The Fifth Mountain

I have not forget how I when to get my hand on this book.
First a friend recommended it. "ok, might be a good book, hmmm"
Then another friend recommended it. hmmm, should be good.



One morning, I saw a lady reading it. What really caught my attention was, she's crying...



And So, i read that book in a night... and i cried too....
Its a very simple story, of a man struggles. The struggles that we all face in life...





This sadness you read in my eyes is part of my story.

Only a small part that will last but a few days.

Tomorrow, when I depart for Jerusalem, it will not have the

strength it had before, and little by little it will disappear.

Sadness does not last forever when we walk in the direction of that which we always desired."


Is it always necessary to leave?"



"It's always necessary to know when a stage of one's life has ended.

If you stubbornly cling to it after the need has passed,

you lose the joy and meaning of the rest.

And you risk being shaken to your senses by God."




"The Lord is stern."



"Only with those He has chosen."

Ecclesiastes 3
A Time for Everything


1 There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:

2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,

3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,

4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,

5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,

6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,

7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,

8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.

听过五月天的新歌了吗？。。。







作詞：阿信 作曲：阿信


最怕空氣突然安靜 最怕朋友突然的關心

最怕回憶 突然翻滾絞痛著不平息 最怕突然 聽到你的消息

想念如果會有聲音 不願那是悲傷的哭泣

事到如今 終於讓自己屬於我自己 只剩眼淚 還騙不過自己



突然好想你 你會在哪裡 過得快樂或委屈

突然好想你 突然鋒利的回憶 突然模糊的眼睛



我們像一首最美麗的歌曲 變成兩部悲傷的電影

為什麼你 帶我走過最難忘的旅行 然後留下 最痛的紀念品



我們 那麼甜那麼美那麼相信 那麼瘋那麼熱烈的曾經

為何我們還是要奔向各自的幸福和遺憾中老去



突然好想你 你會在哪裡 過得快樂或委屈

突然好想你 突然鋒利的回憶 突然模糊的眼睛



最怕空氣突然安靜 最怕朋友突然的關心

最怕回憶 突然翻滾絞痛著不平息 最怕突然 聽到你的消息

最怕此生 已經決心自己過沒有你 卻又突然 聽到你的消息

珍惜一切 就算沒有擁有

[稻 香] 詞：周杰倫 曲：周杰倫


對這個世界如果你有太多的抱怨

跌倒了就不敢繼續往前走

為什麼人要這麼的脆弱 墮落

請你打開電視看看

多少人為生命在努力勇敢的走下去

我們是不是該知足

珍惜一切 就算沒有擁有




還記得你說家是唯一的城堡 隨著稻香河流繼續奔跑

微微笑 小時候的夢我知道

不要哭讓螢火蟲帶著你逃跑 鄉間的歌謠永遠的依靠

回家吧 回到最初的美好





不要這麼容易就想放棄 就像我說的

追不到的夢想 換個夢不就得了

為自己的人生鮮艷上色 先把愛塗上喜歡的顏色

笑一個吧 功成名就不是目的

讓自己快樂快樂這才叫做意義

童年的紙飛機 現在終於飛回我手裡

所謂的那快樂 赤腳在田裡追蜻蜓追到累了

偷摘水果被蜜蜂給叮到怕了 誰在偷笑呢

我靠著稻草人吹著風唱著歌睡著了

哦 哦 午後吉它在蟲鳴中更清脆

哦 哦 陽光灑在路上就不怕心碎

珍惜一切 就算沒有擁有



還記得你說家是唯一的城堡 隨著稻香河流繼續奔跑

微微笑 小時候的夢我知道

不要哭讓螢火蟲帶著你逃跑 鄉間的歌謠永遠的依靠

回家吧 回到最初的美好

[歌詞] 周杰倫-說好的幸福呢
作詞：方文山 作曲：周杰倫


你的回話凌亂著 在這個時刻
我想起噴泉旁的白鴿 甜蜜散落了
情緒莫名的拉扯 我還愛你呢
而你斷斷續續唱著歌 假裝沒事了

時間過了 走了 愛情面臨選擇
你冷了 倦了 我哭了
離開時的不快樂 你用卡片手寫著
有些愛只給到這 真的痛了

怎麼了 你累了 說好的 幸福呢
我懂了 不說了 愛淡了 夢遠了
開心與不開心一一細數著 你再不捨
那些愛過的感覺都太深刻 我都還記得

你不等了 說好的 幸福呢
我錯了 淚乾了 放手了 後悔了
只是回憶的音樂盒還旋轉著 要怎麼停呢

你的回話凌亂著 在這個時刻
我想起噴泉旁的白鴿 甜蜜散落了
情緒莫名的拉扯 我還愛你呢
而你斷斷續續唱著歌 假裝沒事了

時間過了 走了 愛情面臨選擇
你冷了 倦了 我哭了
離開時的不快樂 你用卡片手寫著
有些愛只給到這 真的痛了

怎麼了 你累了 說好的 幸福呢
我懂了 不說了 愛淡了 夢遠了
開心與不開心一一細數著 你再不捨
那些愛過的感覺都太深刻 我都還記得

你不等了 說好的 幸福呢
我錯了 淚乾了 放手了 後悔了
只是回憶的音樂盒還旋轉著 要怎麼停呢

怎麼了 你累了 說好的 幸福呢
我懂了 不說了 愛淡了 夢遠了 我都還記得

你不等了 說好的 幸福呢
我錯了 淚乾了 放手了 後悔了
只是回憶的音樂盒還旋轉著 要怎麼停呢

Can I Have This Dance - High School Musical Cast; Zac Efron; Vanessa Hudgens



Take my hand, take a breath
Pull me close and take one step
Keep your eyes locked on mine,
And let the music be your guide.


Won't you promise me (now won't you promise me, that you'll never forget)
We'll keep dancing (to keep dancing) wherever we go next


It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)
Can I have this dance


Take my hand, I'll take the lead
And every turn will be safe with me
Don't be afraid, afraid to fall
You know I'll catch you threw it all


And you can't keep us apart (even a thousand miles, can't keep us apart)
'Cause my heart is (cause my heart is) wherever you are


It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)
Can I have this dance


Oh no mountains too high enough, oceans too wide
'Cause together or not, our dance won't stop
Let it rain, let it pour
What we have is worth fighting for
You know I believe, that we were meant to be


It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you (like you)
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do (way we do)
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)
Can I have this dance

Can I have this dance
Can I have this dance

would you take my hand again

will the only half be reduce to ash? or will it be make whole?

THE LEADERSHIP FILES

Past, Present and Future

Quote - 'Untutored courage is useless in the face of educated' bullets'. George S.Patton Jr.

You're going to love this;


We all need to deal with three realms.

The past, the present and the future.

We can't escape the past by trying to live in the future.

We need to deal with the past first. Then the present, then the future.

Unresolved offences, unconfessed sins, unpaid bills, unsaid apologies, unwritten letters will torpedo both our present and future.

Then we need to secure our present - create patterns and systems to live by, organise work and play - establish priorities and commitments.

Our foundation is solid.



Now we can dream, pray, prepare, plan and stategize for the future.

知足 - 五月天


怎麼去擁有　一道彩虹　
怎麼去擁抱　一夏天的風
天上的星星　笑地上的人　總是不能懂　不能覺得足夠

如果我愛上　你的笑容　要怎麼收藏　要怎麼擁有
如果你快樂　不是為我　會不會放手　其實才是擁有

當一陣風吹來　風箏飛上天空　
為了你而祈禱　而祝福　而感動
終於你身影　消失在　人海盡頭　
才發現　笑著哭　最痛

那天你和我　那個山丘　那樣的唱著　那一年的歌
那樣的回憶　那麼足夠　足夠我天天　都品嚐著寂寞

當一陣風吹來　風箏飛上天空　
為了你而祈禱　而祝福　而感動
終於你身影　消失在　人海盡頭　
才發現　笑著哭　最痛

當一陣風吹來　風箏飛上天空　
為了你而祈禱　而祝福　而感動
終於你身影　消失在　人海盡頭　
才發現　笑著哭　最痛

如果我愛上　你的笑容　要怎麼收藏　要怎麼擁有
如果你快樂　再不是為我　會不會放手　其實才是擁有

知足的快樂　叫我忍受心痛
知足的快樂　叫我忍受心痛

llover a cántaros

Carrying on with life is not easy. I get busy. Trying to pack my life away.
But in the end, there's always the emptiness.

Somehow there's your trace in the things im doing.
your shadow in the places im going.
your smell in the crowd and i just cant help looking around to spot u.



i miss you

LEVEL 5

Level 5 leaders channel their ego needs away from themselves and into the larger goal of building a great company.

It's not that Level 5 leaders have no ego or self-interest.

Indeed, they are incredibly ambitious-but their ambition is first and foremost for the institution, not themselves.


- Jim Collins, Good to Great

“If a man wishes to be sure of the road he treads on, he must close his eyes and walk in the dark.”

CAR WASHING

Like every sheltered carpark, there's 2 washing bays.
This guy, who's finished with his, simply just walk away.

A hour later, still no sign of him returning to drive his car to a proper parking lot. During this hour, cars just drove pass taking a peek at whether there's space for washing. Unfortunately none. Its doesnt cost anything just to be a lil considerate. To show a lil more care. A lil more love.

Had my tee wet with sweat after im done with the washing with my dad.
My dad. He's a quiet man. Occassionally jokes abit. But he never failed to be there.
Like any other traditional chinese dad, he's strict with us kids (yap. no matter how old you are, you are still kids in your parents eyes =) ). Yet like any other dad, you find that you dont really know what he's thinking, he's thoughts, he's idea.
But you know one thing for sure, no matter what, he's always there. You can always call on him when there's a need. =) That's my dad.

Recently i read a interesting article. It said that we, human tends to find our sponse with character or look similar to our parents. i.e. If you a girl, your sponse resemble your dad in some ways; if you a guy, your wife resemble your mum in certain ways. I guess there's some true to this, since most of us grow up with our parents. Their characters do rub on us alot even if we never notice. =)


Anyway, dont feel bored when you need to clean the house, wash the car with your parents. Its a way to bond =)

KL Office

Its not good when you find yourself getting familar in a foreign place.
That's happened to me.

When Love Is Not Enough

http://www.canville.net/malone/lovenotenough.html

I happened to wonder upon this site. Which I must said that i agreed with the author.

As quoted: “Love doesn’t just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread, remade all the time, made new…, all the time, made new…”

I have blind spots and lots of them.
I going TO change. Its for my own good. For my loves ones.

To be a better man~

两只恋人

傻傻两个人
许过一个愿

当时星星眨着眼
看起来并不远

为你长翅飞
为你被风吹

请你千万要等我
带幸福来给你的那一天

春天散步夏天看海秋天数落叶
（我们）一直没有烦恼
一直没有争吵
让 每天像糖一样甜

冬天飘雪我是棉被温暖你的夜
一直在你身边
一直爱到永远
你 就负责靠着我的肩


贴着你的脸
拍一张照片

世界是很复杂的
要靠我近一点

但愿你每天
幸福又安全

两只恋人手牵手
谁也不用再跑给谁去追

How To Be A Gentleman

By Brian Christensen & Daniel McLean


When you hear the word “gentleman” it brings to mind several characteristics and qualities that would distinguish it from the word “man.” Man is a more general classification of gender, where as gentleman, separates itself as a specific type of man.


There’s the traditional gentleman. We’ve all heard that a gentleman opens a door for a lady. He also pulls out her chair when she sits down for a nice meal. A gentleman is polite. He never belches in front of a lady, and on the occasion that one slips past, always excuses himself. A gentleman always says thank you and please, and is attentive to all conversations. These are all the things that your grandmother taught you to do.

These are the courtesies that we dust off on prom, or when we take that special someone out for an elegant evening. But, being a gentleman is more than just opening the door for a young lady when you take her out on a date. Being a gentleman is a way of life. A gentleman exhibits exceptional qualities and character within himself and in his interaction with others. These traits closely resemble the character of our Master, Jesus Christ. Jesus is the perfect man and gentleman!

We all fall short of this perfect model, but He’s always there to show us the path. It’s up to all of us to walk it. If you want to be loved, you have to be lovable. Gentleness is love in action. Being considerate, meeting the needs of others, allowing for another person to talk and being willing to learn and grow are essential traits for both men and women. James 3:17,18 tells us that the wisdom from God is pure, peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. James goes on to say, “the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace and by those who make peace.” Being a gentleman is also being genuine and paying attention to detail.

A man can be a gentleman by doing things for other people such as helping church members move, or painting their house. Helping a co-worker with a task is another good way to help someone. Sometimes people just need to talk. One of the best ways to be a gentleman is to have a shoulder for someone to cry on. We all have problems in life that we need to talk about with someone else. It’s important to be there for a friend or family member when something is bothering them.

A lot of the time people will confide small things with you. Quite often, these are just the surface thoughts of a much bigger issue. Being a gentleman is being there to listen to anyone when they have these problems. It could be a church member, a family member, friend, or co-worker. No matter who it is, it’s important to listen to them. You don’t really even have to have a solution to their problem. It’s a healing process just to vent, and part of being a Christian and a gentleman is to listen.


A gentleman is not overly concerned with himself. We all have our own problems and issues to deal with, but part of the mission that Christ left with us is to love one another. That’s a difficult thing to do sometimes. When someone cuts us off, our first thought is probably not, “Well, he’s just having a bad day and has other problems.” We usually respond with a long train of explicatives and a not so Christian gesture. When you have a reaction like that, stop to think about how many times you might have done that to someone else.

James 3:1-16 shows us that no one, except Jesus, is perfect. We all stumble and must watch ourselves carefully to control the whole body. Even the smallest of things can affect everyone. James uses examples of a horse’s bit and the rudder of a ship. These items are very small in comparison to the larger, powerful objects they affect and control. He then explains how our tongue is a small member that can boast great things and defile the whole body. Our tongue can be like a small match that can burn down a vast forest. It can set a course for disaster and be fueled by Satan. We simply cannot bless our God and curse men out of the same mouth! “Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom” (James 3:13).

Being a gentleman is more than holding a door open, or giving flowers to someone. These actions are good, however, the actions of a gentleman go much further and deeper. To be a true gentleman, we must start by studying and understanding the life and character of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. When we allow God’s wisdom to mold and shape our character, we then become more like Christ and exhibit true love in our daily life and relationships. Being a gentleman is more than just talk. It is love in action.


love in action. i need more action

HEART OF A CHILD

"A child can always teach an adult three things:
To be happy for no reason.
To always be busy with something.
And to know how to demand with all his might that which he desires."

Having the heart of a child means: child-like
Its not childish but a mind marked by innocence, trust, and ingenuousness.
A mind that's playful, open, unrestrained by the inner voice of reason and know no fear of failure.

Babies are cute. =)
For some reason, most babies love me.
Whenever one passesby, they will give me a big smile.

In Alison Gopnik's Scientist in the Crib, she stated that:
"Babies are just plain smarter than we are, at least if being smart means being able to learn something new.... They think, draw conclusions, make predictions, look for explanations and even do experiments….

Tarots Cards Reading

Well, I get a free reading for my Bday.
So i tried it for fun.

Here's the results:

-----------------------------------


Self: Knight of Coins



Cultivate your investments using good timing and skillful management; protect your interests.

The card in the Self position reveals aspects of how you perceive yourself right now.

The Knight of Coins (in some decks, The Prince) in this position portrays you as someone who is responsible, patient, and of practical service. You realize that with right timing and proper attention, wise investments multiply, like a field which has been cultivated.

This does not have to do with greed or even the profit motive as we think of it now. Your contribution is like that of the farmer who sows a field of grain for the sake of the entire community. Your service does not stop there, however. The crop must be allowed to grow unmolested by predators or thieves. That's another reason we need to summon forth the stalwart character inside of us who can be trusted to protect and defend the community and its harvest. This card implies generous service of all types.



Situation: Two of Swords

Resist any impulse to judge or blame others, or to adopt an us versus them attitude. Stay open to new information.

The card that lands in the Situation position refers to social or circumstantial factors which could be affecting your life at this time.

With the Two of Swords in this position, people around you may be splitting into separate camps, engaging in disputes, and jumping to judgmental conclusions. This is not an encouraging trend. The result could be a division between people that creates a polarized situation. If you want to improve things, be sure to stay clear of taking any one's side.



Challenges/ Opportunities: The World

You have mastered the elements of your life to the degree that success is a regular occurrence.

The card that lands in the Challenges/Opportunities position refers to ways that you can turn obstacles into stepping stones.

The World in this position challenges you to maintain a dynamic balance between inner pressures and outer circumstances, your male side and your female side, innocence and wisdom, action and response. You have grown into your potential. It's wonderful to find yourself at the center of the universe, in the right place at the right time.



Foundation: The Star

You've known someone who has discovered and is living out her or his purpose.

The card in the Foundation position points to influences from your personal history, your roots and background.

The Star in this position suggests that you were impressed by someone who established right livelihood and skillful relationships. This is not to imply that this person was given credit by society or was paid well. But he or she showed you what a fulfilled human being is like.



Recent Past: Ten of Cups

Something that used to hurt you and hold you back has been healed; you have arrived at a new level.

The card in the Recent Past position refers to events that are just departing, recently influential but now diminishing in power.

With the Ten of Cups in your recent past, you have just completed an extended exercise of self-discipline, intense focus and cooperative teamwork. These labors have brought you to a new level of self-esteem, usefulness and enthusiastic service in your life.

Even when you are feeling down, you no longer slide back into the same ruts. Challenges no longer deter you -- you don't despair or feel abandoned. Instead, you know how to refill your cup from the inside and let it overflow, becoming an inspiration for others. Having seen positive results and the impact of your efforts, you can now hold yourself in higher esteem. Take your advancement to heart. With it you can operate from a stronger position of strength and creativity than you could before.



Higher Power: The Emperor

Step into a leadership role with confidence; you are the right person for the endeavor.

The card in the Higher Power position reflects the broader perspective and influence of your conscience, Guardian Angel, inner wisdom.

When the Emperor comes up in this position, you are being called to leadership. Put shyness and inhibitions aside, because there simply is no one else who can better organize others to accomplish an important task right now.

The Emperor is interested in action and achievement. He wants to activate change; he wants to see results. You are being called upon to serve as an authority, a leader. Be assured that this is not a mistake -- you are the right person at the right time. Accept this as fact, take up the reins of responsibility and get to work!



Near Future: Eight of Coins

Continue to cultivate your mastery and you will reap abundant success.

The card in the Near Future position indicates which way the wind is blowing with regard to your situation. If you follow the Advice card, however, you can improve on or neutralize tendencies.

With the Eight of Coins in this position, you are gearing up to design and render more sophisticated projects. Everything is in place for great success as long as you persevere. Your artistic and intellectual development are evolving in an upward spiral.

Continue to refine your skills. Master your craft, building your reputation and attracting new projects, and you will be richly rewarded. Stay on track.



Blocks & Inhibitions: The Tower

Sometimes the cost of self-control is simply too high.

The card in the Blocks position points to self-undermining tendencies, areas where you could be in denial, where you could get stuck -- unless you examine yourself and make some corrections.

When the Tower appears in this position, you are suppressing a tremendous emotional charge and it is taking a toll on your body. This lightning bolt, instead of being released, finding its target, getting grounded and spending itself, is trapped within your body, zapping your internal organs and nervous system.

Consider whether you are suppressing a truth that should be acknowledged, spoken and acted upon. Taking those steps will set loose the lightning that creates permanent change. Allow your desperate desire to be on the other side of this issue to overcome the fear of invoking change. The energy is simply too intense to contain.



Allies: The Hierophant

Centuries of knowledge and wisdom are available to you.

