Subject: happy with who i've become

it feels like my whole life has been full of losses. but more than ever i am so happy with the way i am too. ive learned so much about myself and am glad i can honestly say i respect myself. every loss we face is a moment we have survived. and everyday i feel like a stronger person because of those misfortunes. i dont know how i did it or how i will for the rest of my life. but without losses, i wouldnt know who i am right now. its a beautiful thing!

It's funny how losing everything helps you find yourself.So I'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has believed rumors, hated me, tormented me, screwed me over, and abandoned me this year. You made me who I am. And I finally love myself.

Frank--Today I begin my path to my happily ever after. The tears that your project has brought to my eyes have been healing, sorrowful, joyful, and sad. Most of all, they are reflections my life in others' secrets.As for my happily ever after, I'm not going to give up on it. For the first time in my life, I'm sticking to something until I find it, even if I have to go it alone, with just the help of the secrets I see on your site every Sunday. Step by step I'll get there, some smaller steps than others, but I'll get there.--Ashely

Aging...





Feli, thanks for this one... made my Monday more bearable, plus a Grande Latte from Starbucks!!... hahaha


George Carlin's Views on Aging


Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old is when we're kids?

If you're less than 10 years old, you're so excited about aging that you think in fractions. "How old are you?" "I'm four and a half!" You're never thirty-six and a half. You're four and a half, going on five! That's the key You get into your teens, now they can't hold you back. You jump to the next number, or even a few ahead.


"How old are you?" "I'm gonna be 16!" You could be 13, but hey, you're gonna be 16! And then the greatest day of your life . . . you become 21. Even the words sound like a ceremony YOU BECOME 21. YESSSS!!!


But then you turn 30. Oooohh, what happened there? Makes you sound like bad milk! He TURNED ; we had to throw him out. There's no fun now, you're Just a sour-dumpling. What's wrong? What's changed?You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, then you're PUSHING 40. Whoa! Put on the brakes, it's all slipping away. Before you know it, you REACH 50 and your dreams are gone

But wait!!! You MAKE it to 60. You didn't think you would!So you BECOME 21, TURN 30, PUSH 40, REACH 50 and MAKE it to 60. You've built up so much speed that you HIT 70! After that it's a day-by-day thing; you HIT !

You get into your 80s and every day is a complete cycle; you HIT lunch; you TURN 4:30 ; you REACH bedtime And it doesn't end there.


Into the 90s, you start going backwards; "I Was JUST 92." Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100, you become a little kid again. "I'm 100 and a half!" May you all make it to a healthy 100 and a half!!



HOW TO STAY YOUNG


1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay "them."

2. Keep only cheerful friends . The grouches pull you down.

3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer , crafts, gardening , whatever. Never let the brain idle. "An idle mind is the devil's workshop." And the devil's name is Alzheimer's.

4. Enjoy the simple things.

5. Laugh often, long and loud . Laugh until you gasp for breath.

6. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who is with us our entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.

7. Surround yourself with what you love, whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music , plants, hobbies , whatever. Your home is your refuge.

8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it . If it is unstable,improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.

9 Don't take guilt trips . Take a trip to the mall , even to the next county; to a foreign country but NOT to where the guilt is.

10.Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity. AND ALWAYS REMEMBER : Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away .


And if you don 't send this to at least 8 people - who cares???

But do share this with someone. We all need to live life to its fullest each day!!

Summer.. hhhmm, in Singapore?


Singapore is very much an island with tropical weather, not so much like Hawaii, but i would like to think, we're cool enough... where east meets west, although i can't say much for our Ms Universe contestants... *FAINT*

Everyday is summer here, it's either sunny or thunderstorm, and playing in the rain is the best thing ever...:D

Okie, SuperN, let me combine my stay in Matane with Lars during summer (although 18 degrees is not summer to me) and the summer here in Singapore... heheeh.

1. Eating caramel ice-cream cone with Lars while driving through town.

2. Eating fresh cold water-melons,mangoes and oranges after u come home from the hot sun!

3. Heavy platter of rain after a hot day!... and you pretend to walk slowly although home is just 10 steps away...hehehe

4. The trip to this garden, created by some people for delinquent kids to spend time other than doing other weird stuff.. they had nice berries to eat!!

5. Eating cherries, rasberries and strawberries in Lars garden! my first time doing it, and it was really really good!!..hahah

6. Taking a long cold shower, and no kids banging on the bathroom door at my sis place

7. How beautifully bright the sun is... and how much i would run to the nearest mall for some air-conditioning!!!!! kekekekek

8. Last but not least... after spending bitter cold winter in Canada, summer is always very much welcomed!
