Being left-handed... gives me a razor-thin view of what it's like to be a minority. As a left-hander, I'm discriminated against all the time. Not for serious things: I am not denied housing, medical care, a job, a seat on the bus. But I experience anti-lefty bias in the form of school desks that are unusable, carrot peelers that are useless, power tools (such as skill saws) that are dangerous or even life-threatening, pens that smear and make my writing illegible, computer mice that cause hand cramps.
Language certainly discriminates against the left-hander: A "left-handed compliment" is not something you want to hear; the word for "left" in French is gauche, and in Latin it's sinister; in contrast, from the French word for "right," droit, we get the English word adroit, and Latin for right is dexter (from which we get such words as dexterous). Ambidextrous means literally "both right."
Am I "in my right mind"? Current research can't prove whether or not lefties really do tend towards right-brain dominance. Would right-sphere specialization explain why I think of myself as creative? I would swear being left-handed helps my Tetris scores (thanks to all that visualization of abstract geometric shapes, which we lefties are famous for).
Who would I be if I was right-handed? Not the same person. Left-handedness is part of my identity, my self. I would sooner cut off my right arm than be converted to right-handedness; as strong a statement as that is, left-handedness is so integral a part of me that I could not imagine living otherwise. Thank God my mom did not force me to write with my right hand when I was a child!
And is it only simple coincidence that I am politically left-winged as well as so strongly left-handed? (Probably.)
A Final Observation.
People are also left-footed and right-footed. Usually one eye is stronger than the other, so people can be left-eyed and right-eyed. And even stranger: pay close attention to your friends' faces. Really stare at them, watch closely when their lips curve into smiles. You'll see that people are almost always strongly left-faced or right-faced. One side is usually much more expressive than the other. In fact, if you mirror the two sides of a person's face to create a left-composite and a right-composite, you'll find yourself looking at two completely different people.

Have you ever wondered...?
Have you ever wondered which hurts the most? Saying something and wishing you hadn't? Or saying nothing and wishing you had? I guess the most important things are the hardest things to say. Do not be afraid to tell someone you love them. If you do, they might just break your heart...if you don't, you might just break theirs. Have you ever decided not to become a couple because you were so afraid of losing what you already had with that person? Your heart decides whom it likes and whom it doesn't. You can't tell your heart what to do. It does it on its own...when you least suspect it or even when you don't want it to. Have you ever wanted to love someone with everything you had but that other person was too afraid to let you? Too many of us stay walled up because we are too afraid to care too much...for fear that the other person does not care as much or even cared at all. Have you ever denied your feelings for someone because your fear of rejection was too hard to handle? We tell lies when we are afraid; afraid of what we don't know, afraid of what others will think, afraid of what will be found out about us. But every time we tell a lie, the thing we fear grows stronger. Life is all about risks and it requires you to jump. Do not be a person who has to look back and wonder what they would have done or could have had. *What would you do if every time you fell in love, you had to say good-bye? *What would you do if every time you wanted someone they would never be there? *What would you do if your best friend died tomorrow and you never got to tell them how you felt? (even if it is that you don't care anymore...) *What would you do if you loved someone more than ever and you couldn't have them? *What would you do if you never got the chance to say I am friends with all of my family and they know I love them? *People live, but people die. ALL I want to tell you that you are a friend. If you died tomorrow, you would be in my heart! Would I be in yours? Do you care about me as much as I care about you? We might be best friends one year, pretty good friends the next year, don't talk that often the next, don't want to talk at all the year after that. So, I just wanted to say, even if I never talk to you again in my life, you are special to me and you have made a difference in my life, look up to you, respect you and truly cherish you. No matter how often you talk or how close you are, tell it to them if you consider them as friend. Let old friends know you haven't forgotten them and tell new friends you never will. Remember, everyone needs a friend, someday you might feel like you have NO FRIENDS at all, just remember this passage and take comfort in knowing somebody out there cares about you and always will...I LOVE YOU!...Tell it to all the friends that you've lost...and to all the friends you've lost touch with...just to let them know that you care...
Stay well and cool.

He IS one of us...
He hailed a cab as usual, to go to work. He was never ever late for work regardless that he was just an administrative assistant clerk. He delivers his given tasks, however simple they were; with great sense of responsibility and sincerity. His fellow collegues were very fond of him; be it the managing director or the tea lady. They would often do something nice for him, however tiny the gesture was just to let him know, he IS one of us...
Although not owning any tranpostation of his own, it was never a problem for him to visit anywhere he wished; malls, cinemas, libraries, bookstores, beaches, gatherings, pubs (where he would be excitedly cheering along any soccer team that were competing for that particular night) and he never missed going to his local chruch on Sundays. It was the same in church. A true devotee, he would even taped each sermon preached by the Pastor or Reverend during that particular week. After service(s), he would gladly join the others for lunch before heading back to the church for choir practices, band practices in which he plays the keyboard. One would easily tell that he would pass as a mediocre member but hey, no one ever complained or looked down on his so-called 'mediocre' abilities. The other members who excelled in either 'field(s)' would willingly guide him whenever neccesary. After practice(s), he would stay back to help clean up and then spend another couple of hours learning to play the piano. He was totally dedicated in everything that he sets his heart to and always gave his best. His earned the respect of his fellow peers and friends with utmost justification. After all, he IS one of us...
We could all learn a thing or two from him; being such a dedicated, hardworking and righteous person that he was, it certainly proved that Anything Is Possible when you set your heart to it. His family, relatives, friends loved him simply because he is who he is. He is as much capable as the person next to him because he IS one of us..........not because of the fact that he was born, handicapped. Oh, did I mentioned that he was blind?

The Next Time...Think About It...
I was driving yesterday and heard this piece of community message from the radio...and it made me ponder further...
Ever felt that most of us (even the most civilized of human species) often get angry or easily provoked even if it's over some minor issues?
Well, being angry is not only hazardous to your health, it also reflects your vulnerability. Anger is your nemesis. The only way to fend it off is to think about the consequences that may come out of it. Nothing positive ever happens when you are angry. Most importantly, it will only hurt others' feelings with something that you might unintentionally say which you would most definitely regret later. Tiny or even unnecessary issues could be blown so out of proportion that it may be beyond repair, causing you to have even more nemesisses, or worst still, even losing people that really meant a lot to you. As the old saying goes: "It is always better to have more friends than enemies!"...On top of that, it is no good for your heart and blood pressure too!
So the next time you feel the degree of your anger rising; count to three, take two steps back and inhale one hefty long breath. Smile, do not retaliate. A person cannot be further aggravated when you given them a nice, sweet smile instead of a nasty, bitter retort. You might be surprised at just how vast a difference it would result and how much better you would feel.
And then walk away with your head held up high; the integrity, respect and confidence that you own, still very much intact in your 'righteous-self'...
The next time, think about it first before allowing anger to take control of you...
Peace Out.
Stay well and cool.

My First ever 'attempted' Poem...
Thought I would share this with all of you...
I had to make a 'toast/speech' during the event of my little brother's wedding dinner which took place in December 2007. Was not at all afraid of 'public speaking' but was more concerned about what in the world I would want to say, so that it would not embarrass the newlyweds and my parents plus, giving friends and relatives alike; a wee 'insight' of the entire account from their courtship which subsequently led to the wedding. Talk about pressure especially these kind(s) ie; mushy, fluffy stuffs...*shudders*. So I decided on reading them a poem thus, leading me to attempt my first ever self-written poem (which I miraculously wrote within 10 minutes while sitting on my toilet bowl! hahaha!)...
Okay, on with the poem and it reads a little something like this:
Dearest Mr. & Mrs. Wayne n’ Sabrina Lim,
THE DAY WHEN YOU FIRST BOTH MET,
NEITHER THOUGHT ONE DAY YOU’LL WED,
AS TIME PASSES BY,
YOU BOTH CLEARLY KNOW WHY,
THO’ AT TIMES YOU FIGHT AND YELL,
SOMEHOW IT ALWAYS ENDED BEING ALL GOOD AND WELL,
TIL’ THIS VERY DAY,I’M PROUD AND HONOURED TO SAY,MY LIL’ BROTHER’S FINALLY FOUND A LOVELY WIFE, DAUGHTER AND SISTER-IN-LAW,
ONE GREAT GAL THAT WE’D ALL HAPPILY RELATE TO WITHOUT CAUSING AN UPROAR,
WISHING THE BOTH OF YOU TRUE HAPINESS,
ALONG WITH SINCERE LOVE AND TENDERNESS,
SO, CONGRATULATIONS TO MY DEAREST NEWLYWEDS,
HERE’S TO STAYING TOGETHER FOREVER AT YOUR VERY LOVING BEST!
WITH ALL MY SISTERLY LOVE,
TONI ; )
*blushes*...please let me know what you think?...oh and by the way, my sister-in-law loved it. She had it enlarged, framed and its now proudly hanged on their bedroom wall. Hahaha, so much for a 10-minute bathroom 'vibe'...Nah, I am 'relieved' and thankful that they liked it...trust me ; )
Stay well and cool.

