This is dedicated to my wonderful friends, readers and relatives who enrich my life with the treasure of their being. May your soul decisions always be made with your heart, and not with your head.
1. Don't go for looks, they can deceive. Don't go for wealth even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile.
2. There are moments in life when you really miss someone that you want to pick them up from your dreams and hug them. Hope you dream of that someone.
3. Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go, be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want in life.
4. May you have...Enough happiness to make you sweet
Enough trials to make you strong
Enough sorrow to keep you human
Enough hope to make you happy
And enough money to keep you comfortable.
5. When one door of happiness closes, another opens. But we often look so long at the closed door, that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.
6. The best kind of friend is the one you could sit on a porch, swing with, never saying a word and then walk away feeling like that was the best conversation you've had.
7. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
8. Always put yourself in other's shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably does hurt the person too.
9. A careless word may kindle a strife;
A cruel word may wreck a life
A timely word may level stress
A lovely word may heal and bless.
10. The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves and not to twist them with our own image, otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.
11. The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything, they just make the most of everything that comes along the way.
12. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we should know how to be grateful for that gift.
13. It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
14. Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched and those who have tried. For only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.
15. Love is when you take away the feeling, the passion, the romance and find out you still care for that person.
16. A sad thing about life is that when you meet someone who means a lot to you only to find out in the end that it was never bound to be and you just have to let go.
17. Love starts with a smile, develops with a kiss and ends with a tear.
18. Love comes to those who still hope even though they've been disappointed, to those who still believe even though they've been betrayed, need to love those who still love, even though they've been hurt before.
19. It hurts to love someone, and not to be loved in return but what is most painful is to love someone and never finds the courage to let the person know how you feel.
20. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.
21. Never say goodbye when you still want to try;
Never give up when you still feel you can take it;
Never say you don't love that person anymore when you can't let go.
22. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back. Don't expect love in return, just wait for it to grow in their hearts but if it doesn't, be content it grew in yours.
23. There are things you love to hear but you would never hear it from the person whom you would like to hear it from, but don't be deaf to hear it from the person who says it with his heart.
24. When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life to the fullest so that when you die, you're smiling and everyone around you is crying.

Cat-from-Sydney Aunty Paula,
I'd like to edit this:
24. When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life to the fullest so that when you die, you're smiling and everyone around you is crying.
Into this:
24. When you were born, you were meowing and everyone around you were purring. Live your life to the fullest so that if ever you die (coz cats have 9 lives), you're purring and everyone around you is wailing.
har har har *evil thoughts*
ps. Thanks for coming into our lives.

ahoo If we choose to love those who love us, we are not operating in any divine gifting for we are just one of the many.
If we can love those who cannot love us, more so if we can love those who hated us, we are indeed operating out of divine love. For He loves us in order that we can love others that this world knows the meaning of His sacrificial love. Foe no man is greater than the one who laid down His own life so that others can live in eternity. This country needs love for healing to take place.
May we all find comfort and love in our hour of darkness and may the new day brings brightness into your life wherever you are.

Apa Nama Never say you don't love that person anymore when you can't let go.
Say it only when you have found someone new, hehe...

Catherine While sharing your life warmly with those around you, you must also protect others, and win their sincere trust and respect.

Anonymous Ibrahim Ali sues The Sun for defamation.
Good luck to the King of Frogs!

Anonymous No one has only faults or only merits. We all have a mixture of both. Hence, we should strive to develop and polish our positive attributes. By so doing, our shortcomings will fade until they are no longer apparent.

Very Sad Snaky rakyats are handsomely rewarded in this Bolehland ::

Anonymous Perkasa chief Datuk Ibrahim Ali today filed a RM10 million defamation suit against the Sun.
Suppose he wins and gets the RM10 million, haha!
Every supporter of his will then cheer him on.
Hidup Perkasa, Hidup Ibrahim.
Ibrahim, you betul-betul gagah perkasa!
But then come GE 13th, you akan binasa!

Nerdcore Fishfoot What a welcome break from doing my history-centric assignment. :)
I must remind myself the following especially:
19. It hurts to love someone, and not to be loved in return but what is most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel.
22. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back. Don't expect love in return, just wait for it to grow in their hearts but if it doesn't, be content it grew in yours.
Hugs,
Fishfoot

Unknown Dear Very Sad
Sighs...yes, all those rewards that we paid for via taxes :-(
Most saddening and heartbreaking. That money should rightfully go back to the rakyat via public, merit and social goods and service.
Take care and thanks for highlighting this...
Have a lovely rest this evening.
