Welcome February

January has come to an end.
The first month of 2012 was okay.
Celebrating Chinese New Year with family and friends was so much fun.
And here comes February.
February always reminds me of Valentine day.
So I'll end this post with a poem about love.
I've got this from my church monthly magazine.


Marriage takes three to be complete - Beth Stuckwisch
It is not enough for two to meet,
they must be united in love by love's Creator, God above.
Then their love will be firm and strong,
able to last when things go wrong.
Because they have felt God's love
and know He's aways there,
He'll never go.
And they have both loved Hi in kind,
with all the heart and soul and mind.
And in that love they've found the way,
to love each other every day.
A marriage that follows God's plan
takes more than a woman and a man.
It needs a oneness that can be only found from Christ.
Marriage takes three.

An Update



Late New Year Gift

I received a package yesterday.
A bottle of rose wine.
Castell D'Age
along with this message


if it didn't bring you joy
just leave it behind
let's ring the new year
with good things in mind
let's every bad memory go
that brought heartache and pain
and let's turn a new leaf
with the smell of new rain
let's forget past mistakes
making amends for this year
sending you these greetings
to bring you hope and cheer
happy new year


I just want to say thanks and sorry.
Thanks for all the sweet things you did.
And sorry for I couldn't do all the things you asked for.
Leaving it is easy,
forgetting all the bad memory ain't that easy.

Just A Dream

I admire people who dare to chase their dreams.
Who willing to go out of their comfort zone.
Who have the guts to take the risks.
I do not know what my dreams are anymore.
I guess I am just afraid.
Afraid that it might not happen.
Afraid that it will only stay as a dream.

First Phone Call

There are always a first time for everything.
Just now I had a short phone conversation with Cheryl.
It's like an interview.
I gave her questions and she answered me.
It was funny though.

Extraordinary People

I am currently addicted to this series.
I watch it on Youtube.
It tell the life of truly extraordinary people.
Some of them were born with rare disease or birth defects.
Some of them have an unusual capabilities.
They are an inspiration.
It reminds me to give thanks.
Too often we take things for granted.



Daily Devotional


Living Without Regret

by Joyce Meyer - posted January 19, 2012

But one thing I do [it is my one aspiration]: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the [supreme and heavenly] prize to which God in Christ Jesus is calling us upward. —Philippians 3:13-14
Many people stay trapped in the past. There is only one thing that can be done about the past, and that is forget it. When we make mistakes, as we all do, the only thing we can do is ask God's forgiveness and go on.
Like Paul, we are all pressing toward the mark of perfection, but none of us has arrived. I believe Paul enjoyed his life and ministry and this "one aspiration" of his was part of the reason why.
Like us, he was pressing toward the mark of perfection, admitting that he had not arrived, but having insight on how to enjoy his life while he was making the trip.
Mistakes are a regular part of life, and I spent many years hating myself for each of my failures. I desperately wanted to be a good Christian. I wanted to please God. But I still thought it was my perfect performance that would please Him. I had not yet learned that He was pleased with my faith. In Hebrews 11:6 we read, But without faith it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to Him.
Even when we make mistakes and waste precious time as a result of those mistakes, being upset when we could be enjoying life, it is useless to continue being miserable for an extended period of time because of the original mistake. Two wrongs never make anything right.
If you made a mistake twenty years ago or ten minutes ago, there is still nothing you can do about it except ask for forgiveness, receive it, forget the past, and go on. There may be some restitution you can make to an individual you hurt; and, if that is the case, by all means do so.
But the bottom line is that you still must let go of the past in order to grasp the future. Until you do so, you will not enjoy life the way God intended when He sent Jesus.

My Sister

I love my sister so much.
She's one of the most important person in my life.
I never imagine living my life without her presence.
Even though she can be very annoying sometimes.
Thanks to her, now I have three beautiful princesses.



I Won't Give Up

When I look into your eyes,
it's like watching the night sky,
or a beautiful sunrise.
There's so much they hold.

