the everyday

Did anyone realise, it's not just a new year, it's a new decade? Well, I just did.

So, notes to self:

No matter what, we win!

Don't give ourselves to the trivial and miss the significant.

'He has put eternity in their hearts'... only people last for eternity.

The gift of God of eating, drinking and enjoying all his efforts is not about what we eat or drink (though sometimes I really like what I eat or drink) but who we share them with.

I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice and enjoy the good life. -Ecc 3:12-

Back to the daily grind

Blessed Christmas and New Year!!

Firstly, when do we stop greeting people the above?? When is it too late? Right now, Christmas seems like a long time ago to me. But then again, Christmas is also everyday cause *cue singing* Christmas isn't Christmas till it happens in your heart...

Anyway, I've been away for 2 weeks and a bit and I'm now back in Melb. And my observations upon coming back, traffic seems to crawl so slowly. Driving at 60km/h seems like a cruise compared to the zooming around in traffic in kay-elle. For the record, I try not to speed (I can't afford a traffic fine). The air, it's dry and nice smelling, unlike the pollutant-laden  air of Msia. But, it's hot. Yes, compared to the rainy season AND La Nina effects on the motherland, it's currently hotter. It was humid but cool on most days and the weather was actually very bearable. Thoughts and prayers go out to those in Queensland suffering from the above mentioned La Nina that's resulting in crazy floods up there.

In and through all that rambling, I'm glad to be back! Bring on 2011!
