Mark Twain said, “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
This quote appears on a Web site intended to help people discover what they are passionate about so they can live with greater significance.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Personally i find this very meaningful.
Indeed, sometime we will sigh over things/thinks that we should have done earlier, but how often do we really realise its important at that time.
For me, i do have a lot of regrets for the misses in my life. How i wish the time would go back so that i will have another chance to do or to redo it again. That is never the case cause we all know that, time is like water the same stream of water that flow pass you now and the water 5sec ago is never the same though they are in the same stream. There is no ways we can retrieve it.
Many a time, how i wish i could be like what Mark Twain said, "So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
Am i really ready for it? I really don't know..

Waiting For Joy
Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. —Psalm 30:5
A large part of life centers around anticipation. How much we would lose if we were to wake up one day to the unexpected announcement: “Christmas in 10 minutes!” The enjoyment in many of life’s events is built on the fact that we have time to anticipate them.
Christmas, vacations, mission trips, sporting events. All grow in value because of the hours we spend looking forward to them—eagerly running through our minds the fun, challenges, and excitement they’ll bring.
I think about the value of anticipation and the thrill it can bring to the human heart when I read Psalm 30:5, “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” The psalmist is declaring the comforting idea that our earthly sorrow lasts but a short time when compared with the anticipated joy that will begin in heaven and last forever. Paul pens a similar idea in 2 Corinthians 4:17, where we discover that our “light affliction” leads to a glory of eternal value.
For now, those of us who weep can dwell on hope instead of hopelessness and anticipation instead of sorrow. It may be nighttime in our hearts, but just ahead lies the dawn of eternity.
And with it, God promises the endless joy of heavenly morning. — Dave Branon
Tribulation, grief, and sorrow
Are but heaven’s stepping stones
To a bright and glad tomorrow
Where no heartache can be known. —Glass
We can endure this life’s trials because of the next life’s joys.

Lend A Hand
The next month will be very difficult for many people who are still reeling from a loss this past year. The crippling hurt caused by the absence of a loved one can cloud holiday gatherings and even dim the desire to celebrate the birth of Jesus.
Poet Ann Weems has written:
Some of us walk into Advent
tethered to our unresolved yesterdays,
the pain still stabbing,
the hurt still throbbing.
It’s not that we don’t know better;
it’s just that we can’t stand up
anymore by ourselves.
On the way to Bethlehem,will you give us a hand?
In Romans 12:9-21, Paul gives ways to express practical Christianity in our relationships. One seems especially needed at this time of year: “Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep” (v.15). We can “give a hand” to grieving friends and family by understanding their sorrow and not expecting them to “get over it” in time to celebrate the holidays. We can freely mention the name of the person whose death has brought such desolation and then share a fond memory. We can be quiet, listen, and pray for God’s help.
Only God can heal the deep wounds of the heart, but we can lend a hand. — David C. McCasland
If I can help some wounded heart,
If I can by my love impart
Some blessing that will help more now—
Lord, just show me how. —Brandt
No one is strong enough to bear his burdens alone.

Holding Your Hand
Nevertheless I am continually with You; You hold me by my right hand.
—Psalm 73:23
One of the joys of being with kids is holding their hands. We do it to keep them safe while crossing the street, or to keep them from getting lost in a crowd. And whenever they stumble and lose their footing, we grab their little hands tighter to keep them from falling.
That’s what God does for us. Inevitably there are stones and cracks that trip us up on the sidewalks of life. That’s why it’s easy to identify with the psalmist, who said, “My steps had nearly slipped” (Ps. 73:2).
We all face a variety of issues that threaten to make us stumble. For the psalmist Asaph, seeing the prosperity of the wicked caused him to question the goodness of God. But God squeezed his hand and reassured him that, given the judgment of God, the wicked do not really prosper. True prosperity, the psalmist discovered, was found in the fact that God was always with him: “You hold me by my right hand” (v.23). And just for good measure, God reminded him that He would also guide him through life and ultimately welcome him home to heaven (v.24). How good is that!
So, next time you stumble, remember that the powerful hand of God is holding your hand and walking you through life—all the way home! — Joe Stowell
Many things about tomorrow
I don’t seem to understand;
But I know who holds tomorrow
And I know who holds my hand. —Stanphill© Renewal 1978, Singspiration.
Let God do the holding and you do the trusting.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I need someone to hold onto my hand and tell me that, "I am continually with you".
I am longing for that touch of safe and secure feeling to keep myself going after i stumble. I pray that the touch will never be disappeared but will be there when i fall and i too will be there when someone needed me to hold his/her hand.
Nevertheless I am continually with You; You hold me by my right hand.

