No.97 - The Gift

If you could wish for one gift this Christmas, what would it be?

"Time is more precious than gold, more precious than diamonds, more precious than oil or any valuable treasures. It is time that we do not have enough of it; it is time that causes the war within our hearts, and so we must spend it wisely. Time cannot be packaged and ribboned and left under trees for Christmas morning. Time can't be given. But it can be shared."

From The Gift by Cecelia Ahern.


on the eve of New Year's eve, i finished reading this book.
a perfect tonic for this year-end season - time for reflection (perhaps) to know what's undone and need to be done in the coming year.
but most of all, salvage all the time we have and do whatever we can do (instead of regretting of what can't be done or what should have been done but not done)

before ending this post, just summing up that year 2011 is a beautiful year, well, every year IS a beautiful year - no year is the same like another year, just like no patient of the same disease will come exactly with the same presentation.

so, thanking God for the beautiful year and the years to come.

Happy New Year! (in advance)
