The Guardian


If you have the time to catch a movie, maybe you may wanna watch this one : The Guardian

Left work early yesterday, decided to go for a walk at the nearby shopping mall. Since it's a Wednesday, and the movie ticket is cheaper, so decided to go for a movie, then only shop for something for a Thailand colleague =)

The movie is fantastic ! To me it's better than other fiction movies. This one is a true story, and the best thing is, it's all about coast guards who saves lifes ! Never had I imagine there are people like this, we know there are policemen, there are doctors, there are the marines, but not everyone of us know about the coast guards. This is a story about people who dedicated their lifes to save others, they have to put through hardship from the first day of training, up to the day they are at real scene saving others. I like their motto too : So that others may live ... WOW ! I like this kinda movie, definitely better than superman return !

At the end of the movie, I was so touched, I am thinking of joining the coast guards very soon =)

Anyway, they kinda do the same thing as Jesus = Fisher of men (They help people who's in trouble at sea)

Ain't gonna share more about the movie, it's a must watch, go watch it yourself !

2 sides to a coin =)

There are 2 sides to a coin, sometimes life is the same ... a person can choose to show his/her happy side, cheerful side, but once you know his/her other side ... you may either be sad for that fellow, or you are amazed at his/her strength to overcome life =)

I admit, I have my other side of the coin as well ... who doesn't, the world is not a perfect place to stay =)

Sometimes we ask ourselves : WHY ME ! why bad things always happen to me ! why others have family to support them through their studies without any problems, why others have rich parents, and they don't even need to work hard to earn a living ? Why others are driving Japanese cars, and we have to drive local manufactured cars ? why why why ..... so many whys in this world.

But we never heard cries of others : WHY ME ! Why others have a perfect body to perform their daily life, but why am I born a disabled ? Why did my parents abandon me when I needed them most ? Why God sent me into this world to live a life that's full of suffering ? why why why .. the question continues ...

But then there are many other stories in the world that motivate us to even feel blessed with what we have =) Trust me, God use these people mightily too !

I was reading newspaper the other day, and I saw a picture of someone I knew from a disabled centre in Petaling Jaya. His name is Meng Lai, I got to know him when I went for a appreciation dinner, a special invitation for people who signed up as volunteers at the centre. I did sign up, but I never had the chance to help. It's just amazing to see how strong they are, even they are not so 'capable' like us. I tell you, some of us are not even half of them when it comes to the things they do, and the way the live their life. They never complaint about their short comings, but they live their life to the fullest. Meng Lai had to travel a fair distance to KLCC few days in a week just to sell some of the handicrafts produced at the centre to support the centre. He even got mistaken as a beggar !

So think twice before you ask God why your life is as such =)

Btw, if you have notice, there are many living stories surrounding us already. You may not notice, but sometimes people that we are living with, working with are already people that can shock you with their life stories ... which after all you say will be ... ' oh ... ok ... '

I'm learning how to appreciate what I have, I'm learning how to give thanks even in the hardest time of my life ... please continue to support me in your prayers.

God will make a way, when there seems to be no way =)

Nothing is forever ...

My Motto in life : Nothing is forever !

So many times I experienced, observed, heard people share about their life, that I come into conclusion that there's nothing in this world that is forever !

You can be so successful, but your success can never be forever ... unless u keep fighting till you die, if not you will bound to fall one day =(

You can be the EPL champion this year, but you cannot guarantee the same spot next year ... unless u flight again, but fighting hard sometimes doesn't mean you will win again, other teams can fight better too ... =(

You can make a good year, with great achievements, working your ass off ... but when another year comes again, the whole circle continues =(

You can be rich now, infact very rich now, but who can say you will still be rich in another 10 years, unless you know how to earn constant income, and spend lesser as your grow old, but that won't be the case, you know and I know too =(

You can own the latest technology in the market with the latest MP3, mobile phones, laptops, cars, soccer boots ... etc .. but you clearly know glories like this will not last, sometimes it will not last even for a month ...

You can say you are in love, crazy in love, and handling your relationship greatly, but let's be real, there are still many hearts broken ..

You may just solve a major issue in your life, and you said you are glad it's finally over ... but when the same issue comes again, even though you have the experience ... especially it took you years to solve, do you think you still have the strength to overcome again ?

Well these are just examples of how life treats us sometimes =) I would rather say, these are the challenges in life that keeps us living. God placed us here in this material world so to prepare us for heaven, this I believe even more after 28 years of living ... what is life when there are no hardships to mold us into a better being ... beautiful memories are there for us to cherish, and hardships are there to build our characters, build our spirit, build our life story =)

Friends, some of us just cannot understand why we keep facings hardships while others are having the time of their life. Some of us keep asking God why others have better blessings than us, some of us is constantly praying for things we don't actually need, but things that we really need we never ask from God. We asked for new car, new house, new mobile phone, but we never ask for love, peace & joy for the world.

God has His own purpose in our life, and sometimes it takes a longer time to reveal .. guess we just have to be patient, and wait while we learn how to live =)

Lastly, everytime I tell YS that nothing is forever, she will say : Nothing is forever, but God is forever =)

Have A great week ahead !!

Golden year of 2007 !

Been playing football for more than 10 years now ... scored so many goals, made so many beautiful crosses, but never get the chance to win the golden boots award ..

So since the golden boots award is something I will never get, I went out and got my own pair of golden boots ... If I'm not mistaken, Zidane was wearing this pair during his famous headbud in the world cup last year ...

Can't wait to have my 'opening ceremony' of my golden boots this Sunday ... what else to say, the golden year of 2007 starts now baby !!

Thank you very much =)
