Rabbit say to itself, `Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late!'

`Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late!'

That was my mantra to meself until I chance upon my collections of Poems. One of it ...Slow Dance. Tis is one of my favourites.. sort of a reminder for me...

Slow Dance

by

David L. Weatherford

Have you ever watched kids on a merry-go-round

Or listened to the rain slapping on the ground?

Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight

Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

You better slow down

Don't dance so fast

Time is short

The music won't last

Do you run through each day on the fly

When you ask "How are you?" do you hear the reply?

When the day is done, do you lie in your bed

With the next hundred chores running through your head?

You'd better slow down

Don't dance so fast

Time is short

The music won't last

Ever told your child,We'll do it tomorrow

And in your haste, not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch, Let a good friendship die

'Cause you never had time to call and say "Hi"?

You'd better slow down

Don't dance so fast

Time is short

The music won't last

When you run so fast to get somewhere

You miss half the fun of getting there.

When you worry and hurry through your day,

It is like an unopened gift....Thrown away...

Life is not a race. Do take it slower

Hear the music, Before the song is over.

It is sad that I've forgotten about this poem, I used to love it so much, it was a reminder to me to slow down, coz I always want to hurry hurry hurry, I wanted to grow up so fast, want to be 30, flirty and successful. Ermm end up 30 +++, lonely, old and wrinkled now...

Can't imagine how the years have rushed by so fast, too fast for me to even remember what had happened those bygone years ....slow down... Once oh so young , and naive, wishing to be there... to conquer the world with all the spoils in it. Success! How elusive it can be.... in the pursuit of success, all other things seems trivial in nature, whence the real measure of success is actually being content and grateful and enjoy the blessings that we have in abundance around us.

Learn to love more , learn to appreciate more...

Soon out of the corporate world

.. Change is inevitable, life must go on, and the next step is, ywar.. My next step is to take a leap of faith and leave the corporate world, well for the moment anyway, dunno till when though, always have to try what we secretly wish for , ... Gonna go a trekking the jungle out there to my homeland, home sweet home, home where the heart is. Somehow I do feel deadly scared to venture out there without the sense of financial security backing me up ( ... getting my monthly moolah of course. ) ermmm.. hope I won't starve..'coz because I cannot shop as I like, buy whatever I like. Ermm , actually to shop within a budget is deathly difficult.,.. But as John Wayne said, and I quote ;

"Courage is being scared to death--and saddling up anyway"

So my count down to this wondrous new world is erm 21 days to go... yaiihhh! but then again to sacrifice my 9 to 5 daily-routine-stressful-tough-boring job and to gain familiar ground, familiar voices, familiar sounds... ermmm right now feel like calling the cab and head to KLIA ,and take the plane home....

Two days to Christmas

Today sitting at home facing my laptop , watching this Thai movie, sure they are having fun at home town .. Going to gym later on, do the belly dance, hope it makes me feel brighter and sunnier and more Chrismassy.

Drat The Service ..

Lunch today .. awful.. Just trying to get some decent meal for once, to escape the confines of the grey walls of the office. Seven of us seated, two of us got there first so naturally we ordered for the others hoping , the food will be on time . Feel so nice to be outa the office..chit-chat happily , ermm the food stil has not come.. tummy is hungwy already... We waited for half an hour , service was already bad and so slow.. but sokay since can chit-chat. and we keep reminding that there is one more order not sent to our table.. But then one of our friend did not get her order after all of us have finished our meal, we tried our best to attract the waiter/waitresses attention .. waving and calling hello, they really saw us but nobody came to our table argh!! and even avoided us, they were prwtty much trying to avoid many of the other customers.. I was trying my best to keep cool.. Aiya cannot stand it anymore!! 1 hour and 45 minutes still the food hasn't come.. Bloody hell! went to the counter and ask the staff about our order if its late we want to cancel as lunch time is over.. But they say the food is coming.. urmm don't see anything there on the counter , I asked again and nobody answered me.. aiyaks!! really got angry and told them off! Kerja so lembap!!! erm Manage to get discounts on our total food , but that really spoiled my day.. To keep cool in this hot and humid Malaysia wheather is really hard .. well never gonna be eating there ever again ...
