About me..myself..my childhood time


            Well, it’s really weird to write something about my life here but I believe not much people know me well even my past life. Since I decided to write something about myself here so there is nothing that I could hide. 1st of all, I would like to begin with a story telling which it was about a girl who had overcome all those obstacles that she’d faced since she was a baby girl. This girl named Lydia. Lydia was born in 1989 in a big family. Actually, there were about 14 family members lived in that small house that time which most of them were Lydia’s dad siblings. Perhaps before I continue to the next sentence, all of you might think that Lydia’s was come from a big and happiness family. In fact, her life was not as happy as you think. Why I said so?? Because her grandparents were totally not happy with Lydia’s family presence. Lydia really have no idea why her grandparents especially her grandpa was not happy with their presence until now. Lydia actually was in the centred of 5 of the children. Her father was just a painter which couldn’t earn much so her mother got an idea to become a baby sitter to take care of neighbour’s kids.
            However, Lydia’s family life still remains the same as her grandpa didn’t like them so much. Every time when Lydia’s eldest sisters wanted to have their revision at LIVING ROOM, her grandpa was walking down the stairs without sound. Can u imagine that scene???I’m guarantee u’ll really scared of this kind of action. Do u know the reason her grandpa came down???U will never know how cruel was this grandpa is……He was switching off all the light around the living room even the whole house. Really a cruel grandpa!!!!He also a selfish grandpa..why I said so??Becz he likes Lydia’s cousin more than Lydia’s sibling and Lydia. Every time when Lydia’s aunty (her father’s sister) came to their house, her grandpa always insulting Lydia’s family. Do u know what he said? He said to Lydia’s sibling: “ aiya,no need so rajin to study lar….u can’t even can study until higher education…What for so hardworking study during primary time??hahahaha.(He using Hokkien to say them)” Well, if u are Lydia’s mother or father, what is ur reaction towards these words???Lydia’s mothers still not giving up raising them up until higher education and so her father.
            Year by year, time by time….Lydia and her siblings was growing up and they still schooling until secondary. But all “tragedy” had not end yet….That tragedy really make Lydia’s family life turn from colourful to grey. Lydia’s grandpa was chasing Lydia’s family out from that house that they lived for about 20 years…!!!!!Can u imagine that????Lydia’s dad was paying a lot of money in that house compared to her uncle and when everything was been paid then her cruel grandpa was chasing them out!!!! Her grandma don’t even voice out from stopping. But thanks God is that Lydia’s parents got a new house where the house still under construction..They have no choice but just move into that still under construction new house.
            In year 2008 March 17, Lydia’s family had came to the 2nd tragedy that happened in her house. It was really a big lost for Lydia’s family as her father had dead in a car accident. Lydia’s family were definitely couldn’t accepted this fact as they lost their beloved father and husband for her mom. Lydia’s grandparents were crying out loud and blaming themselves. Well, this was the consequence that they chasing out Lydia’s family out from that house otherwise her dad will not dead in car accident. BUT ALL THIS COME TOO LATE!!!!No point for them to REGRET as Lydia’s dad was leaving from this land….
            This story is actually about my family….The name of Lydia is actually my name and all these were not a story but is a real life happened on me and my family as well. However, I really thank God for everything. Though my family and I had to overcome all these obstacles but I know God wanted us to learn from the past. Jesus Christ has changed my family life and me as well. So far, 6 of my family members that 4 of us had Baptist but my mother and younger brother also commit to believe in Jesus Christ .Of course, there still another things that I want to clarified here is that because of them who chasing out us & insulting us so much in the past, my sisters and I can gain until university and as well as both of my brothers…
           

《生命之歌》背后的付出

         一位导演,一本完整的剧本,一个舞台,数位演员,数位舞蹈员。。这样一部的《生命之歌》就呈现给上百位观众观赏。。这部戏剧是由我教会的一位弟兄导的,真的是个有天分的一位弟兄。不仅会导,也很会作词和作曲。我也很喜欢戏剧里的每一首歌。
                在筹备这部戏剧的期间,每位演员也很努力的再练习,直到当晚的演出,也是很逼真(值得赞)虽然,我只是负责灯光,不过控制灯光也并不是很简单。因为,要懂得拿捏TIMING;万一灯光控制不对时候,那么整部戏剧也混乱了。。不过感谢主,因为当晚的灯光控制还算很成功。最难的部分就是,当舞蹈员(FEASIBLE CREW)跳的那部分,因为所跳的是快的舞步,所以灯光必须要一直换颜色,这样才能有更好的效果。当然,也辛苦了后台的工作人员。因为他们必须在每一次换幕时,要用最快的速度搬弄那些道具,所以对我来说也是不简单。更不简单的工作就是,导演。。众人所知,导演的工作就是必须确保每位演员都呈献一部让人感动同时要带出效果的戏剧,是件很不容易的事情。当然,导演的教导,每一位演员都要用心的去吸取经验及教导。那么,演员当然就是要很努力的去背台词。不管台词有多长或很短,我们一旦接了那么重要的任务;我们就必须去实行。既然别人认为我们能演的,那么我们就不能让相信我们有演戏才华的弟兄姐妹失望。我们更不能忘记的一件事,就是我们演出不是为了导演,而是为了我们的大老板呀。。。上帝!!!我们所做的每一件事,有哪一件事不是为上帝而做的呢?就是因为上帝给了导演这个任务,要祂的子民把这任务传遍天下每一个非信徒。。究竟是什么任务???就是传福音啊!!!透过戏剧,我们就能INDIRECTLY把福音传给他们;那么你和我就已经为上帝做事工了。。
不过经过一个月内苦练的练习后。终于在星期日那晚,每一位演员都把最好的一次呈献给每位观众。。。当然,也获得了观众的热烈掌声和意见。有些还说:“去年的戏剧布道会很精彩,不过今年的比去年的更精彩、更好看。”这样的一句活,让我们每个人都得到了安慰。我们真的要感谢天父上帝的保守。因为只有祂,我们才能把最好的呈献给他们。
