My Cairo experience

I believe everything happened for a reason.. God has his plan for everything... This cairo trip isn't that bad after all.. My set of crew are really nice.. I finally went to the pyramid after so long... The camel ride is totally fascinating... I simply admire the talent of the ancient Egyptian They build everything without the help of any technology.. And it lasted for 5000 yrs... still standing proud and tall... Under such harsh environment.. Amazing!!

Next.. I wanna thank a very special friend.. I believe he must be a God sent angel... He lighted me up during my darkest moment here in Cairo. I was crying alone in my room.. Feeling all depressed n hurt.. He appeared quietly outside my room with a strawberry Swiss roll... Just bcoz he tot I have nothing to eat... He doesn't know what happened to me then... He wasn't aware that I m crying myself silly in my room... But when I received his SMS that he left something for me outside my door.. I was crying even harder... He wouldn't know how much it meant to me at that moment... He make me feel that i m not alone in this foreign land.. Holding the cake in my hand.. My heart instantly felt warmer... I was left speechless.. Just a heart filled with gratitude... He was plainly a stranger to me prior to this flight.. He can behave like every other crew.. And that is to leave me alone since I choose not to join them for lunch.. But instead he went the extra mile to buy food for me.. Even after I told him that I m not hungry... I can't express how much I appreciate this little action of his.. Maybe is bcoz he show up at the right time... Therefore i feel that my pain is a little more bareable then... Today after my tour.. I received a call from him.. He is checking on me over the tour, some little gossip and my depression the day before... I told him casually that i have strong craving for kfc.. The meal that I passed yesterday... Guess what.. A moment later.. He left a box of kfc outside my room.. I m seriously touch... I never know that kfc can bring such a magical feeling... At this moment.. I know that he is definately a friend to keep.. I hereby promise to be there for him if he need me.. Anytime... Anywhere...

Over this incident... He motivated me alot.. I tell myself that I wanna be someone like him... Keep spreading the love for others around.. Provide a helping hand to others in times of need.. Be a listening ear.. For those who wanna share... This world will definately be a nicer place to stay with selfless people like him... :)

Coen 201009

Today an important man come into this world. He is gonna be my very special little man. He is Coen [pronounce as co en] my beloved nephew.

i waited super long for his new book... MITCH ALBOM

I fall in love with this author since his very 1st book "The five poeple you meet in heaven". Alongside came along the all time classic publication "Tuesday with morrie". This is a book that i read countless time and still love it alot after every time. I remember my ex boyfriend even bought me the movie from an online site. I was thrilled when i received the pressie coz i dunno that they actually did a small production film on his book. It was a super-duper heart warming show. And i appreciate this gift alot.

His next piece of work is so far my fav. - "For one more day". It is so meaningful. A book that enriches my heart and soul. A story about mother and son. A reflection of everyone in a different perspective. His book always make me think and reflect. I've always pick up new theroy in life after reading his book. I remember that he mention something like Chick Benetto once spoken to a mountain climber. He ask him is it easier to climb up the mountain or is it easier to desend... the ans given is sooo good.

Now that i have just bought his latest book, i will keep an update on my fav. I dunno if this new book will outshine the previous one but i am still looking forward to start - Have a little faith.

i love marley...

i've just finish watching marley and me for the second time and its even better this time after i read the book.. gosh i simply love marley!!!

EMOTIONAL LAG TIME

Long before the heart is reay to let go, the mind wants to move on. This speedy thinking is fine for the mind, but it is not the way the hearts heals. The heart moves much more slowly. This difference can be compared to light and sound. For the sake of analogy, if the mind moves at the speed of light, then, in comparison, the heart moves at the speed sound. There is a significant difference.

In the physical world, we can objectively observethe difference between the speeds of light and sound. We don't question it because we can physically measure these different speeds. It is much harder to observe the mental and emotional world. Although we don't commonly see or measure the mind and heart, we must recongnize the difference to heal a broken heart successfully.

When we lose love, it takes a lot longer for our heart to adjust than for the mind. As soon as we think we ready to move on, another wave of painful feelings comes up. This ebb and flow of feelings is not only natural, but neccessary process. The heart does not let go in one step, but rather gradually and in waves, just as the tides our unresolved feelings come and go. At low tide, not only does the pain go away, but we discover one more degree of the power and knowledge within ourselves to find love once again. Thrn the high tide comes and we are flooded with unresolved feelings of anger, sadness, fear and sorrow. Through this process of grieving again and again , we eventually let go and find love.

At low tide, we may feel that everything is fine. In our minds, we have adjusted to the loss, and we are ready to move on. when high tide comes in we are suddenly facing our unresolved feelings again. One day you are optimistic and ready to move on, but then the next day you feel angry, sad, or afraid. While this may seem a little crazy, it is not. Just as light and sound travel at a different speeds, the mind and heart change, adjust, adapt, and self-sorrect at different speeds. In the healing process, it is normal and even healthy for feelings to lag behind the mind.
