~A.[.0.U.$.+.|[ L.@.d.y.l.2.[\].d~: 2009

It was a busy morning, about 8:30, when an elderly gentleman in his 80's arrived to have stitches removed from his thumb. He said he was in a hurry as he had an appointment at 9:00 am ..
I took his vital signs and had him take a seat, knowing it would be over an hour before someone would to able to see him. I saw him looking at his watch and decided, since I was not busy with another patient, I would evaluate his wound. On exam, it was well healed, so I talked to one of the doctors, got the needed supplies to remove his sutures and redress his wound.While taking care of his wound, I asked him if he had another doctor's appointment this morning, as he was in such a hurry.
The gentleman told me no, that he needed to go to the nursing home to eat breakfast with his wife. I inquired as to her health. He told me that she had been there for a while and that she was a victim of Alzheimer's Disease.
As we talked, I asked if she would be upset if he was a bit late. He replied that she no longer knew who he was, that she had not recognized him in five years now.
I was surprised, and asked him, 'And you still go every morning, even though she doesn't know who you are?' He smiled as he patted my hand and said,
'She doesn't know me, but I still know who she is.'
I had to hold back tears as he left, I had goose bumps on my arm, and thought,'That is the kind of love I want in my life.' True love is neither physical, nor romantic.
True love is an acceptance of all that is, has been, will be, and will not be.
With all the jokes and fun that are in e-mails, sometimes there is one that comes along that has an important message. This one I thought I could share with you.
The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the best of everything they have .

'Life isn' t about how to survive the storm,
but how to dance in the rain.'

. ColOrS oF liFe .

Color does have a physical effect on the human body. It can influence the pituitary gland, which helps regulate hormone production. Hormones can affect our moods, so it makes sense that color would, too. But it can also be used to change our moods.

Red is all about energy and vitality, but it can also indicate anger. And of course it's associated with sexuality as well. Pink, though, can provide a sense of being cared for; it's more about nurturing and maternal love.

Orange is stimulating, good for times when we just can't seem to get started with something. Its lighter version, peach, may be useful for exhaustion due to stress.

Yellow is good for mental activities like reasoning and analysis. It can promote self-confidence and is helpful in situations when you need to be more optimistic.

Green tends to make most people think of nature, since so much of the natural world is green. It's about connections - with nature, or with our fellow humans. It's also good for general stress, since it can help balance emotions.

Blue is soothing and relaxing. It can stimulate creativity. Light blue can denote quiet, and dark blue can be sedating. But too much dark blue can be depressing.

Purple is related to imagination, intuition, and insight. In some situations it can also be very peaceful.

White is definitely about peace. But it's also associated with purity, which makes it good for "cleansing" - which could mean purification, or maybe just clarification. * My Fav of all *

Black may make some people think of depression, but it doesn't have to. It's a very dramatic color; many artists wear nothing but black. It can denote mystery, something hidden - or maybe an introvert who's been around crowds too long could use it to "hide" from people. In this sense, it can be a very protecting color.

Gray is a common color for business suits, and in those instances it can indicate independence, self-control, and self-confidence. But some color specialists think it's also about ambiguity and indecision; after all, it isn't black, and it isn't white, either.

Brown is the color of earth, and be just as "grounding." It's good for introducing stability to an otherwise insecure situation. But too much of it can take stability to its extreme - stagnation.

- New Year Flood Flash -

floods brought the festive mood of the New Year to an early close for the thousands of displaced families in different areas in the Philippines.Over the weekend, residents of the southern Philippine cities of Cagayan de Oro, Gingoog, and Iligan in Northern Mindanao woke up to high waters invading their homes and neighborhoods. Heavy rains precipitated the massive floods in the low-lying areas in the three affected cities.
The heavy winds and cold weather developed into a tropical depression and was named “Auring,” the first storm to enter the country in 2009. At least 30,000 individuals were affected. More than 30 houses were swept away by the rampaging waters as creeks and rivers overflowed. A child was killed while 7 were reported missing. Floods also led to the evacuation of residents in some areas of Negros Oriental, Bohol and Samar in the Visayas and Zamboanga del Norte in Western Mindanao.
Rescue and relief operations are ongoing in the aftermath of the floods

The last i read the tropical storm killed 83 people and a dozen others are missing.As of Sunday afternoon, countless citizens in the capital remained on the roofs of their houses, where they had spent the night drenched and unable to come down because of the flood waters that had accumulated since the rain began falling Friday evening.
Thousands of families in the capital and in nearby towns and provinces moved out of their homes as early as Saturday afternoon. Many people died in a landslide in Rizal, a province adjacent to Metro Manila that was among the hardest hit. In Marikina City, a Manila suburb, several of those who did not evacuate their homes in a subdivision by the Marikina River were found dead on Sunday.