And just like them old stars,
I see that you've come so far,
to be right where you are.
How old is your soul?

I won't give up on us,
even if the skies get rough.
I'm giving you all my love.
I'm still looking up.

And when you're needing your space,
to do some navigating,
I'll be here patiently waiting,
to see what you find.

Cause even the stars they burn,
some even fall to the earth.
We've got a lot to learn.
God knows we're worth it.
No, I won't give up.

I don't want to be someone who walks away so easily.
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make.

Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to
use the tools and gifts we got.
Yeah, we got a lot at stake.

And in the end you're still my friend.
At least we did intend for us to work.
We didn't break.
We didn't burn.
We had to learn, how to bend, without the world, caving in.
I had to learn, what I've got, and what I'm not,
and who I am.

I won't give up on us,
even if the skies get rough.
I'm giving you all my love.
I'm still looking up.
I'm still looking up.

I won't give up on us. (No, I'm not giving up.)
God knows I'm tough, he knows. (I am tough. I am love.)
We've got a lot to learn. (We're life. We are love.)
God knows we're worth it. (And we're worth it.)

I won't give up on us,
even if the skies get rough.
I'm giving you all my love.
I'm still looking up.

Summer: Well, you don't believe that, do you?
Tom: It's love. It's not Santa Claus.
Share this quote

Tom: It's official. I'm in love with Summer.
[while Montage of Summer plays]
Tom: I love her smile. I love her hair. I love her knees. I love how she licks her lips before she talks. I love her heart-shaped birthmark on her neck. I love it when she sleeps.

Paul: [Opens the door to Tom's apartment] We didn't know who to call.
McKenzie: It's Amanda Heller all over again.
Rachel Hansen: You did the right thing.

Rachel Hansen: Just because she likes the same bizzaro crap you do doesn't mean she's your soul mate.

Partygoer: So Tom, what is it that you do?
Tom: I uh, I write greeting cards.
Summer: Tom could be a really great architect if he wanted to be.
Partygoer: That's unusual, I mean, what made you go from one to the other?
Tom: I guess I just figured, why make something disposable like a building when you can make something that last forever, like a greeting card.

Summer: We've been like Sid and Nancy for months now.
Tom: Summer, Sid stabbed Nancy, seven times with a kitchen knife, I mean we have some disagreements but I hardly think I'm Sid Vicious.
Summer: No I'm Sid.

Vance: [reading a card that Tom has written] Roses are red, violets are blue... Fuck you, whore!
Share this quote

Narrator: This is a story of boy meets girl. The boy, Tom Hansen of Margate, New Jersey, grew up believing that he'd never truly be happy until the day he met the one. This belief stemmed from early exposure to sad British pop music and a total mis-reading of the movie 'The Graduate'. The girl, Summer Finn of Shinnecock, Michigan, did not share this belief. Since the disintegration of her parent's marriage she'd only love two things. The first was her long dark hair. The second was how easily she could cut it off and not feel a thing. Tom meets Summer on January 8th. He knows almost immediately she is who he has been searching for. This is a story of boy meets girl, but you should know upfront, this is not a love story.
Share this quote

Tom: She took a giant shit on my face. Literally.
Alison: Literally?
Tom: Well, no, not literally. That's disgusting.
Share this quote

Tom: [Montage of Summer] I hate her crooked teeth. I hate her 1960s haircut. I hate her knobby knees. I hate her cockroach-shaped splotch on her neck. I hate the way she smacks her lips before she talks. I hate the way she sounds when she laughs.
[Fade to black as Swayze's "She's Like the Wind" plays briefly]
Tom: I HATE THIS SONG!
Bus Driver: [Open to Tom standing while bus comes to a sudden stop] Sir, you need to get off the bus.

Tom: My name's Tom.

Narrator: Most days of the year are unremarkable. They begin, and they end, with no lasting memories made in between. Most days have no impact on the course of a life. May 23rd was a Wednesday.

