Paralysis

In our HK dorm

Langkawi was beautiful

In FGC, Alor Setar

I'm still a little tired from the exhausting Hong Kong and Malaysia run of Omni Kids Tour. Not that it wasn't fun and fulfilling. Stressful to boot. I found that living constantly with 12 other people really grated on my nerves. In Taiwan, I'm used to being alone so much of the time that this was a shock to my system. 

But I thank God for the opportunity to live communally with a lot of people. I reasoned to myself that it is good training for future tours, which might be even more grinding. Also, this trip really helped the team bond in special ways. It was privilege to get to know the kids in the team better, and have them get to know me better as well. The simple affection/devotion of kids is a precious, precious thing to have. I also got to know some of the others better, particularly TC, Ange and YY. 

It is my second day back in Taipei. I really should be unpacking, folding laundry, catching up on work etc. But life in Taipei sometimes daunts me to the point of paralysis. I busy myself with lots of bits and pieces or chores that ultimately bring me no further forward. Of course the muggy, HOT weather does not help in the least. This really must change.

There is so much that needs to be done. Sigh. 

I'll update more about the trip later.

Fear and Faith

I wish I could get rid of this feeling of underlying fear that grips me once in a while. After every high there is an inevitable crash. Or when I wake up, it's really hard to face the day not quite knowing what you should do or what the goal is in the end.  I can picture this trembling kid in my mind, who's quite desperate to cling on to something for safety and comfort. And that kid is me. But the kid's alone. And there's no one to actually to hang on to, and nothing to hug, not even a pillow. But the kid is also wary of clinging on to anything because that might prove disastrous, as it has in the past. You get entangled with unnecessary things or people So,  Kid is stuck with just holding nothing. Waiting.  I mean, it's not like God never warned or foretold that this journey would be lonely, I'd be seemingly alone, but He would be with me. I would look like I was wobbly but He would uphold me. The only time the fear really alleviates is when God's pres...

陶喆 David Tao Mash Up 2 - 流沙/普通朋友 (by Charis蔡佳靈 + Nray 胡恩瑞 + 森林ㄌㄜˋ園)

高中會重覆聽100遍的歌就是‘普通朋友' 和 ‘流沙‘ ☺️ 很開心可以和  森林ㄌㄜˋ園 團長阿綠把這兩首百聽不厭的歌串在一起,重編成band sound的歌;然後和  N-Ray 胡恩瑞  &樂手朋友們呈現出來。謝謝有才的朋友們的參與!也再次謝謝負責攝影間接 Rick Lin 。希望你們會喜歡~歡迎分享、留言、訂閱、按 💗  !也可以跟我們說你們要接下來聽的歌 (那些點‘沙灘’的朋友我已看見你們的留言!) I remember re-playing 'Regular Friends' and 'Everything's gone' so many times on the way to school. They were such classic hits! Here's the 2nd David Tao mashup video we produced. My gifted singer/songwriter/keyboardist friend Green Lee sat down with me to re-arrange it together (guess which other song we used as a base for the two tracks 😁 ?). Had lots of fun recording and shooting this with my talented pals! Please help us share around, and do subscribe if you haven't yet!
