when u r old

Just now as I went out to dabao (pack) my lunch from the yong dao hu stall nearby..
as I strolled back to my office along the old shophouse, I saw an elderly man..with lots of winkles on his face and body..kind of skinny..sitting and sleeping so soundly and comfortable in a chair along the corridor...

Thots came to me...how to I want to live my life when I am old..
Being like this elderly man..sleeping so soundly in the afternoon along the corridor when the breeze gently blow...is really a kind of blessing...
so peaceful and relax...while we have to struggle in our work or busy copping with work and life..
He need not be very rich..
in fact he doesnt look rich at all..
but yet he sleeps so soundly there.....as if enjoying the wonderful moments of relaxation...

I wanna be like him...when I am old..
resting and sleeping in a chair or couch peacefully in the afternoon while the breeze gently blow onto my face..enjoying the moment..
need not be rich..
contented with life...with no shortage of food and lodging..
its way enough for me to make me happy...

how about u?
Wanted to take that man's pic just now but still not familiar with my new hp afriad that my autoflash might wake him up from his wonderful afternoon dreams...
:)

Have a blessed day!
Cheers,
Angeline

Final Destination of Everyone

Money often deceive us, leading us to forget we will die some day. Poor people will die, Rich people will also die.
In the bible, it says to the Rich, today your life will be taken from you, what will happen to the riches you have stored up for yourself.
So be Wise- store up for yourself treasures in heaven which never rot as it has eternal value.
Our stay in this world is but only max. hundred over years..
but compare to life in eternity after death, what seems long here is but only a grain in heaven.

My Zodiac

Angeline's Zodiac Sign - TAURUS

9 may Taureans never slap or sting. Rather, they creep up on you, affect you deeply and leave their indelible impression on your soul. Think of Taurus as a long sensual kiss. A huge tender bear hug. Or an eiderdown on a cold alpine night. Taureans are warm (but sometimes stodgy) customers.

Many Taureans work with their hands. Even if a Taurus is a computer expert and seems more cerebral than manual, nine times out of ten there is a hidden craft or hobby lurking behind the scenes. Taureans enjoy forging beautiful things from natural materials. In fact, they are attracted to all sorts of beauty. Music thrills them. Flowers enchant them. The countryside seduces them. And art is their natural habitat.

Taureans are forever building their own workshops and renovating barns and old churches. They are not only home-loving, they like to get their hands into the cement and slather on the plaster, if only for the tangible joy of playing in the mud.

Taureans do not take kindly to sudden change. They like to be wherever they are supposed to be when it is time to be there. Taureans readily adjust to routine and for that reason make fabulous employees. Precipitous and unexpected events requiring flexibility and resilience may cause Taureans to dig in their hooves and refuse to budge. Bulls are obstinate and determined to hold their ground. It is wiser not to try to talk Taurus out of a sulk. Just let him paw the earth and snort and seethe on his own. Take a tranquilizer and a walk. Soon, when the inevitable becomes blatantly inevitable, Taurus will budge of his own accord, come out of his sulk and go with the flow.

Sensuality belongs to Taurus. Wherever there is pleasure you will find a Taurean plunk in the middle of it all. They love to bask in the "good life." Taureans cannot resist the tug of the opposite sex. When an attractive newcomer arrives on the scene, count on Taurus to see to it that the outsiders have a drink, are made comfortable and have slipped Taurus a telephone number or two.

Taureans are amorous and romantic without being flighty or maudlin. They are tender and don't mind public displays of affection. Love and all of its expressions appeal to the Bull. Taureans can be counted on to stray a bit where sex is concerned, but they never flaunt their infidelities and usually avoid sticky extracurricular entanglements. If you love a Taurus, feed him.
