WOAAW… What a week! It’s been a week since your and my family here… It’s been a really full week. We did really well. From touring melbourne, driving van, shopping, flowers, feeding people in church, rehearsal, changes in wedding, etc… It’s a full week.

I always enjoy our conversation while I’m driving at you are in front with me… Hmm… Though we don’t have “our-time” I think this is a first step for us as a couple. It is not only about us… It is more than “just-us” it’s our family, it is God, it is our friends, it is our church community, our leaders… so many things that surrounds us that we can be an impact for.

I am enjoying myself at home… reading all the notes in this blog make me realise that we have been through a lot… By God’s grace, we are here today… 1 more day we are an item.

Jessica, I love you… Looking forward to start another journey with you!

The proudest thing…

2 weeks in Bandung.. What a journey…

In the last 2 weeks, I have learn a lot about leadership. One key thing in leadership is humility. Humility (adjectival form: humble) is the quality of being modest and respectful.

With humility, we will able to listen, to be empathy, to care, to understand and to see deeper than what’s seen.

I know that God has brought me personally to this stage with a lot of preparation. I was trained in Kurioz, Swinburne and MPC as well as built as a better person. I believe that this role is a foundation for a greater work.

2 weeks in Bandung has also trained me to think about you more… To teach me what’s important in my life… is it my future? my work? my passion? my calling?

No it isn’t… more than anything… the most enjoyable time during the past 2 weeks in Bandung is the time we skype, we whatsapp, I got miss called from you… The most exciting times are the times that I tried to contact you, looking for internet or signal just to talk to you…

I know now… The bigger purpose for my trip…

If you remember when I stated my intentions in Wabisabi 2 years ago… I mentioned that “I am letting go my dream… my vision… my calling… Let it be our dream… our vision… our calling…”

The thing that I am proud of now is… having a God-loving future wife… named Jessica Neva Liauw.

I love you…

and THANK YOU for being a great support for me :)

Ookies, so we haven’t written anything in the last month. I guess it’s enough to show that we’ve been bogged down with wedding preparation.

Anyway, it’s H-166 and I’m so excited. I don’t want the days to go too quickly though. There are so many things to sort and decide in the next 165 days. Where to live in Sunny Coast, when to move to Sunny Coast,where to go for honeymoon, final list of who to invite, where will the family stay, where to bring them, where to buy flowers, cake tastings, invitation design, dance classes, songs selection, engagement photo shoot, reception opening video, and ultimately my visa. So many things to do but yes I’m grateful that I do it with you and very grateful that we can do it with friends who support us greatly <3

Singleness

So today I’m being reminded again on the notion of singleness. The notion that we should be a whole single person, so we can fill each other in a relationship without being drained by each other.

Today you’re going to Indonesia after your short trip to Sunny Coast. With my dear housemate having 6 weeks holiday as well (and that she’s going to Bathurst in a month time), I have million reasons to be sad and depressed.

So yes, today after church I couldn’t spend time with you, like we always do. I felt like I was thrown back in time when I was single and enjoying my ‘me time’. Something that I can’t imagine enjoying now. Not that I don’t need a ‘me time’..but I love it when I can call you when I feel like to, or even to text you and know that you’re there, not somewhere where you’re inaccessible.

Anyway, I’m excited for your Sunny Coast opportunity. I’m not sure what will happen to me if you move up north. Not sure about what I can do to make my life meaningful and interesting up there. Yet one thing I’m sure of, if it’s God’s will, God will make a way. I’ve experienced too many “lucky” things happened in my life, that I know now I can’t run away from my God and his plan.

And as you said, your trip to Indonesia will hopefully be a “2 minggu untuk selamanya”. Not to selamanya pisah sama aku, but to be selamanya kita together. I love you Phodi, and I’m excited for us.
