Today, I did a lot of research on some statistics of local economies... I must confess... I never knew that there is so much data out there on economy. As i do my research and scan through the data that I need for the job, a bit of me felt a sense of pride... and grateful for what the authorities have been doing. Especially grateful for EDB for bringing in so many MNC, and convincing them to make Singapore their headquarters, or hub. It's not easy. Grateful to Mr Philip Yeo as well. I hear his name often, but don't really know what he does. Now I know. I am just so impressed that our local government is trying so hard to bring in foreign investments so that there could be more job opportunities, so that the economies may be revived.

Thank you Singapore Government, Mr Philip Yeo, EDB and anyone who works for the authorities to bring in investment into the country so that more of our people get jobs. The statistics really open my insight to things I never know. And I am so glad I saw them.

=============================================

Yes, I will be leaving next year. So why did I attend Prayer Meeting? I asked myself this question too. The answer is obvious. I didn't go because of the people. I go because of God.

However, I feel more detached tonight. There weren't much people who are around my age group. I wonder why. And I do not think it's fair to say that they have other priorities. Perhaps they are as tired as I am about serving. Perhaps they just want to take a break, like me.

I felt like writing on the slip that the leaders should examine the demographics of the attendees to the prayer meeting and look into the common factor that runs through them. And not just simply ask them to come and pray. Know who comes and why those who should didn't come.

But I didn't write anything.

I am feeling abit queasy already. Whenever there is prayer, my mind wanders. Whenever there are singing, I barely sang. When there are times of reflections, my mind wander again.

I just feel like a stranger... It don't feel the same anymore. I am not feeling anything to the prayer items.

Maybe I should stop going from next month onwards.
