God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way. And ME to share all the pain, laughter, tears, sorrow,happiness, sun and rain with you! Let us endure all the 暴风雨 and 彩虹 together!

Quotes from Course attended

I've attended a course at National Council of Social Service, Social Service Training Institute this morning. The speaker was Bee Leng, a very inspiring speaker and knowledgeable in the area that she is sharing with us - 'Handling difficult clients'. She is from Continuum Learning Pte Ltd.

I believe most of the strategies can be applied to other people, not just our clients that we are serving. It can be with our friends and family.

I'll shall share more when I'm more alert and have the time. Now I shall only share with you some quotes that I found meaningful or trigger some thoughts in me:


"With choices that you made, you closed some doors and open some doors but you cannot choose the consequences."

"Once people determine that what they want is not happening or what they don't want is happening, their behaviour becomes extreme and therefore less tolerable to others."

"Between stimulus and response is a space. In this space lies our freedom to choose our response. In these choices lie our growth and our happiness."

"Don't curse the darkness. Light the candle."

The above quotes are all taken from the workshop material, thus belongs to Continuum Learning Pte Ltd.
