Colors Of The Wind Vanessa Williams
You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You learn things you never knew
You never knew

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue cored moon?
or ask the grinning bobcat why he grinned
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?
Can you paint with all the colours of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colours of the wind?

Come run the hidden pinetrails of the forest
Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once never wonder what they're worth

The rainstorm and the rivers are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle in a hoop that never ends

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue cored moon?
or let the eagle tell you where he's been
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?
Can you paint with all the colours of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colours of the wind?

How high does the sycamore grow
If you cut it down, then you'll never know

And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue cored moon
Or whether we are white or copper-skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains
We need to paint with all the colours of the wind
You can own the Earth and still
All you'll own is Earth until
You can paint with all the colors of the wind

i dont know how to start blogging. a minute ago, as i was signing in my head was so filled up with all the tings i wanna whine/ complain/ ramble about but when this page opened up i was like' ohmy how do i start blogging?'. funny, isnt it.

was looking through all my old emails and letters and all the stuff in my memory box and well, it brought back loads of memories. esp jus now, was blogsurfing other ppl's old entries and my emails, all those about redcross stuff really made me , yeah. everytime i do this kinda thing, its always like, wad happened? a person posted smth about how she is so excited to take up this certain proj and i can really feel it, from her words her tone in her blog the enthusiasim the i-dont-care-im-gonna-put-100%-of-myself-in-this. for a short moment too, i had that feeling and got reminded how it used to be an everyday kinda thing for me.

wad happened wad happened wad happened did it change only for me or is it the same for everyone esle too. so sick and tired of caring and trying to look enthusiastic. wadshappening. its not meant to be this way you know. i always thought it was hte best thign that ever happened to me and now, hurhs. wad happened to that voice inside me which convinced my whole being that wadever happened it is the thing im passionate about its the thing i wanna do its the thing i must commit myself to. wadever happens, just hang on. the rainbow after the rain. did the rainbow take so long to come out, i cant keep faith anymore? i dont even know wad im doing now. school-homework-tuition-revision-notes-things to do-things to bring. i seemed to be doing so much but raelly, nothing at all. i can talk the whole day yet nothign i truly wanna says comes out. i can smile and laugh but feel like a constipated toad inside. living day to day, no, wrong, its existing without living. i drag myself her and there but my real person is nowhere. caring about all the thigns which i really dont give a damn about. not having time to do everythign else. but there seemed nothign else that, i dont know, i really acre about either.

wad i really wanna do now. go somewhere reallyreally far away and sit on a mountain and watch a sunrise. or feel the clouds. or try grab the stars. or get drenched by rain. maybe, see the rainbow too.

youre holding on to me so tightly i cant breathe you dont know me at all stop assuming you know wad or how im thinking. YOU HAVE NO IDEA. stop screaming or you ll push me off hte edge. stop blinding yourself in wad you think is correct. let me go, give me some space, sont tell me to live upt o your expectations. cos im not her. i dont wanna be like her either.

Have you noticed the multitude of articles, books, and other information about dealing with stress that seem to be out there these days? It just struck me the other day, when I was paging through a magazine in a waiting room. While they seem to have good suggestions to offer, like getting some exercise, watching your diet, relaxation

You've probably heard the phrase about picking up on other people's "vibes." Well, that description is pretty accurate, because actually we are all composed of energy, and each of us emits our very own "force field." Likewise, thoughts and words are forms of energy as well. And when we suffer from stress, often it's because of the pressure of negative thoughts we may have or that we "pick up" from others.

Just like dirt that can accumulate on the body, this negative energy can accumulate as well. What I've found to be very helpful is to do what I call an "energy cleansing." This is a simple visualization that you can perform whenever you wish, but it's especially useful at the end of the day.

Sit comfortably and close your eyes. Imagine that a golden shower of light is descending on you, starting from the top of your head. Visualize it moving downwards through all the parts of your body, cleaning any dark spots that may be there. See it pushing this "sludge" of dark negative energy out of your body down through the soles of your feet into the ground. Keep visualizing this golden light doing its clearing action until there is only the light left in your body. Open your eyes and sit for a few minutes, enjoying the sense of calm and peace.

looking through all the uk trip photos. haha yes, it did bring back loads of memories. the sunsets, the rolling hills, willie the sheep farmer (rmb, you can survive w/o your mp3, com, hp, but not w/o food) , and all those blue sweaters. it did make me miss it a little, guess hte trip was really an eye-opener but it wasnt worth the things i missed out cos of the trip, or the trouble i got into aft that. still, the pictures on the cd was really cool(:

gosh realised that friendster's got this thing which shows you who 'grabbed your photos' AFTER i went ard grabbing everyones photos, copying and pasting here and there. OHNO. ahh, im very sorry to whoever who sees this and realised i grabbed their photos. 'grabbed' is such a funny word, sounds aggressive and haha well, we had our bonding party yesterday..if you call pouring water and drinking gross stuff and stoning and spilling nailpolish 'bonding'. and first time in my life yesterday, i took the last train home..but that attempt wasnt much of a success that train stopped in toapayoh and i had to cab back, reaching home at 1:30 am. then the first thing i said to my mum wheni went back was, why are you so late? (cos she reached home only a while before i did) before she could say that to me.

redcross party! to all sectwos, threes and ncos:

my chinese compo!















一座座褐色的山，虽然看起来不是很高，但却很大。放眼望过去，看到的，还是只有雄伟壮观的山。山与天空之间，是一层厚厚的白云。天空是由浅到深的。在最深的地方，它和海的颜色是一样的。
这是一张在所乘搭的飞机中飞过中东地区的莫一个山区时，我所拍下的一张照片。选择这张照片做为博客内容，原因有两个。

第一，它是我在高空中拍的少数照片中，最漂亮的一张。第二，它是令我感触很多的一张照片。
还记得自己在飞机上，不经意转过头看到窗外那一幕时，心头震了一下。我紧紧地盯着它，被它深深地吸引住，害怕一眨眼就看不见它了。突然想起“相机”这东西，连忙从座位底下的背包中把它挖起，拍下了这张照片。

重新在电脑上欣赏着张照片时，脑海里浮现出了些疑问：有人住在这些山区吗？他们的生活是怎么样的？如果能到那儿看一下，感觉会和现在看照片一样，被它那神秘所吸引吗？



它和我其他的照片不一样，不是在陆地上拍的，而是一张在高空中拍地球的画面。平常在陆地上，我很喜欢拍些天空的照片。不管是下雨前的乌云，还是神奇的日出、日落，都会莫名其妙地使我感动。换换新的角度，在飞机上往下拍，拍出天空中所看到的地球，在感动之余还有一些的陌生与惶恐。看到自己从未亲眼目睹过的壮观景观，陌生得使我害怕；想到人在地球中的渺小，那让我感到有些不安。



从小生活在城市里的我，整天被高楼大厦所包围着，天真的以为人类是地球的主人；以为在地球上，我们是最厉害的。看到了这景象，我认识到了，自己只是地球中连最小的一个点也作不到的一个人。还记得小时候，我总是认为自己就是地球的中心，全世界是绕着我一个人转的。现在想起来，真是愚蠢呀！等到千万年以后，我们都不再了，可这些已存在了万年的山，还是会依然在那里吧。



我想，每一个人基于想法与精炼的不同，看同样一张照片，体会一定会不一样。你看了我的这张照片，又有怎么样不同的感触呢？
