wedding vows…

My favorite vows….

1.

I love you. 
You are my best friend.
Today I give myself to you in marriage.   
I promise to encourage and inspire you,
to laugh with you, and to comfort you in
times of sorrow and struggle. 
I promise to love you in good times and in
bad, when life seems easy and when it
seems hard,  when our love is simple,
and when it is an effort.  
I promise to cherish you, and to always
hold you in highest regard.
These things I give to you today,
and all the days of our life.

2.

We pledge to each other to be loving friends
and partners in marriage.  
To talk and to listen, to trust
and appreciate one another; to respect
and cherish each other's uniqueness; 
and to support, comfort
and strengthen each other through
life's joys and sorrows. 
We promise to share hopes,
thoughts and dreams as we
| build our lives together.   
May our lives be ever intertwined,
our love keeping us together.   
We will build a home that is compassionate
to all, full of respect and honor for others
and each other. 
May our home be forever filled with
peace, happiness and love.

3.

As we stand beside the ocean tide,
may our love always be as
constant and unchanging as these
never-ending waves that pour
beneath our feet, flowing endlessly
from the depths of the sea;
your love
came softly upon my heart,
just as the foam comes
softly upon the sand, and just as
there will never be a morning
without the ocean's flow,
so there will never be a day
without my love for you.
I pledge myself to you this day.
Our love will be as unchanging
and dependable as the tide; 
as these waters nourish the earth
and sustain life, may my constant
devotion nourish and sustain you
until the end of time.

4.

Today, we reaffirm our commitment to each
other as beloveds and partners in marriage.
We continue to strive to be sensitive to each
other's needs, to be open and understanding
with each other, and to share our thoughts,
our feelings, and our experiences
with each other.
We renew our promise to try always to bring out
the qualities of forgiveness, compassion,
and integrity in our selves and in each other.
We continue to cherish each other's uniqueness
.We continue to share in life's joys and remain
steadfast and comfort each other
through life's sorrows.

5.

Now you will feel no rain,
for each of you will be shelter for the other.
Now you will feel no cold,
for each of you will be warmth to the other.
Now there will be no loneliness,
for each of you will be companion to the other.
Now you are two persons,
but there is only one life before you.
May beauty surround you both in the journey ahead
and through all the years.
May happiness be your companion and your
days together be good and long upon the earth. 

Treat yourselves and each other with respect,
and remind yourselves often of what brought you
together. Give the highest priority to the
tenderness, gentleness and kindness that
your connection deserves.
When frustration, difficulties and fear assail your
relationship, as they threaten all relationships at one
time or another, remember to focus on what is right
between you, not only the part which seems wrong.
In this way, you can ride out the storms
when clouds hide the face of the sun in your lives —
remembering that even if you lose sight
of it for a moment, the sun is still there.
And if each of you takes responsibility for the quality
of your life together, it will be marked by
abundance and delight.

6.

You were born together,
and together you shall be forevermore.
You shall be together when
the white wings of death scatter your days.
Ay, you shall be together even in
the silent memory of God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of the heavens
dance between you.

Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress
grow not in each other's shadow.

7.

 promise to give you the best of myself
and to ask of you no more than you can give.

I promise to love you in good times and bad,
with all I have to give and all I feel inside
in the only way I know how,
completely and forever.

8.

 take you as my partner, my friend and my love.
My hopes and dreams will now be intermingled
with yours. I will seek to balance my needs with
those of our community and family.
I will openly draw from our combined experience
and feelings in our search for truth and meaning.
I will strive for harmony through compromise
and understanding.

I will be forgiving, but not complacent.
From this day forward, I take shared responsibility
for our marriage, family, community and myself,
regardless of our successes or failures.

I promise to be faithful and true to you in mind,
body, and spirit; to cherish you and respect you;
and to be a source of comfort and encouragement,
free and bound by our love, as long as we shall live.

my resignation letter…

MEMORANDUM 

May 2007

MY BOSS's BOSS

Head, ?????? Dept

Dear Sir,

Please accept this letter as my formal notice of resignation as (my position) of  this Department, effective June , 2007.

In lieu with this, I would like to express my deep gratitude and acknowledgment to (my company's name) for being the first company to provide a big break for an aspiring (my profession) like me. It’s so hard to leave a good company of people, whom I treated not as ordinary friends and colleagues, but as an extended family away from home. I personally thank the whole (my Dept.'s name) Group for giving me the opportunity to excel and to reach to the status where I am now. Without your full support and understanding on my weaknesses, I may not have reached this stage.