So, Who's Having The Last Laugh, huh? ...
...after finally being able to belt out some 'decent' tunes from my tiny, almost 'ukelele-sized' guitar, I felt confident enough to purchase a 'real' one.
Making my way into the guitar shop, a sale's assistant instantly came up to my assistance before I had even taken more than ten steps. (business is really bad these days...lol)
Not that he was not helpful but I felt a tad iritated by his never-ending 'hard sell' technique; pushing and shoving all kinds of guitars into my face before I could even browse the entire shop.
In my opinion, purchasing a guitar is totally different from purchasing erm...say daily essential groceries ie; eggs, soy milk, fruits, the greens, heck even a pack of cigarettes.
You NEED to Feel the instrument and strangely enough, 'it' also needs to feel you. There has to be a mutual connection between 'us' simply because 'we' would be partners and spend lots of time together; just like your spouse, girlfriend, boyfriend, mistress, toyboy etc..lol
Seriously...despite the 'persistant' sale's assistant tailing my every move, I suddenly found myself drawn to one particular guitar. It's not awesomely outstanding in regards to its outlook.
Like I've mentioned, it's the instant connection between 'us' and call me insane but I swear I could hear 'it' greeting me with a warm "Please Buy Me" look as well.
The minute I held 'It', there was this strange yet pleasant feeling BUT there's just one tiny problem: 'It' was rather huge for me. I could see from the back of my head that the sale's assistant was trying his best to stifle his laughter as he watched me struggle with the 'distance' of each fret, my stumpy fingers trying to reach each note while I try 'It' out.
Despite 'Its' size, I decided to purchase it, even more so when the 'helpful' sale's assistant enquired (several times!) if I was Really Sure about 'It'.
So I brought my new 'partner' home, gave 'It' a warm welcome, a tour of the house and introduce 'It' to my family before giving 'It' a nice, thorough 'spa treat'; polishing, 'massaging', fine-tuning to the perfect pitch and at the same time, engaging in a talk.
I was initially hesitant to use it after the 'unpleasant silent taunt' from the shop's assistant but I decided to give 'It' another try and My Good Lord, 'we' managed to present the most satisfying melody I have heard by far (based on my "preschool-beginners'-level", of course).
'Our' collaboration of rendering "Romance d' Amour" was so fluid, cozy and so at ease, it really amazed me with a fulfilled sense of accomplishment; as my stumpy fingers seemed to have been replaced by beautiful lithe ones, lovingly running through the strings, almost like caressing 'It'.
After a night of making sweet music together, enjoying each other's company, the two of 'Us' finally fell asleep.
'We' made a mutual desicion to visit the guitar shop again just to show the 'taunting salesman' how much 'We' love each other before exiting the premise, having the last laugh by 'Ourselves'...
Have a great day, guys.

Do Your Part...Jog To The Gym
The Low Carbon Diet...We often choose our gyms mainly based on the proximity ti the place we work or live. If your gym is a short hop away, consider jogging over. After a few months, you might not even need to go to the gym altogether!!
Global Warming. We Did it. We Can Undo it.
** Shed 1.5kg of CO2 for every 5km when you do not drive.
Being said, I am still not well enough to 'jog' to my gym (which ironically is just several metres away from my bedroom... )...Damn those antibiotics!Okay, one more day to go...you can do it!
Stay well and cool guys!

