The Moment

2 years ago...
a chubby little boy


There is this boy whose father will
accompany him to wait for his
bus to pick him up to school...
i told myself...what a loving dad...
i told myself...how children are being
spoilt these days...


2 years after...
one day


this boy had grown up...
no longer the chubby boy i used to see
the father accompanied him still
to wait for the bus...
but today...i saw that he had a
younger brother...


6am in the morning...the moment


his dad and his younger brother was
watching behind the gate...
he was sitting outside the gate...
his brother was searching for him...
their eyes met..his younger brother..
flashed a cheeky smiled waved at his brother...
he rushed to his brother and sat beside him...
his brother put his arm around his waist
afraid that he will fall...


the younger brother leaning on his brother...
flashed another smile...
i felt so warm...i felt so touched...
to be able to see such bond...
i have a close relationship with my brother
we had gotten close thru the years...
as we grew up..
its amazing to see kids bond at such
a young age,
normally they tend to fight for
toys and attention...
the boy..certainly not a spoilt brat...
but a loving brother,
the younger brother..adores his brother
the parents..certainly have taught them well..
Signing off,
with sweet thoughts

Lucky - Jason Mraz ft Colbie Caillat


Do you hear me, I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed Lucky to be coming home someday

The Baby Ant

Lost and alone
Yearning to go home
Yearning for company
So tiny yet so strong
And it is never afraid
She keeps going on finding the way home
Crawling on my skin
Crawling on my paper
I put her down on the ground
And she still came back up
All she wants is to go home
It never stops her even if she needs to start from zero
I put her on the wall
She just kept crawling up
Without fear. Without doubt.
And then she is gone
I just hope she finds her way home
I’m sure she will be home
Because I saw her mama waiting on the wall.

Adore and Love?

What is the difference between
"Adore" and "Love"?
definition of the dictionary:
adore - to regard with loving
admiration and devotion
love - intense feeling of affection


does it mean being adored is
more than being loved?
well it could be otherwise,
WHY is it hard for someone to say
I Love You?
I will settle for "being adored"
as something which means more.
I adore you too!
Am i living in an illusion of love and adoration
which i believe its true?
I know dear, i m over analysing it again~haha
I chose this path and i will be brave to
face whatever comes..
For now i will patient and wait...
I will wait for you..
and i will be home again...

choosing to think otherwise!
am i trying to be funny?i think so too...

Entwine


There are many people we meet in life...
In school, on the road, shops...
Introduced by friends, met by accidents...
acquaintances...
Some you just meet at crossroads
and you will never see them again...
Some disappear and come back
after some time...
Some stays beside for you forever,
some you really hope they will stay,
but the hope never came...
Some you take for granted...
I do miss them...
I do think of them often...
I always wonder how are they doing...
I wish you all the best!
Friends are a gift, friends are special...
Thank you for being a part of my life,
whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.

Bon Voyage...moving on

what if?

In life there is a lot of what if...

what if i have never met you?
would i be happier?
would i be lonelier?

what if i had chose to study abroad?
or to venture into another line?
would i be more sucessful?

what if i have chosen another path?
what if i made the other choice?
what if? what if?
there will never be an answer...

after a long thought and talk
through my journey back home
i decided to stop thinking "what if"
i remembered the poem "the road not taken"
which i studied during high school
life leads us to many pathways
and pathways leads us to pathways...
there is no way back...
but to face whats coming up next...

i have to be brave
face my fears and future...
i want to live my dreams...

i want to be happy in life!

"the curious case of Benjamin Button"

After working 8 days of long working hours, i was starting to feel so
sick and tired. My good friend volunteered to accompany me to
mid valley...I wanted to cancel the plan,as i was very tired.
but i made it anyway...