But things are not permanent as it may seem. Things are all changing, and the only thing we can do is to move on, aim and reach not only for the better but for the best we can be.  Opportunities are coming and going, it's up to us when to miss or when to grab it.  But this time, I have chosen to grab this opportunity.   Although, this will be another beginning in my life and career, I'm sure that the future will be as bright as what  (my company's name) had offered me for the last years and  months.

I'm leaving this company with great gratitude and hope that I may continue to live on with the skills set and values that molded me to what I am now.  It's my great pleasure working with a team that helped me developed my interpersonal skills and had helped me expressed what needs to be heard.  For all those times that I may have deviate from your expectations, my sincere apologies.

It is with utmost sincerity, that I extend once again my gratitude to the management, the admin staff, and the rest of (my company's name)community, for being a great part of my career and my personal life. 

Sincerely yours,

My Designation / Position

Approved by:

MY IMMEDIATE SUPERIOR                                                                          

happy birthday, my love!

Happy birthday, baby!

I miss you.

I miss the touch of your hand,
so reassuring and sincere,
and the moments we spend together,
that I hold dear.

I miss all of the caring
things you do,
and spending the evening
alone with you.

I look forward to tomorrow
knowing that then,
I'll be one day closer
to seeing you again.

You must have
guessed it by now…

I miss you so much!!!

If only you knew,
how my heart overflows with love for you.
If only you could see
the way you fill my hopes and dreams.
You're the owner of my heart,
the ruler supreme.
Even in the dark of night,
I've only to think about you
to feel your loving light
and from this world I drift
feeling as if
I'll never touch the ground again…
If only you knew.

If only you could guess
how I hear your voice when others speak;
for you hold the key to my happiness,
and it's always you my soul seeks.
If only you could feel,
how your very presence
has the power to heal,
all the wounds inside me.
You've made me abandon
the pain of yesterday,
and you've shown me
that the past can no longer
stand in the way
of what I hope to achieve…
If only you knew.

If only you could realize
the way you've shown me
that it's better to give
than to take,
and whatever I do,
I do for your sake.
I'm willing to give you my all
and expect nothing in return.
But, oh how I yearn
for you…
if only you knew.

If you only knew how much I love you!

Hoping your love for me stays the same….

the human head contains 22 bones???

The human head contains 22 bones, consisting the cranium and the facial bones. The cranium is formed by 8 bones: the frontal bone, two parietal bones, two temporal bones, the occipital bone in the back, the ethmoid bone behind the nose, and the sphenoid bone. The face consists of 14 bones including the maxilla (upper jaw) and mandible (lower jaw). (The skull has many little holes in its base which allow the cranial nerves to travel to their destinations.)

The cranium protects the brain, which, for an average adult male weighs about 1400 gram (49oz). The brain of Russian novelist Turgenev, weighed 2021g (71oz), Bismarck's brain weighed 1807g (64oz), while that of famous French statesman Gambetta was only 1294g (46oz). Female average brain mass is slightly less than that of males. The largest woman's brain recorded weighed 1742g (6oz). Einstein's brain was of average size.

An elephant's brain weighs 5000g (176oz or 11 lb), a whale's 10000g (352oz or 22lb). In proportion to the body, the whale has a much smaller brain than man. This seem to give man the edge, until it was discovered that the dwarf monkey has 1g of brain per 27g (0.95oz) of body, and the capuchin monkey has 1g of brain per 17,5g body, whereas man has 1 gram of brain to 44g of body.

Most scientists believe that "photographic memory" is a myth. Clever people train their brains to remember well. In fact, as humans we simply do not remember things well. Of the three beings known to be able to recognise themselves in the mirror, the orangutang, the dolphin and the human, only the latter turns around and instantly cannot remember what his/her own face looks like. (Try drawing a picture of yourself without looking in the mirror:)

The human brains consists of more than 100 billion neurons (nerve cells) through which the brain's commands are sent in the form of electric pulses. These pulses travel at more than 400 km/h (250 mph), creating enough electricity to power a lightbulb. The brain consumes more energy than any other organ, burning up a whopping one-fifth of the food we take in.

It is estimated that the mental capacity of a 100-year old human with perfect memory could be represented by computer with 10 to the power of 15 bits (one petabit). At the current rate of computer chip development, that figure can be reached in about 35 years. However, that represents just memory capacity, not the extremely complex processes of thought creation and emotions.

But consider this: for all the complexity of the brain, you still have only one thought at a time. Make it a positive thought.

