It sets to rise again!<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><em><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Life is beautiful when I come to encounter the various colours of life... the different forms of clouds that block the sunshine, people of different personalities and characters that I have dealt with, and most importantly, how I see things... How I see things will make all the difference. Throughout my life, I have come across many obstacles, problems and emotional breakdowns that not many people of my age would come across... The emotional breakdowns I had, brought me close to the thin line into the world of insanity, I almost lost my life.... The feeling that I would never ever want to get into anymore... Yet, I managed to overcome them. And here I am, sharing these with you... Undeniably, these challenges made me stronger than I used to be. The incredible power that I have to overcome them makes me realise that I am strong, within...</span></em></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><em><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">"Good timber does not grow with ease; the stronger the wind, the stronger the tree." -J.

I never blame God for the tough times I need to go through... What goes around comes around. Maybe it's my retribution for the bad things I did in the past. I accept them with an open heart. This mind set of mine makes me feel very grateful, for I am gifted to be able to see things differently and take things positively, although sometimes I do get depressed. </span></em></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><em><span style="font-family: Georgia;">Laughter, is my best medicine... My sun sets to rise again with laughter and to bloom the earth with flowers... I laugh a lot, which people might find it annoying... I don't care... I am who I am, I do not have to be what other people want me to as long as I don't hurt people. I, am born to laugh. As Charlie Chaplin said, "A day without laughter is a day wasted." Cherish every moment with laughter as I might not be able to laugh again tomorrow... So why not laugh... I am blessed! </span></em></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

It's only a piece of cloud in the clear blue sky... </span></em><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Will I see sunshine in the future, like where I am standing now? Will I still be standing here, looking up in searching for a hope in life? Will I still be able to see the world in front of me? All answers to my questions are left blank.... It's left for me to fill in the blank as most of the answers are in my hand... I am to determine what my life is ahead... "Personality can open doors, but only character can keep it open."</span></em><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">God does help, not by giving the answers, but by encouraging me to use my intelligence to find them, and by guiding me in the right direction. Others, are up to me...</span></em><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Georgia;">Standing in the midst of nature opens up my mind, welcoming me to a Serene Life! This moment in time makes me realise that nature's peace will flow into me as sunshine flows into trees around me.... It is my life....</span></em>Serenehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04203090301422605081noreply@blogger.com0
