CHAIN.

It's been quite some time since i actually check my forwarded mails. Nonetheless, today, being less occupied, I decided to do some filtering and pretty much browsed through my received mails. Both forwarded and the normal ones. There's one thing i still don't get about CHAIN MAILS. What's with all the bad luck charm if you don't send this or that to a certain amount of people? Personally I do not see a point of those threats? And the 'oh so superstitious beliefs.' It's just rather shallow come to think of it, so you intend to carry forward a positive message to someone, and at the end you're threatened to forward the message, otherwise something bad will happen to you??! By then, the message with the so called "good intentions" has more so become meaningless, as the receiver feels obliged to forward them, just so the "bad luck" doesn't come in. =S Well, that was one of the reasons why i stopped checking forwarded mails, previously. Honestly, I felt as though it was a waste of time. Though generally the chain does not carry forth any bad intentions/meaning, nonetheless it may well be seen by some receivers as a threat, especially to the younger ones. Well, if you have a message you would like to share, or simply just a forwarded message to make someone's day, that's great! But would it not be so much better if it sounded more like a message well intended rather than a threat?

It's all about playing mind games, no?

Keep Smiling, Keep Shining.

True Greatness.

A man is as great as the dream he dreams,
as great as the love he bears;

As great as the value he redeems,
and the happiness he shares.

A man is as great as the thought he thinks,
as the worth he has attained;

As the fountains of which his spirit drinks,
and the insight he has gained.

A man is as great as the truth he speaks,
as great as the help he gives,

As great as the destiny he seeks,
as great as the life he lives.

The Best of Me.

I am not perfect,
never was,
and never will be.
These are not words of the pessimist,
but rather words of life's reality.
One can strive to be perfect,
flawless and free,
Free from what you may ask?
Free from all of life's vanity.
Though things on earth are only temporary,
it doesn't mean we're free from all of life's worry.
Vanity, indeed, at the end of the day,
nonetheless, we've all still got a role to play.
How you'd answer at the judgement,
is how you live your life today.
I fear the worst, I can't deny,
but i find comfort in knowing I have a guide.
He's always watching from up above,
taking care of my every need here on earth.
So here i stand, to share what i can,
Tis this statement i find so dear,
For now everything just seems a little clearer,
"Do your best and God will do the rest."

Thankfulness.

I woke up this morning today,
One look outside the window,
I see trees dancing, flowers blooming,
Birds chirping, and sun brightly shining,
"Oh Lord, what a beautiful day!", i thought to myself.

As i brushed my teeth,
A song came across my mind,
"Everything is beautiful in their own ways.."
I pondered a moment and thought to myself,
"How true." What more have i to ask from you, dear Lord?

Just as I was done washing up,
I then glance through my lil calendar on the dressing table,
Realizing how time has passed me by,
Reminiscence of all the treasured moments, family, friends, and loved ones,
I thought to myself, "Dear Lord, I thank thee for yet another day."

As I walked down the stairs,
Anticipating this beautiful day,
I then start to wonder: "How is it that i'm here today?"
In a moment of thought, I then came to my senses,
"Oh dear Lord, thank you for blessing me such wonderful parents."

Now, sitting here, with my lap top,
Blogging out my thoughts,
I start to wonder and think,
God must have been really creative,
to have created this mind and these hands of mine.

Oh i've so much more things to be thankful for,
One post isn't enough to say it all,
For the list goes on and on,
Never ending till I'm gone.
So I'll just count my blessings every day,
For I know, life is but a vapour,
this world just a temporary place to stay.
