Racism...

A black dude walks into a cafe early one morning and notices
he's the only black one there. As he sat down he noticed a white
man sitting behind him, the white man said "coloured people aren't
allowed in here. " the black man replied "when i was born i was
black, when I'm sick I'm black, when i go in the sun i'm black,
when I'm cold I'm black, when I die i'll be black, but you
sir... when you were born you were pink, when you are sick you are
green, when you stay in the sun you are red, when you are cold you turn
blue, and when you die you turn purple! and yet you have the
nerve to call me colored!"

If you are against racism pass this on.

Touching...

*By other author...

I was born in a secluded village on a mountain. Day by day, my parents plowed the yellow dry soil with their backs towards the sky. I have a brother who is 3 years younger than me.

I wanted to buy a handkerchief, which all girls around me seemed to have. So, one day I stole 50 cents from my father's drawer. Father had discovered about the stolen money right away. He made me and my younger brother kneel against the wall as he held a bamboo stick in his hand.

"Who stole the money?" he asked.

I was stunned, too afraid to talk. Neither of us admitted to the fault, so he said,

"Fine, if nobody wants to admit, you two should be beaten!"

He lifted up the bamboo stick. Suddenly, my younger brother gripped father's hand and said,

"Dad, I was the one who did it!"

The long stick smacked my brother's back repeatedly. Father was so angry that he kept on whipping my brother until he lost his breath. After that, he sat down on our stone bed and scolded my brother,

"You have learned to steal from your own house now. What other embarrassing things will you be possibly doing in the future? You should be beaten to death, you shameless thief!"

That night, my mother and I hugged my brother. His body was full of wounds from the beating but he never shed a single tear. In the middle of the night, all of sudden, I cried out loudly. My brother covered my mouth with his little hand and said,

"Sis, now don't cry anymore. Everything has happened."

I still hate myself for not having enough courage to admit what I did.
Years gone by, but the incident still seemed like it just happened yesterday. I will never forget my brother's expression when he protected me.

That year, my brother was 8 years old and I was 11 years old.

When my brother was in his last year of secondary school, he was accepted in an upper secondary school in the central. At the same time, I was accepted into a university in the province. That night, father squatted in the yard, smoking, packet by packet. I could hear him ask my mother,

"Both of our children, they have good results? very good results?" Mother wiped off her tears and sighed," What is the use? How can we possibly finance both of them?"

At that time, my brother walked out, he stood in front of father and said,

"Dad, I don't want to continue my study anymore, I have read enough books."

Father swung his hand and slapped my brother on his face.

"Why do you have a spirit so damn weak? Even if it means I have to beg for money on the streets, I will send you two to school until you have both finished your study!"

And then, he started to knock on every house in the village to borrow money. I stuck out my hand as gently as I can to my brother's swollen face, and told him,

"A boy has to continue his study. If not, he will not be able to overcome this poverty we are experiencing." I, on the other hand, had decided not to further my study at the university.

Nobody knew that on the next day, before dawn, my brother left the house with a few pieces of worn-out clothes and a few dry beans. He sneaked to my side of the bed and left a note on my pillow;

"Sis, getting into a university is not easy. I will go find a job and I will send money to you." I held the note while sitting on my bed, and cried until I lost my voice.

That year, my brother was 17 years old; I was 20 years old.

With the money father borrowed from the whole village, and the money my brother earned from carrying cement on his back at a construction site, finally, I managed to get to the third year of my study in the university. One day, while I was studying in my room, my roommate came in and told me,

"There's a villager waiting for you outside!"

Why would there be a villager looking for me? I walked out, and I saw my brother from afar. His whole body was covered with dirt, dust, cement and sand. I asked him,

"Why did you not tell my roommate that you are my brother?" He replied with a smile," Look at my appearance. What will they think if they would know that I am your brother? Won't they laugh at you?"

I felt so touched, and tears filled my eyes. I swept away dirt and dust from my brother's body. And told him with a lump in my throat,

"I don't care what people would say! You are my brother no matter what your appearance is?"

From his pocket, he took out a butterfly hair clip. He put it on my hair and said,

"I saw all the girls in town are wearing it. So, I think you should also have one."

I could not hold back myself anymore. I pulled my brother into my arms and cried.
That year, my brother was 20 years old; I was 23 years old.

I noticed that the broken window was repaired the first time I brought my boyfriend home. The house was scrubbed cleaned. After my boyfriend left, I danced like a little girl in front of my mother,

"Mom, you didn't have to spend so much time cleaning the house!"

But she told me with a smile,

"It was your brother who went home early to clean the house. Didn't you see the wound on his hand? He hurt his hand while he was replacing the window."

I went into my brother's bedroom. Looking at his thin face, I felt like there are hundreds of needle pricked in my heart. I applied some ointment on his wound and put a bandage on it,

"Does it hurt?" I asked him.
"No, it doesn't hurt. You know, when at the construction site, stones keep falling on my feet. Even that could not stop me from working." In the middle of the sentence, he stopped.

I turned my back on him and tears rolled down my face.

That year, my brother was 23 years old; I was 26 years old.

