“Life is like a rainbow. You need both the sun and the rain to make its colors appear.”
“Have faith in your dreams and someday your rainbow will come smiling through. No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep believing, the dream that you wish will come true.”
I wish you peace when the cold winds blow
Warmed by the fire's glow
I wish you comfort in the, the lonely time
And arms to hold you when you ache inside
I wish you hope when things are going bad
Kind words when times are sad
I wish you shelter from the, the raging wind
Cooling waters at the fever's end
I wish you peace when times are hard
The light to guide you through the dark
And when storms are high and your, your dreams are low
I wish you the strength to let love grow on,
I wish you the strength to let love flow,
I wish you peace when times are hard
A light to guide you through the dark
And when storms are high and your, you dreams are low
I wish you the strength to let let grown on,
I wish you the strength to let love flow,
I wish you the strength to let love glow on
I wish you the strength to let love go on.
"One of the deepest feminine pleasures is when a man stands full, present, and unreactive in the midst of his woman’s emotional storms.
When he stays present with her, and loves her through the layers of wildness and closure, then she feels his trustability, and she can relax."
- Osho
Wow what a beautiful quote or I should say what a man! I can imagine his warm wrap, tight and secured holding her with his hand touching her hair soothing her or looking into her eyes with an understanding soft smile... No words needed. All the anger, sadness, misunderstanding or argument whatever it is resolves itself in his tender sea of love.

Come with me, my love To the sea, the sea of love I want to tell you how much I love you

Gratitude means thankfulness, counting your blessings, noticing simple pleasures, and acknowledging everything that you receive. It means learning to live your life as if everything were a miracle, and being aware on a continuous basis of how much you’ve been given. Gratitude shifts your focus from what your life lacks to the abundance that is already present. In addition, behavioral and psychological research has shown the surprising life improvements that can stem from the practice of gratitude. Giving thanks makes people happier and more resilient, it strengthens relationships, it improves health, and it reduces stress. Melody Beattie said it best, “Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.”
Goodnight my friends and sweet dreams on my part of the world, for those on the other part, enjoy a beautiful day/ evening, love and blessings always (((^-^))) ♥Nocturne♥ Sung by Secret Garden
Now, let the day Just slip away So the dark night may watch over you
Velvet, blue Silent, true It embraces your heart and your soul Nocturne
Never cry never sigh You don't have to wonder why Always be always see Come and dream the night with me Nocturne
Music Rolf Lowland Have no fear When the night draws near And fills you with dreams and desire
Like a child asleep So warm, so deep You will find me there waiting for you Nocturne
We will fly claim the sky We don't have to wonder why Always be always see Come and dream the night with me Nocturne
Though darkness lay It will give away When the dark night delivers the day Nocturne
In Chinese culture moon is of great importance for telling the time as we can see in the Chinese lunar calendar. So as a metaphor, "the moon represents my heart" do have a profound meaning in the inherent romantic sense and the magical everlasting love feeling. Love is always there even you cannot see it or touch it. It changes and replenishes through time like the moon. It is seemingly different but it is always the same. Underneath the veil of a half-moon, or crescent moon or moonlessness, there is a full moon just waiting to appear. Oh where is my moon....
♥The Moon Represents My Heart♥
Sung by Teresa Teng
English Translation
You ask me how deep my love for you is,
How much I really love you…
My affection is real.
My love is real.

You ask me how deep my love for you is,
How much I really love you…
My affection does not waver,
My love will not change.
The moon represents my heart.
Just one soft kiss

A period of time when our affection was deep,
Has made me miss you until now.
You ask me how deep my love for you is,

