Welcome another 12 cute Kois making a total of 19!
The 12 kois were a gift from K. One koi representing one year since knowing him. Thank U!
And knowing that I was looking for the yellow ones, a pair finally came to the pond!
Yet to know more about fishing - did not realise so much work and effort required to transfer them to the pond...waiting, giving them time to adjust to the new place...putting in salt and some medicine...not able to feed them for the next 24 hours...:)
Arriving on the same day of this new fish to the family was another FISH family who came a visiting...The YU family...and we had a great time playing putt putt as well returning to childhood simple joy of kite flying!
Well, a befitting SOTONG kite for a little grand niece who had never flown one! Sotong ...real sotong!
K & K Thoughts for the year ending 2018
2018...time seems to have flown past , not slowly like the KOIs but like the KITE!
Kois need the water but the kite needs the wind. And we beings need both.
Kois glide inside the confined space of a pond but the kite glides outside a open space. And we beings thank God for the freedom we have in our going in and coming out.
What a Creator God we serve - He who created the beautiful kois and the winds and us - human beings, who in turn can make a cute sotong kite that is able to fly granted the right wind conditions....
A reminder from Acts 17:28 "For in him we live and move and have our being"
So this was how we spend our Christmas of 2018 in JB. A quiet but yet exciting time with family and loved ones.
And most importantly, as another year ends, I am grateful to another K of K. The King of Kings, Lord Jesus Christ. Yahweh.
Eccl 9:7-10 " Go, eat your food with gladness, and drink your wine with a joyful heart, for God has already approved what you do. Always be clothed in white and always anoint your head with oil. Enjoy with your wife (for me is hubby!), whom you love, all the days of this meaningless life that God has given you under the sun - all your meaningless days. For this is your lot in life and in your toilsome labor under the sun. Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the realm of the dead, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom"
P/S : On 22/12/18, we receive the news of a Malacca aunty who passed on. Had not seen her for many years. Alas, a reflection after coming back from the wake - a day trip drive up and down S'pore - Malacca...better to visit those living than the dead. That would be a 2019 resolution and future resolutions in years to come. As said by King Solomon- for in the realm of the dead where we are going, there is neither working nor planning .....so best to visit the living now....
