HELLO! YES this is the BIG THING that we are all LOOKING FORWARD TO! Our very OWN CCI blog! The one channel where we can share our views, ideas and emotions. Though I only entered CCI two months ago, I had never once felt like an outsider. As cliché as it might seem, it has become my 2nd home! Besides literally spending most of my time in base, CCI is the place where I found comfort and assurance.
This is the place where I had made great friends.
This is the place where my passion is and I can just be who I am.
This is also the place where we can share, learn and grow together.
Undeniably, I had learnt the most from the students themselves. One of my most unforgettable moments is the program in Anderson Primary School. Once, they were showing me the files that they had made and designed based on the theme environment and leadership. What impressed me was a girl’s file with a quote,
“When wealth is lost, nothing is lost.
When health is lost, something is lost.
But when Character is lost, everything is lost.”
She is only primary three. Yet, she understood the true meaning of character and the importance of it. Looking at the many adults who had lost their character along the way because of their obsession with money, they seemed so inferior beside her. That day, we awarded her with “the best designed file” title. We shared the quote with the whole class.
The class learnt something. So did I.
Love,
