Like MooMoo is not having ENOUGH....

This month is definitely not a good month to start with for MooMoo... Some more now her favorite handphone is stolen. MooMoo thought she could go for a stretch at Balance class in the gym to release some stress...BUT...it turned out to be more stressful after that when she found out her beloved handphone is gone. The most heartache thing is all the stuff in there especially the photos are all gone. Losing the phone, can buy new one but some things lost are just gone forever. Sigh... Losing something so physical can be so heart-breaking...cannot imagine losing someone.


* Quotes from this book that MooMoo is reading right now called,"Keep Going: The Art of Perseverance".


"In life there is sadness as well as joy, losing as well as winning, falling as well as standing, hunger as well as plenty, badness as well as goodness. I do not say this to make you despair, but to teach you reality. Life is a journey sometimes walked in light, sometimes in shadow."


"You did not ask to be born, but you are here. You have weakness as well as strengths. You have both because in life there is two of everything. Within you is the will to win, as well as the willingness to lose. Within you is the heart to feel compassion as well as the smallness to be arrogant. Within you is the way to face life as well as the fear to turn away from it."


"Life can give you strength. Strength can come from facing the storms if life, from knowing loss, feeling sadness and heartache, from falling into the depths of grief. You must stand up in the storm. You must face the wind and the cold and the darkness. When the storm blows hard you must stand firm, for it is not trying to knock you down, it is really trying to teach you to be strong."


"Being strong means taking onemore step toward the top of the hill, no matter how weary you may be. It means letting the tears flow through the grief. It means to keep looking for the answer, though the darkness of despair is all around you. Being strong means to cling to hope for one more heartbeat, one more sunrise. Each step, no matter how difficult, is one more step closer to the top of the hill. To keep hope alive for one more heartbeat at a time leads to the light of the next sunrise and the promise of a new day."


"The weakest step toward the top of the hill, toward sunrise, toward hope, is stronger than the fiercest storm."


"KEEP GOING."
