Driven by Revenge
By Dr James Dobson
Driven by revenge
Very few stories are as gripping as Herman Melville's novel Moby Dick. And like most literary classics, its theme is as timeless as the ages.
The story focuses on the whaling ship Pequod, under the leadership of Captain Ahab. The crew quickly learns that Capt Ahab is on a quest to track and kill Moby Dick, the great white whale that took his leg years ago. He confesses his burning desire for revenge and convinces the crew to help.
But the story reaches a climax in a mighty confrontation with Moby Dick. In the throes of a hurricane, they battle the great white, piercing his side with harpoons, attacking and then retreating as the night goes on.
Soon, Capt Ahab is alone in a small boat, facing the giant with nothing more than a harpoon. He refuses to run when he has a chance, and with all the hate and strength he can muster, he thrusts the harpoon into the whale, only to find its rope wrapped around his neck. He's dragged into the depths of the sea and drowned.
It's a haunting but insightful tale about what happens when a passion or an obsession that consumes like a cancer of the soul, and in the end it destroys, not the other person, but the one who is filled with hate.

A real shit!
What a shit....required to go for photo taking with someone who is a prominent figure in Singapore (reluctantly). Beside having to wait, was not briefed on what the reason for. This asshole just came and smile fakely and the cameraman ordered you and you and you sit around this asshole and started clicking. A real shit to see how a prominent figure acted and ordering people around at last minute order, and feeling that it is their rights to do so without taking into consideration of other people lifestyle or committments. What a real asshole!!

Unconditional Love
By Dr Bill Maier
What's the most important gift you can give your child?
Of course, the answer is unconditional love.
The one thing every child needs to know is their parents love them, no matter what.
Author Max Lucado wrote a children's book that relays this same message. It's called 'You Are Special', and it's a great little story about a village full of small wooden people called "Wemmicks".
The Wemmicks go about their day putting little stickers on each other.
The pretty and talented people get a gold star, while the clumsy and plain ones get a gray dot.
They learn to measure their worthy by the kinds of stickers they have.
As parents, we rund the risk of doing the same thing to our kids.
If we only praise them when they succeed, and cdriticise them when they fail, we're teaching them that their worth is dependent on their performance.
By loving them unconditionally, we're teaching them that they're accepted in spite of their failures or shortcomings.
And that's what kids need most.

Scarcasm not funny to kids
By: Dr Bill Maier
Is your family in the habit of making sarcastic jokes to each other?
If so, you might want to consider toning it down a bit.
A recent study showed that young children can suffer lasting emotional damage when they are the butt of teasing that they dont understand. They found that kids under 10 years old almost always interpret sarcastic remarks as being serious, even when they are intended as a joke. Kids under five dont get them at all. They're not old enough to grasp the concept of sarcasm, so they take every word seriously.
It's still not clar why some kids are more easily affected by sarcasm than others, but researchers suspect it may have to do with the child's home life.
Kids who hear this kind of humour at home are more likely to tease others. No one likes to be made fun of, so let's watch what we say to our kids.

LOST
Sometimes, you feel that you are capable of conquering the world with your wits and determination. But sometimes, you will be at lost in your own home. Isn’t that funny? I’m lost today, lost in my own home. My daughter called me in early evening….and at that very moment I sense something is not right, but she denied it. She messaged me about leaving her cosmetic pouch in the car and requested that I send it to her on my way home. Met her in her hostel and the senses of something is not right getting stronger and I just gave her a hug. Reached home, she messaged me to call her if I’m still awake. I knew the sense of not right is about to explode. I called her and yes, it exploded and I'm lost in my own home. What can I do? She is such a hard working and good girl and yet I’m not able to provide her the best for her and her future. Oh my God, please give me a source where I can provide her with all the necessity for her future. Amin!

Gema takbir disubuh hari
Kesedihan menyelubungi diri ku mengingati bagaimana perubahan itu belaku dengan sekelip mata apabila Dia menghendaki nya. Sekelip pemergian arwah bapa ku tersayang, sekelip kedatangan Ramadan dan sekelip menjelmanya Syawal.....Gema takbir disubuh hari mengingatkan aku kesemua, betapa indah nya dunia ini Allah ciptkan untok umat Nya yang dikasihi, betapa indah nya itu keluarga untok disayangi....tahun ini aku kehilangan seorang bapa yang tersayang.....semoga Allah cucuri Rahmat dan Rahim Nya ke atas arwah bapa ku.....Ya Allah, kau terang dan lapangkan alam barzakh nya, ampun kan dosa-dosa nya, kasihani lah bapa ku, sesungguh nya bapa ku seorang bapa yang bertanggung jawab terhadap ahli keluarga nya...Amin Ya Rabbal'alamin.

No Way To Hide
There is no way you can hide from your own hearing, your eyes, or your skins. In fact, you thought that GOD was unaware of much of what you do.

My Uncertainity

Yes, i might be seen smiling and dancing crazily in school....it's just a camouflage to my uncertainity. Feeling very down lately and God knows why. What is there that made me what i'm feeling right now? It's getting from bad to worse lately and i'm not sure whether i could take it anymore. People were saying that i'm crazy for making my life upside down busy by taking the killer course Diploma in Teaching - Leadership, with no intention of becoming a principal. I asked myself that too.....hehehe i just brushed off by saying that i wanna show off. I asked myself again, is that true? Is that the real reason? I'm bullshitting myself. AWARA, your uncertainity is the culprit for what you're doing right now. Am I running away from it by making myself dead busy in order to forget about my uncertainty? Oh please Allah, do give me your guidance and for my mother, my hubby, my brothers and my beloved daughter whom i lay all my hope on. God is trying to wake me up from my slumber life---a perfect picture of a happy family potrait----good looking suave hubby, pretty lovely well behaved child, forever young looking mother with flawless complexion and a tiny winy little cat smiling broadly infront of the camera saying "cheeesseeee" and not knowing that out there someone or somebody is giggling to my stupidity. What is happening to my life with all these uncertainity or should i say that insanity is overtaking my sound mind. That guy is not peeping through my front door key hole anymore, he is now inserting the key in order to invite me out.......Ready or not, i'm coming!!! Oh please God, do let me go peacefully and do let me bring along all the prayers of my only child for my next life companion. Amin!
