Greetings for the New Year! I trust that all of you had a crazy yet fun time at whatever countdown you have! Today I’ll be writing my first post ever and I’ll be sharing with all of you what I feel it means to be One Family in Primers. Yes, I know, you have heard care, share and wait. You are most correct but I would like to share another dimension of it!
To me, family is a very big word. It means that we got to be very close to be called a family right? First and foremost it means that all of us are more than just friends. If all of us are in the same family, what makes you and me? Brothers and sisters! Some of us might ask, “I don’t think we are that close what.” Yes and you are right. One thing we have to recognize is that even a family needs
time and effort to build. The relationship and trust that we have in each other needs
time and effort to build! Hang in there and see your relationship with other brothers and sisters grow! It will happen if we put in
time and effort! I pray that all our relationship will deepen even more in years to come.
Next let’s talk about One Family, Many Members. What makes a rainbow beautiful is because of its many colours and likewise what makes a Family unique and special is because of the diversities of characters and personalities! And that includes you and me! Like it or not people are different. People not only have different personalities and character but also different gifting and talent. But it does not mean that if you have more talent or you are more outspoken you are more special; or if you are not so gifted and not very loud and so on you are less special.
Everyone in the Family is as special as everyone else! Do not listen to what the world says about you, whether or not you are good or not good. What the world says does not dictate that you are but let God dictate who you are, for God says, “You are fearfully and wonderfully made.”
You look at the rainbow and say to yourself that it is so beautiful. You said it is beautiful because it has many colours. Likewise, when we look at our Primers family, we are special simply because all of us are unique in our own ways. Can you imagine a rainbow having just one colour? In the same way, would you imagine if you walked into a Primers event and see 50 or 60 people of your same replicate, your way of talking, laughing and so on? Most likely you’ll be bored to tears because all of them are the same. Diversity is uniqueness and that’s who each one of us is in this Family!
Now, I would like to share with you the uniqueness of some people in this Family.
Huishan is passionate and able to blend in fast.
Vimel is an Indian who speaks mandarin but not only that; he is committed to the family.
Meijun never gives up easily and is a real hard working girl.
Sheng Long craps pretty much but has great leadership.
Junbaoz is goofy and funny but at the same time creative.
Juli though appears fierce, is a compassionate person.
