leave it to us.

writing always make me feel better ..
i hope this entry has the same effect on me.

stress .. by work, by wedding plan.
and i’m feeling a little under the weather.
running nose, fever, cough.

i know some of you like to help me with the wedding but its really unnecessary. pumpkin is the groom & he is helping me.

please.. stop offering help. i will let you guys know if i need any.
otherwise, leave it to the bride & groom.

got from somewhere

you have seen the worst in people
people who can be friends or close relations
in circumstances that vary from the routine to those that happen once in a lifetime
there is no way you can predict what is to be expected
and to be perpetually on guard is exhausting and painful at times
but yet the moment you let down your guard
you get shot right at the back

you have seen the best in people
people who can be mere strangers or distant acquaintances
in situations anywhere, anytime
where they surprise you
with acts of kindness, words of encouragement
that totally throw you off your tracks
just when you thought the world was all dark and gloomy
you get an angel sent from heaven right before you

you begin to realise, that it is never fair
bad things happen to good people
good things seem to always go the way of the undeserving
but who are you to judge, who are you to decide
all you can do is to believe
that what a man sows, he will ultimately reap
not now, not soon, maybe a long time later
but it will always be so

you cannot control what another person can do to you
you cannot demand what the world gives to you
but you can determine to do good
you can decide to sow, believing
that in time, whatever you sow
you will reap, all in good time
again and again

that if hope is what you always offer to another
hope is what you will easily find in the bleakest moments
that if love is what you sincerely give
love is what you will eventually receive
