A blog for my random ramblings inspired by day to day living on a beautiful tropical rainforest island called North Borneo State of Sabah, Malaysia. From family, parenting, adventures, travels to recipes and upcylced crafts, an assortment of ideas, just some highlights of what we learn from our living.

The Power of A Whisper
The Songs from radio station
The Noise from traffic
The Discussions during meeting
The Instructions from the boss
At times, it can be over-whelming
So much to do, so little time
So much trouble,so little peace
In a moment, we could be overwhelmed
In a quiet moment, we could be restored
Empowered to resolve trouble and bring peace
Entitled to love, joy and peace and be free
Enlightened with lightness of hearts
Embraced by love of God
The moment of truth that comes from above
The power of a whisper :
"Be still and know that I am God."
In that sentence, it silent out all noises and sounds
It confronts and settles all fears and doubts
From the power of a whisper
We could arise and stand tall
We could stand against all odds
We live out our destiny

Christmas A bit more each time
Christmas comes once a year
Just like a long time friend
Whose presence is always welcomed
To stay a bit longer each time
Christmas is a season to spend
Food, Gifts and special memories
Anything money could buy
Will make Christmas a bit more special each time
Christmas is about growing
As kids find out they outgrowing the Christmas Tree
From receiving end to giving
This is what make Christmas better each time
Christmas is about aging gracefully
From tonnes of Christmas decor
We trim them down to the core basic
For Christmas in the heart is more meaningful each time
Christmas is about sharing
Baking and food to bless others
Presents and gifts to cheer them up
This is what make Christmas merrier each time
Christmas is about forgiving
Letting go of the hurts and pains
Resolving the conflicts of the heart
This is what make Christmas lovelier each time

A Thousand Years by Christina Perri
This has got to be voted as the Number 1 Romantic Song for 2012-2013 season.
Everyone listened to it.
Every radio stations played it.
Every Wedding played it during the banquet or as slideshow.
It reminds me of Chinese romance, as lovers will often say to one another :
I love you for a thousand years.
This was how it came about. From her own words : "A Thousand Years" is a brand new song that me and my best friend David Hodges wrote for Bella and Edward. We wrote it after we screened the movie and I couldn't be more proud of this song.
Sound track No 1

~Lyrics for Part 2 ~
The day we met
Frozen I held my breath
Right from the start
I knew it I found a home for my
Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow
One step closer
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this
One step closer
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
One step closer
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
The day we met
Frozen I held my breath
Right from the start
I knew it I found a home for my
Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow
One step closer
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this
One step closer
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
One step closer
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
