Hello there.. =) I like checking in here nowadays.. I know I have friends who are more than happy to hear my thoughts on anything under the sun and that's just humbling sometimes. =) Why? Cos I don't deserve to be accepted unconditionally, or believed so credibly on the things I have to say. To my fellow 'kuku', here's my version of humility. When you receive something that you feel you don't deserve, especially in spite of all the flaws you have, that humbles a person. To know that you're not 'there' yet and have much to learn is also humbling, but it comes with a daunting feeling. 

You know what, I used to hide alot of what I did because I had great fear of being punished/judged/misunderstood. Now, I'm so thankful that is not the way I have to be anymore, and the way to go is accountability, because honesty is the best policy. =) 

My mom has been amazingly involved in the japanese fellowship I'm in recently. It's so beautiful how my mom gets a window to the kind of life I'm leading in such a manner, where she doesn't just see on the surface what I do, but also the way I do relationships with others and that's a real blessing. I feel more understood, and in a better position to explain why I do what I do because it's backed up by what she sees for herself as well. And recently she's become an ally to tackle some problems that we both discuss and agree is happening in the lives of others. I'm thankful for this kind of a partnership, because it's nothing short of a miracle, and undeniable evidence that God really does have a hand in this, and that his plans for us are beyond our wildest imagination.
