Love Covers All

Can we imagine if every single day in this world is a Valentine Day? Well I guess this world will be sick of Love. XD And yeah, how boring it's gonna be? Haha.. Valentine Day is just a moment to celebrate the Art of Love in this world. We just talk bout couples, family, friendship, chocolate, flowers, and.. so.. on.. But hey, how bout Valentine's Day become our own personal day by day? For me, the most important thing from Valentine's Day is the sharing of love. We don't have to wait for Valentine's Day to share our love. Let's learn to always have a Big Heart everyday. From what we have in our hands, bless others. Sometimes simple act has a big impact.

Even a simple act of kindness can make a big impression. The power of love is always stronger than we ever imagine. =D


1 Corinthians 13:1-8a and 13If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails....And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. (NIV)

Valentine by Kina Grannis

A lovely and simple song, comes with a sweet video clip. It's so creative! Found this song just few weeks before the last Valentine'10.

Love, it's a special day

We should celebrate and appreciate

That you and me found something pretty neat

And I know some say this day is arbitrary

But it's a good excuse, put our love to use

Baby I know what to do Baby, I...

I will love you I'll love you, I'll love you

Love, I don't need those things

I don't need no ring

I don't need anything

But you with me cause in your company

I feel happy, oh so happy and complete

And it's a good excuse, put our love to use

Baby I know what to do Baby, I..

I will love you I'll love you, I'll love you

Yeah, it's a good excuse, put our love to use

Baby I know what to do Baby, I..

I will love you I'll love you, I'll love you

So won't you be my honey bee?

Giving me kisses all the time

Be mine, be my Valentine

So won't you be my honey bee?

Giving sweet kisses all the time

Be mine, be my Valentine

Oh, be my Valentine..



Cheers,
Shannon

Happy Heart, Happy Me ^^















Since 2009, I just understand and got the idea of "Inside Out". Which means that anything from deep inside our heart will shine out as our daily emotion, personality, and attitude. How expert we are in covering and wearing mask, still some people could see the pure of sincerity from our heart. It's just a matter of time to get our true color to shine out. We need love, peace, hope, and joy in our heart to be happy. Yes, being HAPPY is the KEY to get our true color shine beautifully. I'm just an imperfect person who are learning to be a better person each day through God's process. And I can say that the journey of life is totally not easy, but it could be more colorful depends on how we look at it. It's our choice anyway. And I choose to believe that everything happens for a reason. So let's get up, be yourself, and stay happy ~ =D



Happiness is a choice. Happy people understand this, while unhappy people struggle with judging themselves for not being able to easily shift to a happy state of mind. The first step towards moving into a happy state is to understand that happiness can be learn. Happy words make a difference. When you frequently use the words that make you happy, your spirits rise. I bought a picture of happy quotes in one of the bookstores in Malaysia, called MPH. I stick it on the wall in my room. I love it and just want to share it out. =)