After I got married, I lived in the city. Many times my husband invited my parents to come and live with us, but they didn't want. They said, once they left the village, they wouldn't know what to do. My brother agreed with them. He said,

"Sis, you just take care of your parents-in-law. I will take care of mom and dad here."

My husband became the director of his factory. We asked my brother to accept the offer of being the manager in the maintenance department. But my brother rejected the offer. He insisted on working as a repairman instead for a start. One day, my brother was on the top of a ladder repairing a cable, when he got electrocuted, and was sent to the hospital. My husband and I visited him at the hospital. Looking at the white gypsum on his leg, I grumbled,

"Why did you reject the offer of being a manager? Managers won't do something dangerous like that. Now look at you, You are suffering a serious injury. Why didn't you just listen to us?"

With a serious expression on his face, he defended his decision,

"Think of brother-in-law. He just became the director, and I being uneducated, and would become a manager, what kind of rumors would fly around?"

My husband's eyes filled up with tears, and then I said,

"But you lack in education only because of me!"

"Why do you talk about the past?" he said and then he held my hand.

That year, he was 26 years old and I was 29 years old.

My brother was 30 years old when he married a farmer girl from the village. During the wedding reception, the master of ceremonies asked him,

"Who is the one person you respect and love the most?"

Without even taking a time to think, he answered,

"My sister."

He continued by telling a story I could not even remember.

"When I was in primary school, the school was in a different village. Everyday, my sister and I would walk for 2 hours to school and back home. One day, I lost the other pair of my gloves. My sister gave me one of hers. She wore only one glove and she had to walk far. When we got home, her hands were trembling because of the cold weather that she could not even hold her chopsticks. From that day on, I swore that as long as I live, I would take care of my sister and will always be good to her."

Applause filled up the room. All guests turned their attention to me. I found it hard to speak,

"In my whole life, the one I would like to thank most is my brother," And in this happy occasion, in front of the crowd, tears were rolling down my face again.

Love and care for the one you love every single days of your life. You may think what you did is just a small deed, but to that someone, it may mean a lot. Have a nice day everyone! May this story inspire you in any way!

Right Place, Right Time

Right Place, Right Time



Ecclesiastes 9:11
11The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to men of understanding, nor favour to men of skill; but time and chance happen to them all.



God’s Word tells us that being faster, stronger and wiser does not automatically make you a winner in life. No, it is actually being at the right place at the right time that causes you to receive blessings. And God, who holds time and chance in His hands, is the only one who can put you at the right place at the right time.

He did this for Ruth. Ruth trusted God for favour when she went looking for a field in which to glean. (Ruth 2:2) Then, the Bible tells us that “she happened to come to the part of the field belonging to Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech”. (Ruth 2:3) Of all the fields, she happened to end up in Boaz’s field, and he was a close relative of Elimelech, her father-in-law. This meant that Boaz was her potential kinsman redeemer, someone who could redeem her from her plight as a young, childless widow in a foreign land.

Boaz also happened to be “a man of great wealth” (Ruth 2:1), and as it turned out, he was willing to redeem Ruth. (Ruth 4:9–10) All these “right happenings” could only mean that God had placed Ruth in the right place at the right time.

I believe that the very day Ruth told her mother-in-law that the God of Israel would be her God (Ruth 1:16), God took note and made everything happen right for her.

Today, God also wants you to know that because you have said, “God, You are My God,” He will be your God of divine happenings. He will place you at the right place at the right time, where you will meet the right people, do the right things and even escape danger!

You may not know where all the great opportunities are, but God does. He is the one who put in you the skills, talents and gifts that you have, and He knows where you need to be, when you should be there and what you need to be doing to be truly satisfied!

~A Prayer for All Seasons~

Colossians 1:9-12
(9)For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. (10)And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, (11)being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully (12)giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light.

=~*~= As we spend time with God, we open ourselves to His work in our hearts and in our lives. Then, as we see Him working, we will want to know Him even more. We will want our prayer life to be all that it can be. What does that mean? How should we be praying?
In the Scripture, we find many models of prayer, and probably foremost is the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13). This wonderful example of prayer includes important elements of prayer. We find words of adoration, of submission to God's will, of petition, and in closing, of praise. We can learn much from the model our Lord gave when his disciples said, "Teach us to pray" (Luke 11:1).

* If you aren't praying for your friends daily, it is suggested that you use Colossians 1:9-12 as your model. Look at what you'll be asking God:
- That your friend will have the spiritual wisdom and understanding she needs to know God's will.
- That she will "walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him, in all respects".
- That she will be "strengthen with all power...for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience".

