Who Says Beauty Is Only Skin Deep?
A big thank you to a lovely soul, Michael Lai @ The Diary of a Retiree for making this post possible.
Rest and be thankful. ~ William Wordsworth
Today, my tired mind needed a good rest.
I am thankful to be able to find my ‘bench’ so that I keep on walking.
I do hope all lovely souls would be able to find yourself a comfortable bench,
And have a great rest over the wonderful weekend ahead!
Till then,
Cheers & TTFN~
This post is dedicated to all the lovely married or to-be-married couples out there who have been dedicating their lives in maintaining such a sacred relationship for the existence of a home sweet home.
A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.

Have a great Tuesday ahead!
Till then,
Cheers & TTFN~

One more inspiring quote about butterflies to share with you lovely souls :
The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough.
~ Rabindranath Tagore
If a butterfly has enough time to live in the moment, there shouldn’t be any excuse for us not to…
Have many great moments in your daily life, always!
Till then,
Cheers & TTFN

We have another powerful photo provided by a lovely soul, Ajaytao and do pardon me for my OCD kicking in by placing the following words from the lyrics of Madonna’s Take A Bow:
Blue Mask – Matt Marquez @ Ajaytao 2010
Loneliness is a complex and usually unpleasant emotional response to isolation.
Loneliness typically includes anxious feelings about a lack of connections or communications with other beings, both in the present and extending into the future.
As such, loneliness can be felt even when surrounded by other people.
Read More at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loneliness
There is a difference between being alone and being lonely.
Being alone is being away from others because you choose to.
Being lonely is when there is no one there for you.
~ Unknown
I love being alone at times, but do I ever feel lonely?
Why would I be feeling that when…
As according to Wikipedia, one of the primary functions of the family is to produce and reproduce persons, biologically and/or socially.
Therefore, I would like to thank
aristonorganic
A Lovely Lady Who Loves The Nature…
The Presents of Presence
A Strong Lady Who Sends Out Love In Her Unique Ways…
Ajaytao
An Inspiring Soul…
for this lovely award nomination.
As according to the creator of this award, Shaun@http://prayingforoneday.wordpress.com:
“This is an award for everyone who is part of the “Word Press Family” I started this award on the basis that the WordPress family has taken me in, and showed me love and a caring side only WordPress can.
The way people take a second to be nice, to answer a question and not make things a competition amazes me here. I know I have been given many awards, but I wanted to leave my own legacy on here by creating my own award, as many have done before.
This represents “Family” we never meet, but are there for us as family.
It is my honor to start this award”
It is thus our honour to have the following lovely souls joining us in this big family:
There are many other lovely souls that we would love list down, unfortunately I am currently down with a flu (first day…gosh!) and this is as far as my concentration could take me.
If you’ve managed to spot your name in the above lists, do feel free to spread this family love so that there won’t be any more lonely souls out there.
Last but not least, we would like to thank lovely Ajaytao, aristonorganic & Yvonne for including us into their WP family and once again to Ajaytao for making this post possible.
Till Then,
Cheers & TTFN~

Recently, I’ve found this new theme “Chalkboard” and fell in love with it immediately.
However, due to the amount of posts we already have in Be With Us and Share With Us, it is difficult to use the theme on them and so, I decided to use the theme on our initial blog - Clouds N Cups – which was originally meant for all the comic strips done by Baby Sis.
Ever since she has started working full time, it was being neglected.
I think it is a waste since it bears the actual name of our humble little online store and I won’t be able to move all my posts to this URL.
Now, I’ve finally found a reason to restore and revamp it using this lovely theme…meaning, I now have 3 blogs to maintain…lol…
Anyway, if you do have any extra time to spare, please do pay us a visit over there:
http://cloudsncups.wordpress.com/
Today happens to be Baby Sis’ last day of work and she will be taking a short break before starting work in May. I’ve requested her to come out with some comics and let’s see if she is able to grant my little request…LOL…
By the way, it seems that WordPress is not allowing us to ‘like’ the posts that we’ve read, so if you’ve been receiving lesser ‘likes’ from us lately, it doesn’t mean that we are not visiting.
~ WE ARE STILL READING ALL THOSE WONDERFUL POSTS AS PER USUAL ~
Have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend ahead~
Till then,
Cheers & TTFN~
THIS IS A CONFESSION POST
At times, when the things that you’ve said or done are being totally misunderstood by others?
Have you ever wonder?
Whose fault is this?
Yours or the one who misunderstood you?
Most of the time, we might be in denial because deep inside because we knew that was not what we’ve meant in the first place.
There’s a saying in Chinese:
凡人畏果,菩萨畏因
A human is afraid of the consequence only after performing an action,
whereas the Bodhisattva starts thinking of the consequence before performing an action.
Yesterday, I’ve made a remark about an incident when I could choose to zip my lips and continue whatever I was doing.
It wasn’t any bad remark and the one who heard it didn’t really mind since we’ve been in the same group for many years and knew each other well enough to know that it was only a joking remark.
However, a person from another group had misunderstood my remark as a rebuttal and told Lovable Mom about it.
I felt really bad
Not because that person has misunderstood me
BUT FOR THE FACT THAT
I WAS THE ONE
Who has caused all those unnecessary misunderstandings.
Perhaps I have not been doing enough self-reflection and thus gotten carried away at times.
This might be a sign telling me that I should start doing it more often in the future.
Found this picture at Ajaytao’s lovely blog and I am glad to be able to come out with some words of self-reminder in the following picture:
A Frame within a frame within a frame – Shi Jian Chiou
As always, I would like to thank Ajaytao for sharing with us so many wonderful and inspirational information.
It is when you lose sight of yourself, that you lose your way.
To keep your truth in sight you must keep yourself in sight and the world to you should be a mirror to reflect to you your image;
the world should be a mirror that you reflect upon.
~ C. JoyBell C.
As I’ve mentioned in the first line of this post, this is my confession in order to become a better person than yesterday.
If you’ve been reading until this line, thank you for shining your light on me via your lovely readership supports.
My Monday may be a little gloomy, but I am sure the rest of the day would be marvelous, just like all other Mondays.
So, may you lovely souls have a Marvelous Monday ahead too!
Till then,
Cheers & TTFN~

It is an honour to receive another “Lovely Blog Award” nomination and we would like to thank a lovely soul by the name of Shirlyn @ Cosy Bites for this lovely nomination.
If you are looking for food recipes to spice up your cooking life, be sure to check her lovely blog out. Her latest post “Honeydew Sago” made me drool all over the place… (do pardon me for this ill-manner)…for it is really hot in Singapore right now.
I decided to do this award addressing post because the following picture that I’ve came across in a lovely blog - Friendlypics – has given me some inspirations:
Hearts @ http://friendlypics.wordpress.com
Love is always in the air
Once a heart has the awareness to…
Venture into the brightness of hope and joy while
Exiling all darkness that once consumed it whole
We love to dedicate this to the lovely blog owner @ Friendlypics for making this post possible and at the same time, this post award nomination post is dedicated to the following lovely souls who have selflessly allowing us to use their pictures and words in some of our previous posts:
Only those who have learned the power of sincere and selfless contribution experience life’s deepest joy: true fulfillment.
~ Tony Robbins
A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL LOVELY SOULS OUT THERE FOR MAKING EVERYTHING POSSIBLE BECAUSE LOVE IS ALWAYS IN THE AIR!
Till then,
Cheers & TTFN~
