Feng shui

I was going through some old newspapers when I came across an article on feng shui. This reminded me of that short period back in the early 2000s. Feng shui was a hot topic then and the local feng shui master,Lillian Too's books, talks and TV shows caught the fancy of my 2 breakfast friends.They became very obsessed, following diligently all the dos and don't and paying costly to attend her talks. My friends shared and discussed feng shui tips all the time during our breakfast breaks so much so that I had to borrow their books to read so that I could join in their conversation. hahaha.. As long as it did not touch on religion and idol worship, it was fine with me.

I had an opportunity to hear Lillian Too talked in person too and that was for free!!. A friend gave my sister, Bee Hong an invitation card to attend an exclusively talk on her jewellery designs at OE Design, a jewellery factory in Bayan Lepas. Bee Hong brought me along. Yes..... she was indeed a most convincing speaker.

While Lillian Too emphasised on wearing and placing decorative items in strategic positions to overcome bad feng shui, another master whom I chatted with casually, insisted that using bamboo and salt water was enough. No need to spend so much money buying expensive and beautiful decorative items. I think if I were to ask yet another master, I would get a different set of answer. Contradicting and confusing!!

Well.... at the end of it all, I choose to believe in the BIBLE.

Romans 8:28 says....... " And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. "


Yes, to everything there is a season and a reason, whether in times of plenty or want; in times of joy or sorrow; things do happen for a reason and you can trust that God will see you through.
