There are some things in life that don't go the way you want them to
or the way you think they should, but you can't dwell on these because
you'll miss out on other opportunities. Don't give up one something just
because you don't think things will work, you won't know unless you
give it a try. But don't hold onto something that left a long time ago,
because sooner or later you'll realize some things just aren't meant to be.
Letting go.....hmmmm.........
Charity
“It is better to give then to receive” as stated in Acts 20:35, emphasized on the importance of giving towards people who are in need. One of the many ways is through charity. Charity means donation or giving away to others in terms of material things, act and monetary. Although there are many organizations and groups doing this charity work, there are still rooms to lend a helping hand for these unfortunate people.
The NGK group which consists of professional from the different departments in the State Government of Sabah is proposing a charity mission to St Maria Goretti Binaong Keningau.
St Maria Goretti Hostel for girls was built on a 2 acres plus land at Kg. Binaong, Keningau, situated along the Tambunan – Keningau Highway Road, a short distance from the township of Keningau. It was built for poor rural students from the remote villages in and around Keningau town.
Many students from the rural areas of interior Sabah have to walk for miles and for hours to reach the school in Keningau town. This has prevented many from performing well in their studies. These students from the remote areas could not afford to rent accommodation in town. The plight of these students was brought to the attention of the Bishop of Keningau – Bishop Cornellius Piong, who was very concerned about their desperate needs particularly the girl students.
The hostel is managed by the Franciscan Sisters as a non-profit charitable organisation. They are non-government aided and for the daily upkeep and maintenance of the hostel, they solely depended on the little fees collected from the students and from generous benefactors. Currently, they are 73 students to the maximum aged from 13 to 19. These girls left their home and beloved families to pursue their academic studies in the various schools in town.
OBJECTIVES OF THE PROGRAMME
- To help the church by giving and helping the children;
- To gain knowledge, understanding and awareness on the importance of charity giving; and
- To foster networking and unity among members and the community through the programme
So friends... let us do support charity work
Loosing someone
Loosing someone is very difficult no matter who we are lossing.. it can be our bf/gf, our family members, our pet etc…. I lose my mother last July this year. She passed away due to cardiac arrest….It was so sudden and and unexpected, as it was for me the shock can be overwhelming .She was admitted to QEH for at least two weeks. We didn’t expect she will be gone that soon…She passed away at 8.15 am on the 16 July 2009.
I missed my mum very much..everything is changed when she gone.. I can feel it ….but I told myself that I must be strong…I know, no matter what circumstances of loss, there is always sadness, heartache and emptiness…..but I have to be strong….Here how I cope with it…
• Accept my feelings : learn to respect the feeling as part of us
• Treasure our relationships: share our feelings with friends with whom we can laugh, cry and shares new experiences.
• Draw on faith for healing : GOD is forever with us
• Be patient to ourselves : give ourselves to move through grief at our own pace and in our individual way
