We've barely catch our breath from Christmas and now it's on to auld lang syne! Auld lang syne again? How time flies, we'll all say. But how true, isn't it?
Well...time to take stock...time for reflections...time for resolutions...by George, hopefully there's enough time for everything...ha ha ha...
Hope everyone had a great 2007 and will continue into 2008 and evermore!
We received this cute and lovely award from Chris, Abby & Rosie . Thank you so much! *Big hugs*. It's really hard to decide who to pass to as everyone has been such great friends. So this award goes to everyone again, and back to you too, Chris! *Group hugs*
I'm not good with words, so here are some songs to make up for it. Hope this will create more awareness and serve as reminder to all of us on how we can make this world a better place.
Feed the world...Let them know it's Christmas time again...
We are the ones who make a brighter day so let's start giving...
Lonely fear lights up the sky, Can't help but wonder why You're so far away. There, you had to take a stand In someone else's land, Life can be so strange. I wish we never had to choose, To either win or lose, That we could find a way... But I won't turn my back again, Your honor I'll defend So hurry home, and 'til then...
Chorus: Stand tall; Stand proud! Voices that care are crying out loud. And when you close your eyes tonight, Feel in your heart how our love burns bright.
I'm not here to justify the cause. Or to count up all the loss... That's all been done before. I just can't let you feel alone. When there's so much love at home We're sending out to you. All the courage that you've known The bravery you've shown, Clearly lights the way. We pray! To make the future bright, To make the wrong things right, Right or wrong, we're all praying you remain strong That's why we're all here and singing along.
We learned about a special blogger's project while visiting Chris' site, which we would like to help spread around too.
December 17th could make a vast difference in many lives - It's Bloggers Unite - Acts of Kindness Day!
Bloggers Unite is an initiative designed to harness the power of the blogosphere to make the world a better place. By challenging bloggers to blog about a particular social cause on a single day, a single voice can be joined with thousands of others to help make a real positive difference; from raising awareness for cancer, to an effort to better education systems or support 3rd world countries.
The Acts of Kindness theme aims at putting a human face on the bloggers responsible for so much good in the world. The goal is to expose their kindness and generosity as well as serve as an example to non-bloggers that volunteering for a charity, donating to a cause, or simply doing something kind for another person has a ripple effect around the world.
This award was passed on by Chris, Abby & Rosie , and we pass it on to everyone who visits our blog. Thanks to all who have come back again and again to visit; we appreciate each and every one of you. Spread the Christmas spirit from your site too!
The award says: "Life is like Hell without FRIENDS. It's ‘World Best Friend Week’. Send this to your best friends to let them know you appreciate them. Please take this award, and place it on your blog if you wish.
It's hard to list down who our best friends are, as everyone of you are special. Thank you all for being such great friends and so supportive, especially to new bloggers like us who still have so much to learn!
Yet, it's also hard not to name the ones that have been there from the beginning and constantly drop by tirelessly.
Another tag! I've been tagged by Abby and Rosie , to list 7 annoyances and link to them in the post, then list and link to 7 more bloggers to do the same. So, pass this on to 7 more bloggers and notify them by leaving a comment on their blog.
Happy's 7 annoyances:
1) Happy is annoyed by any movement or sound made by her next door neighbour (it's a mystery till today why she dislikes the guy so much)
2) Happy is annoyed by the sight of the camera.
3) Happy is annoyed by the mailman, newspaper boy, cleaner, gardener, garbage truck, and basically any strangers who trespass.
4) Happy is annoyed by children running around and making noises outside.
5) Happy is annoyed by LadyS.' phone rings.
6) Happy is annoyed by LadyS. going out without taking her along.
7) Happy is annoyed by LadyS. not sharing her meals at the table with her.