Thereafter, end your prayer by joyously giving thanks to God for all He has given you -- Your friend being one of those gifts. =~*~=

*Prayer pushes the light and hope into little dark corners of your life.*

~oh yah...~

oh yah...forgot to add on...dis afternoon after service i've been approached by Grace (our Youth Minister) to become a discipler for a couple of younger gals...i was like 'OH NO!!! are u sure???!!!'...obviously such reaction means i'm TOTALLY not prepared for it lor...but...since she has approached me...it means that most likely it's wat God wants her to ask me to do...which also means wat God wants me to do...sigh...i really hope i wun be a bad discipler...really not prepared at all lor...but 1 thing for sure...i feel that such arrangements will surely make me more closer to God and read more of His Word...y? cos during such period, i will need God and the wisdom to disciple them...i will also need to read up more to know what to teach and know how to answer questions...guess this is one way of how God is answering my prayers during those alter calls i went up to...hmmm...really pray hard that all will go fine...at this moment i will be waiting for Grace to assign me to 2 of the gals...wonder who...hmmm...guess i really need to strength for all these...
anyway, such signs of God's answers made me feel that His calling is becoming clearer...plus i really need to come back to God once again to serve Him wholeheartedly...
anyway, for people who do not know God or have yet to accept Him...let me tell you that u will really feel the peace if u were to believe in Him...and you will tend to experience unexpected miracles...He is just so great and wonderful...and the most important thing of all...He Loves us all! yes! He loves us!!! we are all created in His image...really...to all people...you will really experience a life changing phase if you truly believe in Him...trust me...i do admit many a times i'm tired of being a Christian...tired of this and that...do's and don'ts...many...but...i still hold on to my believe and still love God no matter wat...(although the devil still attacked me with many temptations)...guess i'm just not strong enough...but will build up myself on this...hmmm...yup..God is really great...I Love You Lord! heez...

> glass of water and asked, "how heavy is this glass of water? "
>
> Answers called out ranged from 20g to 500g.
>
> The lecturer replied, "the absolute weight doesn't matter." It depends on
> how long you try to hold it.
>
> If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem.
> If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my right arm.
> If I hold it for a day, you'll have to call an ambulance.
> In each case, it's the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier
> it becomes.
> And that's the way it is with stress management.
> If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, as the burden
> becomes increasingly heavy, we won't be able to carry on.
>
> As with the glass of water, you have to put it down for a while and rest
> before holding it again. When we're refreshed, we can carry on with the
> burden.
> So, before you return home tonight, put the burden of work down.
> Don't carry it home. You can pick it up tomorrow.
> Whatever burdens you're carrying now, let them down for a moment if you
> can.
> Relax; pick them up later after you've rested.
>
> Life is short. Enjoy it!
>
> And then he shared some ways of dealing with the burdens of life:
> * Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue.
>
> * Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them
>
> * Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle
> of it.
>
> * Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be recalled by their maker.
>
> * If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.
>
> * If you lend someone $20 and never see them again, it was probably worth
> it.
>
> * It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning
> to others.
>
> * Never buy a car you can't push.
>
> * Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you
> won't have a leg to stand on.
>
> * Since it's the early worm that gets eaten by the bird, sleep late.
>
> * The second mouse gets the cheese.
>
> * When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
>
> * Birthdays are good for you. The more you have, the longer you live.
>
> * You may be only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to
> one person.
>
> * Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
>
> * We could learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and
> some are dull. Some have weird names, and all are different colors, but
> they all have to live in the same box.
>
> A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.
>
> Have an awesome day and know that someone has thought about you today. . .

~stupid HAZE~

it just stink lah!!!

~2yrs liao~

oh yah...actually wana blog about this...but keep forgetting...now juz remembered. Today, 5th Oct 2006 is my 2nd yr in UOB as a perm staff doing management reporting...actually i'm in UOB for more than 2yrs...before being a perm i was a temp staff...hmmm...wow...times really past very fast...can't believe that i'm there for 2yrs liao...though pay still as little...and rank still the same...lowest...i really cant wait to graduate from uni lor...sigh...den still pondering whether to change job so as to achieve the position i should be getting (along with my experience) plus the pay i should be getting...cos i'm currently learning new things along the way...though is not a fast process of learning, at least ALOT faster and more things to learn than more than a yr ago before i came to this new dept...sigh...really in a dilemma...
anyway...though i did not learn much since i started this perm till afew months ago, i still wana give credit as to that i have actually grown alot and experienced alot...learning(though not alot) is a sure thing...i'm from someone who doesn't know what is and how to use Excel till now i feel i'm fairly good at it...cos i've been facing excel every working day lor...without fail! it's a benefit afterall i guess...love this job alot...dealing with the numbers and stuff (not accounting ar)...as for the environment...some are good...but some are really bad...however, ever since i've moved up and changed dept, i get to experience more of the ppl whom i think (heard from ppl) are ruthless or watsoever...but now i've got to know them, they are actually quite ok afterall...however, there are still exceptions...people here are super competitive...will try to push as much blame as possible so things will not look bad on them...but that's life i guess...cannot be avoided...cos it's due to each individual...i cant possibly change them...sigh...many will say this is the real world...but in the Christian context, this world we are living in now is just a temporary world...our REAL WORLD is in heaven!!! yay!!!heez...however, we are here so as to spread the Gospel and allow people to know of God's existence!and thereafter is their choice whether to accept Him or not...heez...yup...
k will stop here...back to work again...

Happy 2nd Yr Anniversary in UOB to mi!

take care n God Bless~
