Words are our most
Monday 15 April 2013 @ 01:05 | 0 notes

All my life I've been taught the power that words carry, from experiencing the harshness of it all and it's ability to cut deeper than any blade to its remarkable ability to restore and empower lives. And the scariest part is that all of us have been given this power. Quoting from spiderman (cause I'm a nerd like that), with great power comes great responsibility, and we are all responsible for how we choose to use this 'gift' that we have been given.

For one, choose to speak only the positives. We do not have control over the situations that arise in our life, however do have the ability to control our reactions. And truth is, negativity never makes a situation better, it only adds fuel to the fire. Negativity breeds greater negativity. I honestly hate being around people who have a negative disposition because hearing all those discouraging words and just being around that negative energy in general really affects me. Like what all parents tell their kids - if you have nothing nice to say, don't say it. Trust me, it's not always easy to do so especially when the situation gets you all rifled up, but it doesn't hurt to just take a step back and clear your mind. I think speaking positives help to make you a happier person as well, because in order to speak positive things you need to start thinking positive and soon by doing a simple act of saying positive things you're making your way towards living a happier life. 

Secondly, don't abuse the gift that we've been given. Don't use words to bring others down for your own benefit, don't use it to make you feel better about yourself. Because abusing a gift like that to make yourself feel a wee bit better for that split moment, isn't worth it. Words can do terrible things and one might not be ready for the consequences that come along with it. And when you destroy others, you end up destroying yourself along with it. 

Words can lead to life or destruction and the choice lies within you. 

Here's little insights from Cheryl's thoughts of the day :)

Snapshots of my food adventures of late .x
Home cooked laksa, freshly baked goods from Tiong Bahru bakery, eggs royale & parmesan chicken with caesar salad, tantalizing treats that I'm glad to savor
Food is a form of escapism, spending hours in the kitchen whipping up a storm or finding solace in a tiny cafe somewhere, it gives us peace of mind and allows us to escape from this world for a little while.

Photo Diary // LIBON I
Friday 5 April 2013 @ 01:21 | 0 notes












































Warm smiles on the faces of the people, pure joy written on the faces of the little children, the genuine friendships forged, these are just some of the things that I miss the most about Libon.

Days like this, I thank God for the invention of the camera and its ability to document these precious memories. The pictures certainly don't make up for everything, but they hold a certain bit of magic as they help us relive the memories when we chance upon them. That familiar face, the building we constructed, that smile, I might never ever get the opportunity to see it in person once again but I'll always have these memories that I will keep close to my heart.
