04/06/2013 How has it been for you?

I've been experiencing the dark side of social work ever since I started my placement. Maybe what Doc. Goh mentioned in lecture is reenacting and being put to great test. As a social worker, we face the dark side of life everyday, do you have the courage to face them? Honestly, I'm starting to get a little scared of what's happening around me. Heartbroken. You see what people don't see. You listen to what people don't like to hear. But I guess most importantly, you gets to see the true human nature of life. We are all sinful and fall short of God's glory. I cannot believe if anyone stands before me and proclaim that he or she is perfect. God knows every dark secret and our heart. Through this placement, I am also praying that God will help me to see His presence in every small details! Even though I have my own struggles with my own relationship, I know that my world lies in Him.
