Did I Marry The Right Person? Not that I am thinking if I married the right person (because I know I did!), but Ah Pie sent this to me and I felt that it is a very good article to share. Those who are still single may learn something from here... Those who are already married may take it as a guideline to improve your marriage and relationship... --------------------------------------- DID I MARRY THE RIGHT PERSON? During one of our seminars, a woman asked a common question. She said, "How do I know if I married the right person?" I noticed that there was a large man sitting next to her so I said, "It depends. Is that your husband?" In all seriousness, she answered "How do you know?" Let me answer this question because the chances are good that it's weighing on your mind. Here's the answer. EVERY relationship has a cycle. In the beginning, you fell in love with your spouse / partner. You anticipated their call, wanted their touch, and liked their idiosyncrasies (unconventional behavior / habit). Falling in love with your spouse wasn't hard. In fact, it was a completely natural and spontaneous experience. You didn't have to DO anything. That's why it's called "falling" in love... Because it's happening TO YOU. People in love sometimes say, "I was swept of my feet." Think about the imagery of that expression. It implies that you were just standing there; doing nothing, and then something came along and happened TO YOU. Falling in love is easy. It's a passive and spontaneous experience. But after a few years of marriage, the euphoria (excitement) of love fades. It's the natural cycle of EVERY relationship. Slowly but surely, phone calls become a bother (if they come at all), touch is not always welcome (when it happens), and your spouse's idiosyncrasies, instead of being cute, drive you nuts. The symptoms of this stage vary with every relationship, but if you think about your marriage, you will notice a dramatic difference between the initial stage when you were in love and a much duller or even angry subsequent stage. At this point, you and/or your spouse might start asking, "Did I marry the right person?" And as you and your spouse reflect on the euphoria of the love you once had, you may begin to desire that experience with someone else. This is when marriages breakdown. People blame their spouse for their unhappiness and look outside their marriage for fulfillment. Extramarital fulfillment comes in all shapes and sizes. Infidelity is the most obvious. But sometimes people turn to work, a hobby, a friendship, excessive TV, or abusive substances. But the answer to this dilemma does NOT lie outside your marriage. It lies within it. I'm not saying that you couldn't fall in love with someone else. You could. And TEMPORARILY you'd feel better. But you'd be in the same situation a few years later… Because (listen carefully to this): THE KEY TO SUCCEEDING IN MARRIAGE IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON; IT'S LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND. SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. It'll NEVER just happen to you. You can't "find" LASTING love. You have to "make" it day in and day out. That's why we have the expression "the labor of love." Because it takes time, effort, and energy. And most importantly, it takes WISDOM. You have to know WHAT TO DO to make your marriage work. Make no mistake about it. Love is NOT a mystery. There are specific things you can do (with or without your spouse) to succeed with your marriage. Just as there are physical laws of the universe (such as gravity), there are also laws for relationships. Just as the right diet and exercise program makes you physically stronger, certain habits in your relationship WILL make your marriage stronger. It's a direct cause and effect. If you know and apply the laws, the results are predictable... You can "make" love. Love in marriage is indeed a "decision"... Not just a feeling. Remember this always: "God determines who walks into your life. It is up to you to decide who you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let go." Together, we make it happen. Be effective, get results. Do what is right. Work together. Thursday, March 26, 2009 @ 7:50 AM
My Redeemer Lives! A colleague of mine shared this breathtaking video with me! It is truely worth watching over and over again. I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. - Philippians 4:13 (King James Version) Wednesday, March 25, 2009 @ 11:50 PM

Life Is Short The girl in the picture is Katie Kirkpatrick, she is 21. Next to her, her fiance, Nick, 23. The picture was taken shortly before their wedding ceremony, held on January 11, 2005 in US. Katie has terminal cancer and spends hours a day receiving medication. In the picture, Nick is waiting for her on one of the many sessions of chemo to end. In spite of all the pain, organ failures, and morphine shots, Katie is going along with her wedding and took care of every detail. The dress had to be adjusted a few times due to her constant weight loss. An unusual accessory at the party was the oxygen tube that Katie used throughout the ceremony and reception as well. The other couple in the picture is Nick's parents - Excited to see her son marrying his high school sweetheart. Katie, in her wheelchair with the oxygen tube, listening a song from her husband and friends. At the reception, Katie had to take a few rests. The pain does not allow her to stand up for long periods. Katie died five days after her wedding day. Watching a woman so ill and weak getting married and with a smile on her face makes us think… Happiness is reachable, no matter how long it last. We should stop making our lives complicated. Life is short Break the rules Forgive quickly Kiss passionately Love truly Laugh constantly And never stop smiling No matter how strange life is Life is not always the party we expected to be But as long as we are here We should smile and be grateful ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Below is a quote I found online :- Life is short, don't waste time worrying about what people think of you. Hold on to the ones that care, in the end they will be the only ones there. Sunday, March 22, 2009 @ 10:37 PM
Back From Koala Land Luffs and I are back from Perth! This city is the total opposite of Singapore - No tall HDB flats to be seen and the streets are all quiet at about 6pm. The country is clean and the weather is cooling. There are only a few lamp posts along the streets, making the place dark but peaceful. I have travelled to many countries but for the first time in my 24+ years, I saw the whole sky filled with bright and shiny stars. The view was awesome! We had a really enjoyable time and hope the holiday has been longer. ------------------------ Lots of photos were taken (I took 1,241 photos on my camera and Luffs has more than 2,000 on his DSLR), so look out for updates in this humble space. However it might take us some time to get all the photos uploaded. So, please be patient with us! Saturday, March 14, 2009 @ 6:20 AM

Incomplete He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ. —Philippians 1:6 When I was a little girl, my parents bought their first house. One afternoon, the family hopped into the car and drove to see where we soon would be living. I couldn’t believe it. The house had no windows or doors, and there was a strange odor. The basement was clearly visible through big gaps in the floor and we had to climb a ladder to get down there. That night when I asked my mother why they wanted to live in a house like that, she explained that the builder wasn’t finished with it yet. “Just wait and see,” she said. “I think you’ll like it when it’s done.” Soon we began to see changes. The house got windows, then doors. The “funny smell” of new lumber faded. The holes in the floor were covered and a staircase was added. Walls were painted. Mom put up curtains at the windows and pictures on the walls. The incomplete house had been transformed. It had taken some time but finally it was finished. As Christians, we need “finishing” too. Although the groundwork is laid at our conversion, the growing process continues throughout our life. As we obediently follow Jesus, “the author and finisher of our faith” (Heb. 12:2), one day we too will be complete. —Cindy Hess Kasper God sees in us a masterpiece That one day will be done; His Spirit works throughout our lives To make us like His Son. —Sper Please be patient. God isn’t finished with me yet! ----------------------------------- Wednesday, March 11, 2009 @ 9:00 AM
Mixed Feelings About Perth Hooray! We are only 3 days away from our Perth trip. Both Luffs and I are having mixed feelings about the whole trip - We are of course happy and excited, but at the same time we are feeling abit worried / stress / scared too. Hope everything will go on smoothly when we are there. The 12 of us will leave for Perth on Saturday morning (14 March) and they will return on 19 March while Luffs and I have extended our stay till 22 March so that we can visit more places, see more things and most importantly take more photos. I pray for journey mercies, Lord... Perth city, here we come! http://www.flickr.com/photos/daria_angeli/3214481911/ Tuesday, March 10, 2009 @ 10:27 PM
Singapore = Too Expensive ? Survey Shows Singapore is World's 10th Most Expensive City By Hoe Yeen Nie, Channel NewsAsia (10 March 2009 @ 1940 hrs) (Photo from http://www.flickr.com/photos/km1980/2944869534/) Singapore is one of the most expensive cities in the world, according to the latest survey by the Economist Intelligence Unit, which shows the city-state moving up five positions to 10th place. This means Singapore is now Asia's third most expensive city to live in. Claiming the top seat worldwide is Tokyo, followed by Osaka - no thanks to the stronger yen. But Asia is also home to the least expensive cities, with Manila and Mumbai near the bottom of the list. Others include New Delhi and Kathmandu. The Economist says the relative cost of living depends on two factors - local prices and exchange rates. And the global economic crisis has also led to some dramatic results. Iceland's Reykjavik was the fifth most expensive city last year. Now, using February exchange rates, it has fallen to 67th place. - CNA/yt Monday, March 9, 2009 @ 10:50 PM

Slumdog Millionaire We went to visit Baby Clover last night before coming home to catch Slumdog Millionaire and this would be the 4th movie Luffs and I watched this year.
Slumdog Millionaire is a pretty interesting show, and for the first time I thought that an Indian show can be so worth watching. This is an exciting story, yet heartbreaking and exhilarating at the same time. There is certainly some very good direction and acting - especially by the kids. The funniest part got to be when little Jamal let himself fall into a puddle of shit just to see his idol. That scene made me laughed. Hahaha… Isn't he cute? http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/slumdog_millionaire/ The young contestant is subsequently arrested and is interrogated at the hands of a nameless police inspector (played by Bollywood star Irfan Khan). As the interrogation proceeds, Boyle tells Jamal's story through harrowing flashbacks that both show the terrible poverty of Mumbai and help explain how he knew the answers to the MILLIONAIRE questions. Slumdog Millionaire is a tightly woven story that has been expertly edited into shape. The contrast between Jamal's upbringing and his chance of escaping it on the show are adeptly juxtaposed. Mumbai is portrayed as a place of terrifying poverty and unforgettable brutality, and Jamal and his brother get into a never-ending succession of challenging situations. But the way Boyle ties together Jamal's life experiences with his answers on the show is quite brilliant, and the film really does run the full gamut of emotions as we see him growing up, falling in love, coming close to death, and teetering on the brink of escaping from his terrible predicament. The film belongs to Boyle's cast, who are mostly unknown outside of India. Patel, in particular, gives a startlingly mature performance that audiences are likely to remember long after the credits role on this affecting feature. ” Wednesday, March 4, 2009 @ 11:10 PM
All I Have To Give Although Luffs and I have not decided on when our wedding customary + wedding dinner will be, I have been looking through (and admiring) some wedding blogs etc. I chanced upon this video which made me laugh. But it is damn sweet lah... The effort the groom and his groomsmen have put in and everything! Can't imagine Luffs and his brothers doing that. Well, actually I can! Luffs can be quite drama-mama at times. HAHAHA! Will I melt if Luffs were to do something like that to surprise me? Anyway, this video really looks damn professional lor - Just take a look at it! All I Have To Give - by Thane & Gang from David Soong on Vimeo ♥ ♥ ♥ Then I saw this pre-wedding photo clip on the Vimeo website - Also from David Soong. It is beautifully made, something different from the usual photo montage that we see at wedding dinners.
