Awwww... I am tired. Just one more entry before I hit the pillows. Daddy Lim and the baby are already warmly wrapped up in the air con room. I had been wanting to blog about these entries recently bit simply no time. So now I blog all at the same time lah.
I have always pride myself as a boss who doesnt scold my staff. However, I realised that when I am under stress, my fuse gets really short. There had been many times that I actually scold my girls. The frequency and intensity increases so much more when my boss was on maternity leave.
It hurts a little when my girls feedback that I am becoming fiercer and more and more like a boss. Actually, I feel that way too, but it always hurt more when you hear it from somebody else mah.
Just that day, I heard Daddy Lim talking in a uber stuck-up attitude to a contractor and it made me realised that the person at the end of the line must have felt like s**t. I feedback to Daddy Lim too. Anyway, the important point is that I made a mental note to actually watch my language.
Galatians 5:22-23 (New International Version)
22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
Just a few days ago, on 3 different days, on 3 different occasions, from 3 different persons, I received feedback that I am:
- Hostile
- Fierce
- Must watch what I say.
Win liao lor. My heart just bled. -.o" Apparently, that mental note didnt help a single bit.
All the more I think I have to watch what I say now.
How to be "gentle" huh?
Lord, I want to bear these fruits bcos you have given me the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Mummy Lim