The card in the Allies position points to people who can be supportive or helpful to you at this time.

In this position, the Hierophant points to a long-standing tradition of highly refined craftsmanship that you can tap into and draw inspiration from. It would behoove you and speed up your project if you would allow a Hierophant, a master of the Mysteries, to advise you.

The Hierophant has acquired direct knowledge by going to the heart of an issue and experiencing it. If you have a problem to solve, cast aside your pride. Determine who has the key to the situation and how you can befriend them, win their confidence and learn at their knee what you need to know. This Hierophant knows the direct path, the exact formula, the perfect key to the situation.



Advice: Judgment

Let go of your past. The future welcomes you with a bounty of growth and change.

The card in the Advice position suggests a course of action which will harmonize what you want with what is currently possible.

Judgment in this position advises that you allow yourself to grow, transform and release hidden potentials within yourself. Divest yourself of fruitless endeavors without neglecting your duties. At the same time, invest your energies in new growth.

It's not necessary to reject others, but refuse to be manipulated by those who cry foul. This process isn't about them anyway. It is about you and the desire you feel to change your life and become a more complete person. Trust your impulses and allow this remarkable awakening to happen.



Long-term Potential: The Chariot

Use many vehicles of communication to assemble a coalition.

The card in the Long-term Potential position points to unknowns still taking shape. It is the "wild card" yet to be played.

With the Chariot in this position, there is long term potential to enlarge your scope of influence. As you expand the realm in which you move, you will more freely share your ideas and ideals and meet like-minded souls.

Find the energy to travel, make connections and use technology to network. Over time your enthusiasm for seeking new stimulation is bound to create a personal empire. Don't rush the process. Take time to savor each contact. Out of these you will be able to weave a web of teammates. Together you are going to change your world.

“As a man thinketh in his heart, so he is.”

[ As a Man Thinketh - James Allen ]

1. A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts.

2. Cherish your visions. Cherish your ideals. Cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will grow all delightful conditions, all heavenly environment, of these, if you but remain true to them your world will at last be built.

3. The soul attracts that which it secretly harbors, that which it loves, and also that which it fears. It reaches the height of its cherished aspirations. It falls to the level of its unchastened desires - and circumstances are the means by which the soul receives its own.

4. Every action and feeling is preceded by a thought.

5. Right thinking begins with the words we say to ourselves.

6. If anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things.

MOMENTS

GRANDPA

A quiet figure. Loving and caring.
My mum use to tell me when i was young, my grandpa will always carry me and when downstair.
Then he will meet up with my grandma to help carry the vege baskets.
He never spoke much but choose to show his love thru his action.
He's always there for my grandma.

Whenever, my grandma wants to visit us, he will acompany her.
Whenever, my grandma get off the car, he will help her down.
Whenever, my grandma fall sick, he will nag at her to take her medi.
He's always there, choosing to give; to love; to care.

He left a deep imprint in all of us: giving, without holding back
I know I'd never seen grandma cry in all my twenty-five years;
Till today, her eyes filled up with tears.

DOTS of Thoughts and Fillings

why chao shao bao cry more than man tou during the movie session?


cos chao shao bao got 'filling' ah~

---------------------------------------------

why da bao cry louder than chao shao bao during the movie session?

becos da bao got more 'filling' ah~

---------------------------------------------


Met up with my friend lately. The key? A financial planner.
I wont blame her for not preparing me well egh for the
lunch-cum-catchup-cum-infogathering-cum-selling session.

Firstly she dish out a form to let me fill it in.
Figures are required...and hmm i gave estimated figures since i wasnt prepared.

2nd meet up, she dish out more forms, introducing to certain policies that
i indicated as my primary goal in the form i filled in during the first meet up.
BUT its based on my estimated figures i given to her.

End up if i took up both policies i can eat grass every month LOL!
alright. alrite. It's what i wanted but i cant help feeling disappointed at how 'well' i get prepared.

well well, who's more interested in your own money than yourself?

I'll go with my plans *big big Grinz*

---------------------------------------------

You know, not every one (yes some of u out there like me =) ) experienced having only 2 bucks in your wallets and undraw-able mighty-left-over 10 bucks in your saving account.

