Another Series of Sunset

I teach at night, so I seldom to see the sunset from my window...

A Glimpse Over the Dark Sky

His life long Christ was the light of the world, but the very noontide hour of His glory was that hour when the shadow of eclipse lay over all the land, and He hung on the Cross dying in the dark.

At His eventide "it was light," and, "He Endured the Cross, despising the shame" and, lo! the shame flashed up into the very brightness of glory, and the very ignominy and the suffering were "the jewels of His crown.

Pedestrian Bridge on Lunar Year

This place is quiet on the first day of Chinese New Year

but so busy street in ordinary days.

How Great Are Your Works

It is good to give thanks to the LORD,
to sing praises to your name, O Most High;
to declare your steadfast love in the morning,
and your faithfulness by night.

Is it Night Yet

Another view from my window

Dark the night Yet is she bright,

For in her dark she brings the mystic star,

Trembling yet strong, as is the voice of love,

 From some unknown afar.
-George Eliot

Bridge the Gap

The Bridge connecting Nangang and Xizhi

“Your problem is to bridge the gap

which exists between where you are now

and the goal you intend to reach."

Keeping Myself Warm @ Home

taken 10.26.10

I'm having hot milk chocolate  in my favorite tin cup mug given to me by mister. I have this cup sent through mail in 2003 when mister was still working as part time in Starbucks - Las Vegas.

I'm feeling cold since our temperature dropped yesterday from 28°C  to 18°C . This kind of weather makes me want to sleep all day :). Take note that I live in a Tropical Country, so our winter here is really moist. We have lots of rain too. But I have to do my daily routine - schooling and teaching (and practice cooking... and blogging ;).

On my mind right now is my upcoming trip to Hong Kong this Friday tomorrow. My flight is 6:30 am, meaning I need to be there at least 5:00 am  5:30 am, I don't worry checking in since I can check-in online. I'm afraid I would switch off the alarm and go back to sleep...It happened to me last May (I went home in the Philippines), the plane left me I was late. I bought one way ticket doubled the price of my original round trip ticket :(.

In the morning, it was sunny.

All of a sudden, it became cold and windy.

Another Year is Added



Projected St. Francis Church
(I Love Jesus Project, praying for the early reconstruction)

Birthday Prayer

Thank you, God, for giving me another year of life.
Thank you for all the people who remembered me today
by sending cards, and letters, gifts and good wishes.
Thank you for all the experience of this past year;

for times of success which will always be happy memories,
for times of failure which reminded me of my own weakness and of my need for you,
for times of joy when the sun was shining,
for times of sadness which drove me to you.

Forgive me
for the hours I wasted,
for the chances I failed to take,
for the opportunities I missed this past year.

Help me in the days ahead to make this the best year yet,
and through it to bring good credit to myself,
happiness and pride to my loved ones,
and joy to you. Amen.

Card from Jane



Many thanks for the advance greetings :)
