Don't lose your way
With each passing day
You've come so far
Don't throw it away
Live believing
Dreams are for weaving
Wonders are waiting to start
Live your story
Faith, hope & glory
Hold to the truth in your heart
If we hold on together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
Where clouds roll by
For you and I
Souls in the wind
Must learn how to bend
Seek out a star
Hold on to the end
Valley, mountain
There is a fountain
Washes our tears all away
Words are swaying
Someone is praying
Please let us come home to stay
If we hold on together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
Where clouds roll by
For you and I
When we are out there in the dark
We'll dream about the sun
In the dark we'll feel the light
Warm our hearts, everyone
If we hold on together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
As high as souls can fly
The clouds roll by
For you and I

Progress In Life...
it has been ages since i last posted anything here..
today is the day,
that i knew why my heart aches,
earlier in the days of this week,
felt the aching, burning, immensely sad..
with no apparent reason,
the heart is sadden,
weeping silently at work,
the heartfelt feeling so intense..
change happens faster and faster,
live life the detached way,
to be able to treat life as a learning experience,
with every turn of time is felt...
life is but a temporary learning avenue,
for us all to experience and learn,
for us all to move forward and to evolve,
into a better and stronger person in return...
life here is just but a fleeting moment,
tears flow like an endless river,
to cleanse every sorrow and grief,,
to make way for a new beginning...
what is the purpose of life?
what is the contract to be here?
what is the price to pay not to be aligned with one's sole purpose?
what is the purpose of being here?
~ be grateful, be strong, be wise. thank you for being there... thank you for sharing... thank you...
~ love always...
~ every ending, is also the beginning...
~ LIVE LIFE~!

First Of May Lyrics, by Bee Gees
When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
we used to love while others used to play.
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
someone else moved in from far away.
Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small,
and you don't ask the time of day.
But you and I, our love will never die,
but guess we'll cry come first of May.
The apple tree that grew for you and me,
I watched the apples falling one by one.
And I recall the moment of them all,
the day I kissed your cheek and you were gone.
Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small,
and you don't ask the time of day.
But you and I, our love will never die,
but guess we'll cry come first of May.
When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
do do do do do do do do do...
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
someone else moved in from far away.
we used to love while others used to play.
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
someone else moved in from far away.
Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small,
and you don't ask the time of day.
But you and I, our love will never die,
but guess we'll cry come first of May.
The apple tree that grew for you and me,
I watched the apples falling one by one.
And I recall the moment of them all,
the day I kissed your cheek and you were gone.
Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small,
and you don't ask the time of day.
But you and I, our love will never die,
but guess we'll cry come first of May.
When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
do do do do do do do do do...
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
someone else moved in from far away.

Freshly Prepared Food For Dogs (BARF)
Got this recipe from a friend - SK (recommended for Teddy in the past...)
BARFing* required giving dogs RAW Bones + Meats...
(*BARF : Bones And RAW Food)
To BARF successfully ~one need to learn and understand the proper nutrition for dog. This is easy as it only require some reading and research...
The alternative is to supplement the usual dry dog food ("kibble") with "freshly prepared foods".
This is a good way to learn about dog nutrition...
The basic method is to REDUCE the kibble by 30% or 50% and replace with "freshly prepared food".
Basic Recipe:
(A) Buy good quality + hygenic mince meat - suggest to get lamb mince.
Boil a little water (just enough water to cover the mince meat)
Add the mince into the boiling water + cook for 10 minutes - (NO SALT or other seasoning).
After 10 minutes, will have cooked mince with a little gravy. ~* This will smell great!
(B) Boil carrots until soft. Once soft, either chop into very fine pieces or blend in blender.
(C) Chop leafy green vegetables, beet root, white cabbage and/or apples into very very fine pieces (or blend in a blender).
Mix all (A), (B) + (C) together - the proportion should be about 30% meat and 70% (B) + (C)...
If make enough to last a week - then suggest to divide + pack the Mixture into little plastic bags and freeze.
Just take out one bag at a time (preheat in micro or pan) ~ mix into kibble and feed.
In addition to giving freshly prepared foods - can also add other supplement to their daily diet.
For example:
Monday: Add one tablespoon of yogurt
Tuesday: Add one tablespoon if cod liver oil
Wednesday: Add one raw egg (with shell) + half teaspoon of raw garlic (minced)
Thursday: Add one + half tablespoon of honey
Friday: Add 2 tablespoon of vitagen
Saturday: Add One tablespoon of Olive Oil
Sunday: Add One Teaspoon of Apple Cider Vinegar
To help with skin + coat: consider giving some primrose oil (maybe some Brewers Yeast) once or twice a week (adviced to check with Pet's Doctor if pet's health requires special attention)
*Note: can vary the recipe by using different meats and different vegetables + fruits... be creative...
Examples of meats: mince beef or mince chicken. Can also use pork products like pork liver or pork meat (but with pork - must remember to cook longer! ... pork products can have worm eggs that are only killed with prolonged cooking. Can also use chicken meat or chicken giblets, etc...
Examples of vegetables + fruits: Most types of green vegetables, bananas, papaya... different varieties of apples...
But REMEMBER to check the websites for what DOGS CANNOT EAT!
For examples: Do Not Feed - avocados or onions, grapes, broccoli, etc...
What is good and what to avoid for our beloved pets~!

