People may make you bitter. But you can choose to be better! *** It is impossible to be bitter and get better at the same time. You have a choice to make. You can let each hurt or problem make you bitter or better. The decision is yours. How can a hurt or problem make you a better person? God does not bring hurts and wounds upon you, but once they are inflicted upon you, He is able to cause them to benefit you if you will trust Him to do so. (All things work out good for the kingdom of God) People are not prefect, therefore we hurt and disappoint each other. Go to Jesus with each old wound, and begin to receive His healing grace. When someone hurts you, take that new wound to Jesus. Dont let it fester. Take it to the Lord and be willing to handle it His way and not your own. - Beauty for ashes

What is the greatest architecture of our time? If you ask me, i would say its BRIDGE. Since young, i am always amazed and has a special likings on bridges. I do not understand why. I heard a story that says that you got to cross a bridge with someone you love, so that the relationship will be everlasting. The bridge is called 情人桥. You may find it hilarious like me probably. But come to think of it, it may not be fully wrong.. Jesus comes as a bridge that links us to God. He is the 情人桥 we have to cross so that our relationship can be everlasting. Not just the love between man and woman, but also brotherly and sisterly love, parents and children love, friendship love.. Cross the bridge, lest you fall into the deep blue sea.. ***** "Be my Bridge. You shall connect people together and you shall connect them to me." "But Lord, how am i able to do that? I am not eloquent, i am just quiet. Too quiet.. i do not know how to start off a conversation, i do not know what to say, wha...

There was this high achiever, very competent and smart. Changed quite a number of jobs because he was being head hunted by big companies. So there was this day, he was on his way for an interview with a bank, for a high position, of course. While at the platform of the train station, he saw a pickpocket tried to steal an old man wallet from his pocket. The pickpocket was so fast that this young man could not respond in time or to do anything about. So he went up to this old man and said, "Sir, your wallet has just been pickpocketed." Just then, the train reached the platform and the young man needs to board the train in order not to be late for his interview. So he turned back and said to the old man, "I am so sorry, i dont think i can be of any help to you." Saying that, he turned and went into the train. There were three seats infront of him when he was in the interview room. On the left side was the Managing Director of the bank. On the right side was the Account...

Its a drag to go from Ground zero to the 45th floor every morning. The lift has to stops in almost every level just to load and unload people. After last night prayer, i have made a conscious decision to be patient with things like this (actually only this) that has been irritating me ever since i started work at IP. Can you believe it! it will take me about 7mins to reach my office at 45th floor from level 1! I dont even wait so long for a train in the morning! ok.. so i asked God to help me remember i had prayed. So this morning, usual. The lift stops at almost every level to pick up passengers. I felt so irritated. Why must those irritating people press the lift? Why must i wait so long to get to my destination? (well, if you are in a clarity of mind, you can see that its no body's fault? the problem is ME - i dont own a private lift. hah) I began to feel frustrated. And you know, God always answers prayers. yea, i was reminded of the things i prayed. So i tell myself to cool do...

David killed Goliath with 5 stones and a sling. But why did David pick 5 stones where there was only one giant? He has no faith? Thinking that if he missed one, he still have four more chances?? If you read the story further in 2Samuel, you will realised that Goliath had 4 sons. That means, there were 5 giants! Which means to say, David wanted to kill the 5 giants all at one shot! He has faith. Great faith! And his faith is specific. 5 giants, 5 stones. He didnt go by the natural, bring 5 stones to kill 1 giant - flawed faith. He didnt presume that he could kill more than 5 giants - presumptuous faith. He has faith. And his faith is specific. Dont be frustrated when you see the problems. Take one giant at a time.

I was reading a book this morning, and i felt this story is good! While hopping about one day, a frog happened to slip into a very large pothole along a country road. All of his attempts at jumping out were in vain. Soon a rabbit came upon the frog trapped in the hole and offered to help him out. He, too, failed. After various animals from the forest made three or four gallant attempts to help the poor frog out, they finally gave up. "We'll go back and get you some food," they said. "It looks like you're going to be here for a while." However, not long after, they took off to get food, they heard the frog hopping along after them. They couldnt believe it! "We thought you couldnt get out!" they exclaimed. "Oh, i couldnt," replied the frog. "But you see, there was a big truck coming right at me, and I HAD TO." (compliments: Attitude 101 - J C Maxwell. Thanks to Kevin for lending me the book) As long as we have acceptable options, ...

I overheard a conversation in the lift today. It goes like this... Man: "what are you listening to?" Woman: "songs lo..." Any answer lamer than that?!? conclusion: 1. The woman does not understand what the man is asking. (maybe thats why man and woman are still trying to understand each other! haha. Hmm.. actually not neccessary though, sometimes it happens with man-man, woman-woman. hee) 2. The man is not specific in his asking. So the woman is not wrong with her answer also. 3. But common sense tells us that what the man meant was, "what songs are you listening to?" (if i know that you SAW me listening to a MP3 player, of course i would anticipate that you are actually asking me what songs im listening to! - its like: you see me sitting infront of a big TV watching a programme. "What are you watching?" "TV." ~.~"' hello?? anybody home?? The TV not big enough? duh) 4. Lame question, lame answer. (you get what you give. Give pe...

Reading the creation of the world in Genesis on the top of the world... is splendid. Standing on the 45th floor, with the magnificient seaview and the full horizon in sight, the word of God manifested its flesh right before my eyes. "Then God said, "Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear": and it was so." Scientist said the age of the earth is in its millions. I do not believe it as first, thinking the earth would be the most 6000+ years old. But after reading the bible, why not? God created the whole world in 6 days. 1 day in heaven is 1000 days on earth. Which means to say, the earth would be at least 6000-year old before God rested on the 7th day. Think: 1. God created the greenery. Gen 1:11 "Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth"; vs12 and it was so. And...

my dear bought me No.20 Archie comic today. so sweet. I love every bits of Archies! Thank you! thank you! THANK YOU!!!!!! A couple of strips caught me. Here's one, i find it rather... er.. humoruous. (you may beg to differ) Little Reggie saying to Little Archie and Little Jughead: "A peanut sat on a railroad track-- his heart was all aflutter! A train came along the way-- Toot! Toot! PEANUT BUTTER!" (HAHahhaHAHAHha..) er.. not funny? hee. maybe you need to understand the character of Reggie in order to see the humorous line of this gag. anyway. i learnt something too! Little Jinx: (happily, leaping with joy) Well, Charley! I made it! I got promoted! Charley: I feel funny, little Jinx! I thought our teacher didnt like me, but I've changed my mind.. Little Jinx: Oh, really, Charley, why? Charley: I overheard her talking about me to another teacher.. She said it was the happiest day of her life when i was promoted to the next grade. Little Jinx pengz. True as it may be. ...

I.Q = Intelligent Quotient A.Q = Attitude Quotient A Yale University present some years ago gave an advice to a former present of Ohio state: Always be kind to your A and B student. Someday one of them will return to your campus as a good professor. And also be kind to your C students. Someday one of them will return and build a two-million-dollar science laboratory. *** Wow, wOW and WOW! what a powerful speech. There's always hope for those who doesnt do well academically! (but well, please dont use this as a leeway not to work hard!) There is very little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative. But i feel that this story can bring another message too. Dont just persue life. You may be at the top of everything, i.e. a very successful career, top student in school, ace relationship with family and friends.. but yet, persue the life Giver, who can give you mor...

Attitude is really about how a person is. That overflows into how he acts. Here's a story to share... A grandpa and a grandma visit their grandchildren very often. Each afternoon the grandpa will lie down for a nap. One day, as a practical joke, the kids decided to put Limburger cheese in this mustache. Quite soon he awoke sniffing. "Why, this room stinks.." he exclaimed as he got up and went out into the kitchen., He wasnt there long until he decided that the kitchen smelled too, so he walked outdoors for a breathe of fresh air. Much to grandpa's surprise, the open air brought no relief, and he proclaimed, "The whole world stinks" Isnt it so true? We carry "Limburger cheese" in our attitudes, the whole world smells bad. We are individually responsible for our view of life. Truth has contained in the scripture, "For whatever a man sow, he will surely reap". Our attitude toward and action in life help determine what happens to us. Life is ...

I came across an article yesterday in Her World magazine. Was fuming mad when i read it. How on earth such people exist in here?! Its a long article, but want to blog it out and share with you guys and gals, Please, when you become rich one day, dont become like this.. *** "What rich women do to stay rich" A young woman walks into a high-end boutique and picks up five dresses but pays only for two. Two doors away is her regular jeweller, where she tries on a necklace and matching set of earrings. She pays only for the necklace, and waltzes out the door with the gold and diamond chandelier earrings swinging off her ears. At the makeup counter in the department store, she tries everything, buys nothing, then leaves with a bag full of samples - all in full sizes. Then its off to her plastic surgeon's clinic, where she;s booked for a Botox and microdermabrasion session. She emerges hours later with a fresh new face and no intention of paying for the procedures. "I'll...

爱，是什么颜色？ 浪漫热情的红色？ 辛福快乐的黄色？ 舒适迷情的橙色？ 和谐清澈的禄色？ 稳定忠诚的蓝色？ 独立奢侈的紫色？ 单纯完美的白色？ 深而奥秘的黑色？ 我说啊。。 爱，是无色。 透而清晰，毫无遐思，100%的纯洁。 让人看得彻底，看得清楚。 就是这样，简简单单。 简单爱。 在为这个blog做些research时，偶然的发现一个网站关于颜色。蛮好的。瞧一瞧！ http://www.mariaclaudiacortes.com/colors/Colors.html *** 教我如何去爱你。 我还在学习。

Today is my bloggy 2nd birthday. Happy birthday metamorphoziz.blogspot.com! Nothing to blog.. but just want to share a pic of my friend.. I love this pic! So cute and innocent!! *** Life is great, so flaunt it!

Its FOP again. Been a long time since i went for FOP. for the past 3 years, i think? Reached indoor at 6pm, doors has already opened, and the queue was huge. Was directed to the balcony, but managed to find 3 seats on the "T" section. Diagonally from the stage. far far away. But gave up my seat and went to sit with Pascale's friends - Yanqi, Peihua and Poh Lin at the balcony. First time at the balcony. lots of new songs by Hillsong and Delirious. Cant see the screen, cant catch the lyrics. Enjoy though. Atmosphere no good. But the presence of God is there. I can feel it. Strange. haa. Lesson learnt: Atmosphere can be created. Presence cannot. God is real, you cant denied it. After the meeting, met this man, Mr Wilson Tan. His stories are truly inspirational. Saved at the age of 17. By the age of 32, he was a general manager of a American company earning thousands. A man without any degree qualifications. Spectaculated in shares, earned his millions. Couple of millions in...

可可沉醉在这世外桃源，依偎着百年老树，沉睡了。 这里没有忙碌的声音，也没有嘈杂的人群。 只有自由的鸟儿在天上唱出快乐的曲调，风儿在耳里轻轻地吹着丝丝的温柔。 在这里，除了 的宁静，还是宁静。 不知不觉，可可已睡上了一整天。 一棵白雏菊落在她的手心上，把她给叫醒了。 可可擦了擦眼睛，顿时的美好，好像一场梦。 “如果是场梦，那就别让我醒来吧！”她囔囔的祈祷着。 这时，肚子的音乐奏起来了。 “喔！我有一天没吃东西了！” 她抬头一看，果然，这颗百年老树并没让她失望。 树上红嫩嫩的果实真让她感觉到饿了。 “怎么办？那么高，难道爬吗？” 她东望望，西望望，希望能有个绅士骑着白马的出现，帮她解决问题。 “天啊，半个人影都没有。。看样子，只好自己来吧。。” 她便抓紧了强壮的树干，慢慢地爬上树去。 最靠近的果实好像在千里外，怎么抓也抓不着。 “再申出一点点。。。差一点点。。再一点点。。。啊！！！！” ‘哗啦！’的一声，可可似在滑梯上，滑了下来，落在草地上。 “呼。。 好痛。。” 还来不及安慰自己，突然，眼前出现了一只手。。 就在这里，她遇见了他。。 ***待续

可可随着蝴蝶的踪迹，来到了另一个国度。。。 幽幽的山，碌碌的叶，还有五颜六色美丽的鲜花散发着清新的花香。。感觉好舒服，风景十分迷人。可可第一时间就爱上了这个地方。 那天的天气十分凉爽，风儿轻轻地吹，草啊，花儿啊，都翩翩起舞来了！可可想到处逛逛，想把这里的一切美好都牢牢记在心里。她来到了一棵百年老树，他那宽大的树木舒展了他的安全感与慈祥，好有亲切感。可可顿时投入了他的怀抱，安慰，与成全。。眼泪不知不觉地流了出来。 突然间，一阵风儿轻轻地吹过，一朵一朵的白雏菊似雪一样的飘落了下来，柔柔地淋在可可的身上，解放了她的忧伤。 上天好像在告诉可可他与她同在，可可并没有被舍弃。他呼唤了风，把可可的忧伤与烦恼像白雏菊班，随风而逝。 可可发现这里十分安静。这里的人都不说话。他们是用手语来沟通的。 原来，可可来到了哑巴国。 ***待续

i was reading a book in the train today and i came across something goood! Proabably some of you might have seen this before, but i felt we should always remember this! *** People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered - love them anyway. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives - do good anyway. If you're successful, you'll win false friends and true enemies - succeed anyway. The good you do today will perhaps be forgotten tomorrow - do good anyway. Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable - be honest and frank anyway. The biggest man with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest man with the smallest mind - think big anyway. People favor underdogs but follow only hot dogs - fight for a few underdogs anyway. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight - build anyway. People really need help but may attack you if you need help - help them anyway. Give the world the best that you have and you will get kicked in the teeth ...

i remembered the day when tears flowed like river... it never run dry.. *** "remember the prayer that you prayed? You wanted to grow, you wanted to have a breakthrough? Thats why you are going through what you are going through now. You will grow after you breakthrough from all these problems. YOU WILL GROW! Be strong and of good courage, knowing that i am conquering it with you. i am with you from the beginning till now, and will be. My mercy never fails. Just keep on doing the work that i have started in you" "Lord, i have done so many things that have let You down. I have done so many things wrong in Your sight. I deserved to be put down, i dont deserve what i have right now... i have messed it up.. You should have put me down and stripped me off my crown...." "because i love you..." *weeps* "Lord its too much that i could bear. Im tired. i just cant bring myself to carry on. I hated all these.. I just want the simplicity of You..." "The ...

Talking about anger. Im pretty angry with certain things recently too; To summarise, betrayed. utterly betrayed. To think someone who you trusted so much can be so mean to you. How would you feel when someone indirectly trying to directly demean you? oh... im picking up a new life. I am beautiful no matter what they say, words can bring me down! *** Anger. Where does it start? Where does it end? We can always be angry with 101 things.. To forgive, its just a "sooner" or "later" thing. So why not make it fast? Set yourself free and others as well, and carry on with our happy life. Dinner time turned up to be supper time. 1. I was upset by the incident, too. But well, the gathering was not as often as it used to be, so why not chose to keep the atmosphere cool and enjoyable. I tried so hard to talk to him, but towards the end of the fellowship, i felt anger drained away from me. Probably my "ren gong" is better. 2. Sometimes people takes longer time to reali...
