Junk Food, Junk Email, Junk Life

After I returned from the 720 retreat, I found my Outlook is full of Junk Mail. My habit is to put all the junk mail in to the deleted file and than sorting them by subject to make sure I did not delete any of my real email.

By sorting the junk email by subject, I have recognized there are a pattern of them. I categoried them in to below:
  • sexual junk mail
  • medicine junk mail
  • dieting and weight lose junk mail
  • software junk mail
  • academic degree buying junk mail

I found Satan is the best junk sales person who exposes his evil willing and act to the extent that is too obvious. If you are not attracted or confused by him, you should have the ability to distinguish those very obvious evil and sinful temptations. The remaining is your choice that could not be deny any more as an excuses. Well, how do you choose to live?

SunFlower - Elsie/July - Ceramic Class

We met at the Tien Hau MTR and walked to the JL Ceramic located on the Electric Road. Mable was there to welcome us. She was particular happy to see Michelle has grown a lot.

Mable started to show Michelle, Elsie and Docus how to make a pencil stand with ceramic. Then, it was our turn for a creative production.

Through out the production process, I could observe some character reflection of Elsie and Docus. I do not mention Michelle because she is familiar with JL Ceramic and Mable as we did learned for 2 years here.

Elsie could structure what she wants in her mind but seldom feedback back what she was doing and asked question to the teacher. Finally she did a product with full content and unique theme. Awesome@

Docus could master very quickly on the ceramic technique but felt a bit missing of what she wants to make. She is formal with less allowance on herself for funny ideas. Finally Docus finished her artwork with a giant crab with a moveable top shell.

Michelle made a castle with a prince and princess while I made "a shouting mouth".

We will come back for the coloring few weeks later. Please stay tuned.

Reap in JOY

Happiness when being Fruitful (not by the power of us but by the grace of God expressing through nature which requires our faith in they will reap in God's order and our willingness to join in the effort)