As I recalled the song of Everly Brothers "All I Have To Do Is Dream" last night. I came across this song. Wow I have not listened to it for so long, almost thirty years. I remembered it was played in the classroom by my English teacher. I still love this song. Sadly I can feel so much for this song now...
♥Crying In The Rain♥
Sung by Everly Brothers
I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All my sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain
If I wait for cloudy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you so
Though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Rain drops falling from heaven
Could never wash away my misery
But since we're not together
I look for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Some day when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool but till then darling you'll
Never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Today I had a wonderful day studying the words of God in a bible study lady group. We have it every second and fourth Wednesday of each month in the early afternoon. After the bible study, I bought some food and drove Peggy home. She invited me to have some tea which is a very special Chinese tea (Yeng Seng Tea) and I helped her download all the photos I uploaded on my blog here regarding the visit to her house last time. She is a very nice old lady, a retired midwife. It reminded me of my best friend in school, who is a midwife too. Some old memory comes back. I have been a student nurse for one year. I had my first true experience facing death, a dead body that I wrapped it up like a sweet. That night after that the after noon shift, no one was at the nurse quarter. It was the first time that I slept alone and I had all the lights on. I woke up every hour. I think subconsciously I was scared. After all I was just 19 years of age. Later on, I heard a lot of ghost stories which happened in the surgical theatre, nurse quarter and wards. I was bothered by those and without much thinking, I quit and studied again. After having listened to the story about delivering a premature baby from Peggy, I wonder if I did not quit, what my life would be, a midwife, a doctor's wife...I fall into my fantasy, my dreams...
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
When I feel blue in the night
And I need you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam
I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I'm dreamin' my life away
I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam
I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I'm dreamin' my life away
I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
FADE
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Wish you a pleasant night and sweet dreams my dear friends (((^-^)))
Stop fighting but embrace life. Let it unfold as it is. Calm your mind. Don't let thoughts lead you in circles. Be still to be back to the centre. Find peace from within. Just flow...
"Act without expectation.
No seeking, not expecting .
Be present, welcome all things.
Those who flow with Life flows
know they need no other force.
Nature doesn’t hurry,
yet everything is accomplished.
Be still, just remain in the center, watching;
and then forget you are there.
Stillness reveals the secret of eternity."
I just felt like crying today when I got all the mix up feelings, good or bad, questioning about life, all the why...I hope things get better and see the blue sky again rather than all the tears filling in my eyes drowning me in the river of tears...
♥When The Last Teardrop Falls♥
Sung by Blaque
It's so hard to lose the one you love
To finally have to say goodbye
You try to be strong but the pain keeps holdin' on
And all that you can do is cry
Deep within your heart you know it's time to move on
When the fairy tale that you once knew is gone
[Chorus:]
When the last tear drop falls
I'll still be holdin' on to all of our memories
And all of what used to be
When the last tear drop falls I will stand tall
And know that you're here with me in my heart
When the last tear drop falls
So now I'm alone and life keeps movin' on
But my destination still unknown, oh yeah
Will there be a time when I'll fall in love again?
When I was meant to walk these streets alone
If there was just one wish I could be granted here tonight
It would be to have you right back by my side
[Chorus]
Now it's time for me to find my happiness again
And the emptiness from missin' you
Will never ever end, baby
Today I cried a river after thinking quite some things happened recently. I just keep on experiencing things that I don't understand. Man, a species that being so different from woman, always gives me headache. Here below the poem is what I can feel now. How a man can behave as if he loves a woman but actually he is not but hurting and he can honestly say I do love you. Oh my goodness...
Yesterday before I slept, I watched a movie called "Seducing Mr Perfect" stared by Daniel Henney.
I love it and want a Mr Perfect just like that, Daniel Henney, tall, handsome, full of sunshine, smart, thoughtful, loving, caring and loyal.
The Korean songs are beautiful as usual (((^-^))) :
"Kissing me" as inserted above and this song "Sweet Sorrow - Tangdanghan Kunyoga Arumdada" with the following link which I could not insert the video strangely:
Super moon is on this weekend 22 June and 23 June. This will be the moon's closest encounter with the earth for all of 2013. Essentially I’m a romantic, a poet and a dreamer, the moon is a light in the darkness, a thing of wonder that effects life’s cycle, something to behold breathlessly as it casts it’s eerie light over our lives…I hope you enjoy a magical weekend!! Many blessings...
The Summer Solstice sunset more than an hour ago. Good time to catch some sleep under moonlight (((^-^))) Wish you a beautiful dreamy night with this beautiful music:
"Moonlight over the old Church of Kilronan" by John Doan played by Harald Peterstorfer

Aww today is such a special day, the longest day in a year and I happened to get up at 4:45am the sunrise time because of my son who got back to Hong Kong on his own for summer holiday. I slept less than three hours because of packing things and drove him to the coach station before 6am. After getting back, I tried to sleep but my sleep was broken on and off checking on my phone for him as his plane was 12:30pm actually. Due to the poor sleep, I suffered from nerve pain on my left neck which indicates me going to be sick. That is the sign of my body complaining. So the whole day I tried to catch some sleep and drank some natural flu shot. I have just found some time online checking the Summer Solstice pictures and realized that how beautiful sunrise and sunset at Stonehenge. One day I would love to have a visit to this sacred place and would do some more research when I feel better. I hope you are doing well. Have a blessed beautiful day and weekend, much love, light and peace always (((^-^)))
MY WISH AND BLESSING FOR YOU (((^-^)))
♥Forever Young♥

