A Number Game

I met with one of my high school friend, El.
He is now doing well with Tiens, the new Amway. (Well every MLM member will tell you that they are doing well, but I think my friend is really doing well).
He has always been an easy going and interesting person. So I am not surprised.

If you have interest in MLM and looking for a good mentor, he may be one. Let me know ;)

We discussed a lot about our line in general.

And he mentioned some good points like..
this is just a number game.
You gain some, you lose some.
I used to pin my hope on deals that involve my close friends, only to lose them in the end. And I close deal with the ones that I didn't expect.

After a while, I get used to SMS that goes like this: 'Sorry but we have found a place'.

So after more than 18 months, I am learning to count my blessing.
I am thankful for so many friends who have been so supportive.

I learn to appreciate the experience, the journey itself, rather than just the outcome.

So if you have an egg.. and you would like to drop it 3 feet without breaking it, what would you do?

Simply extend the journey to 4 feet.


When all else fail, when you will have to break in the end anyway,
why not just make the most out of the journey?

When you are in love with someone knowing she will never stay,
the next best thing is to make the most out of the journey.

Too Wild at Heart?

Here.. is an essay written against John Eldgredge's controversial book, Wild At Heart. The essay is quite heavy on theology, but it certainly worths reading to balance ourselves if we were to read Eldredge's book. I believe Wild at Heart is one of the best books I have ever read but all the same, I always felt that it is also one of the most dangerous ones. John Eldredge is one of those blessed with talent to come up with words so powerful you will nod your head in agreement without digesting them, most of the times. And that's why I love the book so much. But I suppose Eldredge is only human. He, like many other servants of God, has the tendency to swing towards the extreme of his own belief that sometimes, they (or we) fall into this trap of 'creating God in our own image'. I believe that the essay in itself has flaws and my own opinion, definitely, also has flaws. Geez I am not even a Theologist. But ultimately, none of us has that complete wisdom to understand G

Ichi Rittoru no Namida

As Aya's condition gradually worsen, she could no longer walk or stand anymore. She would sometimes choke when she eat and she struggled to speak. There was only one thing that she could do, albeit which much difficulty. She could still write. One day her mum visited her at the hospital and seeing her struggling hard to write her diary, her mum asked her to rest. But she said.. "Okaasan.. you said that I can still write right? That's the only thing that I could still do. I have to write what I have in mind now because that is the only prove that I am living today." Even when she could hardly hold her crayon, she would still write her diary. I do not know whether the movie followed the true diary content but in the movie.. Despite the diary began with her questioning why she had to be the one to suffer from this cruel disease, it sweetly ended with a word: "Arigatou". Thanking her parents and siblings for being there right to the end, thanking her friends for