It was so long ago since i went to watch a movie at the cineplex,
i think the last moviei watched was "Boltz"?haha...Anyway,
we contemplated on what to watch as myhectic schedule forbid me
to be updated. I made a call to a friend whom i know will be an expert
on this question as she is also the one who had made me a special movie
lover. In a half asleep mode she just said. Benjamin Button! Haha...
so there i go,with a lil doubt (i was tired i was afraid i will fall asleep)

It was a special movie. Long but certainly not the draggy type.
It was much more interesting than expected. Me and my friend was
amazed. The soundtrack was also great!Though the storyline seems
impossible, but i do agree that there is a kind of sickness which will
make u younger... but definitely not shrinking back into a boy or a baby~

After watching the movie, i felt that the workload and burden on my
shoulders were off. Watching people going thru their trial and turbulence
made me feel that how lucky i am to be in my life. What are my problems
and concerns compared to theirs?And what else could i possibly want
more? I should be thankful and treasure every moment!

My friend asked me, If i were the character "Daisy" how would i feel?
Life is such, as when you have it you do not treasure it.
When you don't have it you miss it, anyhow i suppose i would feel
pain but in a way contented that i had this man all of my life
loving me in his own way, protecting me and we had such great
moments together!

Signing off,
in great need of sleep...ZZzzz

"On my own - Whitney Houston"

"The turning point in the process of growing up is when you discover
the core strength within you that survives all hurt..." -Max LernerWhat does it mean by growing up?When are we considered as
grown ups?
I do wonder. Being financially able to supports itself?

or being able to think independently...
A famous proverb said "huo dao lao, xue dao lao",
you are still learning till the day you die.
It is a great experience to be able to experience growing.
Seeing yourself transform.
Looking back at the timeline of my life,
so much i have been through...made me the person

I am today. It's amazing to see myself transformed to a person
who is strong and positive
embracing what comes along.
Being able to be vulnerable and be flexible about things...

I am able to enjoy life now. I thank my parents giving me so much
exposure and people
around me, all the support and guidance have
made me such a happy person. I want my
positive energy to
inspire people around me, being happy in life matters to me more
than
anything else,and it all have to start with myself, loving myself.The turning point in the process of growing up is when you discover
the strength within
you surviving all hurts. When you finally realize
that nothing can hurt you and when
you will get to your dream no
matter what,you will find the light in every darkness, it is
easier said
than done,you will still have your dark moments, but it can be done!

I m proud to say i am able to do it! There are many dimensions in a
situation, its whether
you are willing to see it or not.Just as said by Kelly Poulous, we can change circumstances
if you can turn a threat and fear into an opportunity, there are so much
more possibility
you can find in life. Time is always ticking, it doesn't wait,
there is no time for us to
mourn why did it happen, its time for us to
wake up and realize where can we
go from here. what do i want to create?

So..from now on. I will ask myself, whats next?

Start spreading your love today, start creating. You make a difference!

To my fireflies, family, friends and colleagues...I wish you all well and
happy as always!
I am always here for you!

The Shoe Hunt

The Fiorucci Shoe Hunt

I have never been the sort of person who will spend money on shoes.
My shoes by far had been "economical"
Here I am at MidValley hunting for heels which cost RM150!
For heels which I in normal circumstances will not even look at.
It started off with my shopping date with my Aunt Sherene
looking for a suitable footwear as mine was hurting badly.
In the end, either my size was not available or size available but the stlye was not right!
Bad day huh? Add on to it my Aunt bought 3 pairs of sandals that day!
Here comes Fiorucci. She eyed on it during a visit in Penang.
I slipped into it. It felt nothing like the regular shoes!
I felt confident! Stable.
I suddenly understood that with great price comes great quality(for shoes only)
the heels are so much stronger and it fits in nicely.
it feels like home.
Thanks to my Aunt...making a difference..bringing comfort to my feet!haha
Too bad, it was already on sale for 50% as they are having stock clearance
and my size is not available.
The promoter promised to call if he could locate a pair of my size...
For now i will have to just wait!
A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.
It is
important to start with a confident and comfortable step! ;0)
