After years of travelling, I have learnt that I prefer to capture the moment with my eyes other than through the lens of a camera. I found out that I am able to enjoy the moment more. When I spend a lot of time trying to take the best photos, I often feel that I don't experience the fullness of the moment.
well, if I have a lot of time at that place, mAybe I can starting taking photos after enjoying those moments for a few days. That way, I can capture both the moment in my mind and on print. :)
I guess it's the same with life. Sometimes, we spend so much time planning, envisioning and choreographing our lives that we fail to enjoy the spontateous moments. I reckon that while I will do a bit of planning, I should not think too much and just enjoy the day to day moments.

I am back after a one month hiatus!
KL was sweet. God was good. He taught me a very precious lesson. When we avail ourselves, He will provide.
I have seen how we had not expected even the 12 boxes of clothes and books from A and when we did, we thought we were just bringing the kids those donated clothes and a bit of fun in terms of a Sports Carnival. Before A told me that A had some funds for a christmas party, the SH actually receieved an email suggesting that we could provide food for the kids too. We had not intended for that but an additional SGD 35was a blessing. They were so happy eating the pizza and KFC we ordered for them.
While we were there, the people working for the kids told us that they were so thankful we brought the christmas party to the kids because unlike the other years, no one offered to this year :). After the event, we went for lunch and found 50 RM on the seat at Nandos which covered for almost our whole meal. Also, when we were looking for whistles, they miraculously appeared before us at the store. Just 1 packet. Out of nowhere. YM donated some plush toys keychains (new ones), we counted 78 pieces. We were expecting 100 kids so we thought of using them as prizes instead of gifts. However, we counted 74 kids so we thought of giving them out to everyone of them for participating in the games. The 78 pieces were ALL given out. No short, no more. I think a few kids might have just come in the duration of the game. Amazing isn't it? :) And it was a great challenge driving in KL city, our first time driving to Malaysia and we were kept safe throughout! :)
Thank God for His grace, providence and protection! :)
