I missed it!

Today is 25th of August, my birthday was passed nineteen days. I was kinda regret ‘cos I didn’t manage to make any entry on my birthday.. I’d missed the number of 06.08.08..(August 6,) as I wanted it to be listed in my archive..hmmm…

..btw,,There’s nothing much to be said on my recent 28th birthday..there was no well-planned birthday celebration.. but I still can say that, it was such a pleasant day to be remembered..

Some people might find it pathetic when their birthday goes by without any celebrations.. even, some people sometimes, might wonder what’s their next year birthday’s celebration will be..? Luckily, I am not that kind of person.. I was trained and grew up in the home environment of not to expect anything on your birthday. My childhood birthday passed by without any memorable trace as i have never experienced of blowing my own birthday cake's candles until i reached my 19th birthday…itu pun birthday beramai-ramai..hehe:) though, I NEVER blame my parents for that ‘cos i've always believed that their loves counts more than everything in this world.. soo..instead of counting the number of candles on the birthday cake..i rather count my countless blessings and happiness throughout the years...:)

Thought for Today - PEACE -

It may seem almost useless to talk about peace when around us we see a continued state of ‘peacelessness’. Peacelessness makes it necessary for us to draw upon our own source of peace.

Consider the flowers.. They too live in this peaceless environment. They too have to endure the pollution and decay of the world of nature. Yet, wherever they are found, be it by the congested roadside, near the swamps, in the desert, or amid the thorns.. they are eternally beautiful and fragrant. It is not by chance that flowers are given for every occasion. Flowers call forth the images of peace and tranquility. It is their nature..

We are also like flowers. We are the flowers of the garden of God. In this worldwide garden, we too are threatened by polluted and degraded circumstances. But when we realize that the original nature of our soul is peace, then we can combine with God who is the Ocean of Peace, and so become the embodiment of peace, the living, thinking flowers..
