Remembering my beloved dad
Today marks 20 years since my dad left us.
Itβs comforting to know that
when it comes to the love and bond
between a father and his daughter,
there is no expiration date.
And his love and his spirit
will continue to live and linger on,
in my thoughts,
in my heart and
in my life.
βSay not in grief βhe is no more β but in thankfulness that he was.β – Hebrew Proverb
Quote of the day – H G Wells
βLet your love be stronger than your hate or anger. Learn the wisdom of compromise for it is better to bend a little than to break.β

New Year’s Eve Prayer (ΛΚΖͺΛ)
~Irish Prayer~
For every storm a rainbow,
for every tear a smile,
for every care a promise,
and a blessing in each trial.
For every problem life sends, a faithful friend to share,
for every sigh a sweet song,
and an answer for each prayer.

A rose for my beloved aunt
I picked a beautiful rose for you, Aunt Ying…
and I took a stroll down memory lane;
Memories of you have walked
beside me for four years,
and they have constantly filled
my heart with gladness;
I’m forever thankful
for this priceless treasure.
Today, in your honor
I celebrate life,
and think of you with
love, gratitude and fondness.

Christmas cake
“The ultimate in longevity is the Christmas fruitcake.
