“People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, 

and that’s what everyone wants. 

But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you 

everything that is holding you back, 

the person who brings you to your own attention 

so you can change your life. “

Elizabeth Gilbert’s Eat, Pray, Love:

I've been wishing on a star but I could never have imagined
I would land just where you are after all this lonesome traveling
Took one look in your eye, reach out to hold your hand
This is when I realized that I could never understand
Do you want to be my one and only love?
Do you want to be my one and only love?
So you wanna be my friend, so you wanna be my lover
With you I do confess I can't be one without the other
That was hard for me to say, I hope I said it right
Which ever, come what may, you see I need to know tonight
Do you want to be my one and only love?
Do you want to be my one and only love?
Do you want to play these cards, do you want to lay them down?
DO you want to run away or do you want o stick around?
Do you want to be my one and only love?
Do you want to be my one and only love? 

after the rain

Know what's nice after a night of heavy rain?....

the morning dews

the smell fresh morning

the stillness of time  like that of the snail on it's shell

an unexpected visit of a buzzing bee & the snail on it's comfort zone

the humming birds that makes beautiful melodies unto my ears

Those colors that calms you...

I do believe their is always beauty after every rain. 

I was a spectator of that aftermath and It was truly priceless.

And it's magic.. :-) 

face off

Our own version....  

 My very talented brother Lucent's mask creations...

Happy Halloween!!!:-D

lighten up

a ray of colors

my earth angel Dad

Today so many many years ago in The Netherlands... a wonderful woman Madam Bella Hendriksen welcomes to the world an angel...

They named him Sebastian Arnold Paul Joseph 

He is one amazing man with a golden heart. 
He sees life everyday with so much sunshine & positivity.
He is full of wisdom to share.
He has his word of honor. 
He is a good family man.
He is a very true friend... and i am a witness of that wonderful long friendship 
he shared with my late Papa. 
He inspires me a lot.

And I am so much blessed to have him as my godfather..my earth angel..my best friend. 

Zorg goed voor jezelf... (take care of yourself).. 

that's what he always says to everyone. And that is one most special Dutch phrase I learn from Dad. :-)

Gellukige Verjaardag Dad Bas... Happy Happy Birthday

You make a big difference to so many peoples lives. May you continue to shine.

Today, I am so glad as well to know that my gift for him through the good old mail came just in time for his Birthday.. :-) 

a bit of sunshine

On a quite Sunday afternoon,
and just a little bit of sunshine through my window...

to shimmer at these beauties... brings smile to my day.
Happy weekend! :-)

i shall dance

"Courage does not always roar... sometimes, 

it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,

"I will try again tomorrow"- anonymous

10 10 10 = 30

the art of waiting

"There is always someone missing whose presence is essential, 

some preordained time that has not yet arrived,

some inexplicable sequence of events that must unfold. 

The waiting is an integral part of the experience of being here.."

take time

" T I M E is your most precious gift because you only have a set amount of it. You can make more money, but you can't make more time.

When you give someone your time, you are giving them a portion of your life that you'll never get back.

Your time is your life. That is why the greatest gift you can give someone is your time." - Rick Warren

The best expression of LOVE is TIME....

Relationships take time and effort, and the best way to spell love is "T -I-M-E" 

The essence of love is not what we think or do or provide for others, but how much we give of ourselves...


Excerpts from the book Purpose Driven life- by Rick Warren
