Life is not about the number of breaths you take but the number of things that take your breath away. We should live our everyday to the fullest. Till now, I am still trying to be the person who help more, reject less, praise more, criticise less, comfort more, upset less, cheer more, jeer less, love more, hate less...........
And maybe I can succeed one day with the strength given to me by God, the Almighty and also the encouragement and love showered upon me by my loved ones.

The Month of PresentsFor my birthday, my dear gave me 3 presents:
It was really thoughtful of her to find out what I need in a very subtle way and all these came as a huge surprise to me! Thanks dear for the hair conditioner, book on golf techniques and a brand new bracelet.For Christmas, as dear knew that I will be travelling quite intensively in the next few months, she asked his dad to buy me a suitcase all the way from US. Thank you my love!

Celebrating Christmas in the Green WayThis year’s Christmas season, if you realized, is a very wet and cold one. It was almost raining everyday in December and that was the closest we can get to have a snowy Christmas. Hence, there was no need to blast air-conditioners at home to simulate the Christmas feel. In Las Vegas, snow was seen for the first time and in China, the weather was exceptionally cold as compared to the past years.
My fiancée’s youngest sister showed me one trick to be green during this festive season and I am so proud of her. After she wrapped some presents, she took the scraps of wrapping paper to paste on those gifts that were meant for the family members. In this case, you literally fully utilized all the wrapping papers and thus avoid throwing the small and seemingly useless parts away. Moreover, you will save on the total amount of wrapping papers used and some trees too.
I once saw an episode on “Friends” when Monica Geller ironed the wrapping papers after opening the presents so that those papers can be re-used the next round. I think we may not need to go to that stage but it sure is an interesting concept.
