Earth's Loveliness

Don't strew me with roses

after I'm dead.
When Death claims

the light of my brow,
No flowers of life

will cheer me: instead
You may give me my roses now!

Thomas F. Healey

My soul can find no staircase
to Heaven unless it be through
Earth's loveliness.
Michelangelo Buonardo

The beauty of the world
has two edges,
one of laughter, one of anguish,
cutting the heart asunder.
Virginia Woolf

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
