the funny thing about being sad is , it eats you up if you don't snap out of it . i do not like to see others sad .. it's just too much to bear ..
not many would open up to tell you why they are sad ...kids cry when they are sad so what do we adults do when we are sad ?
for starters, we have a bunch of friends whom we keep at the corner , and these bunch of friends are the ones who try to cheer you up ...
so why do we feel sad ...
is sadness an emotion ? when you are sad , it can , most of the time lead you to cry ...and that just makes it worse ..
no matter how many clowns you send in to make you happy , you still feel the sadness ..
but i guess the sadness does go away with time and time heals ..

christmas tree
once again, the hot topic of our household... when are we going to put up the tree?
the big question is .. when is the best time ? i could say any day now would be the best day to put up the tree but on the other hand .. the tree would usually go up on that 1st of December ....
with my sister's children coming any day now, should we just get them to put up the tree ? why not right .. at least this year we don't have to move around so much with the tree .. i mean let the boys do it .. how hard can it be .... right ?
that was the plan last week . i was happy because we are going to let them decorate it for us this year ..
the plan has changed just 2 seconds ago ... the queen of the house has changed her plans and now demands that we do it instead .. why ?
okay , by tonight i will make her change her mind and just tell her that putting up the tree is an activity done by young and old ... so maybe just this year we get the chance to put it up with the boys and later in the night .... we'd open up our cookies and have a munchies or two .. perhaps we'll just gobble up everything !!!!

violet /viola
violet came in the most perfect hue .... soft , gentle and violet reminded me of the time when everything was so simple .. violet made me see things in a different way .. a unique way ....
violet had a temper with a smile that is so sweet but be aware .. violet will attack ..
i was given a choice of colours to paint my classroom .. it was violet , sunflower and mandarin orange .. i choose violet .. it's one of my favourite colour .. not forgetting green .in fact ,i like many colours .. the last time , my class was in blue , and then it went to yellow ..but this time i wanted a colour that would look most royal and violet was the perfect hue ....
as i gathered the tools , today .. i felt a sense of gladness .. everything was going on fine .. i did not flip nor did i mess up my class ..i added a few wall stickers here and there and i was done .. my class looks brighter and i even felt brighter ....
my spirit is up and .. i plan to keep it that way ..

what is finally up ....is ...
what is finally up is finally down .. okay .. my spirits were up since this morning and it got to a higher peak when i went window shopping today .. not only was the price was right ... or i could fit into that blouse , my pocket was totally kosong , so sad ..... but then again my pening went away after i saw the blouse , the skirt and the shoes and the bag aka as the arm candy ........
i was in heaven ... no , that's a tad too much .. seriously i don't shop that much but today was different .. because today i was with some friends and after lunch , we decided to kill some time by going window shopping ..... and think of all the calories that went down the drain after a hefty lunch ... well done !!!
we made a pact .. we decided to wait for pay day and attack those boutiques ..... i hope in time for Xmas ....

marriage..and love
i do not what is like being married to someone .. all i know and understand is , between the ages of ..let's say 25 right up to 30 . it's a must for every boy or girl to get married ... it's part of life ..
but , it does not work that Way .. just look at me ... when my sister got married at the age of 24 . confidently i told myself that when i reach the happening age of 24 , it will be my turn to find a soul mate and tie the knot .. sadly it not work for me that way .. after what .. say 14 years , i am still waiting for that moment to come and i am still single .. so who do i blame ?
do i blame everyone around me ? or just me ? .. like the girl from China .. said recently . i must marry myself and love myself before i can fall in love to marry ... .. how nice .. a good statement though .. so how many of us can stand up and say .. .. i must love myself ....
the reason i cannot love a person is because not only love is universal, love has to begin with me .. like Jesus love for us is universal .... a whole lot of love and his love for us is like a huge circle and no one can take that love away from us ...
so like today , i was reading an article about marriages and soul mate .. half of the article sounded good but three quarters into it ..... i left the page .. and you see this is my attitude always thinking that i know more .... i have a lot to learn about marriages and being a soul mate to that one person only .....
what am i going to t about it ....? i should say that i would begin to love myself first before i enter into the next phase ....
let it begin with me by saying this .. i am going to love myself first like it or not .....

selfishness .. through my eyes
the only people who are selfish are the fish monger who sells fish in the market !!!
that is not the point .. selfishness is a talent and you a whole amount of it .... including me and the fish monger in the market!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it is normal to be selfish .. is it an emotion or a habit formed even before we pop out from our mother's womb .... i am not making any sense of it .. why do we become selfish ?
maybe you got hurt along the way or your sister or brother was selfish towards you and it went on for awhile and then it was payback time.. how about if we payed it back with kindness ... just forget about being selfish ......
i don't understand .... people are taught differently .. unlike you or me .. it matters a lot to me because i was not brought up that way .. selfish in sharing a toy when i was a little girl .... yes but it goes away as you get older .. perhaps when you understand better , maturity enters in ....
so then ,what is the true art of selfishness ? i cannot answer it for you but what i can do is .. to reflect upon my life quietly and then only will i find or seek the answer ....
through selfishness comes great strides in self worth and as we move along and change it in us , we can become one .... with Jesus anything is possible ..

virtual money and it's faithfullness
well i am a sucker for it .. i am hooked but not in bad way .. you see , some friends and i have been playing online games in face book , and it got to the point of no return .. i should say that or not ..
at first it was just to pass my time ... alright, never mind just play the game for the sake of playing it .. then phase two ; it got to another level where we were buying , selling and buying and buying and selling all at the same time !!
this gets better .. we'd get to work and group up just so we could discuss our latest findings .. treasures , gifts , presents you name it ..then one sad day , that was the day i was so sad . i could not log into my farm , siap siap .. they helped out ....harvesting .. planting the works and if anyone of us were just too busy with work and assignments , we'd help out .. it was fun but i still could not log into my farm .... sad again ..
after about a week , i tried to get into my farm and i did it , i was like a kid who had a bag of treats .. what was then it's all in the game , has now become ,we're back in the game .. i felt that my life was complete.. no one understood us as to why we were so into this game not even our families .. all we knew was , go to work .. give the kids homework , teach ...do more work and then rush home to our farms .....
soon, we promoted ourselves to another game .. millionaire city ...i was a bit apprehensive towards this game but after some coaxing from my dua sekawan , we are now worth millions and the next best part is .. the money are all virtual but we still feel so sayang to waste our money to buy more property !!!!!
at a corner , I'd go , 'jeez , it's only a game how come'!see, you and me both know that but .... in all fairness to the game and to the gamers out there it's like waste not want not....
we cannot simply explain to you why , how , or how come ... oh , i say it like it is .... we are so into the game but we're not hooked on it .. we can stop anytime ....
and so the story goes , we are having a whale of a time till i go for a short break .. well , never fear , it will be taken care of I'd say ..... cheerio till then ..
