| Tonight, when the clock strikes 12 in the dead of night, gently open the door to bid farewell, with due respect and honour, to a most memorable year- a year of uncertainties, a year of opportunities, a year of pain, a year of survival, a year full of lessons thrust upon us, a year of awakening, a year laced with sorrow and sighs of relief, a year of fear, a year of disaster, a year which shook us and forced us to shed our false values and embrace true ones.. We survived! And as we bid goodbye to the departing year, let us open our arms to embrace a New Year of Hope, a year of Faith, and yes, a year of uncertainties even, now that we are all better equipped to take everything in our stride! Happy New Year to u, all my loved ones! May God bless us all.. |
| Silent night, holy night! All is calm, all is bright Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child Holy Infant so tender and mild Sleep in heavenly peace Sleep in heavenly peace Silent night, holy night! Shepherds quake at the sight Glories stream from heaven afar Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia! Christ the Savior is born Christ the Savior is born Silent night, holy night! Son of God, love's pure light Radiant beams from Thy holy face With the dawn of redeeming grace Jesus Lord, at Thy birth Jesus Lord, at Thy birth |
| This is my prayer for all of us: May we find peace in this traumatic time, May we find joy in these sad times, May we never forget that empty chair at the table, May our love never diminish and may God bless us with continued good fortune when so many of us haven’t made it through to this Christmas. Hope you all have a blessed and peaceful Christmas. |
| How many circles can you find in this picture? This picture is called the "caissons illusion" and was designed by the American Anthony Norcia. At first glance, it seems that there are only many lines and squares, but there are still circles in the picture. Some people can see the circle right away, but some people can't find it for a long time. Have you seen the circle, how many? It is said that...you have signs of dementia if you can't see it! |
