Jeremy Lin's Testimony

-
This guy has a great testimony and I enjoyed listening to it so here it is! The first video is from August 2012 after a period known as 'Linsanity'. For those who don't know, Jeremy Lin burst into the public consciousness following a remarkable 7 streak win during the NBA regular season. New York City went wild - I wasn't even a sports fan when it happened but I was in New York and you couldn't be in New York and not be a part of it all. 

The last two videos are from the 'pre-Linsanity' period.. I think it was some time in 2011 after he received his first NBA contract from the Golden State Warriers. They are fairly similar.. the post-Linsanity testimony includes a summary of the first and focusses more on what happened during and after his break out game. Happy watching.

 Jeremy Lin's Testimony (Post-Linsanity)


Romans 8:28 
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. 



John 4:13-14 
Everyone who drinks of the water from this well will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks of the water I will give him will never be thirsty again.


Matthew 16:26
What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?

Brugada Syndrome

I don't think I will ever be a plastic surgeon. Not because I like plastics any less but because I cannot let cardiology go. Today I started studying cardiology cases for my exams and came across a segment on Brugada syndrome and the ECG patterns that are typical to this condition. I was surprised to see that this condition was discovered and described as recently as 1992 by a family of Spanish Catalan doctors (the Brugada doctors). I love finding 'new' cardiology information because the problem with being so interested in something is that I sometimes run out of novel 'findings' to keep me interested in the field. Lately I have been reading about microvascular dysfunction (related to womens cardiac conditions) and today Brugada ECGs. I think I could do this forever.

Reflections

The number of times I have felt slighted because of my gender has been countless. The number of times my male (and female) counterparts have silenced me, or taken me less seriously, are many. People will not acknowledge a problem that exists, if it does not exist in their world. If they do not experience the slights because they are any combination of rich, white, or male. We have come to a point where people will accept the presence of 'White Privilege' as a concept, but they do not truly believe that their accomplishments are any easier to come by as a result. And they do not care. Why would they when the establishment is in their favour? I have come to learn many things about being female. I have learnt that some times we play a role in our own destruction. We wait to be rescued, or to be handed a hall pass, because for many years we have not been expected to excel on our own merit. We wait for mentors, without realising that mentors pick people in whom they see something

Reflections - On whether I am on the right path in life.

I have spent the past 3 months working with a particular resident at my hospital. Some times when you walk around the hospital it is like walking in a Marcs/Country Road/CUE showroom. Many of our doctors come from affluent backgrounds - whose fathers, and sometimes mothers are doctors, university chancellors, business-people, lawyers, politicians. I often wonder if they have ever had difficulties in life. If they know what it means to earn your keep, and to actually have to work for their 'achievements'. Many of them live at home, or in homes paid for by their wealthy and protective parents. Their biggest problems is probably divorce between those parents. They travel extensively, with numerous photos of their exotic exploits posted onto Facebook. They are athletic, intelligent and beautiful. They will often go on to marry other wealthy individuals, usually surgeons, cardiologists, lawyers. They have massive impractical heirlooms on their ring fingers. They are entitled. They w
