I am leaving you with a gift – peace of mind and heart.
And the peace I give isn’t like the peace the world gives.
So don’t be troubled or afraid.
John 14:27
He shared this verse with me today,
“Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart, then you will win favour and a good name in the sight of God and man.”
Proverbs 3:3-4
Read “A Little Princess” a 1904 children’s novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett and thought it’s pretty good!
“Sara Crewe is brought over from India by her father to join a girls’ school in London, but when she is suddenly thrown into poverty, she must keep hold of her vivid imagination and kind heart to prove to those who ill-treat her she is still a ‘little princess’.”
When facing mean people like Ms Minchin, Sara remained polite and calm! I love this sensible child who’s truly a princess not merely in wealth but in spirit. Here’s my favourite quote from the her, “When you will not fly into a passion people know you are stronger than they are, because you are strong enough to hold in your rage, and they are not, and they say stupid things they wish they hadn’t said afterward. There’s nothing so strong as rage, except what makes you hold it in – that’s stronger. It’s a good thing not to answer your enemies.”
I need to learn from Sara. To learn to control my rage and to not say stupid things that I wish I hadn’t said.
Yet another enchanting and engaging read by Sophie Kinsella. It is the same old “Kinsella’s writing style” that I love! A lighthearted and hilarious read encircling around a ditzy girl who was haunted by her great aunt (who seems to be stuck in the 1920s despite dying at a great age of 105 in the twentieth century). A story which sets you wishing for an endearing, vivacious and spirited great aunt in your life.

“No human on God’s earth is a nobody.”
‘Did you know there are thirty-two names for love in one of the Eskimo languages?’ August said. ‘And we just have this one. We are so limited, you have to use the same word for loving Rosaleen as you do for loving a Coke with peanuts. Isn’t that a shame we don’t have more ways to say it?’
- Extracted from The Secret Life of Bees, Sue Monk Kidd
Now, I swear by the aphorism, “What goes around comes around”.
Next time if anyone hands you a flyer, take it. FREAKING TAKE IT.
When people stop shopping, other people lose their jobs. So there is no moral high ground to be gained by abstaining from felicity.
– Anna Wintour, Vogue’s Editor of Chief
Girls, now you’ve got a greater reason to go enjoy some guilt free shopping.
Watched it last week and it gave me a new perspective in life.
People are meant to die. People are meant to lose their love ones. Cause only through loss, can one learn to cherish what you have.
Did I mention Brad Pit is cute? Cate is very classy too.

I quoted this from someone from Today newspaper to my friend. Sort of trying to motivate him.
“Maybe the hump is put in front of you because to emerge triumphant at the end of the quest is just not meant to be easy.”
But he replied.
I think the hump should be replaced and the quote should go like this…
“Maybe the muthaf@%$ing mountain is put in front of you because to emerge triumphant at the end of the quest is just not meant to be easy.”
LOL.
