a Blessing

The video says it all.
To Nick Vujicic, you never fail making me feel how beautiful life is. You are indeed an inspiration to not only me but to all - You made me realized the true meaning of existence. We need not to have a perfect eyes, perfect face nor perfect body to be happy in life, we just need to appreciate what life's throwing upon us, to LOVE life in all circumstances. And above all, thank God for each day that we got the chance to enjoy life - to wake up another morning, to be able breathe, to communicate, to travel and be amazed with the wonders of creation, that that is quite enough to say 'I am blessed'.

Thanks be to God!

An Email: MARRIAGE

 .:Got this from e-mail, a friend of mine sent this on my Inbox:.
.:A short story to Ponder:.

When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and

said, I've got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly.

Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.

Suddenly I didn't know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know

what I was thinking. I want a divorce.. I raised the topic calmly.

She didn't seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly,

Why?

Footprints in the Sand

I just want to share this wonderful poem

-that always..it always does..

-gives me hope in every challenges and trials

-I face on my Journey.

May it also inspire you as you travel your way.

God Bless!

One night a man had a dream.

He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord.

Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.

For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand;

one belonged to him and the other to the LORD.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him,

he looked back at the footprints in the sand.

He noticed that many times along the path of his life

there was only one set of footprints.

He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest

and saddest time in his life.

This really bothered him and he questioned the LORD about it.

"LORD, you said that once I decided to follow you,

you'd walk with me all the way.

But I have noticed that during the most troublesome

times in my life, there is only one set of footprints.

I don't understand why when I needed you most

you would leave me."

The LORD replied,

"My son, my precious child,

I love you and I would never leave you.

During your times of trials and suffering,

when you see only one set of footprints,

it was then that I carried you."

Lent: Cross, an accepted suffering

Another year had passed since the last time I've shared my own personal "Lenten" reflection on this site. Too many events had happened in between --- death of my father-in-law, cancellation of wedding reservations, re-assessing and re-booking, job transfer of my husband, government issues, calamities and there also, our wedding but that was just the outer part of it,  mainly the preface if we are to compare it with a book.  In fact, 'tis just a tiny dot, visible only thru what scientist calls a microscope.What covers a vast or large area in one's life is the experience, how this certain event has molded us, has re-formed us. Did we ever stop and for a moment reflected upon these events? Or even ask ourselves as to why and what's the purpose of it?
