On the same day, I have two different people describing me.

One said I was offensive, and the other said I was an angel.

Right... Offensive Angel...

NEVER Beyond The Reach or Beyond The Need

"Your worst days are never so bad that you are beyond the reach of God's grace. And your best days are never so good that you are beyond the need of God's grace."

-- Jerry Bridges

Your grace is sufficient for me.

Home Alone

Need to remind myself of the stuff to do for staying alone!!!

Gotta feed the dog and the fishes

Feed the dog and fish

Dog and fish

Dog fish

Done.

Sleeping Holiday

Didn't work from Friday to today (Tuesday). A break that I slept and slept and SLEPT. Literally more than the total I slept in a week.

Needed a break to rest the body and that was what I gave it. Headache and sore throat from the haze, that was irritating.

Had backache today and need to massage it while lying on bed. Hope it does not stay. That is just as irritating.

Still feel zombie like...

Back to work tomorrow. Hope I remember my login password :op

Current Favourites

Not too bothered by what others think. My two current favourites...

Lee Hom Concert

Back from watching Lee Hom concert with Irene.

He is THAT good.

Thought it was interesting to see him play from one drum and progressing as the other pieces are added in by the stage crew.

One night demonstrated his talent to play guitar, keyboard, drums, piano, violin and erhu.

Next up.......Parachute Band.........

Believe In The Father COMPLETELY

"Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!"

-- Matthew 7 : 9 - 11

If I believe that my Father will provide for me, then the belief should be COMPLETE. It is inevitable to hear pangs of doubts or unbelief ringing in the head, but it is with the faith and strength through the Holy Spirit in me that I know and can assert my victory.

All was conquered on that cross. Now's the time to claim that victory.

A Conquest From Within

"Jesus, who could destroy Jerusalem with a word, who could call down legions of angels to force subjection, instead looks over the city and weeps."

"God holds back; he hides himself; he weeps. Why? Because he desires what power can never win. He is a king who wants not subservience, but love. Thus, rather than mowing down Jerusalem, Rome, and every other worldly power, he chose the slow, hard way of Incarnation, love, and death. A conquest from within."

-- Philip Yancey

First Timers

Quite a number of first timers this year.

The Love Of A Father

I saw this a couple of times and it always touches me.

That kind of love magnified is how much my Heavenly Father feels for me.

London Up, Paris Down

Some people get affected by the travel class when going on flights. Moan about not getting first class or business class from before till after the flight and some days later.

I'm just happy that I get to go London and back from Paris. Not many people out there get to travel even!

Had a great trip! I am satisfied :o)

Joshua is soooooooooo cute......

Prawnie - The Sumo Kid

Life is good here with the hospitality of Duane and Hiromi. Have now upgraded to sumo status.

London - My 2nd Home

Right now back in my 2nd home -- London

Feels good to see the familiar sights after 4 years away from here. Some things have changed. But it feels good to be walking down the streets that have changed and yet familiar to me.

This is almost like an international meet up for me I guess.

Damian (Poland)

Marijke (Holland)

Vicky (Hong Kong)

Momoka (Japan)

Damian is coming to Singapore! Finally........after I visited him in Poland, now is his turn! Gonna take leave and bring him around. Might be the first time for me to go some places in Singapore! Hahaha........

Purpose of Passwords

Login and password. The essential thing to safeguarding the information in my work laptop, the different applications I have to run, the secure websites I need information from, the email program I have to use too!!!

I know the purpose is for security. When it starts to expire and require a new password every X number of days, security goes up another level. A constant change, just let the hacker have a go at it!

BUT......the following may be some requirements, depending on which application:

- a new password every X number of days

- must consist of at least one lowercase alphabet, one uppercase alphabet, one number, one symbol, blah blah blah

- must not be the same as TEN previously used passwords

- must be minimum 8 characters long

By the time I think of all these, I cannot remember what I wanted to login for.

What THEN is the real purpose of the passwords??? I need to remember 10 different ones (at least) whereas the hacker concentrates on hacking one. You mean that is security?

Long Lost Disciple

A "disciple" from long long time ago. Lost contact in between because we were each busy with our stuff. And then I try to call a few weeks back and realised that the number is no longer in use.

Determined not to slowly lose in contact with the people I've known and were part of my life, I managed to get her number. She just got married. Time has flown by so quickly. My disciple has grown up so much. I think I want to meet up and catch up with her. I hope He is still part of her life.

Hmmm...now I remember the words of Tingie...

This is a year of restoration.

Importance of 5Cs

5Cs came to my mind and I think they are important.

C reator

C ommitment

C ommunication

C onsistent

C ontentment

Relationship between EMOTIONS and LOGIC

"LOGIC is low when EMOTIONS are high."

Letting Go

Currently on course led by a lecturer who is also a counsellor.

One common trait seen in her experience:

"Not everyone can let go even if they know they are suffering."

Pretty much sums up why a lot of people are struggling with issues.