The storm “submerged up to 80 percent of the city, and covered areas that never experienced flooding before, stranding people on rooftops and bringing death and misery to rich and poor alike,” according to Greenpeace.

Somehow i can only pray may God help them all. Rest in peace to all those who have passed and to friends who have family there i hope they are all safe and will keep them in my prayers.

~ sUn + Beach + BiKini + bErcadI = <3 ~

It has been two weeks now since I came back from Krabi and I wish I was still there..*bummer* It was really a nice and chill trip. Being just few steps away from the beach and a boat ride away from the superb islands..what more can you ask for?? People may say I’m a beach bum and HELL YEA I AM!!Proudly said!

Like a normal excited girl I am, I had all my stuff pack and ready to go pretty much early from the departure date..lol! When the day came I was all ready to go and .The flight there took only about an hour and 15min,was ubberly excited to even shut my eyes even though I was really tired. Soon after I heard the pilot saying we are going to land in few minutes, doll up got my stuff all ready to get my ass down the plane..and yes IM IN KRABI!!whoooooooo~

Bought the cab ticket to the hotel and eventually the cab driver became the tour guide for the rest of the trip..lol!! Really a nice man even tho he don't speck much English, could really see him trying his best to explain every single thing. As this trip was a free and easy trip we didn't not have anything plan for the day. Got change to our beach wear and off we go!

1st destination RAILAY BAY!! the island was breath taking..

2nd day - Kayaking + Elephant Tracking + Emeral Pool + Hot Sping had a good work out kayaking..buli2 hilang di paya bakau *__* panic juga la kejap..sudala tangan sakit gila..KICK!!imagine from 8 am til 12.30 inder the sun in the open sea..but it was really a good adventure. I actually freak out when i was on the elephant because she was so so big and imagine you on it and she is actually walking up a hill!! rasa macam mau terjatuh pi belakang juga la..lol!She is such obedient elephant and also well train.NEXT stop was an amazing god's work of art! Its actually a natural pool created by nature and shockingly the was was not even cold. To end the day we went to this so called hot spring..its actually a watter fall but the water is hot.I just didn't want to get out after that..hehe

3rd day - PHUKET!!!!!!! Wheeeeeeeeeee~ it took like 2 hours drive from Krabi there and it was a wet day*bummer* didn't really get to walk much as it was pouring off and on.Red flag was seen everywhere along the beach and the tide was pretty rough.

4th day - PHI PHI ISLAND!! Phi Phi Ley / Phi Phi Don / Maya Bay

Phi Phi Ley - The island that was the backdrop for Leonardo DiCaprio's "The Beach" is one of the most beautiful and majestic beaches you will ever lay your eyes on.As you take a longtail boat over to Phi Phi Ley you may experience some rough waters depending on the day, but even if you do, it is well worth the trip. As you approach Phi Phi Ley you may be somewhat unimpressed. At first glance Phi Phi Ley is nothing special to look at. Then, you turn a bend and see a stunning beach. If you get their early enough before the beach gets filled with people you can see quickly why Phi Phi Ley is one of the most famous beaches in the world.

Phi Phi Don - The land which is called a land to stay.Its a non-volcanic island, made mostly of limestone. Accessible from Phuket, with all visitors arriving by boat, Ko Phi Phi Don has great beaches and popular diving and snorkeling spots. Much of the island is a protected marine reserve. A place you will for sure enjoy the view.

Even though the tide was little rough and it actually drizzle in some part of the island,that didn't stop any of us on the boat from jumping into the clear blur water. Boat was stop and park right in the middle of the sea,one by one you can see people jumping off the boat with their own style..going snorkeling and feeding the fishes..Looking at all their faces you fill the happiness and warm feeling they get just being there. No stress no jams no city just one with nature.

At the end of the day all you can see is all smiles.It was really a nice island trip and i will do it again without thinking twice.
