its a world of a difference in singapore to ho chi minh city! :)) i'm delighted to be back but at the same time wishing that i had more time to explore the rich culture of vietnam:):) i'm happy that we met up with the other families just before christmas. remembering the reason for the season. and dedicated a praise & worship + sharing session to Him. :) everyone gave their humble opinion on their thoughts of vietnam and/or celebrating christmas there. :):) some shared of their regret and was remorseful. but all was well! as uncle shiguang said, this sharing was not coincidental. its God opening the hearts of people to share the load with the bros and sisters around you! for my sharing, i wanted to share abit more then i did but speaking to a group of parents overwhelmed my train of thoughts. therefore the words came out distorted. idea was to share of how caring the vietnamese were (i.e: taking care of the pedestrians) and how fortunate we were as people who are given the opportunity to travel and celebrate christmas overseas. its really saddening to see how their society have moulded them. fighting to earn a living. their despondent faces everytime a bargain made or a sale turned down. slowly but surely erupts into a desperation for sale. bitter and vexed. and multiply this by the number of cheapo customers who can probably afford 4 times more. its a pity. :(
