Year 2007
On the eve of 2008, I pondered over my life in year 2007. As I looked back I realized that I have lost many things and people dear to me. How can I then give thanks on our Thanksgiving Day on 1 Jan 2008?
Yet God reminded me that He was the One Who saw me through all my low and frustrating periods. Without Him I would have been lost myself. Yes, His grace is sufficient for me (2 Corinthians 12:9).
I hardly have time to blog these days and my online blogging friends have also one by one stopped blogging. I missed them. Some have already settled down with their own family, some are about to be married, some have found their sweetheart, and with one or two still 'dangling' alone.
For me, my work is my constance companion, other than God. I know that He is all I need and I must give my all to Him. I am sure He will see me through another season of life in 2008 and make me a channel of blessings to those whom I come across like before or even more. He has seen through my 2007 season already.
I am glad to be a Christian. :)
I wish all readers of my blog a meaningful 2008!

While I am taking a break from blogging, it does not mean I am leaving. I will still come and visit - just, maybe not as frequently as before.
I am glad you are a Christina too and pray you have a blessed and holy and fulfilling 2008 as well.
And if tonight my soul may find her peace
in sleep, and sink in good oblivion,
and in the morning wake like a new-opened flower
then I have been dipped again in God, and new-created.

Thanks, Richard. :)
Don't say goodbye when we never even met...
You and I, we just happened to sit side-by-side in the bus.
You have reached your destination, pressed the bell and alight.
So, don't say goodbye...
You and I, we were just passer-by.
It happened that day, heavy rain pour that we took shelter under the same bus-stop.
When the rain stopped, we went our separate way.
So, don't say goodbye.
You and I, we just happened to shared the same sentiments for a piece of theatrical art.
We cried and laughed for the eloping lovers
the fairy queen who fell in love with the donkey
and the amusing fairy king who trying to undo his deed with the help of a mischief
When the show was over, we stood up and walked our separate path.
So don't say goodbye...