Factoids
One-quarter of the brains in used to control the eye. We actually see with our brains, with the eyes basically being cameras.
You're born with 300 bones, but when you get to be an adult, you only have 206.

how can i fall???

reasons behind feelings….

Why can't we let go of that somebody and of the feelings that we have for that person?

When we already know that it's time to move on and set ourselves free?

What's holding us back from continuing our journey?  There are other roads to take and other doors to open

But why do we keep ourselves contained in the same situation? When we already know that the same situation just keeps spinning in circles, When it seems like there is no end to all the things that we go thru?

And yet we hang on until our patience run out, until we have shed the last tear drop, until every fiber of our being can no longer sustain all emotions.

Why can't we let go?

Good memorable moments for us are worth keeping. That is why we obsess over the thought or the situation, making it very difficult for us to move on. So we stay attached, mentally and emotionally, sometimes even sexually. We think that if we hold on to that special someone (who we think is special at that moment), that there would be a chance for things to change.

And of course we always think that things would change for the better.

For that matter, we give that "somebody" so many chances, we give ourselves reasons or should I say "excuses" not to end the so called "relationship". In the end, we find ourselves hurting and crying. . We find out that we are just fooling ourselves, that no matter how long we stay in that relationship or situation and how much we give, NOTHING will change for the better. Rather, things change for the worse.

So why stay? Why can't we let go?

Some people stay in relationships feeling obligated to be a good boyfriend or girlfriend.

They get scared of breaking up because they think that no one else will love them and accept them for who they are. Or maybe they think that they would not find anybody better than their bf or gf.

This is even after they realize that the feelings that they have had already faded away.

Some would feel like they "owe" that other person so much because of the good intentions that that individual showed to them. And because of this train of thought, those people feel compelled to be in a situation that they don't want to be in. So they get stuck and would later on complain that they want out but they don't have the guts to break lose.

This is not the feeling of love or being in love, it's the feeling of being secure with the other person. Because being secure means no more pretenses, no need for facades, no need for mind games, just acceptance of all that's good and bad about someone.

It is true though… why would you let go of somebody who loves you very much and who accepts you for who you are? It's hard isn't it? But the real question is… "Are you happy?" and "do you still love this person?" If the answer is yes… then there should be no doubt in your mind that this person is the one for you. That thru thick and thin, you will be willing to go thru hell and back with him or her.

But if there is doubt… be fair, to yourself and to that individual. You are the only person who knows what is right… you know how you really feel. On some occasions, people are drawn together because of physical attraction and sex. These are the people who get together NOT because they trust, love and understand each other but they bond together because they act upon their needs and desires.

Some of us might ask: "Does it ever go beyond the physical or sexual phase?"

Whether we dare to admit it or not, if two people spend enough time together, often times feelings get developed. It may not be as strong as falling in love but the attachment and passion is still there.

When feelings grow, there may be times where one feels more than the other, that person might get emotionally attached without wanting those feelings in purpose.

And in order for things not to get spoiled, that person would usually try to control how he/she feels especially if he/she does not have a clear understanding of where he/she stands in the other person's life.

People who are in this kind of predicament typically put their guard up in fear of rejection; in fear that the other person would not feel the way they do; or in fear that if they reveal their real intentions and feelings, the other person might lose interest. . So they get content just staying in that situation without having any emotional involvement, with no strings attached and no obligations.

But deep inside they hurt, they cry, they wonder. On the other hand, they remain involved maybe because they hope that they would end up having an intimate and meaningful relationship with their partner (dream on!)

Some may be so infatuated with the other person that they would mistakenly consider how they feel as being "in love". They get so blinded by each moment they spend time with that someone because it makes them feel good and wanted even for just that instant.

In the bottom of their hearts, they long for that person to care for them the way they do. The truth is… nothing will change the way that other person feels for them. It will be no more than just a physical attraction, an enjoy-for-the-moment kind of situation.

It sucks doesn't it? But that is reality. You could never make someone like you, care for you or love you. You could only give so much but in the end if that other person still doesn't see you as someone they could spend real time with, you have to learn how to cut him/her lose because you will end up just playing the role of a "meantime" boyfriend or girlfriend, no more no less.

In every relationship, once it ends, it always leaves someone feel a sense of longing and emptiness.

It is worst when things are left unsaid and unfinished.

So people tend to hang on to the good memories they had with the other person

And they end up wondering and questioning themselves of what they have done wrong or "why this, why that", "what if…", or "how if".

Typical for a broken-hearted individual but how could he or she help it? It's like having someone read you a story without telling you the ending of it. Would you not wonder about what have had happened or how it ended?

