4 ears, 2 years

Two years have passed since you first said "I love you"

Two years have passed since you've been in my life

Two years have passed and I've realized how much more wonderful my life is with you in it

Two years have passed and I've realized how much I need you

Two years have passed and I know deep down I never want to be without you

Two years have passed and I know that I would give up my own happiness to see you happy

Two years have passed since we've been together and I'm looking forward to more...

I love you


Here's to counting down to 1000 days :)

I wanna look like this....

.... when I'm pregnant :P

I know, I know, long shot... but isn't she just absolutely glowing? :)

A story of time... and love

Once upon a time, there was an island where all feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others including Love.

One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all repaired their boats and left. Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to persevere until the last possible moment.

When the island was almost sinking, Love decided to ask for help. Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said, "Richness, can you take me with you?" Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."

Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel."Vanity, please help me!" "I can't help you Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity answered.

Sadness was close by so Love asked for help, "Sadness, let me Go with you." "Oh... Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!"

Happiness passed by Love too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her!

Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come Love, I will take you." It was an elder. Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that he even forgot to ask the elder her name.

When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way.

Love realizing how much he owed the elder asked Knowledge, another elder, "Who helped me?" "It was Time," Knowledge answered. "Time?" asked. Love. "But why did Time help me?"

Knowledge smiled with deep Wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how great Love is.

"Bring out the love in your life --- and see what happens

"Jealousy is the foundation of lack of self-esteem…

I believe in you, even if no one understands

I stumbled across this video today... and it just reminded me of how I'm sticking by him no matter. I don't know what it is but I have always just believed in him and his passions. Corny as it sounds, even when the world was against him saying that it's not gonna work, give up, get a real job and all that stuff... even if part of me wanted to say that to him too, a bigger part of me believed that we should always reach for the stars.

Not many people have the ability and strength (not to mention the means) to be able to quit the rat race and go for your dreams... and he does.

So as a believer in dreams coming true... of course I support him! :)



The Calling - Stigmatized
If I give up on you I give up on me
If we fight what's true, will we ever be
Even God himself and the faith I knew
Shouldn't hold me back, shouldn't keep me from you

Tease me, by holding out your hand
Then leave me, or take me as I am
And live our lives, stigmatized

I can feel the blood rushing though my veins
When I hear your voice, driving me insane
Hour after hour day after day
Every lonely night that I sit and pray

We live our lives on different sides,
But we keep together you and I
Just live our lives, stigmatized

We'll live our lives,
We'll take the punches everyday
We'll live our lives
I know we're gonna find our way

I believe in you
Even if no one understands
I Believe in you, and I don't really give a damn, stigmatized

We live our lives on different sides
But we keep together you and I
We live our lives on different sides
We're gonna live our lives
Gotta live our lives
We're gonna live our lives
We're gonna live our lives,
Gonna live our lives,
Stigmatized

insecurities

I told you so. In an earlier post I was saying that I just don't get to spend enough time at home now. I really do feel guilty.

As a result... the yearning, and mostly guilt manifested in my dream.

I dreamt that I was away on a weekened assignment (as I do quite often these few months) and it got canceled, so I came home. Only to find my largest insecurity come to life (well just in my dream).

In the dream I asked him why. He told me that since I'm always at work and all, he got bored.

To dream that your mate, spouse, or significant other is cheating on you, indicates your fears of being abandoned. You may feel a lack of attention in the relationship. Alternatively, you may feel that you are not measuring up to the expectations of others. This notion may stem from issues of trust or self-esteem. The dream could also indicate that you are unconsciously picking up hints and cues that your significant other is not being completely truthful or is not fully committed in the relationship.

I'm pretty sure it is just the self esteem and all that, since I'm not spending enough time.

Bleh.

Improve your life!

I have been so busy with work the last few weeks that I have been going home late, and not spending enough personal time - not just with myself but with my mom, the puppy and our kids....

If you really calculate the hours, it's not that much of a difference. But because I'm spending so much time and effort at work, I just get so tired when I get home that I don't want to move...

Anyways, I got this via email a while back and I thought that I should post it up... and read it occasionally. This was apparently written by Randy Pausch in a letter to his wife and three beautiful children to follow.

POINTS ON HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR LIFE

Personality:
1. Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
2. Don't have negative thoughts of things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment
3. Don't over do; keep your limits
4. Don't take yourself so seriously; no one else does
5. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip
6. Dream more while you are awake
7. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need..
8. Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your partner of his/her mistakes of the past. That will ruin your present happiness.
9. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't hate others.
10. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present
11. No one is in charge of your happiness except you
12. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.
13. Smile and laugh more
14. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

Community:
15. Call your family often
16. Each day give something good to others
17. Forgive everyone for everything
18. Spend time with people over the age of 70 & under the age of 6
19. Try to make at least three people smile each day
20. What other people think of you is none of your business
21. Your job will not take care of you when you are sick. Your family and friends will. Stay in touch.

Life:
22. Put GOD first in anything and everything that you think, say and do.
23. GOD heals everything
24. Do the right things
25. However good or bad a situation is, it will change
26. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up
27. The best is yet to come
28. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful
29. When you awake alive in the morning, thank GOD for it
30. If you know GOD you will always be happy. So, be happy.

While you practice all of the above, share this knowledge with the people you love, people you school with, people you play with, people you work with and people you live with.

Not only will it enrich YOUR life, but also that of those around you.

Lunch with Dr Perricone

They launched their new eye gel - Cold Plasma today over a healthy lunch at the Mandarin Oriental, Kuala Lumpur.

I only have one thing to say. Well two things.

A. Launch was trying to be classy and all, but dammit the product stinks like no other! Dr Perricone believes in getting the best of your skin in three ways: through diet, nutriceutical supplements, and his award-winning line of skin care products and cosmeceuticals. Doing so, there are no artificial fragrances and all that nonsense in the products.

Cold Plasma, has DHA in it a.k.a fish oils!!! Garrrghhhhh. It actually smelt like dead fish! It was THAT horrid!!!

B. Healthy food isn't that all bad after all... but heck gimme regular food any day! On the same note, I loved the appetizer and entree.... not too crazy about the main and dessert...

Anyways, here you some food pix! :)

Our menu for the day

I found this to be interesting. Organic tomato consomme with tomato gazpacho caviar. I didn't know it was cold and they served it in a martini glass! How cool is that!!!

The forbidden bread basket. Bad carbs!!! But tasted oh so heavenly *swoon*

The entree - smoked salmon salad with aragula leaves, sliced almonds and cantaloupe compression.
p/s: LOVED this!

Macadamia seared halibut with eggplant caviar, grapefruit clams fricasse and a lemon chive dressing.

Almond grapefruit financier with yoghurt sorbet and cranberry reduction.

this shouldn't be happening

I'm having paranoid dream attacks. Two nights in a row...

It's very subtle, but it's there.

This shouldn't be happening now... not now... not after all that has happened, not after all that we've worked on, not after what we have been through.

I really pray it's just my conscienceness playing a game with me... I really do

Make A Wish

Did you ever want to make a wish and hope it happens? Try Leo Burnett's Make A Wish. It just might come true!!! :)

Here's mine!

having kids

The puppy and I were discussing this article we read about spirituality and that how this guy theorized that having kids is just this way of the devil suckering us into getting more people into this world where all that happens is suffering, growing old and dying.

I do agree with the article at one point because, let's put it this way, we're not entirely enjoying ourselves in this world - we're always worrying and wondering what will happen, the responsibilities of bringing another life into this world

Then he said "You know, that is kinda true... why do people want kids anyways? To feed their egos! To take care of them! Because our forefathers had already done that and implanted that thought in our minds,"

Which then made me wonder... how much is he agree with the article?

From what he's been telling me, he comes off as completely agreeing with the article and saying that we should just be responsible humans and not bring anymore humans into this world to suffer.......

*sigh*
