Numbers

I've been reading the chapter Numbers in the bible. Yes, there are lots of numbers and the things that were written were exact to the dot, for example, when a census was taken, they actually write down how many people they counted.

I was really fascinated at how the different clans have a different job scope. The Levites were to enter into the tent and the Kohathites were only to carry the holy things and not look at them at all. This other clan were to carry the curtains and this other one were to carry the tents and the gears.

To each, there was a specific job description.

Numbers 4:49a
At the Lord's commandment through Moses, each was assigned his work and told what to carry.


I just watched Never Let Me Go

It is a beautiful but sad movie. (spoiler alert) People were created just for the sake of organ donation. They were created to die. There were no other means of escape, no deferrals, no excuses and no time to experience true love. Their sole purpose was to extend the life of this other person whom they have never met. They "complete" when there has been so many organs that are taken out that they practically cant survive anymore.

As graduation is approaching, uni has been organising lots of careers related talks with us, and in guiding us on making our choices for next year. I am truly one step closer to working in the healthcare world. But the big question is, where to go and what's next?

It's scary, not just because we are next in line to step out of uni and into the working world.
It's scary, cos it is time to carry the load of the society.
It's scary because I am going to be walking in my destiny.
