Winter is here to stay

We have been so lucky with the weather last year 2014 with really fantastic warm summer temperature and a "lagom" (moderate) warm autumn and early winter.

Now February which is normally the coldest month, is still pretty warm (around 0 to 4c) but I miss snow though. Winter without snow is like summer without sun, you know what I mean right?

Winter without snow is boring. I don't want to dress up as an Eskimo for nothing. That was why when I woke up last week on Friday, immediately my body was charged with some positive energy when I looked outside the window.
I was dancing like a little girl when I walked out from my apartment. I didn't have time to take photos at the entrance but I took a few quick shots while hubby was driving me to work. I really wished I could have the chance to visit a forest or a country side that day. I was that close to call my boss I want to take a day off, even though that day was my last working day. I should be feeling sad but the snow came into the rescue of my sad day.

I managed to store some great shots in my mobile picture gallery anyway. These are some of the photos that gave me joy that Friday.

A quick snap when I  looked outside from my bedroom that morning
A quick snap from the car, on my way to work. Moring sun at 9.45 a.m.

after three minutes.... at 9.48a.m.
Love love love this one! When I reached home at 3p.m. outside my apartment. Perfect lighting for catching this moment.

我 Ok, 你 OK 吗?

新的一年,新的感慨,有好多话要说却又不知从何说起。

今夜在恍惚的心情下,读到这段文章,让我感触不胜。在此和你们一起互相勉励。 加油!


过去我们有太多无法解决的烂账。也不知道受伤了几回。
我想,你或许要和过去那个受伤的自己说说话。
和过去的自己说:“你过去受伤的负面情绪是我来负责的。不是现在的他们来负责。”
和愤怒的自己说:“你不用对过去讨爱而讨不到的惨痛经验,而把全部烂账现在全都丢在这张饭桌上。你不用如此做的。你真的不需要这样的。”
和那个时候的自己说:“你会伤心、孤单、生气来博取别人的看见、别人的支持;那是过去我们生存的方式。我现在不要用过去的方式。我可以有更好的方式去面对。你来听我的,请你来听我的。”
和自己说:“不管怎样,你 OK 的。你比你自己想象中更有爱。你 OK 的。即使你不 OK,在我心里,你都是 OK的。”
和自己说:“那些讨爱失败的烂账记忆,我们可以和它们说再见了。”
和自己说:“他不是我的妈妈(爸爸),这世上,是的,我的妈妈(爸爸)的的确确遗弃我,可是不是他。他并没有说要遗弃我。是我内心对妈妈(爸爸)的愤怒、对妈妈(爸爸)的焦虑,全部都投了给他,而导致我如此没有安全感。对他、对我,都是不公平的。我们可以有更好的出路的。请你相信我。相信我。”
和自己说:“我确定要认回那个曾经做过乞丐而讨爱失败的你,我把你认回来。我要与你同行。我一定会与你同行。”
就和自己说说话。 你带着慈悲的心和自己说说话,那个过去的自己很愿意听的。
别被过去的烂账而牵绊着你那值得拥有美好的生命。我们都可以从烂账里解脱的,只要你多愿意和那个过去受伤的自己说说话。 也愿意去听过去的自己说说话。你发现这世上最美好的事情之一就是:和自己相爱。
祝福各位。祝福自己。
Peace within, Peace between, Peace among.
