest. Grow in something you like. (to write and to read and to learn with an open heart)
• Work on small steps and specific milestones rather than huge growth goals. You can always add to your growth goals as you achieve your milestones.(to write 3 morning-pages daily to drill up my patience and preseverance.)
• Don't focus on too many areas of your life at once. Growth is a process. (reserve our time-off and serve God with a smiling heart)
• Find someone who shares your interest so you can participate in growth together. (this Book-Fan Club is a igniting idea to me)
• Consider choosing an area of growth that is not related to your role as a mom. (to out-reach other working professionals and being a BTL)
• Look for free or inexpensive resources. Public libraries, community colleges and local service agencies may have free or inexpensive resources to get you started. (my weekly schedule-HKCL is my second office.)
• Start learning about an area of interest and use that knowledge as a springboard for growth. (Colour therapy)
• Be open-minded in your pursuit of thriving. Your passions may change over time. Your interest in politics may have changed from local issues to global ones or visa versa.
