CINDERELLA

Oh yes if only fairytales are real , I would be like Cinderella. Because like her, I am just a poor creature who loves to dream,to clean and to sing. I can't live without my mops,Brooms, brushes, sponges and spray cleaners .I love to play with bubbles and I love animals too. By birth , I am a princess born with a peck of silver dust at the tip of my nose 😛 but when I Grew up.I was a rebel. Not in a bad way though. I know I have a good heart.  Fast forward. I am just a simple girl who works hard and has big dreams for the future. I want to be happy. And if it's not too much to ask, I wish to find my true love too.

DESIDERATA

Dear Readers. I have read so much poems in my life but this is one of the best poem that I will always remember in my heart. These powerful words touched my soul in every way possible. Reminds me that even through all my difficulties and imperfections , I am beautiful. That I have the right to live my life as I want it to be.  That I can be a good person and follow my dreams and never stop believing that dreams can come true.

DESIDERATA

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.

And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.

And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Max Ehrmann, "Desiderata".^[1]

1 CORINTHIANS 13

There is nothing impossible with God. The most perfect of all perfect love..... We shouldn't feel so hopeless and alone because HE is there. HAVE FAITH. ALWAYS......

This is one of my favorite verses in the bible teaching us how to love UNCONDITIONALLY.

1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 

2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 

3 If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing. 

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 

5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 

6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 

7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 

8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 

9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 

10 but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 

11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 

12 Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. 

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

I still believe that the universe has some kind of special magic to help you make your dreams come true. Stay driven no matter how hard it gets.Smile.Keep your head up.Be strong.Work hard.Love hard and Never stop trying!

THE LEGEND OF THE RED STRING OF FATE

Tonight, I just thought I would like to share a touching story about the legend of the red string of fate.   It is quite interesting. Here it goes......

• A boy was walking home one night and was startled to see an old man leaning up against a fence beneath the moonlight. The old man was standing next to a giant bag and flipping through a book.

‘What are you reading?’ said the boy.

‘This is the book of marriages,’ said the old man, ‘I need only use one of the red strings in this bag to tie two people together and they will become destined to be married.’

The boy didn’t believe it so the old man took him into the village and pointed out the young girl that was destined to be his wife.

The boy became angry as he was really young and did not plan on ever getting married. He picked up a rock and threw it at the girl and ran away from the whole scene as fast as he could.

Many years later the boy’s parents arranged a marriage for him and on the night of the wedding the boy (well, actually a man now) nervously lifted the veil covering his new wife’s face.

He was happy to see that she was one of the most beautiful women in the village. But he also noticed that she wore an unusual decoration on her eyebrow and asked her about it out of curiosity.

Flustered, she removed the decoration to reveal a scar. She explained that when she was very young someone had thrown a rock at her and it had hit her in the face right above the eye…

“She self-consciously wears the adornment to cover it up. The woman is, in fact, the same young girl connected to the man by the red thread shown to him by Yue Xia Lao back in his childhood, showing that they were connected by the red string of fate.”

GOD IS AWESOME!

Footprints in the Sand. One of my most favorite poem. It reminds me how God is so Awesome! He is The one true love and The best friend we never had. We never have to think that we are alone in our battles because he is always there. Trust in him and believe that he is our maker. The very center of our universe. Don't be scared. Blessed are the meek, the poor, the weary and the oppressed. The Lord never fails to carry us even thru our darkest hour. He is the light and the hope . All we have to do is submit ourselves to his grace and pray ...........

WHAT IS BEAUTY?

  " A beautiful soul radiates beauty beyond compare." ~ Melody Lim

    It took me so many years to understand the true meaning of beauty. Once upon a time, I thought beauty can only be achieved thru the extensive use of expensive make -ups and branded outfits. But I was mistaken because true beauty comes from the pureness of one's soul like an angel or the first breath and the first innocent smile of a new born baby. True beauty speaks from a gentle heart like the soft whisper of the wind in your ears. True Beauty comes from within yourself. It is not superficial. True beauty graces your life with kindness and blesses you with a humble character. You light up a room as you walk in because your presence is like royalty even if you never have to say a word. Your beautiful soul and your untainted heart will speak for itself.
