The beauty of life is, while we cannot undo what is done,
we can see it, understand it, learn from it and change.
So that every new moment is spent not in regret, guilt, fear or anger,
but in wisdom, understanding and love. - Jennifer Edwards
Today I feel happiness. No, scratch that. I feel gratitude. I feel the urge of joy like the waves trying to shallow me. Yet, I feel peace; warm; and content. It’s the most precious moment I have this year.
Lilo has been on her best behavior lately. Today, as always, she kissed me before I go to work. My father was still sleeping in his room; and mom walked me out to the car. While today is gloomy outside, I feel the sun shines down on me. I feel much love. Much content.
Contentment is something that I am working toward all my life; ever since I realized it means more than Happiness. I just want to give everyone a big hug . What is a big hug anyway? but heck, I don’t care. If I see you, I will to hug you. I know it sounds silly but I feel I have much love to give and to share. Corny, I know. Maybe, I have gone over my head with this tremedous joy (which is from nowhere that I know within me) but I feel alive. I’m happy that I am alive, typing this and listening to Canon in D.
At the age of 26, I have what I want. I still have my family with me. I have my Lilo, my heart, my joy. I have the joy of going to work and have the ability to have my work done. I have scratched the jealousy and hatred from my heart for quite sometime now. It has all healed. I have forgiven everyone who hurted me from the hurt part of my heart. That was relieved and warm. Right now, I’m grateful that I have my ten toes and ten fingers, a warm and pure heart, and a content smile on my face.
May this feeling in my heart never fade and everyone could feel the same way that I do.
–Gratitude–
I’m holding on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground
I’m hearin what you say but I just can’t make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
You tell me that you’re sorry
Didn’t think I’d turn around, and say…
It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I’d take another chance, take a fall
Take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
But it’s nothin new - yeah yeah
I loved you with a fire red-
Now it’s turning blue, and you say…
“Sorry” like the angel heaven let me think was you
But I’m afraid…
It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
It’s too late to apologize, yeah
I said it’s too late to apologize, yeah-
I’m holdin on your rope, got me ten feet off the ground…
“If u need more love from someone… do love that someone more first…”
Tree
====
The reason I’m called tree is because I’m good at painting trees. Overtime I start to use a tree on the right hand corner as a trademark for all my watercolors painting. I have dated 5 gals when I was in Pre-U. There’s one gal who I love a lot but never dare go after her. She doesn’t have a pretty face, doesn’t have a good figure, doesn’t have outstanding charm. She is just a very ordinary gal.
I like her. I really like her. Like her innocent, like her frankness. Like her cuteness, like her intelligence and her fragility. Reason for not going after her is because I felt somebody so ordinary like her is not a good match for me. I’m also afraid that after we are together all the good feelings will vanish. I’m also afraid other’s gossips will hurt her. I felt that if she’s my gal, she will be mine ultimately & I don’t have to give up everything just for her. The last reason, made her accompany me for 3 years. She watched me chase after gals, and I have made her heart cry for 3 years.
She wants to be a good actress and I’m a very demanding director. When I kissed my 2nd girlfriend, she bumped into us. She was embarrassed but smiled & said “Go on!” before running off. The next day, her eyes were swollen like a walnut. I purposely didn’t want to think about what causes her to cry but laughed at her the whole day. When everybody went back home, she was alone crying in the classroom. She didn’t know that I returned from soccer training to get something. I have watched her cry for an hour or so.
My 4th girlfriend didn’t like her. There was once when both of them quarreled. I know that based on her character she’s not the type that will start off the quarrel. But I still sided with my girlfriend. I shouted at her and her eyes were filled shocked. I didn’t care about her feelings and walked off with my girlfriend.
The next day, she still laughed & jokeed with me like nothing has ever happened. I know that she’s very hurt but she didn’t know that my heart ache is as bad as hers.
When I broke up with my 5th girlfriend, I asked her out. After going out for a day, I told her that I have something to tell her. She told me that coincidentally, she has something to tell me too. I told her about my break up and she told me about her getting together. I know who the guy is. He has been going after her for quite a while. A very cute guy full of energy, lively and interesting. His pursuit for her has been the talk of the school.
I can’t show her my heart ache but could only smile & congratulate her. When I reached home, the heart ache was so strong that I couldn’t stand it. It was like a heavy weighted stone on my chest. I couldn’t breath. Wanted to shout but can’t. Tears rolled down & I broke down & cry. How many times have I seen her cry for the man that doesn’t acknowledge her presence too?
