BECAUSE YOU LOVED MECELINE DION
For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
current health status: lack of seratonin

back from FLINT
kenshukai! well honestly, it was rather chaotic but its FINE because i know the comm put in a lot of effort in planning it(: caught up with a lot of peeps whom i haven met for ages, like
YINGLIN (the pretty girl), VANESSA (the one who really touched my heart with her song) and many many others! during the
kenshu, i was once again reaffirmed that i will NEVER NEVER be an ACCOUNTANT!! its really just a job too tedious and tiring! for that, i salute mummy who is an accountant!
haha!
enjoyed two sessions the most during the
kenshu, dialogue with GD and dialogue with
YWD Chief, Lay
Huay, and Senior Advisor, Ming
Har. i really learnt
alot esp from lay
huay and
ming har about how we can approach inactive members and do
shakubuku. it all boils down back to one thing, sincerity. more often than not, it is your sincerity of wanting the other party to achieve absolute happiness, wanting them to experience the greatness of this Buddhism, and wanting them to lead a value creating life that really touch them. and also, whenever a member rejects your call or avoid you, the most important thing is to never give up on them. these members are your members for a reason; nothing in life is by chance or coincidental. so for that, you have to take responsibility for it, and when you do, you will definitely change the person's life and also do your own human revolution. but that will definitely happen only when you base yourself on faith in the
Gohonzon.
another point shared by them was about leading a victorious life. what does it mean to lead a victorious life? is it about achieving many many awards and prestigious competition, or is it about you being a famous star, or is it about you scoring a perfect score for every exam? well that is one aspect of it, but one can only say that they have led a victorious life when they have overcame their daily weaknesses and inspire the others to do so too. it is only when you overcome your small small daily weaknesses, such as being late for school, not doing your
gongyo conscientiously, then you can strive big in life. because in these everyday struggle of yours to overcome problems, you are actually training your character, polishing yourself for bigger battles. and when those battles do arrive, you will be all prepared to welcome it and overcome it, achieving absolute victory. and when that happens, others around you will be inspired by you and they will also be curious about the secret behind your success because actual proofs are the ones that really encourage others because they witness it themselves. so what is the secret behind your success? that is none other than faith in the
Gohonzon (:
for that, i will ensure that those members under my care will be actively participating in
ASD activities this year and they will be able to grow and score many many victories in 2009(:
there was this person who really touched my soul
ytd. i almost cried when i hear her speak of her testimonial and the reason behind the song. and after hearing her piece, i re-read the lyrics and felt that it is really applicable to me too. presenting THE NEW DAWN, written by VANESSA
PHANG(:
NEW DAWN.
There were times when I found myself,
walking down this familiar path.
There were times when I found myself,
asking why some nights are so long and tough.
Life can make a sport of us
Sometimes,
When we try so hard,
Yet reap no rewards.
Devilish functions on a roll;
But just as we thought
Why do we always trip and fall;
Have we forgotten,
We've got the ultimate treasure of all?
Life the crimson sun,
Emerging from the New dawn;
Living the Mystic Law,
I'd remember my mentor's call;
The darker the day,The nearer the dawn.In the crossroads we find ourselves,
Uncertain;
of what lies ahead.
Engulfed by emotions,
Overlooking the treasure in our hearts.
Wasted time in blind pursuit,
Of what was deemed, significant
Fighting so hard for those relative-
ness,
Neglecting my absolute happiness.
Life condition taking its toll.
But just as we thought
Why do we always trip and fall;
Have we forgotten,
We've got the ultimate treasure of all?
Life the crimson sun,
Emerging from the New dawn;
Living the Mystic Law,
I'd remember my mentor's call;
The darker the day, The nearer the dawn.Let me renew my vow,
Sensei.
To be leaders of this new dawn.
Like a flame
alit in the dark
Let my spark fly
But just as we thought
Why do we always trip and fall;
Have we forgotten,
We've got the ultimate treasure of all?
Life the crimson sun,
Emerging from the New dawn;
Living the Mystic Law,
I'd remember my mentor's call;
The darker the day, The nearer the dawn.A New Dawn,Has begun.with that, i shall end here and school is starting in tomorrow! screams! busy week ahead! institution planning cum meeting, reunion dinner, khaki gathering, training!
jiayous puen(:
good luck to all who are collecting their '
O's tmr! to
nicole and
freda! i hope you two can come over to
vj(:
good luck to those who are still having your Rs! you guys can do it!