Serve Or Die
Dr. Paul Brand told me of a memorable Frenchman named Pierre, who had served in Parliament until he became disillusioned with the slow pace of political change. During a harsh winter, many Parisian beggars froze to death. In desperation, Pierre became a friar to work among them and organize the beggars themselves.
They divided into teams to scour the city for bottles. Next, he led them to build a warehouse out of discarded bricks and start a business processing the bottles. Finally, he gave each beggar responsibility to help another poorer than himself. The project caught on. In a few years he founded the charitable organization Emmaus.
Eventually, there were few beggars to be found in Paris. So Pierre went to India. “If I don’t find people worse off than my beggars,” he said, “this movement could turn inward. They’ll become a powerful, rich organization, and the whole spiritual impact will be lost. They’ll have no one to serve.”
At a leprosy colony in India, Pierre met patients worse off than his former beggars. Returning to France, he mobilized the beggars to build a leprosy ward at a hospital in India.
“It is you who have saved us,” he told the grateful patients. “We must serve or we die.” — Philip Yancey

Flawed And Frail
One of my boyhood heroes was Davy Crockett, the “King of the Wild Frontier.” I looked up to him, admiring his courage and exploits.
Years later, my brother gave me a book that traced the experiences of the real-life David Crockett. I was surprised by his humanness. The real Davy Crockett made mistakes and had serious personal problems. The book depicted him as both flawed and frail.
This was both disappointing and reassuring to me. It was disappointing because he was less than I had come to believe, but reassuring because that reality made Crockett more accessible to me—and even more of a hero.
In the Bible we see that God consistently used people who were far less than perfect. That shouldn’t surprise us. God is glorified by showing Himself strong through our weaknesses. It shows us that He desires to work through our lives not because we are perfect but because He is. And since He uses weak and foolish things (1 Cor. 1:27), it means you and I are prime candidates for His work.
The Lord isn’t looking for superheroes. He uses those of us who are flawed and frail, so that He can show His strength and grace. He wants those with a willing and available heart. — Bill Crowder
It’s not in the flash of the style that you hone,
Nor all the degrees you’ve compiled;
The Savior is looking for servants who own
The warm, willing heart of a child. —Gustafson

Share some interesting geography fact.. which i happen to discover while reading through this passage. And its quite true.. If you are free you can look it up at the america map.
They Never Meet
Did you know that the farthest point east and the farthest point west in the United States are both in Alaska? It’s a geographical trick, actually. Pochnoi Point in the Aleutians is as far west as you can go and still be in the US. But if you travel a few miles farther west, you’ll end up at Alaska’s Amatignak Island. Because that spot is west of the 180th meridian separating the Eastern and Western Hemispheres, it is technically east of the rest of the US.
But you’ll never find a spot where east and west are actually next to each other. In going west, you never “find” east. East goes on forever. West goes on forever. They never meet. You can’t get farther from something than that.
What difference does this make? Just this: When you read in Scripture that your forgiven sins are separated from you “as far as the east is from the west” (Ps. 103:12), you are assured that they are an immeasurable distance away—gone forever. If that’s not enough, try this: God says, “I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; and I will not remember your sins” (Isa. 43:25).
Concerned about your sins? Through Jesus’ death on the cross, God is able to say, “What sins?” But He will do that only if you put your faith in His Son. — Dave Branon
“Oh, East is East, and West is West,
And never the twain shall meet.”
So far has God removed our sins:
Salvation is complete. —Hess
We invite defeat when we remember what we should forget.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Interesting fact isn't it.. East and West will never meet.
There is also another saying, "We must always learn from our mistakes."; "No one will fall into the same ditch twice".

