its the busiest month of the year..
experienced a wide spectrum of emotions the last 2 days..
spoke to her and i felt so much pain knowing that even swallowin water was painful.. I wish I could help in some way but all I could do was listen and say words of comfort and pray for her.. I hope she recovers.. I really hope so..
and as I drove home.. i made a call to L ..
I asked.. sleeping??
No.. I'm in the hospital..
.. are you ok?
Not quite , my mum's dying..
(shux.. i said to myself in my mind)
You mean like now, now??
Yes right at this moment...
I'd probably never forget this conversation..
I felt the pain in his teary voice and I felt so bad that I could do nothing..
tears welled up naturally knowing the situation he was in even when I had never known his mum.
The idea of life and death remains unexplainable.. yes its not for us to explain.. but the thought of it scares me, knowing that one day.. my parents would be taken away from me.. e thought just irks thru my insides and this is simply a fact of life that everyone has to go thru.. no matter the age.. 10, 30, 50... the thought of losing someone you love can break anyone down.
Well.. this is life isn't it.. and life's a journey that we should never take for granted and i'm constantly trying to bridge the gap that was created sometime ago with my beloved parents. For some years, I was aloof, could find no connection with them, knew they were impt but constantly took them for granted.. and I'm glad I've made that choice to embrak on my journey of change. It's not easy but it's necessary..
Life's too short to have any regrets..
no more if only I did this or that from now..

perfect bids imperfect goodbye.
u sit and wonder if you're having the best or if you could get better..
and u ponder without ceasing , questioning every possible aspect...
and then that day comes when perfect finds you and you wonder how come u never found imperfect again.
So why wait.. just let perfect know that you've lost touch with imprefect and that perfect's the best one cld ever have..

Gone too soon
"Gone Too Soon"
Like A Comet
Blazing 'Cross The Evening Sky
Gone Too Soon
Like A Rainbow
Fading In The Twinkling Of An Eye
Gone Too Soon
Shiny And Sparkly
And Splendidly Bright
Here One Day
Gone One Night
Like The Loss Of Sunlight
On A Cloudy Afternoon
Gone Too Soon
Like A Castle
Built Upon A Sandy Beach
Gone Too Soon
Like A Perfect Flower
That Is Just Beyond Your Reach
Gone Too Soon
Born To Amuse, To Inspire, To Delight
Here One Day
Gone One Night
Like A Sunset
Dying With The Rising Of The Moon
Gone Too Soon

supper chat~
went for late night supper over a milo-peng w the GTI friend..
talked about work, hols, cars and went round and round when it came to the topic of LIFE. something so simple yet having millions of varieties.
Finding a greater purpose in life,
money maybe impt,
quality of life too,
but there's something amiss.
my supper 'shrink' assessed the situation and injected bits of his quick analysis to narrow down to a few solutions..
Solutions didnt quite work but...
As I talked.. understood myself better..
Ha.. the world wasn't created for me to be alone in it ..was it!
a listening ear's a good aid sometimes.. =) (a patient listener for that matter)
Thanks D~!

MICHAEL JACKSON
His name gives me a different feel when I know he's gone.
For years and years.. prob my entire lifetime.. I've grown up listening to his songs, over my mum's favourite radio station, in the car, at home..
It was his concert I first attended in 1993 .. while I was still in Primary School..
His songs were used in School sing-a-thons.. my class sang Heal the World.. His MTV's always delighted me with those moves..
For years he was out of the limelight after the Molestation case.. but no matter how the news and reporters speculated, I always believed he was innocent..
For someone that helped out in 30 over charities, touched millions of lives around the world.. it was good to speculate that he was everything Bad..
Anyhow.. I went online to read up about the news over the weekend and viewed many of His concert performances as well as when he was in the studio recording his songs..
His voice, His smile...
and His big and full and seemingly empty Heart..
No matter how wacko this jacko may have been..
He was my first idol and will always be the most special artist to me.
My tribute to MICHAEL JACKSON.
29th August 1958 - 25th June 2009.

back from the camp..
it was awesome.. it's never crap when it's God's work ...
well.. the camp plans may've been last minute.. and we may've put in less effort and more last min injections..
but He's got a way of making it simply ay ok..
The kids shared about how they were touched and how this camp was different from last year and better.. I'm glad this has made a difference to their lives..
now that 1 big thing has passed I've got a month of July to get the act together again and clear up the work before I fly..
Haven't told boss yet.. yikes!!
Better do it soon!!
