Yes, a success





Yesterday was the last day of our Taoist Day Celebration.

Just in case some of you didnt know, the celebration lasted from last TUE all the way to SUN. Tue and Wed were for the Taoism Talks, Thur, Fri, Sat were rituals. 12 rituals to be done in just 3 days!

We started at 9am DAILY and end at 9pm. After that, still got logistic, administrative and preparation work to do.

So folks, now you know, it is never easy to do big events. And cant say that its 'late liao, must go back'...you have to make sacrifices and take up the responsiblity.

Last night was the dinner night. Special thank to my friends, Jimmy and Wife, Alfred and Qing Yu, AK and Gabriel for attending. My family came too, thanks to you guys also.

Our GOH - Mr and Mrs Tharman, was very kind. They came, went to the stage and although a non-Taoist, still offer incense to our Lord Lao Zi. later they also out of goodwill donated money to us as well.

9 main religions in Singapore also went on stage to perform a min of prayer each.

Here and there, there were hiccups, well, we done our best, must admit we did not have sufficient preparation work done for the dinner night, cos we really have limited time left and too many things to handle. But we still do our best.

The guy who we invited to come and hold the auction did not appear. I and 1 of my fellow brother had to go to the stage to take over. It was really terok! It was really not my cup of tea, and i am rather tired, not prepared and blur. Mind blank liao. lol

well, what to do? it has happened and you need to do damage control. But i am really thankful that many kind supporters forgive our hiccups and still support us throughout. Things manage to proceed and ended happily. Personally i trust it is the grace of our Lord that make it all a success.
