Visiting my dad in the morning is full of question mark. Sometime he doesn't sleep in his bedroom, he rather sleep in the living hall. When I arrive this morning, he is still fast asleep.








I am praying and putting into action to improve his living condition. Those of you who are too busy to work to earn the money, just visit this blog and get updated. You can support me by granting me help whenever you can.












Sincere friends can also visit my dad anytime, those who don't have a grandpa, you too can visit him and pray with him. Help him within what you can do for him. The Bible says...when you do good, don't let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. May the Lord bless whosoever you are and for the Almighty God, He is Jehovah Jireh never fails to provide all your needs. Be bless always to give. Beautitude also says it is more blessed to give than to receive.

When I was a teenager, living in the Kampong Tanjong Aru Baru, I always had many neighbours.One of my neighbour living a few houses behind my house had a grandpa; I oftened see the grandpa walking passed my house, I remember I once saw him... one hand holding a bunch of bananas walking home along the long wooden bridge to his home, he lived in a room specially allocated for him alone. This neighbour of mine had many members young and old, and there was not enough room for every one. I often wondered why was he so selfish and won't share his goody-o or room with his grandchildren. Now I understand.


I'm never loved by an old old grandpa and never understand what grandparents love is like. Before I was born, all my grand parents had died Today...I'm experience what is the life of an old grandpa is all about. I prayed for a forgiving heart from the Lord, where I'm hurt and wrongly accused, I forgives because nothing can change the fact that my dad is a grandpa, physically fall short of doing so many things. Mentally is not good at remember where he put personal items/things, but old memories from his childhood flooding back and so clear and vivid to him.

The Lord has been gracious to me and I will bless my dad with a better living condition.

Speak Grace, Speak Mercy....Speak Healing...


Dr Michael Heng and Mr Chong Thau Tshin


On behalf of my siblings, myself and husband William, thanking God, for you, Dr Michael Heng, has make my dad to look good and smile.
Is it necessary that one should not enjoy longivity because of loss of memory ? Have we suffered much because my loving dad's memory is short ? Have the people around us given us much encouragement ? I'm loss for words because I'm taught to be blameless, when I'm running out of merciful words, I spend my time in quiet devotion and Praising the Lord. I gather strength to go and help my dad; I can only testify that the Beautitude guides me through my walk with God at time like this.

What is Longivity?...O God Be Exalted Above The Heavens



Centre: Mr Chong Thau Tshin(Single)




Those days when you own such a car you're really a rich person. That is my dad before he marries my mother.




My daddy worked as a Bus Driver, and later promoted to a Station Master. Those days Drivers and the Bus Conductors had smart uniform. As a little girl I've always been proud of my dad and more so the conductors that followed my dad, they knew I'm his daughter and won't collect fares from me. :)(I believed my sibblings got the same experience. Let them speak for themselves.)

The bible says that being born into poverty is not a sin. A few preachers said that when one is born, one is a winner. So I kept these in my heart and often wonder how can this be ?...when I was small, I have so much lack.


There was a time in my childhood, me and sibblings wandering around in Kampong Sembulan Baru, because both my parents got to work to find food on the table. God sent an Evangelist Kong Luk Ku to us, to this day I never forgot her, she taught us 'Jesus loves Even Me', this hymns was taught in mandarin, but I'm destined to learn English, because my mother brought me into a Convent School and those days English is the language taught. I learnt English from Kindergarten to Secondary level.

Someone Interested to buy my Piano

Albert Tsen playing a piece

Lilly with the Technic Organ


Learning music is like chasing after the rainbow. More so when I tried to raise my sons to love music. Being boys both my sons have a preference to playing badminton than piano. The search as to what is best to give them landed me with many piano, digital keyboard, and technic organ.


After using the weinbach piano for 19 years I got really attached to the piano. So much of life attachment to the piece of piano, a means to an end. I just couldn't just sell it. How I wish to keep it and someone can take care of it when I'm away, tune it every year and play it often to brighten the day. My consolation after the piano is sold, I still have this technic organ.


After much thinking, finally someone with 2 very young children learning piano but don't have it at home to practice, therefore the mother is searching for one...now I only need to wait for her to bring me the cash and it's all hers to once again, build up their life and another phase for this beautiful piano.

The word for the moment is wait....!

My Life Story Is Predestined and Foreordained

I am so happy to play my own piano. I own this piano and bought it in year 1989.

See my happy face beaming with joy to touch the piano and thank God Almighty for beautiful fingers

This photo was taken in the church, I was 10 years old and in my heart deepest desire was to own a piano!

My father gave me a simple name, he thinks I'm a pretty girl as pretty as the Lily Flower, He named me same in English and chinese. When I was 10 yrs old I always thought my school friends have prettier faces, bigger eyes and beautiful long name, and my name was not special. That's not true.

Today, may father is a very old man. Myself also old, my desires and dream in life are met and am satisfied with plenty.
The days now is getting closer for me to part with my piano, I cannot bring it along with me because I am migrating to Australia. I will have a brand new chapter in life once I get there. Soon I will have to sell my beloved piano.