And all you could think of is: what im going to do with the 2 bucks.
i still have tmw lunch, the next next day lunch, dinner and all the lunch for the remaining weeks.........

You end up skipping some of the classes for part-time job. You worked day and night during the everybody-resting-you-working holidays. well i wont said its bad cos i did really enjoy working =) There's always bounce to be great pple around my working place that keep me going. =)

Sometimes i do envious those that could just concentrate on studying during the term and enjoying themselves during the holidays. Itznt that what a sch-ling should do? come on we are still young (and im still am ^^)

But WE dont get to choose situation. Situation chooses us.
We grow up faster than the rest.
We mature faster than the rest
We worried more than the rest.
We have more white hairs than the rest. (*cover* =x)

But the main points is we see the world more than the rest.
We excel in the school of life.
We understand what our heart desire.
We understand that giving is more impt that taking.
We undserstand that the world dont revo around a single identity.
But a single identity could unity the pple and it is the WE that spin the world.

Love must be learned, and learned again; there is no end to it.

See, i told you im young. Im still learning =)
and im going ALL OUT without holding back! *BIG BIG GRINZ"


---------------------------------------------

* i have some 'great' plans in mind. If you happened to be one of my partner-in-crime,
let do these behind the scenes *GRINZ*

MISSING YOU

I know im been silly. Its just only a day++ more.
But I just cant control the emotion. Its so intense.

My blog song now synch to my mood.

How long will I be waiting,
To be with you again (I know its only a day, sigh)
Gonna tell you that I love you, (Yes, i really do)
In the best way that I can.
I can't take a day without you here, (You know that i miss you, dear)
You're the light that makes my darkness disappear.

RUNNING

To reach the goal we must at times run with the wind,
other times, against it;
But we must certainly run, not walk, nor stand still.

At time we reach a point when we feel that things are well balanced.
Or so it seems to us in our tiny viewing angle.

A friend have this saying: when will the time be, when we are most balanced?
The answer came rather odd: When we are been carried in our coffin by 4 person.

It do make some sense after several thoughts. Most of the time we are rushing from one point to another point; From one stage of life to another. And often, we took things for granted. The air that we breathe. The food that we eat. The care that our families give. The loves that our close one showers.

Balance. It seems like a easy word. B.a.l.a.n.c.e. Just a 7 letters word.
But beneath it, its as deep as an iceberg.


O well, took a good look at myself in the mirror and i decided that im way too thin.
Especially these few months which I keep failing sick. arhhh >.<
Decided that I, shall took on a more serious attitude about my health. my life. and my loves one.

continue to feed me fei fei =x

Im only going to get greater and greater!




The body may be weak. But the heart is strong...

THE LEADERSHIP FILES - RESTING


Quote - 'Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.' - Mark 6:31


You're going to love this;



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Rest comes in a deserted place. Where no people are.

This is immensely difficult for a leader;

- to come aside from their work,
- to locate in a deserted place alone,
- to remain there for a while,
- to rest, that is to stop working,

However, this is an art that must be mastered, otherwise the leader's faculties will wear out.

They will render themselves useless.

Rest adds up to recovery, creativeness, energy.

Find a deserted place, go there and do nothing.

A miracle will happen!





Stepping out with you,
PHIL PRINGLE

TEARS

A little boy asked his mother, "Why are you crying?" "Because I'm a woman," she told him.

"I don't understand," he said. His Mom just hugged him and said, "And you never will."

Later the little boy asked his father, "Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?"

"All women cry for no reason," was all his dad could say.

The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why women cry.

Finally he put in a call to God. When God got on the phone, he asked, "God, why do women cry so easily?"

God said:

"When I made the woman she had to be special.

I made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world, gentle enough to give comfort.

I gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times comes from her children.

I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up, and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complaining.

I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances, even when her child has hurt her very badly.

I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart.

I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, but sometimes tests her strengths and her resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly.

And finally, I gave her a tear to shed. This is hers exclusively to use whenever it is needed."

