Hey friends. I know, I know ~ I have not been around here for many moons! If you are @ Facebook, do look for me: ivychiew263@yahoo.com. Let me know who you are and I will gladly add you.
Happy moments, praise God. Difficult moments, seek God. Quiet moments, worship God. Painful moments, trust God. Every moment, thank God.
Having money does not always brings happiness; but having a clear conscience definitely brings a peace of mind. Tranquility comes when the mind concentrates. Practice being content; your world will be worry-free. Don't make light of oneself because everyone has limitless potential. Hardship and difficulties in dealing with people and events are a kind of test. They are like a piece of jade that needs to be polished on a rough stone for luster to shine forth. Only when knowledge is thoughtfully absorbed, can it become your own wisdom. Only when you respect yourself can you have the courage to humble yourself.
Yesterday is a cancelled check; tomorrow is a promissory note; today is the only cash you have, so spend it wisely.
Anyone can catch my eye, but it takes someone special to catch my heart. No one falls in love by choice, it is by CHANCE. No one stays in love by chance, it is by WORK. And no one falls out of love by chance, it is by CHOICE. I just love this quote: To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket--safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. --C.S. Lewis
I'm a lime that's zesty. I think. :P Seriously, I'm actually not much of a social butterfly but more of a shy wallflower. Do have and appreciate a good sense of humour. I prefer to dress casually. I'm at ease when I'm comfortable with who's with me. I've a nice smile and make a loyal friend. Have trouble expressing myself ~ be it verbally, thru actions or with pen and paper. I can be quite a bore! When it comes to certain issues of life, I stick to my gun pretty well. You know, can be quite old-fashioned in my thinking, sensitive and narrow-minded. One more thing. Am neither pretty nor ugly and most certainly not pretty ugly.
I canNOT do without coffee esp in the morns! I canNOT do without cold drinks even if it's just plain mineral water! I love spuds very much! Yes, P-O-T-A-T-O-E-S!!! Anytime & anywhere...boil/mash/fry/bake them!
My Philosophy
A beauty without virtues is like a flower without fragrance. A sense of humour is the shock-absorber of life. Today is a gift, that's why it is The Present. Talent is God-given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful.
What Gives Me Hope
When God closes a door, He usually leaves a window open. If you look at what you don't have, you have nothing; if you look at what you have, you have everything.
