Animals stories....

Well in my life animals have been always involved, mostly cats.....my mom loves cats and my sister (judith) was like the mother teresa of the cats, she will pick them up from the street, bath them, feed them and even share her bed with them...... another animal that was often part of my life was cockroachs.....living in an apartment no matter how hard we try to exterminate them , they were always there.... small but powerful!!!
An animal that I was always drawn to was turtles.... I thought they were soo cute and small yet they were slow they hide very well and then later you will find them behind the sofa three times the side you bought them in the pet's store....

Well here in HK I still have these 3 animals in my life....very close to me...they are like my best friends.....

CAT.-smart, has an attitude and love to cuddles with me... She loves my hugs
COCKROACH.- Small yet powerful ....everywhere I go..he is there....
TURTLE.- Still cute and not slow anymore.... ^^ she is cute and easy to be with

Somebody said PANDAS like all this tree animals.....very true.... please don't try to figure out who the animals are: ^^

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...................

Phases of Life...

So here are some pictures from 1995(DTS) on the mountains in Mexico, slept in the train station and back then I looked more like a real missionary...(don't tell Dean I said that ok ^^) my first time in China and I played the guitar and dance in fron of 600 students in a university ...scary ^^......I will post more pictures later. My day??? well eat dim sun in the morning with my friend, have 2 mtgs and then cooked delicious sparragus .....mmm.....today I miss my dad and my yougest sister ^^ it has been raining here almost all day ....typhoon is somewhere around the China sea....sometimes I dont really realized that I am very far away from my country, I usually forget that...........I need vision and pasion for what I'm doing!!!

Tomorrow day off.... kinda of..... and then the beautiful weekend ^^ More later...

BEING LOVING!!!

What is to love God? How can I love God more? ...yeah people tent to give me the spiritual answer
but in reality what does that mean? Sometimes is hard to even love what I see maybe because I see
them it makes it harder to love them
As I was trying to take a nap today God reminded me that LOVE is not an easy thing and it always involves risk....to put ouselves in a vurneable position is not always the easiest nor the simpliest... To LOVE and TRUST you must be humble and sometimes expect nothing in return!!!

This pictures somehow express what it means to love someone for "Faby"

I probably should be sleeping!

The clock says 12:13 AM and I must be crazy to be writing this when I feel like I just had the longest day in my entire life: Teaching in the morning,praying for Hong Kong, Listening to Dean Sherman, talk on the phone like 15 times, explain things to people, design a small brochure, fight with my computer (after I dropped :( ....) , bothered Frank (this one brings me great pleasure ), Eat south african food, made schedules, talk to Angeline every 2 minutes ^^(I think she can't handle to be alone any more...shhtt don't tell her) , went to yuen long, try to buy shoes, drank Mango juice, try a new perfume ( On the hunt of a new fragance....so far this one call "Guess" by "Guess" smells delicious, if you really like me you know what to get me hahaha...) ,try a new shirt.....wow.... what a list uh? tomorrow I am in the kitchen forever....making cesar's salad, baked potatoes and some other gooddies.. any way this week has not been the easiest and many times I feel like I run away to somewhere where nobody knows my name "Faby"....but in the other hand I have had people that have really encouraged me....^^

Here a picture with a good friend from Korea, her name is JOY and Yes! she is a Joy to me.. ^^

Please pray for my laptop is behaving strange ....

More later.....

In His Arms!

Here is my open Heart GOD!

Tomorrow a new day ^^

The western and Asian view..

Talking about different things with different people once again I am aware of the difference between the people I grew up with (westerners) and the people that I am often trying to understand.

In general Westerners are: independent, the value much much higher privacy and individuality, sometimes we think we are better than anyone, we want to teach, we are adventurous, we take initiative, we are direct, we have "rights", we are generous, we have strong concepts about culture, we are very selfcenter, we like to be alone, we need time to process, we don't share our food, etc.....

