From our house to your’s MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAVE A WONDERFUL NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!

Jesus often quoted verses of scripture that people recognized. In this way, He inspired people with new, practical ways of applying the ancient writings in their own lives.

I, too, gain a greater understanding of the Bible or other sacred texts as I let spiritual principles guide me in daily living. Following the teaching of Jesus, I have a greater understandings that i apply effectively in my life. I embrace added ways of enhancing my relationship with God and with the people who enrich my life.

The sacred words that have inspired humanity for centuries are inspiring me today. With my understanding of the sacred deepened, I live life fully.

Since you came into my life, I’ve looked forward to each day, the early morning, with you in my arms, the blue skies with us beneath a zillion stars, you and me. You make me feel as no one else. I like the person I am when i’m with you. You bring out a part of me I never knew existed, a part that was born with our first meeting. You made me know; now i have a reason to love you more, now i have a cause, a reason to believe in all the wonderful things life has to offer. You took my life and drew me into the love, and you saw in me all the qualities that no one else had ever seen. You gave me love, happiness, caring, and trust. Yes, I love you, for all these things and so much more. I love you for being yourself, and I love you because of the person you made me…HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY DARLING!!!

Hot…hot…hot…weather.The weather last days here in taiwan is awful-tropical heats, no wind blowing, no rains almost no clouds…just the sun shining. Today liane and i got up 8:30 and went to sanchich market. I bought a lot of food and some cd’s yep oldies cd’s, sounds like "let it be, let it be, let it be ooh…let it be, whisper words of wisdom let it be…hammmm lolz. I’d like to know, is anybody here listening to good oldies songs? Around me, I hear young people talking about new  R’n'B hits, rap, pop, but never about music from 60’s! Why? its definitely worth listening, and much better than R’n'B (to be frank, I hate R’n'B, philippine rap, american rap and all kinds of rap).

Sigh….i have not listened to music for a quite while. Want to find my fav cd although it is probably scratched to fuck, i shall have to dig it out and give it a spin. Wanna listen;)

Good morning everyone!!!hmmmmm nothing like a cloudy morning and hot cup of coffee to start the day out. Ok onto my minds ramblings for today hehehe…

Today i choose to have a positive attitude in all aspect of life. I can’t say it will be a lasting attitude but one things for sure it feels better than a lot of other emotion (sadness, upset etc.)For today i have a newborn hope, new dreams and a new focus in life…

I have come accross peoples advice to stay focused/positive on the things we want in life and it will come about. Does this really happen? I know a couple years ago my attitudes was a lot more positive then it is now. I seem to have lost some of it along the way. Back then i was happy for the most part even though it was the absolute most trying year of my life. I would love to be that way again and feel happy and alive…;=)

There was a terrible storm a funnel cloud was sighted and all the townsfolk scurried indoors, everything wet and glossy, the damp air smells clean and the flowers and trees drink again. Afterwards, the park, the woods and some city streets were messin around. When it passed…the sun came out all hot and wicked, we went out and there were tiny drops of rain falling couldn’t see them, but you could feel them a relieving presence in the sun;)……

This is my first time here in datun park. It takes 45 minutes from sanchich to datun. While on the way to datun i enjoyed sight seeing. Then we reached the park it’s almost on the top of the mountain. You will see the river on the middle and there is a bridge that connects both sides of the park. It’s amazing! My dear sheng hsun and liane enjoyed feeding the turtles and the different kind of fish on the river. Walking, taking pictures, we did all this though it’s sunny. We moved on to the rest house to take some rest and relax while watching some couples taking their wedding pictorials, i feel the cool wind blows touches my skin. Winter is wonderful and really amazing in datun coz flowers are in season…:-)

Today, after washing all the dishes. I sat down on the sofa turning on the television and quickly turned it off. Because, nobody inside except me. My in-laws they we’re all at the front of the main door sitting, talking including liane riding on her bicycle. So i went outside and joined them. I was only listening. Ah! shu mae (sister in-law) shares something of what she’s done today. And shu ping, shares of what happened to her date last sunday. Shu fang she shares nothing but asking me of if i understand taige? (their attention is on me NERV!). Then i replied her a "little bit of it". My grand mother in-law says i understands taige (nop, not really!). My mother in-law can’t speak mandarin chinese, if she asks me of something she speaks taige and i answered mandarin. The latter, asking me again if i don’t miss my family in the philippine and which one i prefer to live? Of course, i missed them so much my replied. And i told them frankly, if my husband will give me a choice i’d rather live in the philippine (uh…oh suddenly became silent)continues…but because you we’re all good and nice to me eventhough i am different (pinay) you all love me and accept me so that’s why i am living here. A sweet smile came from everyone(it touches my heart…drama!). And somebody gets our attention when  the dog started barking. And my father in-law slipped on the banana pill, liane saw it and she giggles. And every body was laughing not because of my father in-law slipped, it’s because the way liane laughs her grandfather. I know it hurt but he ignore the pain, perhaps he carried liane and tickling her. It reminds me of when i was a little girl my father carried me…and now it’s liane’s turn:)

When walking down the road of life, and our dreams within the heart thought we always look ahead, there is a joy in looking back…things alway’s seem so much clearer when there is distance in between, and we get the right perspective. For at least we have really seen…for we fashion our tommorrow from mistakes of yesterday, and we profit from a pipers song for which we had to pay…We are better for the lessons, that life teaches us so well!!!there would be no rising upward, if our feet had never fell…it is good to be a doer, but a dreamer has his place, it is helpful to remember, that turtle won the race…if we find the highway straighther but love the beaten track…though the view ahead is lovely!!! there’s always a joy in looking back…

Summer is almost here…i can’t resist summer is coming.The truth is i hate SUMMER!!!perspiration, sweaty palms, and sometimes having an odor yucks!!!so disgusting! and there are a lot of frogs at night didn’t stop croaking until the dawn comes huh…so annoying!!! And here i go again…in summer not only once, but twice taking a bath everyday. Even my daugther liane well that’s kid, always want to play outside under the sun. But summer was fun! swimming pools, beaches are all part of summer happenings but oh…oh! i don’t expect too much! because my husband sheng hsun, and my daugther liane, they both hate water tsk…tsk…like father like daughter they said. Summer again, my favorite drinks like shinchunaycha, fruit shakes, swaping or (halo-halo) are all here can’t wait to drink it day…by day…And also this is the season to wear sexy and cute dresses yippeeee…but anyway! i can’t wait for the winter comes!!!
