Met MW and spoke to her on Monday. I think she felt like I was a little guarded over my behaviour and words towards her the other day. I definitely was. On one hand I was respecting the existing fragility of our friendship, so I didn't want to strain it anymore. On the other hand I was learning to listen first before speaking. No doubt I still am in a stage of transition and growth, and there is much more for me to learn to become a better person, just like Jesus.
Putting it out there though, it is true that I do get carried away many times when I am speaking of my experiences and opinions. It is the flow of my own thoughts that makes me comfortable and makes me want to continue going on. But perhaps it might be more prudent for me to be mindful that a conversation is always two-way and I need to listen too, especially when I get carried away in my thoughts and opinions.
Much to grow, much to learn. But with the blessed assurance that God is beside me, and He will carry me through all my endeavours, as long as I put all my trust in Him, just like the phone interview with Rolls-Royce today, I am willing to take baby steps forward and become a better person.
I'll sing to You, Lord, a hymn of love
