ready for 2010!

with Christmas behind us tis time to look fwd to 2010...
i and a good friend chatted about what seemed to be a light question over dinner: "what would i be willing to sacrifice everything in exchange for?"
don't think i hesitated much on this one - "family and friends" is my final answer.

family to me includes not only the immediate members of my family but extends obviously to brothers and sister whom share the same Christian faith. maybe a re-word of this would be that i value people relationship over material goods! this year's life experience (work in particular) has truly shed light on the importance of building relationship with other people. aside from nature of tasks, etc...job is meaningful only when the people you work with are also meaningful.

limelight now back...on my goals for 2010:
1. finish 2010 winter games project at work (done until end of feb yeah!) and re-instate a role that is more work-hours stable (i really miss 9am-5pm) and am not fond of constant business travel.
2. develop meaningful relationship that will last (God's timing and willing of course)
3. train for full marathon to happen in may (train for full and run at least half if training is not timely for the full)
4. continue to serve the little ones at church and learn how to cultivate ways to shape their growth in Christ
5. eat better (and stop losing weight at least until feb 2010 so i can handle daily work).

abba father,
i lay before you my thoughts for 2010; may you guide and protect me. grant me the wisdom and faith that only you can give. i know that your love and grace are sufficient for me =) amen!
