We exhibit tender hearts when we say to one another:
§ It's OK to have a bad day.
§ It's OK to be tired.
§ It's OK to admit your mistakes.
§ It's OK to say your marriage is failing.
§ It's OK to confess your addiction.
§ It's OK to share you're scared.
§ It's OK to want a day away from your toddler.
§ It's OK to grieve a loss.
§ It's OK to doubt, to be confused, to cry.
We exhibit humble minds when we say to one another:
§ It's OK to be happy you got a new car.
§ It's OK to celebrate that you got a huge raise.
§ It's OK to joyfully tell us you lost 17 pounds.
§ It's OK to say you won the sales competition.
§ It's OK to shout "Hallelujah!" because God's presence in your life is so good.
§ It's OK to tell us these things because we will be as happy for you as if these blessings had come to us, and we will join you in hearty celebration.

A Day to Remember
Today is indeed a day to remember. First, I found out that Heath Ledger, the young and promising actor, has just passed away. The cause is still unknown but that is not the point. It really hit me as I realised that life is so short and vulnerable. It got me seriously thinking of how precious life is and how much more I should make full use of it.
Today, I also confirmed my suspicion of a friend being gay. She has such high level of self awareness and love for others, plus she is also intelligent, and also a strong believer of the same faith as me. It was sad to know that she had chosen to go against the faith, as it is stated explicitly in the bible that gayism just isnt right. She has her reasons for thinking otherwise. I'd love to hear more about how she came to her conclusions rather than 'condemn' her straightaway. Anyhow, I just felt sad upon hearing this.
I was also in 2 appts with my mentor today, back to back at Novena. Although the 2 pple we met were present for different reasons, the message to them was similar. It was to be more self-aware. Firstly, know who we truly are, and secondly, to fully accept who we are. It sounds simple enough, but many pple dont even get pass the first part. Needless to say, many do not accept who they truly are, and therefore, lead flat, unfocused and unfulfilled lives. I was very enlightened by my mentor who did most of the talking. Respect, brudder!
SO ya, tis a very eventful day. Many things to ponder upon.
Well, the world may be a sad place, but it is truly inspiring to have pple like my mentor and other leaders ard to pull us up, to keep the hope and faith alive. I thank God for putting them in my midst. =)

"If you’re hurt, say it; if you’re angry, resolve it; if you’re in love; show it; if you’ve made a mistake, confess it; if you’re in need, reveal it.
· Don’t make others think they have to appear good – Accept each other in love, just as Christ accepted you – a jar of clay with chips and cracks.
· Magnify the glory of God – Magnify the glory of God by simply being you and letting him shine through. Magnify the glory of God in others, instead of magnifying their weaknesses."

I am using the computer, sitting directly opposite my sister right now. Our table is fixed in such a way that we have to sit face-to-face to each other. But the fact is we are both facing our computers 99.9% of the time rather than looking at each other. We dont even look at each other when we talk. Sometimes she is so unresponsive, I have to MSN her to get a response.
I think I was at that stage that she is in right now. I must have been very annoying. From the looks of it, I am also STILL very annoying according to her standards. My mom and I often talk about this sister of mine over dinner. The conclusion is always, to pray for her.
My plea to everyone reading this blog right now, that if I should become a person that I ought not to be, pls put it across to me kindly. We all need reminders every now and then. And if you love someone (not just mushy romantic love), we should always not be afraid to tell someone off, nicely of course. =)

I chanced upon a local artiste/celebrity's blog. Her english was ok, as expected. But somehow she seems rather airhead, judging from the things she blog about. THen again, who am I to judge. Most pple blog for the sake of blogging, or coz there just isnt anyone to talk to, really. I was wondering, why do celebrities blog? Why do they publish their blog for everyone else to see? hmm..
I think I blog when I am frustrated. Happy moments are less captured in my blogs. I just let them pass. When I have the time to reflect on things but have no appreciative audience to share it with, I'd blog it down too. SO there isnt a specific reason as to why I blog. Therefore, there is no consistency in my blog entries. HAHA. Revelation.
Many pple go thru life pretty much the same way too, isnt it? They just exist and and live for the sake of living. I was speaking to a prospect over lunch the other day. My qs to her was, 'what are u working for?' I realised I was either frustrated with or sad for her coz she simply did not know what she was working for. I think she didnt quite expect me to ask her that. I think that qs never even crossed her mind, ever!
I was speaking to another friend the same afternoon, and she told me she doesnt know what she wants in life. Well, at least for her, she is aware of it. Thank God because I think that is a very good start already. "Seek and you shall find", babe. =)
I think I got started with this whole thing abt thinking abt my life, because I was frustrated with myself. Then I asked many qs which I eventually realised that only I could find the answers to those qs. I thank God that my eyes were opened to ask those qs in the first place. The answers, so far, have been liberating. At least I know that I do not merely exist, I was not meant to merely exist, and I am working towards living the life I was made to live. Well, there will be no end to this lesson called Life. Better late than never. =)
HAVE A GREAT NEW WEEK AHEAD, EVERYONE!!!

Earth Status Report - 2006
If the population of the Earth was reduced to that of a small town with 100 people, it would look something like this:
57% Asians
21% Europeans
14% Americans (northern and southern)
8% Africans
52% women
48% men
70% coloured-skins
30% caucasians
89% heterosexuals
11% homosexuals
6 people would own 59% of the whole world wealth and all of them will be from the United States of America
80% would have bad living conditions
70% would be uneducated
50% underfed
1 would die
2 would be born
1 would have a computer
1 (only one) will have higher education
When you look at the world from this point of view, you can see there is a real need for solidarity,
understanding, patience and education.
Also think about the following -
This morning, if you woke up healthy, then you are happier than the 1 million people that will not survive next week.
If you never suffered a war,
the loneliness of the jail cell, the agony of torture,
or hunger,
you are happier than 500 million people in the world.
If you can enter into a place of worship without fear of jail or death, you are happier then 3 million people in the world.
If there is a food in your fridge,
you have shoes and clothes,
you have bed and a roof,
you are richer then 75% of the people in the world.
If you have a bank account, money in your wallet and some coins in the money-box,
you belong to the 8% of the people of the world who are well-to-do.
If you read this, you are three times blessed because:
1. somebody just thought of you.
2 . you don't belong to the 200 million people who cannot read.
3 . and... you have a computer!
As somebody once said:
' - Work as if you don't need money,
- Love as if you've never been hurt,
- Dance, as if nobody can see you,
- Sing, as if no one can hear,
- Live, as if the Earth was heaven.'
So start living & stop worrying, You don't know how BLESSED you are!

I am quite fed up with pleasing myself all the time. I think it is normal to many pple but I have, for my entire life, been focused on making sure that I am kept happy, satisfied, financially sufficient, well-liked, recognised by pple. And I must say I am really quite fed up of disappointing myself.
My job has always required me to care and love those that I serve, to focus on their needs and financial well-being. I have never been able to accomplish that because at the end of the day, I was always worried and thinking of my own problems. I was so focused on satisfying my own needs. Maybe I shld focus on others for a change and make life more meaningful and worth living.
This shall be a conscious effort and not frivilous talk.
GO!
