2019…

Yes, you’ve read it right, I’m writing about the year that was… I couldn’t help but reminisce the recent year when we all lived a normal life, a life that we got so accustomed to that we sometimes, unknowingly, take for granted, a life that we thought so ordinary, thought that we could always take…

40, surprise me! :)

I used to be a planner, but through the years, I’ve become less of it and have found the beauty and joy in not planning too much and just going with the flow. For special occasions, my parents and I, we usually just eat out, have coffee afterwards, and that’s it. I’m not a party…

God’s will + God’s perfect timing = God’s best

More than 4 years ago, after 10 attempts to get a promotion in a span of around 2 years, I finally got it in March 2015. That’s when I met Chris Stephens, the General Counsel (GC) of ADB, since December 2012. In all those unsuccessful applications, I didn’t feel discouraged because I know from experience…

Slowly but surely..

In 2005, I joined ADB. Hazel was assigned as my mentor. Since then she’s been praying to be given the opportunity to share the gospel with me. It took 6 long years for her prayer to be answered. I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord & Saviour on 14 June 2011. Thank & praise you,…

My Georgia Travelogue :) (Part 3)

Since early this year, I was thinking of travelling solo, atleast once in my life. I will be turning 40 this year, so I wanted to do it and push myself out of my comfort zone by travelling without a family member or a friend with me. I couldn’t decide which would be the perfect…

My Georgia travelogue :) (Part 2)

In the morning of 29 May, my boss and I, together with our co-hosting partners from EBRD went to our office in Tbilisi which we call “Georgia Resident Mission” (GRM) to meet and finalize the remaining arrangements. Our GRM colleagues have helped us tremendously in dealing with the hotel where the meetings would be held,…

My Title: A child of God

I am forever grateful to have met and supported these highly accomplished but surprisingly very down-to-earth heads of legal departments across the globe. Before going on mission, I was kind of worried that I might feel inferior being surrounded by lawyers.  I was the only one without a title there, but God is great and…

In the Pink

The earliest citations of ‘in the pink’ are from the 16th century and, at that time, the meaning was ‘the very pinnacle of something’, but not necessarily limited to health.  I actually feel that I am on my way to the peak of my life. Life gets better and better every single year. I thank…

{Another} one for the books

I had the most wonderful time last week in a place I have never imagined to see and experience in my lifetime, to say the least. This photo was taken the morning after our Tbilisi event has concluded. I’m so grateful that everything went well, every single experience was new to me, and there’s so…

“me time” essentials

The ABCs of my “me time” essentials include: Good: Ambiance  Book  Coffee ️ On this particular day, I managed to squeeze in some “me time.” I actually wanted to make it a regular part of my schedule, maybe once a month, one Saturday or one Sunday when I will spend it somewhere, just reading, chilling, writing my…
