It's my cousin's birthday today.

Today is my cousin's birthday. We used to wear jeans a lot, all four of us. If I were to draw ourselves out, I, am the one, a Wiccan, would be the long hair girl with the hood. My own sister is the one wearing short pants, for she always like to wear shorts. The far left short-haired, and the far right one (cleopatra) are my two cousins, borned to my father's side. My Dad's two sister's daughters. All four of us girls are all married now. I am married to a Chinese, my sister, the one wearing shorts, married an African English Gentlemen, my two cousins, far left and far right, both married chinese men and the short-haired one has settled down in Johore while travelling working in Singapore. The other one ( far-right ) is currently working at an office in Puchong.

We were dynamic sisters and cousins and we were all in good terms with each other. We worked as a team. We all had the spirit in our lives. And before we settled down and have our own children, we say to ourselves, we will travel the world, as far as we can get, and roam the skies and enjoy to our heart's delight before we say goodbye and welcome the heartache of our lives. Thanks to our mothers!

Today is the cleopatra's birthday, so....arr...Happy Birthday, cousin sister! You are 43!

HOW TO PAY THE PRICE OF SUFFERING - Choose your suffering.

Be willing to pay the price for success. Commit to a worthwhile goal. If it's good for you, it's going to hurt. Let's dig into this a little more. So I won't cry.

One day, when my friend Todd and I were having lunch, he let me know the best piece of marital advice he ever received. He said, "Ling, it's up to you. Choose your suffering."
                    "Well, what the heck does that mean ," I wondered aloud. Thankfully Todd answered. "Choose your suffering. You know, everything has a price, and if you're willing to pay it, it's going to be tough, but you can do it. Just choose the suffering that's right for you, accept it, and then live with it."
                    "A-ha! A price for everything ! That's brilliant! Thanks Todd!" and I wrote down his little nugget, to think more about it one day. Choose your suffering. Pay the price for success! Commit to a worthwhile goal. If it's good for you, it's going to hurt. Let's dig and dealt with this before a blow.
                    Commitment : The Merriam - Webster dictionary defines commitment as " the state or an instance of being obligated or emotionally impelled." What does that really mean? I would say that making a commitment to something means you make a decision, and you stick to it, no matter how much it hurts, no matter what it costs, and you just stick to it.
                    This can't be too bad. Let's see, that requires accountability, either to yourself, your spouse, your boss, or whomever you share your goal or ideas with. That also requires integrity, to tell people when you're falling away from your commitment. You also have to be honest with yourself.
                    Lastly, that requires discipline. You have to be strong enough to hang in there, and do whatever it takes. Pay the price for success! Let me tell you what you get if you don't commit : You get something you don't want. You get something someone else chose for you.
                    You're more apt to get what you want, if you start by understanding there is a price to pay for this, and by realizing there's a price to pay for doing nothing. Everything, even nothing has a price. Are you willing to pay for nothing? It's motivation, it's not pressure......
                    Life is about taking chances - "Move out of your comfort zone. You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new." Self-improvement - Inspiration. I am inspired..........I'll do it.

40th Birthday Party Ideas......

Things your friend should experience before he turns 40!!!!!!......More importantly,for your big 40th birthday party, you should be able to take a deep breath and treat yourself to a real life-size,full throttle, champagne or Red Wine popping celebration, to start your new stage of life journey.

"Life also starts at 40", but I find it hard to believe that I'm actually 40! This is another phase in my life and it comes in with a natural stride. This is just like the TV show I've seen. You build a book with your life history included in it. This is a good one as my presentation are modest and pure. I proceed to introduce my peers to read.

A nice thing to do in hot weather is to have a party on the beach. You may need to pick a location where you are not likely to get told off. In the middle of winter, you could plan an indoor beach party where you wear Hawaiian shirts and spread sand on the floor.

Hey,it's Elaine's 40th birthday party and it's gonna be great!!!!