During graduation, I read a sms in my hp. It was send 10 days ago when I broke down and cry. I haven’t read it since then. It says: “Leaf departure is because of Wind pursuit. Or because Tree didn’t ask her to stay?”
Leaf
====
During Pre-U days, I liked to collect leaves. Why? Because I felt that for a leaf to leave the tree she has been relying on for so long it takes a lot of courage. During the 3 years of Pre-U I was on very close terms with a guy. Not BGR kind but as buddy kind. But when he had his 1st girlfriend, I learnt a feeling I never should have learnt - Jealousy. The sourness in the heart can’t be described by using a lemon. It’s like 100 rotten sour lemons. Sourness to the extreme limit. They were only together for 2 mths. When they broke up, I hid my strong sense of happiness. But after a mth, he got together with another gal.
I like him & I know he likes me. But why won’t he pursue me? Since he loves me why he doesn’t want to make the first move? Whenever he had a new girlfriend, my heart would hurt. Time after time, my heart was hurt. I begin to suspect that this is a one sided love. If he doesn’t like me, why does he treat me so well? It’s beyond what you will normally do for a friend. Liking a person is very heart wrenching. I can know his likes, his habits. But his feelings towards me I can never figure out. You can’t expect me a gal to ask him right?
Despite that, I still want to be by his side. Care for him, accompany him, love him. Hoping that one fine day, he will come & love me. It’s like waiting for his phone call every night, wanting him to send me sms. I know that no matter how busy he is, he will make time for me. Because of this, I waited for him. The 3 years were the hardest to go through & I really want to give up. Sometimes, I wonder should I continue waiting. The pain and hurt, the dilemma accompanies me for 3 years.
Till the end of my 3rd year, a 2nd year junior begins to went after me. Everyday he pursuited me relentlessly. From outright rejection to a point in time when I felt that I’m willing to let him have a small footing in my heart. He’s like a warm & gentle wind, trying to blow a leaf away from the tree. In the end, I realized that I didn’t want to give this wind a small footing in my heart. I know this wind will bring this badly battered leave far away & better land. Finally I left tree, but the tree only smiled & didn’t ask me to stay.
Leaf departure is because of Wind pursuit. Or because Tree didn’t ask her to stay?
Wind
====
Because I like a gal called leaf. Because she’s so dependent on tree so I have to be a gust wind. A wind that will blow her away. When I first met her, it was 1 mth after I transfer to the new school. I saw a petite person looking at my seniors & me playing soccer. During ECA time, she will always be sitting there. Be there alone or with her friends looking at him. When he talked with gals, there was a jealousy in her eyes. When he looked at her, there was a smile in her eyes. Looking at her became my habit. Just like she likes to look at him.
One day, she didn’t appear. I felt something amissed. I can’t explain the feeling except it’s a kind of uneasiness. The senior was also not there as well. I went to their classroom, hid outside and saw my senior scolding her. Tears were in her eyes while he left. The next day, I saw her at her usual place, looking at him. I walked over and smiled to her. Took out a note & gave to her. She was surprised. She looked at me, smiled & accepted the note. The next day, she appeared & passed me a note and left.
Leaf’s heart is too heavy and wind couldn’t blow her away.
It’s not that leaf heart is too heavy. It because leaf never wants to leave tree.
I replied her note with this statement and slowly she started to talk to me & accepted my presents & phone calls. I know that the person she loves is not me. But I have this perseverance that one day I will make her like me. Within 4 mths, I have declared my love for her no less than 20 times. Every time, she will divert away from the topic. But I never give up. If I decide I want her to be mine, I will definitely use all means to win her over. I can’t remember how many times I have declared my love to her. Although I know she will try to divert but I still bear a small ray of hope. Hoping that she will agree to be my girlfriend. I didn’t hear any reply from her over the phone. I asked: “What are you doing? How come you didn’t want to reply?” She said, “I’m nodding my head”. “Ah?” I couldn’t believe my ears. “I’m nodding my head”. She replied loudly. I hang up the phone, quickly changed and took a taxi and rushed to her place & pressed her door bell. During the moment when she opened the door. I hugged her tightly.
Leaf departure is because of Wind pursuit. Or because Tree didn’t ask her to stay?
Moral
_____________________
In love, we win very rarely, but when love is true, even if you lose, you still win just for having the tingle of loving someone more than you love yourself. There comes a time when we stop loving someone, not because that person has stopped loving us but because we have found out that, they’d be happier if we let go….
