"To laugh often and much... to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children . . . to leave the world a better place. . . & to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived...
This is to have succeeded."
Have been surfing the net for whatever and reading news online as the holidays actually make me feel "lazy" or at least the holidays give me an excuse to feel lazy. =)
But anyway for some serious thoughts, I will be posting here an excerpt, actually the last paragraph of the article published in Inquirer, Dec 24. The editorial talks about the global crisis we are facing but how we could actually make ourselves truly Christians. It was nicely written I had to blog it and share it. Happy New Year everyone.
The coming economic hard times should not stop us from giving gifts. Far from it. What we simply want to say is that when we stop giving from our surplus and start giving from our substance, that’s when the true spirit of Christmas comes unwrapped.
Remember the post I wrote about a book I read called Marley and Me? It's now a movie!!!
I learned about it the other day as I was at the bookstore where I bought my copy of that book and noticed that a in the cover of Marley and Me was the part that it is now a major motion picture starring Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston=)
I loved that book so much because I do have my own pet, with the same breed - a Labrador. And the craziness of "Marley" somewhat reminds me of my own dog's quirks. My pet's puppy pic is located at the sidebar of this blog.
I really am thrilled it's a movie so I logged in the net and surfed it. I found the trailer and oh boy, was I excited to see the scenes I read from the book! It's showing in the states this Christmas!
Oh I hope they show it here soon!!!
See the trailer below:
