The FUN factor

Posted by sunshinedeb on July 19, 2009

SUNshine has been so busy my blog is dying! Haha…time to revive my blog!

On Friday, with only 3 hours of sleep, SUNshine had to go to PD Hospital for clinic, rush back and took high dose caffeine to survive, rush to check her slides, went for teaching in the ward, presented for a seminar, had case discussion, pack her stuff, drove back to KL, showered, took mei mei for dinner and send her for CG and was grateful we weren’t stuck in a jam thanks to the Devils!

This week, something hit me after my boss called me. :) We all did something different in cell group this week to make things more FUN! We realise that the FUN factor is just so important for people to grow and stay in the cell group. :)

So, I met up my members for dinner as usual, and cell group started as usual. But when it was time for the Word of God, I gave them a cheeky smile and said, “There’s no sermon prepared this week! Oh no..how???” Haha…

They were suppose to prepare a mini drama based on a parable/story/value in the Bible and spiced it up in modern times and make it really funny! And boy! It was funny and fun! Haha….Now I know they really can act! It was a surprise that they really enjoy and was recharged. :)

I was just thinking about the FUN factor in our lives. The reason why we have our favourite hang out friends is because they are simply fun to be with. Work and ministry can be tiring and stressful, and it’s just so much easier if there’s fun in it and you’re enjoying it. It’s always better to be happy and tired than to be tired and sad! Haha…And in a relationship or marriage, fun is so important! I don’t wanna marry a bossy guy who does things well and can take care of me but there’s no fun, but my best friend whom I can have loads of fun together with! I don’t just want mushy romance all the time, but loads of fun in this friendship.

Although many issues in life ought to be taken seriously, it doesn’t mean that the FUN factor can’t be in it. Cell group ought to be serious about the Word of God, prayer, commitment, Presence of God, but we can have those in FUN. We ought to be serious about our work, marriage, ministry, but it can be seriously FUN too! Hehe….

So..in the midst of doing well and chasing your dreams, remember to enjoy the ride too! :) I once came across this quote: If there’s no fun in all you do in life, there’s something wrong with all that you’re doing.

So..chill la! :)

In my attempt to look like an ENT surgeon with the headlight, I end up looking like a Mat Rock thanks to my soft and straight hair. Hehe..My hair slides up when I put the band on! :P I think I entertain my classmates quite well! :P
