Ackianne Margarette's Birthday at Mc Donalds

23^rd of January 2011…The third time that I wasn’t able to enjoy the birthday celebration of my daughter Ackianne Margarette M. Derla. The more years it adds to my daughter age is the more years that I felt desire to be with her always. It’s my daughter 3^rd Birthday and another year of fruitful and blessing to my daughter’s health.

Some other says, my daughter looks is got from me but some other says it is exactly the same with my wife appearance. No matter how she guise with people around her, I am very thankful that my daughter is so healthy and in fact she’s quite big & chubby at her age and undergone already some sort of diet. It was surprising at her age right now that she started doing that things, as doctor said it is better to follow the recommended BMI at her age but as for me I’d like to have my daughter as average body that she can have so at least my wife can able to dress-up my daughter as doll as what my wife is doing always.

Perhaps, it is enough to discuss my daughter’s weight heheheh. I just wanted to share to everyone the birthday of my daughter. Wishing her continues good health and May she grows up as respected person and a God-fearing child.

To you my child, Happy Birthday!!! I knew you’re such a wonderful kid and most people admired you for being cute and enthusiastic in all manners. That’s the things that I am always praying that you stay witty and pretty. Papa loves you so much and I want you to know that I love you…

Pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. —Proverbs 16:18

Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall. —1 Corinthians 10:12

It has become so commonplace to hear of the misconduct of a respected public figure that even though we may be deeply disappointed, we are hardly surprised. But how should we respond to the news of a moral failure, whether by a prominent person or a friend? We might begin by looking at ourselves. A century ago, Oswald Chambers told his students at the Bible Training College in London, “Always remain alert to the fact that where one man has gone back is exactly where anyone may go back . . . . Unguarded strength is double weakness.”

Chambers’ words echo Paul’s warning to be aware of our own vulnerability when we see the sins of others. After reviewing the disobedience of the Israelites in the wilderness (1 Cor. 10:1-5), Paul urged his readers to learn from those sins so they wouldn’t repeat them (vv.6-11). He focused not on past failings but on present pride when he wrote, “Let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall” (v.12).

The head shaken in reproach is a common response to public sin. More helpful is the head that nods, “Yes, I am capable of that,” then bows in prayer for the one who has fallen and the one who thinks he stands.

Blessed Savior, make me humble,
Take away my sinful pride;
In myself I’m sure to stumble,
Help me stay close by Your side. —D. De Haan

Pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. —Proverbs 16:18

A Tribute to TAYSEER FATEEL...

January 9, 2011, Sunday and 2^nd day of the week, I used to come early for work as to comply with all the things I need to complete for SAP Implementation project in SPCo. I was happy but quiet this morning because in my mind, I have come this far in regards with the preparations I have done for the arrival of my family to be with me here in Kingdom. Only last night when I finally settled my contract in the real estate confirming that I will get their flat no. 10 where I paid six months’ rent plus other miscellaneous fees. Yesterday afternoon also, after work (4PM), I'm in a rush for 5 minutes changing my clothes then immediately went out in Big World to buy all the cleaning materials.  I had with my friend with me last night who helped me to clean all the rooms and we finished around 9:30PM. I went home and relax for 30 minutes then sleep with a smile. But before I finally slept, there is something bothering me to think about, I don’t know why? But it keeps me to think what it is…

I haven’t thinked and expected that the mere fact that I’m happy for one thing this morning that every single thing I had completed little so far has equivalent feeling of sorrow and sadness when I knew what had happened to my previous boss, Tayseer. When I learned from Gublan that Tayseer had died yesterday in a car accident that answers my agitations. “I knew it” and that’s the reason why I kept on thinking for something.  The moment I heard and knew the news, my body was shaking, stocked-up for any movement that I wanted to talk and scream. It seems my heart stop for pumping and thinking for what was happened to my mentor, my supervisor, my superintendent and my manager in Planning.

He did lots of things to me, when I worked with him from 2003 up to 2007, almost 4 years of pressure from the work we received that time but it is worth it because we still spend sometimes also to laugh and learned the value of life. I will not forget all the things he taught me, advices and learning’s to improve myself and my career. There is a time that we used to have jokes from people that surrounds us about getting into wrong directions but only one thing you will hear from him “ I am straight person”…” “Straight forward to the right ways”. It was last month and the last time we had a chat about SAP as well as other things about Planning. He has lots of plans not only for his family but as well as for the people in Maintenance Dept. that he wanted to help in any way he can.

For you my Planning Manager, you have built me on where I am right now and to countless people you have extended your help also. For that reason, people admired you a lot for being a good person and an excellent friend.  Thank You!!!

This is a Tribute to you, to a wonderful man and I hope people will read this that may find you a real and genuine person and having a BIG heart for people. I am crying when I wrote this post but the tears I have right now are the tears for saying…thank you for everything, thank you for all the things you have done for your people. Sometimes I remember, you used to say “There’s a lot of work and responsibilities in my shoulder now”, but now, May you Rest in Peace! All your burdens are gone now!

I will pray to ALLAH that may your family overcome the grief and solitude that they are experiencing right now. We, my family and my co-S-Chem friends are extending our warmth sympathy and deepest condolences. May ALLAH guide you where ever you are…, I will cherish all the moments we’ve shared and the moments when we worked together not only as a superior and subordinate relationship but most importantly as a FRIEND. I will miss you, Good Bye my Mentor!

THE YEAR OF THE RABBIT, 2011

According to the Chinese Zodiac, the Year of 2011 is the Year of the Rabbit, which begins on February 3, 2011 and ends on January 22, 2012.  The Rabbit is the fourth sign of the Chinese Zodiac, which consists of 12 animal’s signs.  The Rabbit is a lucky sign.  Rabbits are private individuals and a bit introverted.  People born in the Year of the Rabbit are reasonably friendly individuals who enjoy the company of a group of good friends.  They are good teachers, counselors and communicators, but also need their own space.

According to Chinese tradition, the Rabbit brings a year in which you can catch your breath and calm your nerves.  It is a time for negotiation.  Don't try to force issues, because if you do you will ultimately fail.  To gain the greatest benefits from this time, focus on home, family, security, diplomacy, and your relationships with women and children.   Make it a goal to create a safe, peaceful lifestyle, so you will be able to calmly deal with any problem that may arise.

Famous Rabbit People:  Angelina Jolie, Angelica Huston, Drew Barrymore, Edith Piaf, Fanny Brice, Helen Hunt, Jane Seymour, Joan Crawford, Kate Winslet, Natasha Richardson, and Tina Turner
