Evolved


Here I am before you 
Falling in love and seeking your truth 
Knowing that your perfect grace 

Has brought me to this place  
Because of you I freely live 
Here I am, I stand with arms wide open 
To the one, the Son, the everlasting God

Some who claim themselves as Christian and have been attending to church services for years, 
still have no ideas how to be a Christian.
Faith without action is dead.
Have you heard of being a Christian is actually inviting Jesus in you and love everyone like Jesus loves you?
This practice is not only subject to a Christian, but to everyone of us.


When you see people, what do you see?
Most of the us only see the sins that people have.
Who are we to judge people??? Who never have sin? Who never make mistake?
Stop wasting time and energy over small and insignificant things.
Stop wasting time and energy grieving about the past.
Open our eyes and our hearts, ask what can we do to make the world a better place?
There are too many meaningful things waiting for us to achieve!
If we continue to be a self-centered person, our next generations will still have to suffer in a selfish world like us.


Instead of envying what the others have achieved, please ask ourselves:
Did I ever fully utilize my talent?
God gives us talent to serve the world, to do something different, to help the disables, 
otherwise we are just like the others - Lifeless.
If we think that we have nothing, there is really something over there.
Please look at what we have in our hands, rather than looking at what we don't have.


What kind of faith you have?
What are you fighting for in your life?
Bigger house, branded handbag, latest handphone, power, fame?
Oh you still don't know the real happiness is actually the feeling of content after you gave a helpful hand to the needy ones.


Please ask yourself again, what are you fighting for?

Rapunzel



Day and Night
Night and Day
Waiting for the Prince
Her hair becomes shorter and shorter
but her neck grows longer and longer...



03.12.2011

This would be my last portrait in Melbourne for the year 2011.
Another great shooting experience - we were warned by the security guard of the building.

I am now back home in Malaysia!
The journey back Kuala Lumpur last year was a turbulent, mom forgot to leave the house key for me,
on top of that I also couldn't reach my best friends' mobile phones.
With no mobile phone credit and with a few of pennies, I had to borrowed money to spent a night in a budget hotel.
This time I boarded a midnight flight, reached Kuala Lumpur at 6.30am then caught a 9am flight back to Kuantan. Didn't really fall asleep during the 8 hours flight, I was so tired.
The distance form LCCT to KLIA takes only 15 minutes but I had to spent a shocking amount of taxi fare.

Everything looks familiar yet strange back at home:
Malaysian  drink filtered drinking water or boiled water instead of tap water, which is is sweeter and smoother.
The rubber in my short pants has harden because it wasn't been wore for a year.
The voice of my soon-to-be-eight-year-old dog has changed, maybe it's the sign of aging. Even some people I known have passed away.

Dad looked like a Rapunzel with a long neck while waiting for me at the local airport.
I gave dad a big smile, opened my arms to hug my him.
He was shocked.
I then hugged my brother. He was feeling uneasy as well. Funny.
At least I did hug my family at last although this was the first time I hug them!
Our dog DingDong was waiting at the door as usual when we finally arrived at home.
Expecting her to welcome me but she passed by me and went for dad istead. Sad!!!
For the next few hours I was trying hard to make DingDong recognize me.
Now finally she remembers me, she would knocked my room door at 7.30am just to use my toilet for a morning loo. From stranger back to buddies!
She remembers how I play with her.
She remembers how I kiss her face.

Imagine what's the feeling like when our parents or grandparents do not recognize us?
Imagine what's the feeling like for our parents and grandparents when we ignore them?
After listening to grandpa's tragedies during the World War II, I must always remind myself to be grateful.
We were born because of our ancestors' courage and strong will to live during their turbulent times of war.
Forget about all the excuses how busy you are to earn all the extra money,
nothing is more worthy than seeing the big smiles on our parents and grandparents faces when you spent some time visiting them.

Bare in mind that we only have one family in this world.