Tom: Paul, seriously...
Paul: Did you bang her?
Tom: No.
Paul: What, hum job? Hand job?
Tom: Man, no. No jobs. I'm still unemployed. We - we kissed.

McKenzie: Hey, don't you have like 20 cards to write by Friday?
Tom: Nope, all done.
McKenzie: Really? Well, could you help me with mine? Because I'm running out of ways to say "Congratulations". So far, I've got: "Congrats", "Good job" and "Well done".
Tom: Hmmm. How about..."Every day you make me proud. But today you get a card."
McKenzie: Shit, that's good!
Tom: I know.

Tom: Look, we don't have to put a label on it. That's fine. I get it. But, you know, I just... I need some consistency.
Summer: I know.
Tom: I need to know that you're not gonna wake up in the morning and feel differently.
Summer: And I can't give you that. Nobody can.

Tom: Did you ever do this, you think back on all the times you've had with someone and you just replay it in your head over and over again and you look for those first signs of trouble?

Tom: [split screen scene on the train about Millie's wedding] Yeah but you said you were going that's why I'm going.
McKenzie: And that's why I called her last night and told her I was sick, like a ninja.

Narrator: If Tom had learned anything... it was that you can't ascribe great cosmic significance to a simple earthly event. Coincidence, that's all anything ever is, nothing more than coincidence... Tom had finally learned, there are no miracles. There's no such thing as fate, nothing is meant to be. He knew, he was sure of it now.

Tom: This is lies. We are liars. Think about it. Why do people buy cards? It's not because they want to say how they feel. People buy cards because they can't say they feel or are afraid to. And we provide the service that let's them off the hook. You know what? I say to hell with it. Let's level with America. Or at least let them speak for themselves. Right?

Tom: Nobody loves Ringo Starr.
Summer: That's what I love about him.
Share this quote

Narrator: For Tom Hansen, this was the night where everything changed. That wall Summer so often hid behind - the wall of distance, of space, of casual - that wall was slowly coming down. For here was Tom, in her world... a place few had been invited to see with their own eyes. And here was Summer, wanting him there. Him, no one else.
Share this quote

Narrator: As he listened, Tom began to realize that these stories weren't routinely told. These were stories one had to earn. He could feel the wall coming down. He wondered if anyone else had made it this far. Which is why the next six words changed everything.
Summer: I've never told anybody that before.
Tom: I guess I'm not just anybody.

Tom: What happened? Why - why didn't they work out?
Summer: What always happens. Life.

Tom: People should be able to say how they feel - how they really feel - not, you know, some words that some strangers put in their mouths.

Summer: Well, you know, I guess it's 'cause I was sitting in a deli and reading Dorian Gray and a guy comes up to me and asks me about it and... now he's my husband.
Tom: Yeah. And... so?
Summer: So, what if I'd gone to the movies? What if I had gone somewhere else for lunch? What if I'd gotten there 10 minutes later? It was - it was meant to be. And... I just kept thinking... Tom was right.
Tom: No.
Summer: Yeah, I did.

Summer: I did. It just wasn't me that you were right about.

We provide the service that lets them off the hook. You know what? I say to hell with it. Lets level with America at least let them speak for themselves right I mean look, look. What is this, what does this say? "Congratulations on your new baby." How bout "congratulations on your new baby, guess that's it for hanging out, nice knowing ya." How bout this one? With all the pretty hearts on the front, I think I know where this ones going. Yup "Happy Valentines Day sweetheart, I love you." Isn't that sweet? Ain't love grand? This is exactly what I'm talking about. What does that even mean, love? Do you know? Do you? Anybody? If somebody gave me this card Mr. Vance, I'd eat it. It's these cards, and the movies and the pop songs, they're to blame for all the lies and the heartache, everything. We're responsible. I'M responsible. I think we do a bad thing here. People should be able to say how they feel, how they really feel, not ya know, some words that some stranger put in their mouth. Words like love, that don't mean anything.
