After watching this, I really feel like a Berocca.

Anyone has a Berocca?

Finally the english translation of important signs in Beijing are up.

I’m still up and this one cracked me up…

I can’t sleep so I watched this video of Gladys Knight singing Midnight Train to Georgia with Ben Stiller, Jack Black and Robert Downey Jr which really made me smile.

Enjoy and good night!

The band talking about “issues” that affects us

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose - Romans 8:28

This is for all those who are angry or bitter about somebody….

Step 1: Don’t let the person consume you. You are not worthy of such treatment. The other person can’t help it but you are different. You have full control of what you do. So don’t treat yourself like this.

Step 2: Acknowledge them as your teacher. They are teachers because they have showed you one of these things
a) What you should do..
b) What you should not do..
c) What you should be..
d) What you should not be..
You cannot learn these things anywhere else (they are living examples). You learn not so much by what they say but by what they do or not do. Of course they will not know they are teachers, so don’t bother to go over to thank them because they will think you are silly. But God knows because God put people in your life for that purpose.

Step 3: Move to the next level of your purpose. You may be bitter because they hinder you from moving on. Instead of remaining bitter, move to the next level anyway. If you move to the next level, you trust God and not ourselves. We know it is wiser to trust God than ourselves. One way to know you are moving on is that you are learning great lessons. Read the bible, read a book, humble yourself to listen, ask and pray - Do whatever you need to get a lesson. Resist the temptation to teach one cos nobody is going to listen to a bitter person and you may get something else to be bitter about which negates all your effort so far.

Step 4: Laugh at yourself. Don’t take yourself too seriously. Try to join the circus. If you can’t (or if they don’t accept you cos you are bitter) then settle with just visiting one. Learn from clowns the greatness of laughing at ourselves and using that joy to cheer others up. When you laugh at yourself, you will most likely cheer others up and that’s perhaps the best thing you can do in the situation. Keep doing it, find humor in the situation .. until you are no longer bitter.

That’s the 4 steps I think will be useful to deal with the nasty thing called bitterness in us.

I held May Ann this morning and told her I’m so grateful to God of her everyday. I showed her what I read in Matthew 18:10, about kids having angels in heaven that always see the face of God. She turned to me and ask “Daddy, are you my angel?”. I said no, but I was humbled that she even thinks of that. Only kids think of people as angels. We are happy if adults don’t think of us as devils, let alone angels.

Mag works in Eurocopter, so in the afternoon we went at the Singapore Airshow at Changi Exhibition Hall as guests. The aerial and static displays were fantastic. We should have taken more photos but here are the few we took, I thought you may want to check out…

This one is with Mag’s colleague and her family:

It was so good to be upclose and personal with the Airbus A380. They had it fly so low for us in the aerial display before landing for us to check out.

Mag and the kids under the giant…

Me and Mag. …err sorry don’t know why there was an overexposure…

Never mind, this one’s good.

Hope you like the photos!

A girl one moment and in a matter of seconds, a vending machine. If you ask what’s the practical use? I’ll say its good for a laugh, for people to talk about it and spread it around.

Not many ideas are good enough to do that.
