Rainbow after the Rain

I noticed that I'ved been very absent minded these days, first I lost my umbrella or atleast I think I lost it. I don't even know how my umbrella looks like.

Secondly, I've been leaving stuff behind and found out I lost it later. Last Thursday, I lost my whole set of Conceptual design together with the floor layout drawings, service load and materials load table.

Then I left my Bible in church which I can't seems to located it anywhere when I returned to church about an hour later.

I usually forget which floor my car is parked on the multi-purpose hall. My friend ever told my one of our lecturer also ever forget where he parked his car. There was once when I forgot where my car is after school, so I started to look for it on 2A and above, I have a slight impression I parked my car on the A side, but when I search for my car till 5A, I begun to feel something very wrong had happened... Stolen... Then with a panic mind I bagun to find my car by punching my remote button like crazy. When I came to 2A I could hear a faint car lock/unlock sound, so this time I walked straight to 1A and find my car sitting peacefully there.

Besides forgeting where I parked my car, I also forget if I'd lock my car. It happened twice today, the first time was in the morning when I came back from phtocopy centre. I went all the way down from the car park only to remember that I left my calculator in my car. Well, I ended up running to and fro from the car parked twice before I can do anything worthwhile.

Concerning the missing set of drawings, I sms my lecturer, other group leaders to see if they find anything, they all gave me negative replies. So I end up redraw everything on AutoCAD, I reformated my laptop before the semester starts so I never use my AutoCAD after I reformat it. When I wanna do my design on last Sunday, I found out there's something wrong in AutoCAD 2007 that I wasn't able to use it. Some error occured. In panic and dismay, I searched on the Internet to find any available AutoCAD 2007 but to no avail, AutoDesk only offers AutoCAD 2009 trial version, no more 2007. So I asked everyone desparately if they have AutoCAD 2007, Everyone except 2 person have AutoCAD installer and their version was 2008. I had no choice but to accept the offer. After I installed AutoCAD 2008 on Monday, I finished my conceptual design on my laptop.

Then only on this evening during CEP lecture, one of my group member asked me to have a view on his calculation on drawing which I had given him the other day. Luckily I didn't draw others out yet or else I'll be wasting so much time on that.

When I wanna complete my conceptual design just now, I found out I forgot to delete my AutoCAD 2007, so when I open it again, I found it working perfectly just as it was. Now everything has come back to normal by itself. I didn't do anything at all. What can I comment on this?

Well, I admit I'm very absent minded these days maybe because I was so busy on school work and church activities. It doens't mean I forget something permanently. It's just somehow I seems to forget my friends' name, tasks, things I'm carrying and some past memory. Then after a while, I find all this memory is back by a flashed back. I think this is what God wants me to learn, instead of doing all these things, I should have rest my mind and focus on God Himself. God is telling me something throught the event of losing my Bible, absent minded and still busy with church activities and school work. God wants us to have intimate relationships with Him rather than seving him to an extend that we are blinded to do work only. God wants us to put Him the first priority then everything will come in order. To be frank I only read Bible and pray during youth and Sunday service these days. God shows me the way and shine on me not to stray away from the path. I'm really grateful, Lord Jesus is the Lord of All! Praise to be Thee! All glory to God Almighty! Amen.

Must have been too many things on your mind. Relax. One thing at a time. FOCUS.

Don't grow white hair so quickly.