Another song..
[-.-]hope this songs let u understand how i am feeling now, my heart was aching since that day..[-.-]
Have being listening to this song for the past few days.
Share with you guys n gers..
---------------------------------------------------------
听 你开心说着 你的事情
我有一种莫名心跳反应
夜深人静时候突然想到你
没有原因 没有逻辑 谁能说明
总以为 我们是 地球的南北两极
直到分开旅行 我才明白
有好多的话 想说给你听
是我笨的可以 我们早就相遇
我说服我自己 这一切只是友情
是你让我相信 两颗心没有距离
我才发现 原来我爱着你
总是爱捉弄我 寻我开心
从来没有想过 会喜欢你
也许爱情就是没什么道理
缘分来临 措手不及 谁看得清
总以为 我们是 地球的南北两极
直到分开旅行 我才明白
有好多的话 想说给你听
是我笨的可以 我们早就相遇
我说服我自己 这一切只是友情
是你让我相信 两颗心没有距离
我才发现 原来我爱着你
是我笨的可以 没看穿你的心
还以为这只是爱情无聊的恶作剧
是我笨的可以 我终于面对自己
勇敢证明 我是真的爱你
我是真的爱你
http://www.520music.com/play/228397.htm
清晨的路口还有你的面容
其实我还是不懂
到底哪里出了错
寂寞的双手 现在选择沉默
忍不住想挽留 话却说不出口
一时的勇气 抹不掉伤心回忆
我以为我了解你
该离开的人是我
我竟然还手足无措
太倔强的我还企图装洒脱
自从你离开以后
爱你的眼泪很寂寞
习惯你的我习惯不自由
付出了太多 平衡不了是我
手心手背都是肉
怎么错的都是我
你用了冷漠 狠狠的错怪我
是你欺骗了我 我不能先低头
一时的勇气 抹不掉伤心回忆
我以为我拥有你
该离开的人是我
我竟然还手足无措
太倔强的我还企图装洒脱
自从你离开以后
爱你的眼泪很寂寞
习惯你的我习惯不自由
没有用的人是我
都怪我太不甘示弱
即使舍不得让你一个人走
自从你离开以后
我选择在原地守候
失去我才懂是我不成熟
都怪我自己太不甘示弱

Songs can help to express our thought and feeling. Having the right song at the right moment can be a comforting thing. If i was to choose a song to represent my current feeling, i would like to have this song..
NEVER LET YOU GO..... By: Janice
The rain, just never seems to bring
The joy, I feel the same
Everlasting pain of my loss remains
My heart, can't seem to learn to part
The hold you left the mark
All that I dreamed of now it seems so stark
Tho I told myself won't hold my breath
A part of me was dying
There is nothing left for me to do now, but give in
If you gave me, one more chance to tell you how I was feeling
I would sing to you and tell you I won't live my life without you
If you gave me, one more chance to tell you how I was feeling
I would hold your hand and look in your eyes and ya know, I'd never let you go
The way, you left me on the train
I don't know what to say
I remember everything on that day
I can't believe we'd never dance
I just need one more chance
To share the sunset our one last romance
Tho I told myself won't hold my breath
A part of me was dying
There is nothing left for me to do now, but give in
If you gave me, one more chance to tell you how I was feeling
I would sing to you and tell you I won't live my life without you
If you gave me, one more chance to tell you how I was feeling
I would hold your hand and look in your eyes and ya know, I'd never let you go
Below are the 2 link to the song. Hope you like it.. ( '_' )
Class Participation
As a high school teacher and college professor, I have observed that learning is a cooperative effort between the student and the instructor. That’s why educators try to get the student involved in class participation. The teacher does some work; the student does some work. Together progress is made. Education happens.
In Psalm 119, the writer suggests a similar pattern in verses 129-136. God is the teacher; we are the students.
Let’s look at God’s role in our education. He shows us mercy (v.132). He guides our steps (v.133). And He redeems us from outside trouble (v.134).
But first we must be eager students, ready to accept God’s teaching, guidance, and help. We should enter His classroom with anticipation: “The entrance of Your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple. . . . I longed for Your commandments” (vv.130-131). In our role as students of God’s Word, we should fulfill three requirements: (1) examine God’s words for what they are teaching, (2) gain understanding from those words, and (3) obey His statutes.
It’s time to enter God’s classroom and listen and learn from Him. When we do, we’ll look at God with renewed love and at the world with renewed concern (v.136). — Dave Branon
Thy Word is like a deep, deep mine,
And jewels rich and rare
Are hidden in its mighty depths
For every searcher there. —Hodder
Careful meditation on the Scriptures makes for a closer walk with the Savior.

Another post..
From my point of view for this passage.. Instead, we must be eager to learn and ready to accept only through it then we can gain knowleadge that are beyond what the books can teaches us.
Learning is a long journey which has got no depth. It is like time and tide, which wait for no men; like jewel that are rich and rare, which are hidden in mighty depths.
It is a journey which require individual to do constant searching, studying and reading.

Another post..
From my point of view for this passage.. Instead, we must be eager to learn and ready to accept only through it then we can gain knowleadge that are beyond what the books can teaches us.
Learning is a long journey which has got no depth. It is like time and tide, which wait for no men; like jewel that are rich and rare, which are hidden in mighty depths.
It is a journey which require individual to do constant searching, studying and reading.
