2 great quotes today by Marianne Williamson:

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

"Children are happy because they don't have a file in their minds called "All the Things That Could Go Wrong."

Church tuition today is great, Joel & Wei Chong went to lead junior games for the first time. Not bad for first time, not enthu enough though haha, fun games, haha sometimes it's really enjoyable to see the kids enjoying themselves so well.

Watched Akeela and the bee at night. Rather standard storyline, but well one thing good is that they did highlight the importance of using appropriate or suitable speech in the right time. Eg when to use good english and when to use slang. So again I dont see why singlish is highly criticized. It's basically our culture. Not only singlish is a 'rojak' language, many of the words had differ their meanings from their original meanings. It's unique in a sense no country have this 'culture'.