Why do we close our eyes when we sleep? When we cry? When we imagine? When we kiss? This is because THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THINGS IN THE WORLD ARE UNSEEN.
There are things that we never want to let go of, people we never want to leave behind, but keep in mind that letting go isn’t the end of the world.
It’s the beginning of a new life. Happiness lies for those who cry those who hurt, those who have searched and those who have tried. For only they can appreciate the importance of the people who have touched our
lives.
A great love? It’s when you shed tears and still you care for them, it’s when they ignore you and still you long for them. It’s when they begin to love another and yet you smile and say, “I’m happy for you.” If love fails, set yourself free, let your heart spread its wings and fly again. Remember you may find love and lose it, but when love dies, you never have to die with it.
The strongest people are not those who always win but those who stand back up when they fall. Somehow, along the course of life, you learn about yourself and realize that there should never be regrets, only a lifelong appreciation of the choices you’ve made. Loving is not how you forget but how you forgive, not how you listen but how you understand, not what you see but how you feel, and not how you let go but how you hold on.
It’s more dangerous to weep inwardly rather than outwardly. Outward tears can be wiped away while secret tears scar forever…
It’s best to wait for the one you want than settle for one that’s available. It’s best to wait for the right one because life is too short to waste on just someone.

Em yêu anh - phẩy
” Hãy tin vào sự kì diệu của số phận”
Cần phải tin vào quyền lực của những chữ cái a, b, c, d, e… Vâng, chỉ cần một chữ cái cũng có thể thay đổi cả một số phận. Bằng chứng ư? Chính là câu chuyện này…
Khi ông bà Point (trong tiếng Pháp có nghĩa là dấu chấm) có một cậu con trai và họ quyết định đặt cho cậu một cái tên vĩ đại. Sau khi lưỡng lự giữa Rambo, Charlemagne, Ramses và Catona, cuối cùng họ lại chọn Virgile bởi đó là tên một trong những nhà thơ cổ đại lớn nhất.
Chỉ có điều là ông Point đã quá xúc động khi ghi tên con vào sổ đăng kí, ông đánh vần nhầm ra “V-I-R-G-U-L-E” và thế là Virgile trở thành Virgule (nghĩa là dấu phẩy).
Khi biết điều này, dù rằng rất giận nhưng vợ ông vẫn nhìn cậu con trai rồi cười:
- Nhìn con thật xinh xắn lại nhỏ bé. Virgule! Thế cũng tốt.
Và cái tên được giữ lại.
Cũng như cái tên của mình, Virgule trông khẳng khiu và buồn cười. Ở trường, mỗi khi điểm danh, thầy giáo gọi:
- Point Virgule!
Và Virgule đứng bật dậy, như một dấu chấm than và đáp:
- Dạ, có mặt!
Sau đó, Virgule lớn lên và đem lòng yêu cô bạn hàng xóm của anh, Séraphine. Khi người ta yêu, sẽ có hai loại người: những người dám thổ lộ và những người không dám. Virgule là loại thứ hai. Và bất hạnh hơn nữa khi mỗi lần Séraphine xuất hiện là Virgule trở nên xanh lét, mồ hôi đầm đìa, bước trượt cầu thang. Anh co rúm người lại đến nỗi trông anh như một dấu chấm, một dầu chấm nhỏ xíu… khi đó có thể gọi anh là Point Point. Và Séraphine chẳng bao giờ nhìn thấy anh.
Ấy vậy mà… chính chữ ”u” đã làm mọi thứ trở nên thay đổi. Các bạn có biết như thế nào không?
Séraphine đem lòng yêu một chàng trai không yêu cô. Cô luôn cười nói, cố gắng bắt chuyện với anh ta, gọi điện cho anh ta, viết thư cho anh ta…. nhưng chẳng được gì cả. Thật đáng thương cho Séraphine.
Một này nọ, cô quyết định gửi bức điện thứ mười cho tình yêu của cô. Và chính hôm đó, Séraphine gặp Virgule ở bưu điện vì Virgule chính là nhân viên ở đó.
Khi Virgule thấy Séraphine đến gần, anh cảm thấy mình sắp ngất đi. Cô thì không nhìn anh:
- Tôi muốn gửi một bức điện- cô nói với một giọng buồn bã.
- Xin cô vui lòng đọc nội dung… Virgule cầm bút và lắp bắp nói.
Cô đọc với giọng run:
- Je t’aime -virgule - Je t’adore- virgule- Je voudrais tant que tu me dises que tu m’aimes aussi- point.
