Character Leadership Course
I've spent a week at the Sacred Heart Monastery in kensington, Sydeny for a course. The course teaches us to be be leaders within our lives, work etc by relflecting on the Christian values and the scripture.
We've had some awesome conversations about God, people, relationships, leadership and charater. I guess I had a slight glimps of what college will be like.
We had people from work from different places who are not believers of Christ but decide to come to this course with an open mind and a searching attitude. And we had great talks and answering some of their questions about God and life. I found the converstaions more interesting than the course itself.
Praise God for placing non believers in to this course because the seeds have definitely been planted, now it's up to God to make it grow.
ps: I suppose there are benefits to living in the city. I had an awesome run from kensington to SCG, around the Centennial park, randwick then back to kensington. Pretty tired after that.

Striking Josh
The dinner with Josh and Naomi in Newtown was entertaining and insightful. Josh showed his room at college to me and asked if I can paint something for him to hang up so that the room felt more "him".
So this painting "Striking Josh" is both inspired by Josh's request and Naomi's suggestion about painting Josh's constant personal and public reflection of his "good" looks.
I hope you like it, I pulled an all nighter to finish this !!!
"Striking Josh"
Cost of Paint: ........................ $ 5.00
Cost of Canvas: ..................... $ 6.00
Cost of Labour: ..................... 7 hours worth
Truth about Josh: ................. Priceless
PS: comments and insights are partly true and fictional. Painting should be viewed with a cocked funny eye. So don't take it personally.
PPS: Let me know when you want to pick it up.
