Inspiration

 Religion finds inspiration in art.in a movie form,Mel Gibson portrayed the passion of Christ.so Tan Dun drew inspiration from Dun Huang for his symphony creation Buddhas Passion fusing eastern n western music and classical with traditional and modern.how awe inspiring to fuse two different genres.kudos

Dance away

 

Female empowerment

 Gender violence is intolerable so if youve hit rock bottom start climbing out,a step at a time.inch forward and you will get out of the valley of despair.

Remember you can bend but never break cause it only makes you more determined to achieve your final goal.look towards the destination and dont look back.you will soon find yourself instead of being crushed by what life throws at you,youve conquered your fears and sorrows.you are possible again.

Travel is good for a womans soul.it broadens your horizon and widens your perspective.

We all know that travel is good for the soul. And in this case, we want to put a little bit of emphasis on how it's good for a woman’s soul.

“No matter what age you are, no matter where you are in life, even if you’ve had a family and had kids; actually, especially after you've had kids, go and do something like this for yourself, by yourself. It really does rekindle a sense of who you are, your purpose, your worth. It reminds you of what you love, and you will come back better for it. Your cup is full, and everyone in your life will benefit because you are now renewed and rejuvenated.”

Orchid care

 Ive found planting orchids tough as they are fussy.as epiphtes,they need to cling to barks of trees and doesnt like wet roots or overwatering.

So ive found planting wild orchids of southeast asia easier as ground orchids dont need coconut husks.they take direct sunlight and propagate easily on the ground.ive planted bamboo orchids and spathoglottis or purple passion.hope they bloom coz i put long term fertiliser granules in it.

One step at a time

 When the future seems cloudy and uncertain,i dont sweat the small stuff.i only have this moment and im taking one step at a time so i dont feel overwhelmed by things beyond my control.

Just live in the here and now for who knows what tomorrow will bring.your life can just change in the wink of an eye.perhaps love may come,perhaps i may move to a nation where i can see the change in four seasons,perhaps i may work in a bakery learning to make pretty cakes or i may leave the worldly life and enter the monastery as a spiritual seeker.

But all ive learned in school made me who i am today.to swim with sharks and take a risk.ad veritatum per caritatum is latin for to truth through charity.the values that shaped my thoughts as when the going gets tough,we Assuntarians keep going.thank you sister Enda Ryan for the life lessons were more useful than book knowledge and her encouragement to us to keep being a rojak nation where we integrate and need not assimilate so we keep back our cultural heritage and are proud to be who we are. Why whiten the skin,change colour of hair or eyes but we cant change our genetic make up or DNA.just be yourself.
