My Mum

baby-> girl-> teenager-> woman- > mum-> ?

My mum is a simple woman.


She wakes up 5.30 am every morning to clean up the house.
30 mins later, she will go jogging with my dad.
30 mins again, she wakes my brother up and bring him to school.

Her leisure?
her radio - Love 97.2FM.
Her fave DJ is Billy.

Back to the clock, she needs to prepare lunch and dinner for the family.
3 times a day, she'd call my dad on the phone to encourage him, to motivate him.
She have been an awesome encourager for my dad.
Being an encourager, you got to be positive and believe tomorrow will be a new beautiful day.
There are times, an encourager gets a little weary.. mentally..

So she teared.

She prayed.

She believed.

She persists.

and persists.


My mum is a simple woman.

a simple yet a strong woman.

Positivism- A Choice?

Being positive i believe is a choice all of us have in our hands. One we have decided to be positive, our future life will be directed in that direction.

There are friends i know that are super negative, some who are super positve. The difference in their life can be seen significantly.

We all need to have positive people around us. I have many positive and cheery friends around me. There is this someone that is very positive in his view of life as well. He will always find opportunities to be happy, life greatest aim is to be happy. There are times whereby he will be upset, but after a short while he will pick himself up. Something i find courageous about him is that he CHOOSE to pick himsef up from dscouragement and not to be indulged in it. That by itself is a form of boldness and courage. While hanging out with him, i learnt a lot. Being happy, is by itself a choice.

You can give someone positive encouragement and positive feelings about themselves by using positive statements when talking to them. Try them on someone!

Words can kill but words can also heal. One kind word will make someone day but one bitter word will ruin the self-esteem of one. Pastor Kong once said when you say one bitter word to someone, it will takes you to say 60 kind words to makeup for that 1 bitter word!

The bible says that words is like the rudder of a ship. Though small by it can control the entire ship.

No matter what situation we are in, let's find reason to be positive in every situation possible.

Hi all.. have not been posting for a long time.. Some things i find interesting.. Why the sky is blue?? Why the clouds are white.. Someone explained to me patiently the answer to my question.. Sometimes when one get busy with life, they tends not to take a good look at the inheritance of the nature that they have around them..

The nagging of parents sometimes will also seems like a tiresome thing that can ever happen to them.. Then i realized, this is what life is all about..

So people, when u are one busy soul here.. learning to stop and look around is one of the greatest gift you can have for yourself...
