Elmo

Way before i know any others hobby exist..... , i only layan Elmo n sesame street.

Famous quote from Elmo "That tickles!", "Elmo loves you!"

He's such a lovable character, little guy. He's a happy little dude. He's just a kind, caring soul. Wouldn't think of being rude. He looks upon the sunny side and chasing all the clouds away. He's always teaching something new and sure knows how to play.

Another hair cut

Just had a new haircut back in Miri. Initially planed to visit and get a hair cut from my aunt in a beauty saloon. Unfortunately to find out that day her saloon is not open for business.
Well later just drove a few block away to walk into another hair saloon.
As usual, i have to wait for my turn to get a hair cut. Browsing through ladies magazines *only magazine available* Where are all the Cars magazine? I thought this is a Unisex Saloon?
What the heck~ grab anything to read though.
+_x shockingly to find out a ladies handbags would cost RM3k plus and some even RM5k. Come to think of it. Not much figures ,even functions and values added worth. The only purpose of keeping goodies in it. It can't do e-mail, watch DVD, play mp3, make coffee, warm up food, take photos, can't plant flowers, no automatic bag open/close, can't help you to organise putting stuff in it, no LCD, no time telling figure, no security lock, no thumb recognition, cooling system and so much more.... sigh~
I wonder any ladies would to buy it and doubting them to have any sense of financial/simple economic intelligence or not. It's not a worth the value of well spenting it. Rather use the money to buy school bags and books for the poor children later in their grown up life would give it back to the societies.

Hmm... it's my turn to get my hair cut d. My mind is tired, no harm taking a nap. Yiaks... only later i found out my hair turn out to be like this look. It also changed the pose of my chin too. Kind of pathetic. Got to wear sunglasses to hide behind it. No eye see ar...

Beauty and the Beast, The Madame Le Prince de Beaumont version

The rich merchant not only has three daughters but also three sons who have little to do with the story. All the girls are good looking, particularly the youngest who becomes known as Little Beauty. The sisters are vain and jealous of Beauty who is by contrast modest and charming and wishes to stay with her father.

All of a sudden the family loses its money and is forced into a poorer lifestyle which makes life more difficult all around and exaggerates the differences between Beauty and her sisters. Beauty and the three brothers throw themselves into working for their new life while the sisters are bored. The father takes a trip in the hopes of regaining his wealth, and the older sisters demand he bring them expensive garments. Beauty asks simply for a rose.

The father is unsuccessful in his attempt to regain his wealth and in despair, wandering in the forest, is trapped in a snow storm. He comes upon a seemingly deserted palace where he finds food and shelter for the night. In the morning he wanders into the garden where he sees the perfect rose for Beauty. Upon plucking it, a hideous Beast appears and says that for his thievery he must die. The father begs for his life and, the Beast agrees to let him go if one of his daughters will take his place. If she refuses, then he must return to die himself. The Beast gives him a chest filled with gold and sends him home. This treasure enables the older daughters to make fashionable marriages. On giving Beauty the rose, her father cannot help but tell her what happened. The brothers offer to slay the Beast but the father knows that they would die in the process. Beauty insists on taking her father’s place, and so she returns with him to the Beast’s palace where he reluctantly leaves her.

In a dream Beauty sees a beautiful lady who thanks her for her sacrifice and says that she will not go unrewarded. The Beast treats her well; all her wishes are met by magic. He visits her every evening for supper and gradually Beauty grows to look forwards to these meetings as a break to the monotony of her life. At the end of each visit the Beast asks Beauty to be his wife, which she refuses although agreeing never to leave the palace. Beauty sees in the magic mirror that her father is desperately missing her and asks that she might return to visit him. The Beast assents on the condition that she return in seven days, lest he die.

The next morning she is at home. Her father is overjoyed to see her but the sisters are once again jealous of Beauty, her newly found happiness and material comfort with the Beast. They persuade Beauty to stay longer, which she does, but on the tenth night she dreams of the Beast who is dying. Wishing herself back with him, she is transported back to the castle where she finds the Beast dying of a broken heart. She realizes that she is desperately in love with the Beast and says that she would gladly marry him. At this the Beast is transformed into a prince, the Father joins them at the palace and the sisters are turned into statues until they own up to their own faults.

