Doctor Lim

I had a beautiful conversation with my wife in the wee hours this morning. The topic of our conversation was however morbid. We were discussing her fears and mine, a "what-if" she or me were to pass on. I supposed we needed to talk, with the recent demise of her colleague, student. I am glad we did, and glad that I shared with her, that no matter what happens, the surviving one must be strong - for the kids. It's going to be tough, but they are our future. As she says, in Noah, there's a mini-me; in Claire, there's a mini- her. I told her that she should start to pen her thoughts in her blog again, just to ventilate and also to serve as a memory. And I have to write this down: my advice to her would be "to do what I (as in me) would have done", even if I am not around. Suddenly, the song "I'll be There" from When in Rome comes to my mind. (Dont be afraid, oh my love, I'll be watching you from above....Just think of me, and I'll be there.)

Strangely enough, I received this verse on my email today.

The Lord will guide you continually, watering your life when you are dry and keeping you healthy, too. Isaiah 58:11 NLT
Wouldn't you like to know now what is in store for you a year from now? God leads us a day a time, a step at a time. No need to worry about distant events....

Trust the Lord, dar. Let's enjoy the present time as much as we can, and not worry about things we dont know and cannot control. Love.