It's the same thing when someone leaves you for no reason. You tend to "think too much"; you try to look for justification for that person's actions, It's mind-boggling when all these questions are running in your head and all you have for answers are merely speculations.

You keep hoping that if only you could talk to that person one more time, you might be able to get some answers and have a peace of mind once and for all (but once you do get the answer, most of the time it's not something you would want to hear) 

So the more you think, the harder it gets to make a new start for yourself; the harder it is to accept the fact that what you have with that someone is over; therefore, you tend to hold on to your misery longer than you ought to. So what is there to do? All advises from family and friends could be helpful in times of heartache. It doesn't cure the hurt and pain but at least it eases it a little.

Along the way, you will find yourself having more strength to go thru the day.

For a lot of people, the company of friends or even just acquaintances is the best way to keep their sanity in tact. Whichever manner you try in order for you to get by is all up to you because despite all the advises everyone tells you, "Heartbreaks will last as long as you want and cut as deep as you allow them to go.." (this is a quote I read somewhere)

Reasons of the heart sometimes can never be explained. We do what we feel because we know what makes us happy. Even if it means taking the chance of getting hurt over and over.

We tolerate pain, we endure heartbreaks, we hold on to instances that need letting go, we sacrifice, and we take risks not withstanding the consequences of our actions.

As we all know, life is full of uncertainties. And we, as human beings are always scared of the unknown.

So we hold back from doing what we think is right because it means that we have to get out of our comfort zone. It puts the fear inside us because we are dependent on the feelings we have for that someone.

We forget how it is to live without them because we are so used to them being around us. We become inconsiderate of our own feelings that we sometimes fail to remember that things just don't work out the way we want them to…no matter how hard we try.

We should know by now that patience has its limits and love also dies, and sometimes the only thing that's left is learning how to let go! 

Letting go is not the end of everything, some say it is the beginning of a new journey.

For me, it just means that we have the will & power to pick up the pieces and the courage to say goodbye.

think twice…

Every day should be a good day and you should live it like it’s your last. Some people live a life of anger, frustration, pain, jealousy, and/or dishonesty, but all of these things will come to pass when your time here is over.Just take a moment to think . we will not be on this earth forever. One day, we will not have to worry about going to work or how we will make our car payment. We will not have to worry where our next meal will come from, or how we can buy that $300,000 house.
At anytime, God could take us off of this earth, so you should appreciate today and not worry about tomorrow, for nobody knows what tomorrow will bring. When you wake up each morning, thank the Lord for waking you up. When you lie down to sleep at night, thank the Lord for another day. If you have a job, thank the Lord for your place of employment. .Ask that he may bless you in everything that you do.. Ask him to give you the knowledge and the wisdom to do your job.
If you don’t have a job, thank him anyway. Ask him to direct you to the job that is right for you.

When you are eating breakfast, lunch or dinner, say a prayer. Thank the Lord for providing food and nourishment to your body. If you are healthy, thank the Lord for the health and strength in your body. If you aren’t, thank him anyway for life, and ask him to heal your body. So the next time that you get mad, think twice.
The next time you complain about something at your job, think twice.
The next time you say you wish you had steak instead of chicken, think twice.

Be thankful for what you have, and the life that God has given you. Pray and ask the Lord for guidance. Be sincere, as God knows whether or not we mean it from the heart. Help those in need as a gift from your heart, and not so you can get a pat on the back. Put forth the extra effort in everything that you do. Go after what you want in life, and do whatever it takes to achieve your goals. No matter how perfect you think you are, there is always room for improvement, and an opportunity for you to do better. If you are depressed, don’t cry, just hold your head up and the Lord will help you through. Pray and ask the Lord to deliver you from your state of depression. Whatever it is that you are depressed about, God will take that pain from you heart. It may not be at that moment, or that next hour, or maybe not even the next day, but he WILL do it if you just believe in him.

God may not show up when YOU want him to, but he’s ALWAYS right on time. God will not give us more than we can bear. Sometimes he will present us with issues that will test our faith, but you have to be strong enough to believe that God will do exactly what he says. The message for today is to praise the Lord, have faith in the Lord, give thanks to the Lord, and live every day like it is your last.

Theoretically speaking, if the Lord never does anything else for us, other than wake us up each day, put food in our mouths and clothes on our backs, we should thank him anyway. He died so that we could have life on this earth.

Your time is your life. That is why the greatest gift you can give to someone is your time.
Relationships take time and effort, and the best way to spell love is T-I-M-E because the essence of love is not what we think or do or provide for others, but how much we give of ourselves.

God is good all the time!
