A Message from the Dude Up There

I just got an e mail from God:

________________________

Dear Chiew Ee,

Congratulations! You have been chosen as one of my few candidates for “Changing Your Life Programme”. You might have not realised this, but we have actually observed your performance since your move from Sabah, and you have passed all those preliminary tests we have dished out to you with flying colours.

Hence, we are offering you this wonderful opportunity to change your life. If you made it through this round, you will never have to worry about your future anymore. You will have a lucrative career ahead of you with the leadership skills, and all other knowledge you will gain out of this programme. There is no saying no by the way. as you have signed up for the programme one year ago when you decided to read law.

For your information, this programme has been tailor-made for you, just as it is for everyone else. No two people go thorugh the same programme. In order for you to successfully complete this programme, you will only need to complete a few simple tasks. Now, don’t worry. It’s as simple as ABC.

But there’s a catch. You will not get any holiday for the next two years. Your life will revolve around lectures, classes, tutorials, meetings and meetings, and did I mention assignments? You will have to spend lesser time with your family, and cut down on futsal and football.

You have just got your first mission, the Rotaract Club last year. All is well for the Club, but you still have half a year more to go as the President, remember that. You have also done well in your first year exams, and that vindicated our faith in you. But, you will have to do more, and work harder in order to pass this programme.

Your next mission is the two moot court competitions you will be involved in. Worry not. As it was in Rotaract, we have given you wonderful people to work with. You cannot fail. Do not forget also one of your main mission this year is to score your Part 1. The ball is in your court now.

At this juncture, remember that

For many are called, but few are chosen, Matthew 22:14

You are the chosen one. Only you can change your life.

With much love,

God
