All Things Wise And Beautiful…(3)
Happy Monday to all lovely souls out there!
It has been a while since our last post(s) in both of our blogs.
No worries, I am still around to blog and sell.
However, if you’ve been visiting our humble blogs and online shop, you may notice that there isn’t any much blog updating or new product listings during the past few weeks.
This is mainly due to my recent relapse and thus I was not able to do much but to rest.
I am not sure how long it will take for the pain to go away, but as long as I am able to sit up straight (like now), I will continue with my reading, blogging and selling.
Thank you so much for being with us despite all the slow update.
❤ Muahk!!! ❤
Today, instead of colourful flowers, let’s go green by sharing 10 cactus photos from Lovable Mum’s Garden by the Bay trip in Year 2013.
Be careless in your dress if you must, but keep a tidy soul.

Before ending this post, here’s another lovely old song to share with you lovely souls out there.
Have a wonderful day ahead always!

We would like to take this opportunity to make a request to all lovely souls out there to help casting a vote for this animal shelter to win a grant so that they are able to find a new home for those animals in need.

All Things Wise and Beautiful…(1)
In this post and the next three posts, we will be sharing some photos (together with some beautiful and enlightening poems) taken during Lovable Mum’s visit to the Garden By The Bay in 2013.
Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything beautiful,
for beauty is God’s handwriting.

Choose Your Reviewer Wisely…
Mr. Kerby’s sweet, sweet owner has bought me this cute stuff toy puppy, which I’ve named him Kerby Junior, from Thailand.
Let’s see what are his opinions on the custom made bracelet and necklace set that I’ve been struggling for the past two months:
A man must be
Big enough to admit his mistakes
Smart enough to profit from them
And strong enough to correct them
~ John C. Maxwell
In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves.
The process never ends until we die.
And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.
~ Eleanor Roosevelt
Okay, okay…okay…the choice of reviewer I’ve made for this is ultimately my own responsibility. Nevertheless, let us see what conclusion K.J has for us.
Hmm…that’s really not THE conclusion I am looking for…. 😦
I WANT MR. KERBY BACK!!!!!!!!!!!
I think and think for months and years.
Ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false.
The hundredth time I am right.
~ Albert Einstein
Have a wonderful day ahead, always!
Till then,
Cheers & TTFN~ 😀
It’s All About Staying Focus…
Mr. Kerby is back to stay with us for 1 week because apparently his owner is already well enough to take a short vacation with her daughter and so Kerby will have his vacation with us for 1 entire week…ヽ(´▽`)/ YAY ヽ(´▽`)/
Courage means to keep working a relationship,
to continue seeking solutions to difficult problems,
and to stay focused during stressful periods.
~ Denis Waitley
Stay focused, go after your dreams and keep moving toward your goals.
~ LL Cool J
I always want to stay focused on who I am, even as I’m discovering who I am.
~ Alicia Keys
Have fun reading this post and do remember to stay focus!
Till then,

Goodbye Mr. Kerby, Hello Mr. Tree(s)!!
As some of you lovely souls have already knew, Mr. Kerby has finally gone back to his owner after staying with us for the past six months.
Already missing him but what matters most is that he is now happily sleeping in his own bed and playing with all his ten toys at home.
No more Kerby’s photos…so what will I be posting today?
Have you lovely souls already guessed it?
Aww…so lovely and clever too!!
Two weeks ago, I’ve gotten a chance to accompany Lovable Mom to her usual flower shopping since her friend, who usually drives her to the flower wholesale center had something on during that day.
It was my first visit there and there were a lot of walking to do especially during the return trip if you aren’t driving and we had to walk for about 20 minutes while carrying two bunches of flowers (if you are familiar with flower arranging, you ought to know that flowers aren’t really as light as we think they are) before reaching the bus stop.
When we finally reached the bus stop, while I was busy catching my breath, something caught my attention.
Hello Mr. Tree(s)!!
I spotted some beautiful trees and with my left hand holding two bunches of flowers (ignoring the are-you-trying-to-damage-my-flowers glare from Lovable Mom), I quickly took the following photos with my trying-to-stay-steady right hand and mobile phone so that I can share these beauties with you lovely souls out there:
Simply love the artistic and elegant form of this lovely tree…
Never cut a tree down in the wintertime.
Never make a negative decision in the low time.
Never make your most important decisions when you are in your worst moods.
Wait.
Be patient.
The storm will pass.
The spring will come.
Robert H. Schuller
This looks like an elegant lady standing in the middle of nowhere…LOL…
A tree is known by its fruit; a man by his deeds.
A good deed is never lost;
He who sows courtesy reaps friendship,
And he who plants kindness gathers love.
Saint Basil
Now…this kinda reminded me of a Teletubby?
I do hope all you lovely souls are enjoying our three Mr. Tree as much as I did and still do.
Have a wonderful day ahead, always!
Till then,
Cheers & TTFN~ 😀
Kerby’s Prayer Before Dinner…
Kerby has been very picky with his food and Lovable Mom is having a hard time planning his meals, especially dinner.
KERBY’S P.O.V OF HIS FOOD
Good Food = Whatever we’re having on our dining table…
Healthy Food = Whatever he is having inside his bowl…
One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.
~ Virginia Woolf, A Room of One’s Own
To all lovely souls out there reading this post…
Bon Appétit
Till then,
Cheers & TTFN~ 
Feeling Good?
You get onstage and make other people feel happy.
Make them feel good.
~ Keith Richards