"You see my son," said God, "the beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair.

The beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart - the place where love resides."

I guess not only woman needs to shed but man too. Hang in there friend.
There’s always good in every bad; A reason for every pain.

HEALTH

First there's cough and sore throat. Then folo by their good friend fever.
2 days later, a distant relative call diarrhoea came visiting.

That's not all. Diarrhoea sisters, stomach gas and stomach pain came squeezing in.

There. I was accompanied by all these sudden visiters for 2 weeks.
arrhhh~ you should check out the packets of tablets i took. yucks.

Well, well. Its good to feel healthy again. So friends take care! dont fall sick.
its not worth it. =)

BE HAPPY

Always see the goodness in this world,
do your part in helping those less fortunate,
walk hand in hand with those of less talent,
follow those of more knowledge, and
be an equal with those who are different...

Find your special purpose in this world full of choices
and help lead those who stray.

Become your own individual -
set yourself apart from those who are the same.

Have the self-confidence to say no
when it is necessary and
the strength to stand alone.

Give yourself the approval to love and respect everything that you are and
will become...

Reap the fruits of your talents,
walk with pride down the road of life,
be humble in your successes,
and share in the praises and joy of others.

Most of all, be happy.
For when you are happy,
you have the key that open all of the world's doors to you.

- Jackie Olson

FIFTH MOUNTAIN

"It was part of your apprenticeship. WHen a man journeys toward his destiny, often he is obliged to change paths. At other times, the forces around him are too powerful and he is compelled to lay aside his courage and yield. All this is part of the apprenticeship."

Elijah listened attentively to what his soul was saying.
"But no one can lose sight of what he desires. Even if there are moments when he believes the world and the others are stronger. The secret is this: do not surrender."

Coffee?

Its 6.30am in the morning *yawn* and i remembered i slept at 12+
System still down... no thanks to LGA. and no thanks to Qala.
seems like we may be jumping from one bad to another. *sigh*

Coffee anyone?

UPDATE?

its work. work. work. Muhahaa Boss(Sarah) will understand.
Well, the good things is, I pretty much like what im doing. So yea!
Its really starting to be more of a hobby than work *Grinz*
*NOTE: Only when things are working fine and not breaking down*

Just finished Server room migration last week end. Thurs, Friday (Yes its a holiday I know), Sat, Sun. *Phew* Everything turn up pretty fine except for some switch no connection. Router no connection. But pretty we got them fix. One HP server die on me =.=

That took up alot of my time trying get another server running the application. *cheers to the whole Financial department for not pressuring me on the server*
On a side note, maybe they should thanks me since they cant work on the whole mon *grinz* Joking! =p

Boss (Current company) said, you learn the most when things break, but of cos we rather not have it *Grinz* True true. Like any other incident, even our day to day life. Only when things are not working, we break down and there *bingo!* we see everything from a new angle. We pick ourselves up. We took on a new strength. We become stronger! *beam*


Pretty much about work huh? Er life, hmmmm pretty much the same. Brought a bike-a-bicycle. ^^ haha. Just something to get myself to workout cos i pretty dislike running.

Hope dear quickly recover. Must ren ok? Recover then u can eat anything. Now must control. control. And control =)



thats abt all~ tata pple

THE LEADERSHIP FILES

GATHERING
Quote - Isa 40:11 ...he will gather



Hi, I'm Phil Pringle

You're going to love this;


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Successful leaders identify what gathers or scatters people; customers, clients, staff, congregation and leaders in the organisation.

People gather to light, fire, beauty, sweet fragrance, excitement, success, celebration, where they are loved, respected, welcomed and recognized; laughter, vision, bold leadership, energy, high skill, courage, the new, the clever, the excitingly different, the well done, gifts, generosity and mercy.

People are scattered from rudeness, coldness, darkness, boredom, ugliness, bad odors, chaos, failure, depression and judgment.

Which list are you?



Stepping out with you,
Phil Pringle

A Year

A year have passed. Yet most of us still drift in the memories.
Many have come and left their messages behind.....'I miss you, kitty'
