30in30 - quick draw


This post is inspired by my brother who shared with us at the commencement of 30in30, about the quick-draw concept... Being the first to 'tract' someone, before they (or someone else) gets the chance to tract you (or them).

Yesterday while taking MinYan and Julia to King's Park, Truc was talking to a lady about flowers when she quickly said to me 'gonna get my tracts from the car' before running off into the distance in the direction of the carpark. The lady then started talking to me about flowers and I took the opportunity to pass her my tract. Rowena wins the quick-draw against Truc :) - lesson learnt: Always carry your tracts with you!

Today while at KFC, Caleb and I were ordering at one counter and John and Michelle at the other. As I got out my tract to pass to our KFC cashier, Caleb saw me and said 'let me have this one, I'm really behind' - being his older sister, the nurturing nature prevailed and I 'holstered my weapon'. It was while I was doing that, that I saw my next victim... John and Michelle's KFC cashier! (sneaky I know) Before they could think twice, I pulled out my tract and passed it to the cashier! The quick-draw takes another victim! Lesson learnt: Take your opportunities before opportunistic people take them for you!

Apologies to Truc and the Tans! Be quicker next time! :D
