Last Wednesday, I joined Vincent, Kay Yean and Cindy for their care group…

What is care group?

Well, all three of them are Christian and they will have a night out to sing song, play games, extract knowledge from Bible, and some other activity. I had only joined once, thus, I’m not so sure what else they will do. Basically, it is a meet up, hangs out together, share problems and worth ships their god, Jesus.

The topic last week was to get to know our inner potential. We have to act out the potential on the person sitting beside us. Well, I found out, some of them are really observant. For example, Cindy, she could ‘act’ out my personalities. While Vincent, surely, don’t know what’s my potential… haha… there is this Jonathan, who act out my other side of myself, the side which says that, I like to eat… This isn’t wrong at all… I enjoy eating, especially all the good foods, but lately, eating becomes a chore rather than leisure.

Let’s go back to the inner potential. We were happily chatting the achievement we had achieved in our younger days. That kept me thinking, I had made some achievement out of myself. The achievement I made is not sky high achievement or something to boost around but, that’s my life. That’s what I had learnt all this year. That is my memory. That is the days that I don’t have to worry about myself, I don’t have to worry about food, clothing and all those things that I have to take care of by myself nowadays… Come to think of it all my achievement is related to language. I got prize for ‘Everyday a word’, ‘story telling’, ‘essay writing’, ‘drama’, ‘spelling bee’, ‘treasure hunt’, ‘Nilam’, ‘running’, ‘public speaking’ and so much more… those are experience that I shall treasure. Those are experiences that make me prepare to handle what I’m handling now.

I was chatting with Vincent previously, he was saying that since I don’t treasure my ‘potential’ and don’t practice it, he shall have it and he will keep on using, and basically that means, I can’t ask him back for my potential. ^^

That was just a joke.

Oh, this potential I was saying is actually my potential of being brave. It is stated in the Bible that, if we don’t use the potential that god had given to us, we will either only have that potential only, or we might even lost the potential due to inexperience. On the other hand, when we uses our potential given by god, we might ended up with more potential, as when we practice the potential we had, we might learn more. ^^

What a good theory behind the story. ^^

I did join those new friends I just got to know for dinner yesterday, but, well, I leave the story for next time. Till then, chau~
