Dear dairy, well, I’m just kidding. It’s been some time since I wrote something on my blog.

Eat, Pray, Love and Under the Tuscan Sun are the movies that I recent watched.

The first one is about a young American female writer, trying to find the true meaning of her life. She divorced her husband. Then she decided to take a one year tour to Italy, India, and Indonesia. In the end she found the balance of her life. Body, soul, and spirit, we need the balance between them. The spirit relationship with God should be the most important thing. You need a good and healthy relationships with God first. Then you’ll know what should be the balance between them.

The second one is also about an American female writer. And she encountered her mid-life crisis, and found her loving husband is cheating on her. They end up with a terrible divorce. With friends’ encourages, they go on a gay tour to Italy for relax. At Italy Tuscany, she serendipitous became the owner of a lovely yet dilapidated villa. She became good friend with her realtor agent. With his help, advises, and company for some time. With her agent friend‘s reminding, she realize that her wishes come true, a wedding took place (her godson’s wedding) and living with her family at that big villa. A lot of time we don’t realize that we already possessed the best of our life that God prepared for us,

The best lover, partner, friend(s), son(s), daughter(s), mother, father, co-worker(s), job, boss… etc. It’s important to have a real good friend(s). And then appreciate and cherish what have now. Of course, we still need to make our best effort on everything.

Have you ever seen the roller coaster shots. The fun part is that even the pictures are shooting at the exact same spot. The reactions from people are very different. Some are scared, some are quite enjoying it, some may like they’re going to throw up, some are looks like they’re still waiting for the more exciting part to come and some are even making funny faces.

Same thing happen in our daily life, same situations, people’s reactions are never the same. Yes! It’s your choice to make, whether you want to enjoy your own life or not. Although most of the time, we don’t get to know or pick ahead.

What is happiness? Have a lot of money? Own high authority?

Sometimes happiness is simple. Always try your best and then satisfy and treasure what you have.

The kids keep company with me when I needed. We went to a u-pick farm together. Buy something that we all like. Enjoy the natural together.

Have some delicious meals. And then I realize that’s what I always wonder, what should I give myself something special for the mother’s or birthday or Christmas present.

讚美操

Counting blessings, have you ever count the blessings that you/ve received?

Well, do it now. Everyday, even every second the blessing(s) occur.

Last year, I start the praise dance 讚美操 at the park. At that time, to me, it just an exercise. Then I realize that that’s when I need the most. I have a lot of problems, relationships, health, too many pressures…etc. And most of all, I suddenly remember that forty something years ago, I always wanting to learn how to dance. This is that the praise dance not just have exercise moves, it also have a lot of dance moves. Isn’t that amazing? And through that, it helps me a whole lot with all my problems. I’m not saying that it solved all the problems that I have, you need to do your part, right? Also I join the choir at church last year too. Only because I love to sing, especially hymns. And I never can image that you can improve your singing ability, even you’re not born with talents. With the praise dance, we’re not just strengthening physically but mentally. You have to memories all the moves and we’re forced to memories all the friends’ name. I love that. Thanks the creator of praise dance and all the teachers, co-workers, all the friends and of course my loving families. Without you guys, I don’t think I can make it.

People change, why? Because the age? The thing you had met? The people you had met? Encounter with GOD?

Things that you never thought you’ll do it or make it.

Love to read, write, watch movie, being with friends, talk to the people who you don’t  even know, share thoughts, sing, dance, exercise, no more stage fright, give thanks, praise…etc.

Write down something about your thoughts, for example about a movie that you watched.

A River Runs Through It, the movie that I watched the other day.

This story happened around Montana, the main characters are the two sons of a Presbyterian minister. I like the way that the story is told, smooth and calm.

It describes about the relationships, with GOD, between husband and wife, the parent(s) and kid(s), between friends, lovers, co-workers, authority…etc.

And how a relationships affect our grow-up life, especially with the parent(s). Unfortunately we don’t get to pick our own parents or change them. But we do hold the key of changing ourselves to be good or unhurt or even to help someone else. Every life is like a river runs through it. You may have the same situation as some others in your life, but depend on how the way you look it or how you dealing with. The come out is not always the same.

The only thing that I don’t like is that there’s something sad happened at the end.

Use any way to let out the stress that you have. Never keep them inside of you.

Otherwise it’ll eventually explode, and then you’ll either hurt yourself or someone innocent.

Either by talk to people, your pets, or do something that you really like.

For example by drawing, write some articles, exercising, singing etc.

Anyway stand up and do it. You’re the one who can do the best to save yourself.

When troubles come, we’ll fight for it.

Often time, we trouble ourselves, still fight for it in Jesus' name. Amen

The best and quickest way to calm down is by praying.

Never do anything when you’re in emotional, especially anger.

In case of mistake happened, calm down, admit, repent, and learn from it.

The past week there’s something happen to me. Thanks for friends’ and families’ support.

Especially thanks for my kids, their understanding, supporting and praying for me.

And remember praying, not just pray for your own problem, pray for the others, especially for those whom involved in that particular incident.

Everyday is a special day.

May GOD be with you and bless you wherever you go!

 

Here is a wonderful song to share with you.

I cannot believe that I’m going to have something to share for the first time.

It’s a big and special day to me today.
