I love tech. I really do. What’s not to love? Use it right, it’s mighty powerful to do & move lots of things in my work and my life. From making it so easy for me to share my moments with my close family to making the business world a tad closer though it’s 9363.92 miles apart!

But, really. What’s not to love?…
When it overtakes you, overtakes the people around you.

Been seeing this so often, in restaurants, in pubs…

So connected, yet so not.

I say, put aside the constant beeping and notifications. Focus on the person in front of you. It takes time and effort to arrange a meet up. Appreciate that. :)

Beautiful Sunday.
God rested on the seventh day, so should we worship and rest on Sunday too. The coffee and home made cupcake made it even sweeter! (Literally).

Dock yourself at your charging station wherever it may be, home (my best choice), outdoor… and get yourself prep for an awesome week ahead!

In my humble opinion, if there’s only two books in this world, the first one will be the Bible, the 2nd one is Billy Graham’s The Journey.

It’s been 3 months plus since my world crashed upon learning of my mom’s advanced cancer.

Day by day I’m learning to cope.

Day by day I grow stronger.

Day by day I learn to trust in Him.

Day by day I pray.

Day by day I learn to surrender.

Day by day I learn to let go of guilt and despair.

Day by day God is teaching me the meaning of life.

Day by day He is guiding me to see what’s important.

To cherish each and every day.

To don’t sweat the small stuff.

Less complains. Complain… for what??
For what, when minutes are ticking by.

Day by day, I learn about perspective.
What is important.

Pride is not.
Ego is not.

Selfishness is not.

Who’s right, who’s wrong is not.

Sweating the small stuff is not. When your perspective changes,a lot of things are merely small stuff held tightly in our heart, hardening it, gripping our lives.

My aunt emailed me this photo taken of my mom a week ago. Upon downloading it, my tears just flows. And I couldn’t tell if it’s tears of joy or sadness, really I couldn’t.

I’m so joyful that from being right-side paralysed due to the brain tumour, can’t talk properly, can’t write… here she is now, looking so gorgeous, do you see the kindness in her eyes, cooking for everyone again, signing her credit cards again (not good, not good), and I thank God for giving us every minute of this, every single minute.

At the back of my mind, I know that whatever happens next, I can’t really prepare for it. I don’t know the outcome. I can’t control the result. I just don’t know.

And that’s life.

You can control the planning and do whatever you want, but you can’t control the outcome.

You can have the best counsellors and psychologist on earth, but when all is broken, Faith is all you have. Faith is all you have to keep looking up, and walk one step, and the next.

When I finally realize this, I learn (still) to let go, trust and let God.*

*Is it a coincidence that this tough nut that wants nothing to do with God, came to know and love Him 3 months before my mom’s diagnosis?
I think not.
He has given me strength that I probably won’t have in this situation. He has given me the real reason of life.

Well said, well said. Plus the cookies taste not bad either. Lol!

Life: “You think that is tough??!! Try THIS!!!!” WHAM!! KER-POW!!!

As I was tucking in a simple dinner with my husband and daughter on Christmas Eve, I realized that this is the first year I’m celebrating Christmas as a Christian.

I reflected and shared with them, now I know what the Christmas songs mean! And it has so much meaning now when I sing it.

Christmas to me over the years meant new gorgeous dresses, dinners and partay!
Well, there’s nothing wrong with that except now my heart is in the right place, Home. :)

As I continued my dinner, this thought came to me: This is the biggest achievement for me in 2011. And I’m truly happy for that.

Have a blessed Christmas everyone.

Life, just like running your business or work- needs you to focus. Focus on what’s important.
If you got so busy and tired that end of the day, you have no energy to play with your kids…
No time for your other half,
No energy for your parents,
No space for Him in your heart

….

What’s the point? ;)

Well.

So, for Skype, step one of objective, to get people to pre-sign up and try = successful. Next, for step 2, to get those who trial for one month, find it useful enough to stay on and subscribe monthly = Calculate cost per lead vs actual subscriptions.

Skype can’t be a completely free model. To their credit, I’ve purchase my first credit with them. And I never regret the purchase. Apart from the free Skype to Skype calls, this really is useful. I have no worries of calling, sms, overseas, punching in stupid pins from pre-paid IDD cards. Thumbs up Skype!
