that smile...

gosh.. i cant believe im actually blogging everyday.. even tho i've got so much work to do. argh! terrible terrible me!!! yet i feel so strongly about today dat i jus gotta get it off my chest.

had a special coaching experience today. was kinda scared.. abit apprehensive about it initially. dunno how i was gonna handle the participants. have never had proper interaction or experience handling them. n i was doubtful whether i was capable of controlling them. when i first saw them... my fear escalated. i wanted to be a good coach, yet i was unsure how communication with them would be like. however i told myself... i can make a difference. i must make a difference. its up to me to make that difference. n i felt so empowered after dat. no more fears, no more doubts. i just went in to my group, handled whatever situation there was. n it felt good. in fact, they were very wonderful! even tho i faced some challenges, i was able to overcome them... n it felt truly good. it really stretched me, cos i had to be flexible and change strategy. i had to be very aware of what was happening too, whether they understood me or learnt anything. my first time experiencing something like this.

n i finally realised sth today... i do hav the heart. i do have the capacity to love. i do have the capability to care for ppl who are distant from me. my passion for helping others is coming out stronger and stronger by the day. and as i see the smiles on their faces... i feel a sense of warmth. an indescribable feeling that fills me with hope, with happiness, with comfort. i felt very human today. to have the chance to see the side of the world that ppl usually neglected or forgot. n im glad to know that there are kind souls who are constantly loving them, helping them. n im honoured to be part of that team today.

i will never forget that wide smile from jason. it is that smile that still lingers in my memory, in my heart. it is that smile that gave me that immense strength. it is that smile that filled me with hope. that smile of hope. that smile of joy. that smile of appreciation. in him, i see so much potential, so much love, so much capability, so much humility, even more than what we can give. he is my inspiration for the day. n i will never forget that smile...