The Prince and Beauty live happily ever after because their "contentment is founded on goodness."

Steadfast confidence in Him

Got this sms mesage from a friend this morning.

The richest answers are not the speediest...

A prayer may be all the longer on its voyage because it brings us a heavier freight of blessing.
Delayed answer are not only trials of faith,
but they give us opportunities of honouring God with our steadfast confidence in Him under all circurmtances.

God's answers never come too soon, nor are they too late.
They are always right on time.

Candle Light

Light a candle to shatter all the darkness in the night
Tender light will unshadow every sight
Needless to stand no more in the shadow
The gentle flame will burn bright and guide us on our path
The seasons come and go, and we would be weary from the change
Yet to be complete
For good we keep on walking, knowing it's not the same
But love will always still remain
Oh yes indeed,
We learned the most precious words are left unspoken and better sealed
To leave and awaiting for those precious moments...
Yet to be unfold in a special way
For true love is always stay real

Sunflower

The sun shines on the sunflower

She blossoms and she grows

What makes her shine so bright

Heaven only knows

The storms they try to break her

But they will not succeed

They'll never have her stem

Just carry her beautiful seed

The hail will come to pelt her

To smash her into pieces

But they cannot do damage

To this unique species

She'll hold her golden head high

She'll smile at everyone

She'll dance around her garden

Until her seasons done

Everyone does wonder

What makes her stand apart

She's the tallest golden flower

With the biggest beautiful heart

So when you meet the sunflower

Be honest and be true

She'll put a seed into your hand

Your beauty will shine through

Enough for health and happiness

To last your whole life through

Take her seed and plant it

Watch your dreams come true

Hmmm....

Love this guitar.....

Enjoy watching this dog sleeping !!! want to touch the nose or not? hehehe...

Can't wait to drive this car....

Also not forgetting this awesome sunglasses....

Love the simplicity of it

Just Being...

I can't give solutions to all of life's problems, doubts,or fears.
But I can listen to you, and together we will search for answers.

I can't change your past with all it's heartache and pain, nor the future with its untold stories.
But I can be there now when you need me to care.

I can't keep your feet from stumbling.
I can offer my hands that you may grasp it and not fall.

Your joys, triumphs, successes, and happiness are not mine;
Yet I can share in your laughter and joy.

Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge;
I can only support you, encourage you,and help you when you ask.

I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship, from your values, from God, from me.
I can only pray for you, talk to you and wait for you.

I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you,
But I can give you the room to change, room to grow, room to be yourself.

I can't keep your heart from breaking, aching and hurting,
But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces and put them back in place.

I can't tell you who you are.
But I can help you to find your identity in the one who made you.
The precious one and worth much more than rubbies & diamonds, the only one.
And I would love you just as you are and be your friend.

Moment of Despair

Lord lead me to Your still water where i can find peace with You alone
Lead me in Your love where i can lean my trust and cast my heavy heart upon You
Calm the storms in my heart so i may find rest with You
Take me in, take me deeper and not be moved by You
Let me know You're standing with me in Your presence
You're all i want, You're all i need
Allow me to find strength in You to keep walking
You are the life to my soul that gives breath to me
Lord, please still my heart
Lord would You remove every discouragement and fill me with Your hope and promises
Tell me that i'll be all right, i'll be ok
Guard my heart to continue surrendering it all to You once again

Another Day

what are we all trying to prove to one another? what is at the heart of this insecurity? is it insecurity itself? these are questions that have been burning in me for a year or two now. im amazed at what we all try to make ourselves in the company of those we feel we need to impress. i have had people in my life that have felt the need to tell me their every success and important accomplishment. to all of that i say..."who cares?" i am your friend because i enjoy being around you and you encourage growth in my life, not because of all the stuff you've done or won. i think we should approach our earthly relationships like Christ approached us. He tells us to come just as we are and let Him loves us. why can't we do that daily with our friends or parents or families or love one? what are we all trying to prove to one another?

Ice Cream Please!!!