(Em yêu anh- ”phẩy”- em thương anh- ”phẩy”- em rất muốn anh cũng nói với em rằng anh cũng yêu em- “chấm”).
Tuyệt vời làm sao khi nghe một câu như vậy và Virgule yêu cầu Séraphine nhắc lại. Cô đọc:
- Je t’aime- Je t’adore….
- Không, không!- Virgule nói- Hãy đọc lại đầy đủ cơ!
Séraphine làm theo:
- Je t’aime- virgule- Je t’adore- virgule…
- Lần nữa nhé cô… - Virgule rụt rè.
Mỗi lần nghe câu đó, đôi mắt anh lại sáng lên. Và đột nhiên, Séraphine nhận ra Virgule là một chàng trai thật đáng yêu với đôi mắt ấy và hàng mi dài… nụ cười của anh thì dịu dàng như mật ngọt. Như có một phép lạ, anh thì thầm với cô:
- Anh cũng yêu em, Séraphine.
Chỉ một chữ đôi khi thay đổi cả câu, và một câu có thể thay đổi cả một số phận. Nếu Virgule tên là Virgile, một nhà thơ cổ đại lớn nhất, thì có lẽ bây giờ anh vẫn cô đơn.
Bây giờ Virgule và Séraphine đang rất hạnh phúc bên nhau và họ đã có ba dấu chấm nhỏ…

How water structure reflects our consciousness
by WellnessGoods.com
Water has a very important message for us. Water is telling us to take a much deeper look at our selves. When we do look at our selves through the mirror of water, the message becomes amazingly, crystal, clear. We know that human life is directly connected to the quality of our water, both within and all around us.
The photographs and information in this article reflect the work of Masaru Emoto, a creative and visionary Japanese researcher Mr. Emoto has published an important book, “The Message from Water” from the findings of his worldwide research If you have any doubt that your thoughts affect everything in, and around you, the information and photographs that are presented here, taken from the book of his published results, will change your mind and alter your beliefs, profoundly.
How the molecular structure of water is affected…
From Mr. Emoto’s work we are provided with factual evidence, that human vibrational energy, thoughts, words, ideas and music, affect the molecular structure of water, the very same water that comprises over seventy percent of a mature human body and covers the same amount of our planet. Water is the very source of all life on this planet, the quality and integrity are vitally important to all forms of life. The body is very much like a sponge and is composed of trillions of chambers called cells that hold liquid. The quality of our life is directly connected to the quality of our water.
Water is a very malleable substance. Its physical shape easily adapts to whatever environment is present. But its physical appearance is not the only thing that changes, the molecular shape also changes. The energy or vibrations of the environment will change the molecular shape of water. In this sense water not only has the ability to visually reflect the environment but it also molecularly reflects the environment.
Mr. Emoto has been visually documenting these molecular changes in water by means of his photographic techniques. He freezes droplets of water and then examines them under a dark field microscope that has photographic capabilities. His work clearly demonstrates the diversity of the molecular structure of water and the effect of the environment upon the structure of the water.
Discover how each source has an effect on the visual photographed structure…
Snow has been falling on the earth for more than a few million years. Each snowflake, as we have been told, has a very unique shape and structure. By freezing water and taking a photograph of the structure, as Mr. Emoto has done, you get incredible information about the water.Mr. Emoto has discovered many fascinating differences in the crystalline structures of water from many different sources and different conditions around the planet. Water from pristine mountain streams and springs show the beautifully formed geometric designs in their crystalline patterns. Polluted and toxic water from industrial and populated areas and stagnated water from water pipes and storage dams show definitively distorted and randomly formed crystalline structures.

With the recent popularity in music therapy, Mr. Emoto decided to see what effects music has on the structuring of water. He placed distilled water between two speakers for several hours and then photographed the crystals that formed after the water was frozen.

After seeing water react to different environmental conditions, pollution and music, Mr. Emoto and colleagues decided to see how thoughts and words affected the formation of untreated, distilled, water crystals, using words typed onto paper by a word processor and taped on glass bottles overnight. The same procedure was performed using the names of deceased persons. The waters were then frozen and photographed.

| Energized water has had its molecules returned to their original life-giving, super moisturizing state. This allows maximum moisture absorption into the cells of your body, pets and plants; a major key to healing, and the maintenance of health and vitality.Dr. Emoto has revealed to the world the power of water’s vibration. Take the next step and bring this transformation into your life and into your part of the world by naturally structuring your water.To learn more about transforming water, click here. |
