Love & Appreciation

Remember my older post where I raved about Paroimia? Well, during the show I spotted my friend's son in the cast and I was so impressed with his performance that when I came home, I email her and managed to convince her to make the trip up from Singapore to catch her son in action.

My friend then convinced her husband who then agreed to make it a family trip. When the decision was made to come back, they found out that that same Saturday was the Award's Day in their son's school, and their son was to be presented an award for Outstanding Achievement! (Her son scored straight As in the public examination and was a talented sportsman amongst other things). What incredible timing! And because they had to travel back during peak time, they were worried about getting seats for 4 of them. But again, God came through for them and reserved them 4 seats.

My friend called me up and expressed her appreciation for my persistence in convincing her to come back as she was so blessed and her pride as a mom swelled when she saw her son perform and when he received the award.

I'm just so glad that I managed to bless my friend this way because normally I'd like to think that I'm not the pushy type. But when she called me up to thank me, well, that really made my day!

Perhaps I should start being pushy for the things I'm truly passionate in?
