Our 1st Catchup dinner in 2008

Call it occupational hazard or 'trying to be difficult', even during my catch up dinner with you last night, I could not help but ask these leading questions:

* How do you think you have grown in the past year?

* What do you hope to work on in your personal life that will make this year better than the last?

The truth is, i wasn't trying to be difficult. I believe in the power of speaking out your growth journey and personal goals. It is always different when we hear our own selves articulate these, especially the affirmation of our growth.

Were you gals encouraged to hear from one another and yourself? =)

I guess the best answer that i had gotten to my first question above was: moustache. (Guess who?)

So here i was trying to 'poke' into your lives though our official life coaching journey ended more than a year back. But it definitely paid off to be meddlesome in this case. My heart leapt with unspeakable joy as i heard each of you share, especially when some of you expressed that you had overcome certain issues that i remembered from our coaching journey!

Life may not always be favourable to our side, but it is the attitude that we choose that determines our joy or lack of joy in life - we can either sulk our way through, blaming others and ourselves, or know that through even storms, there can be a Rock which we can stand securely upon and not a wave can hit us.

Shereen and Asyiqin, you were missed!

Thanks Ber again for organising this! =)

Here we are at Macs again!

Did you all realise that in the poll on the right, NOBODY chose Macs? Haha well tonight we ended up in Macs TWICE - dinner before the movie and catchup time after the movie. haha...

( mainly to tell them how much we love and care for one another )

Especially to Yati and Amy ~~~ We want to wish you all the best in your coming Os ***

+++++++

Tonight's movie left me in a mode of much gratitude in my heart towards the Big Guy up there. His ways are truly always higher and better; and everything He does is truly out of His love for us. =)

I thought the phrase coined in the movie 'A little Random act of Kindness (ARK)' was brilliant too. Just now i began to reflect on how each of you has blessed my life in little yet greatly significant ways.

The ARK each of you has blessed me with:

*Yati - readily offering to carry the things on my hands for me!
*Belinda - a trustworthy and sincere support in the things i do!
*Asyiqin - such a humble and teachable girl who is so willing to receive advice and counsel
*Shereen - art is your gift! Always so touched by the things you make
*Elizabeth - your sweet smiles make me feel so welcome each time!
*Amy - your words have been kind and encouraging to me
*Ronghui - always adore your cuddles and notes of love!
*Ainiah - though you are usually blur, you have brought much joy to the group!

So glad to have all of you! =)

luv,
mirabel

Celebrating Belinda and Lilian!

Happy Birthday Lilian and Belinda!! You are God's workmanship, truly worth celebrating. On the day that God formed you in your mothers' wombs, I cannot imagine how delighted God was, looking at even your unformed bodies, simply imagining your beauty and forms in His mind.

(dated 23 Mar 2007)

Last night i met up with my LCs (life coachees), and i gave myself a challenge.

I wanted to capture the beauty of the smiles on every of their faces.

I think i did quite a good job. *winks*

To my wonderful LCs and best coach intern Belinda,

I was not surprised that, when i asked one word from each of you to describe how you feel about your upcoming stage of life - enrolling into polytechnics, taking the O'levels, graduating from polytechnic, most of you said 'fearful' and 'worried'. It is understandable.

Nonetheless i want to bless you with courage. Courage to brave up, and move forward, knowing that the future is there for you to behold. You may face successes and failures altogether, but remember, failures too are excellent opportunities for us to learn and grow out of, and into our potentials.

If you never give up, nobody can ever make you give up, on pursuing your dreams.

I am excited for each and every of you! =) Having walked through you gals for almost two years (Belinda, 4 years?), I have seen each of you grow, and i know that you gals really have what it takes to shine, more and more.

Let me say this again, thank you gals for allowing me into your lives! =) *huggies*