Useful Tips - General
Got this in one of my forwarded email and I found they are pretty useful.. ' )
Useful Tips:
1. Cure for headaches:
Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go.
2. Use of Soap Wrapper:
Don't throw away the wrapper after removing a bar of soap. Place it inside your school cabinet or shoe box. It is a cheap way to filling the air with a nice smell.
3. Are your shoes smelly?
Here's a solution. Put some tea leaves into a pair of stocking stuff each into a shoe. Leave for day or two and the smell just vanishes.
4. Tips for stamp collectors:
Place the envelope in the freezer for a few hours. You'll then able to easily lift the stamps off with a pair of tweezers.
5. To keep buttons from dropping off:
Dag a drop of clear nails polish onto the thread that secures the buttons.
This will harden and make it more difficult for the thread to break off.
6. Are cockroaches in your home driving u mad?
Try this tested trick. Fill a large bowl with cheap wine and leave it under the sink. The pests will drink it, fall in the bowl and drown easy.
7. To avoid hurting your fingers while hammering nails into the wall:
Hold the nails with a wooden clothes peg instead. So even u miss, u won't get hurt.
8. To get rid of itch from mosquito bite:
Try applying soap on the area - instant relief.
9. Ants, ants, ants, everywhere
Well, they are never said to never cross a chalk line. So get your chalk out and draw a line on the floor or wherever ants tend to march, see for yourself.
10. Don't panic if your soup's too salty:
Add cut raw potatoes and throw them away once they are cooked as they have absorbed the salt. Your soup's saved!
11. Use air-fresher spray to clean mirrors:
It does a good job and better still, give a lovely smell to the shine.
12. If u have problem with slippery shoelaces which refuse to stay:
Rub them with a candle and make them less slippery so that knot stay put
13. If u have stubborn grease stains on your work clothes:
Add a bottle of Coke with detergent. It'll help loosen the grease.
14. Dirty marks on your white court shoes:
Just add some medicated oil on a piece of cloth and clean off the dirty marks on your white court. They'll be looking as new again.

Thunder!!!
As days goes by, my fondness for rain (water) grew at a tremendous rate! My love for thunder and lightning grew too... As when there is thunder and/or lightning, there will always be rain! (but there is false alarms too - but I am okay with it..)
The pitter-patter rhythm of the rain, accompanied by occasional beat of the drumming thunderclaps and the constant flashes of lightning makes my mellow day nostalgic when it is accompanied by some slow classical music. It is a rather soothing and relaxing combination.. Just relax and let the mind wonder..
I am used to be afraid of thunders and lightnings when I was little. But, now, I will just enjoy the constant rumblings, roaring and thundering noise it makes.. At times, I do wished that it would be nice if it is slightly ever more louder.. Sometimes, I just can't have enough of it~!!! Why so? I dunno.. What I felt is, the thundering sound is comforting, soothing, relaxing and I feel safe... It is bold, strong, energising, straightforward and warm...
It is amazing on how lil ones thinks.. When I was little, I always day dream... keeping everything to myself..
It is very fortunate that now, there is a place for lil ones to pour their heart out: http://www.iusedtobelieve.com/nature/thunder_and_lightning/
Treasure Nature, Love It and Take Action Now Before It Is Too Late!!!
:: A little facts about Thunder ::
Thunder is the sound made by lightning. Depending on the nature of the lightning and distance of the listener, it can range from a sharp, loud crack to a long, low rumble (brontide). The sudden increase in pressure and temperature from lightning produces rapid expansion of the air surrounding and within a bolt of lightning. In turn, this expansion of air creates a sonic shock wave which produces the sound of thunder.

I Ran Today~!
I am craving for adrenalin rush lately. I came to realized why… I haven’t been doing crazy things for a while … wait! No no.. I haven’t been doing crazy things for ages already!!!
So, I resolve to make an attempt to go for brisk walk or a quick run daily. Wanted to start yesterday but the sky wasn’t really on my side.. Even today! But after making much intention since yesterday, the sky finally give way and I am so happy!!! I RAN! I ran today!
My short run/fast walk only lasted merely 5 to 10 mins. (*I can’t really run – as for my records, I usually have legitimate excuses not to get involved in running. I always experience this pain at my abdomen area while running. The pain puts me off. Thus, with that intention in mind, I involved myself in other more major responsibilities whenever there is cross country event in school! It is a coincidence for me.. But coincidence happens, happens for a reason. Yes, some of you may have guessed it but some may not.. I am in the rescue team with white uniforms!!)
Why do I run?
Perhaps to........
To exercise?
To clear my mind?
To run away from something physical?
To run away from reality?
To take care of my health?
To take care of my body?
To make myself fit?
Cuz I feel bad of neglecting the vessel of my soul - the body?
Due to stress?
Due to unhappiness?
Due to happiness?
I need to get tired?
I am too restless?
(*the list goes on.....)
Well, I don't know..
Whoever who runs, have a passion in running and loves running, may you tell me?
Enlighten me~!
No matter what it is, I shall make it a point that I will run tomorrow too!!!

Hello 2009, Good bye 2008
My experiences, feelings and observations...
Before 2009 and at the end of 2008:
- everyone is thinking of what to do, how to celebrate and where to go.
- i did not think of anything at all...
On the eve of 2008, counting down to 2009:
- everyone is so happy to be going somewhere..
- i am happily happy, went home and spent time with family and zzzzz - dreamland...
On 2009!!!!
- everyone ???
- spent time with family and being happy with the new beginning..
What is running through my mind:
- resolutions that i have achieved in 2008
- what are the new resolutions that i am looking forward to in 2009
Am working towards it..
Some of my acquaintances did bring it out that if we writes it down, it is easier to get those resolutions realised..
But it is okay.. I prefer to write them down somewhere else.. " )
It is indeed a
new year
new beginning
renewed resolutions
another journey
more discoveries as years goes by
It is like
a KPI to measure self accomplishments
a year old to age
another year to happiness
another year to more adventures
another year nearer to my dreams
Live Life~!