In general Asians are: oriented to the group, hospitable, generous, privacy is not such a big deal, if something bothers them they tend to keep quiet, they go around the bush, they think about everyone, THEY SHARE!!

Sometimes I feel like I really understand Asians but yet still I have many things to learn, it's funny how westerns often think they know better and they are higher...even though is not often said is often show by our actions........sigh....... today is a good day to look at my life and see in which areas of my western culture or worldview God wants me to change to be more effective in this part of the world, 'cause at the end.......this is their part of the world isn't? (I mean Asians) why do we think we know better????......me dunno! just being reflective and I guess convicted!

Me trying to be "Sweet" hehehe

I am actually sleepy and it's only 10:44.....mmmmmm I think I am tired... I am never this sleepy at this time.....do you feel like time just goes by and you don't even noticed it??? Yeah it's like I remember when I was 10 and just to have little fishies in a juice bottle in my room, now I am 30 and yet still have fishies... any way it's funny how time goes by and sometimes you don't even noticed.........

I want to walk to the beach and watch the waves crash in the deep blue ocean... missing someone I shouldn't be missing.....ahhh :(

More to come...

indulging!

My Niece... we look alike uh?..... me at Tuen Mun Theater presenting our Production last year, and after final play....we all look exhausted uh?.... well the day went better than what I thought but I am tired....went to eat pizza...I haven't eatting pizza in ages so broke the diet and indulge myself with "super supreme" and some chocolates I found in the officee, hehehe I should have gone for a run today but I didn't.......I am a bad girl! ^^ any way tomorrow another day not as crazy but yes full of meetings any way.....still raining in this part of the world.... I heard some areas in Korea they have been out of phones and internet...really a bummer!
Any way I am off to sleep...I have to lead worship tomorrow...

A new week...

The weekend has flown by and again it's almost Monday.....sigh... sometimes I just wish the weekend could be a bit longer...hehehe.....many thing to think about.....numbers, work duties, ..........food....Arts.....Tsim Tsau Tsui....chinese food........people saying stupid things Mexico...........Jeju.....phones not workings.....scheduling... guidelines....kitchen.....I need a nap.... need to clean my room.....I need to run...... my good friend has been married for 24 hrs....... staff meeting.....Vision..... and lastly but not least Marriage and kids.... I have been pondering about this 2 topics in the back of my head... any way it was nice to only have to do lunch clean up, book reports and journal... What a life hey!?

By the way....for those of you that know of political issues...please don't believe that the guy that "won" the elections in Mexico really did "win" ...... can't believe that "The Washington post" & the "Washington times" have declared that the elections in Mexico were clean and correct... and encourage the "bad guy".. the leftist .... AMLO to keep the peace of Mexico..... WHAT?!?...... for peace they should change the immigration law and maybe their president.... they are the ones that are in "War" not us...........maybe someone needs to teach them comun sense and Mathematics..... no ofense to anyone.... but please.... give me a break..... politics??? I better not post on this issue eh!? I am not mad I am just giving my opinion....feel free to give yours!

Hopefully more later...

Wonderful picture in Jeju....English Small group.. ^^

My heart Jumping!!

I feel like my heart is jumping!!....... wink.....I must continue to trust God for the things that are the most hard to trust Him even when I feel like my heart jumps!

Encouragement is such a powerful thing and the power of our words is truly a weapon whether is for good or evil... I have been meditating on that..... I really want to encourage people and use my tonge to bring blessing to others!

Any way it rained most of the day here.... worked with Becca 'till late and running around the city tracking some boxes, sweatting like crazy, eatting cheap noddles with Angeline and laughing at a good email I got today.... that's how my day looked like today... tomorrow.... Crazy day with teams, Soyoung arriving, Staff dinner out and I am already tired to even think about it!!

It looks like we will be having the same political party winning over the president in Mexico......which kinda of stinks but Oh well....what to do!?

Ohh yeah the picture??? that's me when my life was not this complicated it!!! see even when I was little I opened my mouth when I dance...hehehehe
