"The roses, the lovely notes, the dining and dancing are all welcome and splendid. But when the Godiva is gone, the gift of real love is having someone who'll go the distance with you. Someone who, when the wedding day limo breaks down, is willing to share a seat on the bus."

-Oprah Winfrey

Wishing Darren and Kelly everlasting happiness in their next phase of life! :)

flea fatigue

8 hrs of fatigue only reaped $48. Flea mkt is no mean feat but we still had fun... :)

Other than the letter assuring that the past year's toil and travail has not been in vain, it has been a week of unsettledness and jitters for me.

Environment, human, speech and my own emotions never felt so obscure before, as though they have never prevailed.

Perhaps it's disorientation. Perhaps I'm mazed. Perhaps I'm absorbed into multiple facets of myself.

I have to do things I've never or imagined I would have done before. I abhor it but I have to do it. I really don't wish to do it but I have to do it.

Will I be truly requited? Will they reciprocate my intentions? They have to let me know else I'll start to condemn myself.

Is it obligatory to think like this? Was there an option given to me in the first place?

Adapt and accommodate are the remedies.

I know I can do this.

I have to be.

forgiveness

The best thing to give to your enemy is forgiveness; to an opponent, tolerance; to a friend, your heart; to your child, a good example; to a father, deference; to your mother, conduct that will make her proud of you; to yourself, respect; to all men, charity.

-Francis Maitland Balfour

Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take but by the moments that take your breaths away.

I cannot concur more, totally.

Thank you Yiwen, for sharing this awe-inspiring quote.

Breakout 2010

I just caught BREAKOUT with sisters Theresa and Wendy and it was truly an enthralling performance filled with intense energies from each and every striving performer. Kudos to them!

a touch of artistry

It just felt like re-entering that intense phase of my life years ago, surreal yet wholesome. :)

moments

These moments...

Every single ticking is priceless.

It seems like immortality.

It captures modest and genuine merriment.

It realises gratifying mind.

It encored melodiously.

Moments to grab hold and embrace...
