It's true. I am having a very relaxing time here. To the point where I am disconnected, and detached from a lot of things and people. But, I am quite glad for the break really. I think I was bordering on the edge of a burn-out( I have no idea why, cause I was having holidays..) but, I think the simple lifestyle here has allowed me a chance to breathe. I like not having to think of what to eat, and just going down to the canteen to be surprised. even when we end up eating sandwiches and cup noodles cause the food is terrible, I enjoy it as well:)

I like not having an agenda for the week, or even the day. just plan things when we go along. I guess it has something to do with my commitment issue? The basic things remain permanent, but the rest of my life has become more flexible. And I am glad for the no attachment kind of lifestyle. Quite selfish of me, but I fully intend to be more involved and more connected when I return back home. I was telling God that I think this trip to Korea feels a little like a Sabbath. A break from what I have been used to, come here to clear my head a bit in the cold weather, and when I get back, I will be more spiritually mature:)

but then again, today's message at church reminds me that God did not give us the Sabbath to rest so we can go back to work on mondays. He gave us the Sabbath to have fun, to relax and to enjoy His presence. To set apart our days for Him. and I think this exchange is going to be like that. Enjoying His goodness and His faithfulness here, with just enough light for the next step, not bothering with what is going to happen a few months later, and not being anxious about the future:)

I really like this living in the moment kind of lifestyle:D

Thank You Lord!
