One bright star Suddenly my eyes were dazzled‚ I could hardly see at all. The music in my ears: such a heavenly call!

Praises filled the sky! So the celebration started As the life of Christ began. The King of love was born for the sake of man. One bright star shone out that night‚ Bringing

The Puzzle of Life horizontal rule I was given a puzzle a couple of months ago from a friend of mine‚ it had 1‚500 pieces. I haven’t put together a puzzle since I was a kid. Isn’t it funny how we stop doing certain things when we grow up: puzzles‚ coloring‚ playing dolls‚ hop scotch‚ hide and go seek. Things that brought us so much joy as a child‚ we stop doing when we reach a certain age - it’s a shame‚ isn’t it? I must admit‚ I really enjoyed the puzzle. Although very frustrating at times

Lies‚ Lies‚ Lies‚ Lies that’s all we hear. Is like if people now a day’s only know how to lie‚ and it looks like if they just don’t know how to tell the truth. For good or for bad‚ lies are still lies and at the end someone always ends up getting hurt. I really don’t know what is wrong with the world. People are lying to other people right to their face. How hard can it be just to say the truth!? To be honest at least for one time. I mean it’s not that hard and the feeling you get at the end could

Why do we rush through our lives‚ as if we were in a hurry to get somewhere? Take me anywhere‚ just not to here! Why so? Sure‚ I am the first to admit that goals are important in life‚ but if we don’t take time to look around and enjoy the journey our goals will loose their effect; they are to make us happy now. Today. That is why I like this simple Chinese proverb: “The Journey is the Reward” If we enjoy our journey our lives gain meaning. It’s as simple as that. Let’s not think that the only
