Even the most daring and accomplished people have undergone tremendous difficulty. In fact, the more successful they became, the more they attributed their success to the lessons learned during their most difficult times. Adversity is our teacher. When we view adversity as a guide towards greater inner growth, we will then learn to accept the wisdom our soul came into this life to learn.

How To Stay Young
1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height.
Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay them.
2. Keep only cheerful friends.
The grouches pull you down. (keep this in mind if you are one of those grouches)
3. Keep learning:
Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening,
whatever. Never let the brain get idle.
“An idle mind is the devil’s workshop.”
And the devil’s name is Alzheimer’s!
4. Enjoy the simple things.
5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.
And if you have a friend who makes you laugh, spend lots and Lots of time with HIM/HER.
6. The tears happen:
Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourself. LIVE while you are alive.
7. Surround yourself with what you love:
Whether it’s family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever.
Your home is your refuge.
8. Cherish your health:
If it is good, preserve it.
I f it is unstable, improve it.
If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.
9. Don’t take guilt trips.
Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county, to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.
10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.

DH’s Passion For Cooking
DH got a slot for free training on some culinary course at AICA (Asian Institute of Culinary Arts) courtesy of her sister who’s teaching baking lessons to some applicants/workers on a cruise ship. It comprises of 8 Saturdays and he’s enjoying the experience so much.
As I know how he really loves cooking and this is one thing that would make him widen his knowledge in the world of culinary. Does this mean more sumptuous meals on the table?! I hope so! 😀 Though he got the so called “natural talent” for cooking, enrolling in such course is pretty much different as he gets to learn the trick and tips from the so called experts which in the end will make him excel more on the dishes he’s about to serve.
I just do hope it won’t end here, who knows we might be having the great chef daddy, as kids would refer to him.:)
here are some shots that he took during their actual presentation and his delish masterpieces. 🙂 It all looks yummy! I was kidding him that these are in reality the foods in Cafe World that I used to serve. LOL

Little Things
No matter how small and unimportant what we are doing may seem, if we do it well, it may soon become the step that will lead us to better things.
– Channing Pollock
There are times when I felt like giving up on my work as I felt that the things I am doing are just too easy and way beyond my capacity and oftentimes gets bored with it. But then there are instances that because of the proud know-it-all-attitude, I still failed and overlooked some points. One thing that I realized is that no matter how easy and boring it was, I must be grateful that I have a job, not everyone gets to have one.

Go For It
you will be disappointed
by the things 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
