The Year of the Tiger

As I have said before how quickly time flies, the year of the tiger - my favourite is nearly gone!! I must today take this opportunity to write something about it as a tribute to all the endangered lovely Tigers. Otherwise I would have to wait for another 12 years for the special year of the tiger!! Just last month it was reported that highest living rare tigers found in the Himalayas. I was really thrilled when I heard the wonderful news.

New television footage has revealed tigers living more than 4,000 metres above sea level in the Himalayas.

Experts say it is the first real evidence that tigers normally found in jungle habitats can live and breed at such altitude.The BBC expedition team was filming in the remote Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan where they positioned dozens of hidden cameras on possible tiger trails.

When wildlife cameraman Gordon Buchanan returned to review the footage three months later, he was astonished. Caught on camera, in the snow, was a breeding pair. Experts believe it could improve their chances of creating what they call a conservation corridor, linking tiger populations across Asia.

The Gift of Miracles

Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. Anne Lamott Hope is the companion of power, and mother of success; for who so hopes strongly has within him the gift of miracles. Samuel Smiles Explore This Website

Courage & Strength

“Courage isn't having the strength to go on - it is going on when you don't have strength.” ~Napoleon Bonaparte~ “Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.” ~Mahatma Gandhi~ That was exactly what I had experienced, when it comes to my study! I had in many occasions needed to persuade, remind or even encourage myself in believing that "I can do it". My motto was that "I have no knowledge of this subject, I am here to learn!". After going through the ups and downs plus nearly two years off study; in September this year I finally graduated.

Faith, Hope & Love

I like this picture which is so beautiful taken from our garden! I do believe the divine power of God teach us to grow in a good way. To appreciate the beauty of nature and importantly the ability to overcome difficulties and obstacles to always carry God's word with life. Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. Matthew 11:28-30 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity. Proverbs 17:17