This passage really touches my heart from the recent book that i'm currently reading right now.Love to share with you all.
"I want ice-cream, Daddy!""Eat your supper first, Joshua, and then you can have some ice cream." It was the beggining of a conversation with my son, Joshua, one evening as he and I enjoyed a meal together. " I want ice cream, Daddy!""Eat your supper first, Joshua," I repeated, " and then you can have some ice cream. You can't have the ice cream until you eat your supper."
Joshua sat there, looking first at his dinner plate and then back at me. After some time, and a battle of the wills, he pocked up his fork and began to eat the food before him. As he chewed his food slowly, he glanced at me from time to time, seemingly trying to determine how serious I was about his eating his dinner.

He was rather quiet as he ate his food, not his normal talkative self. He ate his food unenthuasiastically, tiny bite by tiny bite. To encourage him, I reminded him about the delirious ice cream waiting for him in the freezer.

When he finally finished, he triumphly showed me his empty plate, and with dazzling eyes and a smile that stretched across his entire face, said, "Ice cream, Daddy!! i want ice cream!!"
It gave me so much joy to hand him a generous bowful of the ice cream i had promised. I was thrilled that he had obeyed me, and now i could bless him with dessert.

Several days later as i reflected on it, i realised that my evening esperience with Joshua and the ice cream held rich insights regarding our relationship with our heavenly Father and His willingness to bless His children. Isn't amazing how God designed the relationship between parents and children to give us an idea of His love and care for us? From the first moment Joshua looked at me with his beautiful dark eyes and asked for the ice cream, I absolutely wanted to give it to him because I knew how much he wanted it. However, as his father, I had responsibility for his well being. I knew how important it was for him to have the proper nourishment of a balanced meal, for while the main course is rarely as enticing as the dessert, it is almost always more beneficial.
But when Joshua finally ate that last morsel, held up his empty plate, and said, "Ice cream, Daddy!!" i want ice cream!" i was delighted to fulfill my promise and give him a big bowl of his favorite treat.

That's how our Father in heaven operates. He will satisfy our desires when we obey Him. My son had a desire for ice cream, but i knew that he really needed a balanced meal. I wanted to give Joshua his desired dessert, but he needed to obey me first concerning his need. After Joshua obeyed, I was delighted to give him plenty of icew cream.

This just how our loving heavenly Father relates to us. We read in Scripture: Delight yourself also in the LORD,And He shall give you the desires of your heart.(Ps. 37:4) When we delight in Him, He gives us the desires that are submitted to His lordship. And since our heavenly Father rules over all without limitation, He delights to send wonderful blessings to His children when we obey Him.

* Friends I hope you all have been blessed by the passage as good as it is for me and as for you :)

Be still, and know that I am God.

"Be still, and know that I am God."
Fatigued, I collapse in to the comfort of my bed;
Overwhelmed, I try in vain to plan my day ahead.
I acknowledge my dependence upon self is futile.
Your constant strength in my life is crucial.
You gently say, “I'm all you need;
Without me you won't succeed.
I'll be your refuge, your hiding place.
Just allow me to calm your anxious spirit and seek my face.
“It's not about you; it's all about me. Now proclaim the world what I have done for you.
Bring glory to my name. Tell how you will never be the same.”
There are times when we're troubled as we carry heavy burdens. We can find comfort in God’s words.
Courage is always found in believing God's promises. (Joshua 1:9 “Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.")
Our maturity is linked to our embracing the truth that God loves-us passionately, eternally, and individually. (Isaiah 43:1-3, “Fear not, for I have redeemed you. I have called you by name, you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire, you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.”)
It's always such a comfort & peace to able to quiet my anxious and busy mind before God and knowing in His Words that no one can take away that joy. (John 16:22). I have hope for the future, and I need to share that very hope with those around me.
By acknowledge that His ways are higher than my ways. (Isaiah 55:9), I can best see God's work in my weakness as I plan ahead for the days, years to come. Though there's time and area in my life which I may not know what the plan or what ahead of me, even I'll not have a clue as to what the future would hold for me. It's ok. Our God Father knows. He knows what's best, He knows my future. I can rest assured to humbly submit and lay it all upon His feet. I know at the end of the day, He'll stretch forth & reach down His hands upon my future with much blessings.

Thank you God~ Truely You're the ever faithful one.