How Do You Deal With ’CHANGE’?
Change happens whether you like it or not and usually you cannot control it. The great news is, it is how you deal with change that makes all the difference, not change itself.
When change occurs, there is a new reality which is neither good nor bad. Whether it is a political environment or a system adopted at your work place, change is simply a new condition. While you cannot control change, how you feel and respond to it, is entirely up to you. You can decide to see a;; the possible opportunities it opens, focus on the good that can come of it and leap forward.
Not accepting change is at the core spiritually destructive. It is also arrogant as it goes against what the CREATOR has brought. You may not like the change but you must accept it, for it is here and now.You can choose to be grateful and accept it with grace. If you resist change outwardly, you create tensions and conflicts. In an organization, it might even cause you your job.
More commonly, people will appear to follow the new procedures or methods, but they will do so 'grudgingly'. They complain amongst themselves, long for the old ways and tell themselves how much better it was. They may even knowingly or unknowingly 'sabotage' new systems in place.
When change is not fully embraced, underlying resentments bring about negative energy thus, holding everyone else back.
One famous quote by Guru Nanak: "Conquer your mind and you conquer the world."
So, try and train yourself to see opprtunities. Accept and flow with change.
Erm...I am not making any sense and I bore the hell out of you, right? Sorry, I'll stop now. Just my two cents for today.
Stay well and cool, guys.

Wohoo, 3rd-Entry ...
Hi everyone,
Feeling better now. In fact, I just came home from Sunday Worship. Not to sound like a preacher but today's sermon was somehow 'rejuvenating' for me.
It's about how to revive a newly formed church and stay revived. I can't help but think that it's somehow related to 'life' itself...obviously, duh?
Whenever one feels really down or they had lost everything they'd worked so hard for in a matter of mere minutes, do not give up easily!
Regardless of what religion you belong to, the facts and basics are the same.
Speak to The Lord, have HIM reinforced the Holy Spirit in you and pray.
You might not instantly see 'results' but GOD has HIS way to help all HIS beloved children.
This is a true. There are countless testiments being shared by those who were lucky or shall I say, blessed enough to experiance it.
So, for those who feel 'lost', 'down', 'depressed' think about it and try speaking to HIM. You will not regret it. After nearly losing my life in an awful car crash, I, for one is a 'living' proof.
That's all for today.
Stay well and cool.

Okay, I'm not feeling that well (having a slight fever) but I somehow managed to scramble my way to the PC to write something...anything...
Yes, updated one of my current fic and posted it this morning...was going to post both of the fic(s) but my head's throbbing and spinning...my body feels like jello and I've totally lost my appetite...
Still, I'm 'deligent' enough to visit this site and checked on my friends' updates... ...and I got to admit it did help me feel a little relieved as some of the post(s) were very entertaining and hilarious...guessed 'laughter IS the best medicine'!!
Got to get me some rest...My church Pastor's having a 'house-warming party' and I have to go...Dead or Alive...lol...plus, there's a band and choir practice session for tomorrow's worship...I don't know if I'd faint in the process but I have faith in HIM thus, I'll be alright...
I so gotta go now...the medication(s) are starting to get to me...
Hope I'll feel better later...Please pray for me, you guys... ;)
Will post another entry tomorrow.
Have a great weekend, you guys!

Oh, Might As Well...
Hi everyone!
Can't imagine I'd actually post my own blog but I was thinkin' since I've the access, why don't I just use it...? It'll be good as I don't keep a diary, this will kinda serve as one.
Okay, here I go...
Basically nothing much has 'happened' yet...at least not for today, so erm...yea, I was tryin' to fiddle with my page ie; checkin' my message(s), reading my Friends' blog(s), customizin' the theme of my page, uploadin' songs and that's right, startin' to blog!...
Decided to stick with the original theme coz' I like basic, simple stuff. I'm actually not that PC/IT Savvy and I was really happy to finally succeed in uploading my current favourite song (some indie/electro stuff) thus, the 'confident mood'...
Oh...I was ecstatic coz' just last night, I've been added as a friend by someone; whom never in my wildest dreams would actually be 'The Real Deal'! The fact of being so grounded, down-to-earth, unpretencious, not to mention Really Talented and Creative in regards to work and well...just life, in general...left me reeling in total awe. Kudos to you!
That's it for today...I'm off to update my current 2 crappy fiction(s) and hope that I don't get a 'writer's block' in the process which would be really awful...
Hope everyone is well and God Bless you all...

Can't imagine I'd actually post my own blog but I was thinkin' since I've the access, why don't I just use it...? It'll be good as I don't keep a diary, this will kinda serve as one.