May God bless and keep you always,
May your wishes all come true,
May you always do for others
And let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
May you grow up to be righteous,
May you grow up to be true,
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous,
Stand upright and be strong,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
May your hands always be busy,
May your feet always be swift,
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be joyful,
May your song always be sung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
I whisper my dream
to the universe my creator
I hope there is someday
Someone make me feel
how worthy, special and precious
I am to him
The queen, the soul and the one
that he has long been waiting for
We are alike with differences
in personalities and upbringing
Yet the mystical connection in between
are far beyond reason and understanding
Is it the souls calling for each other
There are times that we think
the same thing at the same time.
There are enjoyments in the endless
talk about everything.
There is no fear but sacredness
deep within
With patience and trust
we accept each other
for who we are without
restrictions and deceptions
judgement and control
Love embraces and endures all
Can I say this is it with no doubt
my twin flame
my smile
my inspiration
my world
Who are you
Where are you
When is that someday
That someone appears
Wow is all I can say
Awe is all I can feel
I wish today was the day
I am waiting for that someday
that someone
not anyone
but the one
my twin flame
To the universe my creator
I whisper my dream
Time flies. It is summer again with long daylight until almost 9pm now and much more sunny day. How cool is that!! Planning planning...I need to enjoy a great summer. Yet for now it is a beautiful evening, still shinning bright with cool breeze. I wish I can relax outside at my backyard but heaps of improvement needs to be done. I need a helping hand. I am going to search online for a gardener and design inspiration. Nevertheless, I can visualize one with the help of a beautiful pic to enjoy a lovely magical evening...
Birds chirping out loud on a cloudy day, flying high and low, dancing around. Brother wind and Father sun have not shown up so far. Aww my garden has loads of work waiting for me since Spring came. Maybe I should stop here and get up to start my busy day. Just remember, feel good and awesome to attract all the good things your way. Whatever happened in the past, step on it as lessons. Dream big and fly high. Yet most importantly live in the present, the beautiful gift of God. What matters most is NOW and live as if you only have NOW. So live life to the fullest joyfully whatever life unfolds. Cherish, rejoice and relax. Notice all the little things in life where all beauty lies. Let the inner child sing and dance through your day. Have an awesome day!! Smile and Shine my beautiful friends (((^-^)))
Yesterday was a beautiful day. I, Wendy and Frances went to pay a visit to Peggy who lives in the St. Nicolas Hospital retirement housing for old people. She lives on the first floor. A very bright place with four sided windows in the whole apartment. The picturesque view is fantastic. We had a very enjoyable lunch: egg noodles with seafood, some delicious chewy fish balls from Singapore and crunchy bean sprouts. I brought the Korean style pancake cooked at home. It is actually garlic chive fried with egg and potato starch serving with a sesame vinegar fish sauce. Ingredients of the pancake and sauce is optional in accord with your personal favourite and availability. After lunch we had Chinese green tea with strawberries and cherries bought by Wendy and Frances in Tesco. After long chats, we went down to Peggy's garden for her veggie and flowers. There are so much to see and Peggy gave us some garlic chive and a kind of veggie for us to bring home as food and planting in our own gardens. As we were tired digging out the root, we rested and chatted a bit in her garden. Later Peggy took us to her old garden on the other side where she planted a fig tree years ago. We saw some figs hanging on the tree. How lovely!! The big garden around the hospital is beautiful and peaceful. I took many pictures. We then went back to Peggy's apartment and had tea again. As we talked, Peggy said there is a cherry tree down there with sour cherries and people use them to make a wine. She let us taste some. It is awesome like the Japanese plum wine. We chatted and chatted. Time flies, when I arrived home, it was already 7:30pm. It was such a wonderful day. What a beautiful life can be from simple living!

Today is Sunday, a day for rest to worship God. Yeah I am going to have a Chinese worship service soon in an hour and going to get ready. Today is also Father's Day. I said blessings to a friend who is a father and he said blessings back to me. I said I am not a father but he said you have a father. Oh I totally forgot, I had a father. I told him he passed away three years ago when I moved to England and we talked about his sudden cause of death: colon cancer.... My kid is having exam even not they do not like talking with their father who lives elsewhere in the world. So a Father's Day does not mean much to us. Well I did receive a call from my kid's father today asking when am I going to find a job. Yeah I love to find a job and get independent. Easy or not I am going to find one. Yet my feeling is complicated. My path is unknown. There are things that I have longed for but maybe that is not real. There are so many things that I do not know or cannot comprehend in the universe. I know what I need to do or should feel and have faith in God, the great creator. Everything is unreal but God and only God is Love, Light and Peace. Yet my heart still sink and become heavy. Once in a while, I just want to walk in the desert, embrace the silence under the blue moon...
"There is a desert
I long to be walking a wide emptiness, peace beyond any understanding of it." - Rumi
Today I came across some very beautiful poems from Rumi and would like to share with you a very beautiful one in which you can feel the love in music playing from the heart, filling up the air, rising to the moon, just open your heart and listen...
Do not worry if our harp breaks
thousands more will appear. We have fallen in the arms of love where all is music. If all the harps in the world were burned down, still inside the heart there will be hidden music playing.
Do not worry if all the candles in the world flicker and die we have the spark that starts the fire. The songs we sing are like foam on the surface of the sea of being while the precious gems lie deep beneath.
But the tenderness in our songs is a reflection of what is hidden in the depths. Stop the flow of your words, open the window of your heart and let the spirit speak….!
Today my brother Jason asked me "In one hour there was 487 violent crimes, 1 murder, 4 rapes, 290 thefts, and 75 overdoses..... Is there no hope for the human race?" I said "The world is so big with so many people and some are insane having no sense of right or wrong because of their background. What can I say? It is just out of control but still we need to hope for the better and there are still lots of decent people. I think we need to focus on the good side and be positive to attract good things and have peace."
May we find peace and love from within even in the midst of turmoil in life and all the insaneness and tragedy happening around the world, which are totally out of our control but walking our path on earth until we return back to the embrace of our great creator in eternity. What we can do now is to make a little difference to make a better world no matter how small it is and it all begins from oneself.
