Don't Give Up in You Life!

PLEASE READ THE STORY BEFORE YOU WATCH THE VIDEO.

It is a real story happened in real life. In a Chinese modern dance competition on TV, one very unique couple won the top prizes. The lady, in her 30's, was a dancer who had trained since she was a little girl. Later in life, she lost her entire left arm in an accident and fell into a state of depression for a few years.
Someone then asked her to coach a children's dancing group. From that point on, she realized that she could not forget dancing. She still loved to dance and wanted to dance again. So, she started to do some of her old routines, but having lost her arm, she had also lost her balance. it took a while before she could even make simple turns without falling.
Then she heard a man in his 20s who has lost a leg in an accident. He also fallen into the usial denial, depression and anger type of emotional roller coaster. But she determined to find him and persuade him to dance with her. He had never danced and to "dance with one leg... are you joking? No way!" But she didn't give up and he reluctantly agreed thinking, "I have nothing to do anyway." She started to teach him dancing 101.
Both of them broke up a few times because he had no concept of using muscle, how to control his body and knew none of the basic things about dancing. When she became frustrated and lost patient with him, he would walk out. Eventually, they came back together and started training seriously.
They hired a choreographer to design routines for them. In the competition, you'll see how they dance and won the competition. It's really amazing. They are the excellent example for all of us. They proved that they can make it even they have disability on their body. What to say for us who are born perfectly without any disability.



Such a touching video isn't it? I have watched it for few times and it never fails to make me cry every single time when I watch it.

After the story and the video, the main point to tell is still APPRECIATE WHAT YOU HAVE, DON'T GIVE UP IN YOUR LIFE!

11 Life Lessons to Learn

Year of rabbit was a past, it's already the 6th day of dragon year. Everyone of us are getting older. As what idiom said, "One year older, one year wiser" and I'm going to share some tips on how to be a wiser one. :)



1. Always out God first
"When we put God first, all other things fall into their proper place" -- Pres Ezra Taft Benson (May, 1988)


2. Life is too short
"This is your life. Do what you love, and do it often. If you don't like something, change it. If you don't like your job, quit. If you don't have enough time, stop watching tv. If you are looking for the love of your life, stop; they will be waiting for you when you start doing things you love. Stop ever analyzing, all emotions are beautiful. When you eat, appreciate every last bite. LIFE IS SIMPLE. Open your mind, arms, and heart to new things and people, we are united in our differences. Ask the next person you see what their passion is, and share your inspiring dream with them. Travel often; getting lost will help you find yourself. Some opportunities only come once, seize them. So go out and start creating. Life is live your dream, and wear short. Your Passion." -- The Holstee Manifesto, 2009

3. Live in the moment you are in
"If you are always racing to the next moment, what happens to the one you're in?
Enjoy the Ride."


4. Best things in life are never things
"The best things in life aren't things."


5. You MUST learn to step outside of your comfort zone
"Life begins at the end of your comfort zone" -- Neale Donald Walsch


6. Be grateful... for everything
"Thank you God fro blessing me much more than I deserve."


7.Forgive... otherwise you are only hurting yourself
"Forgiveness is not something we do for other people. We do it for ourselves to get well and move on."


8. Laugh... every day
"The most wasted of all days is one without laughter."


9. Always believe in yourself
"Always remember you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think."


10. Love like there is no tomorrow
"Love is patient; love is kind. It does not envy; it does not boast. It's not self-seeking; it's not easily angered. It keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. LOVE NEVER FAILS. -- 1st corinthians 13: 4 - 8


11. Have faith and trust our God
"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. -- hebrew 11:1"




Be Careful of a THIEF with NEW Toyota Vios (Kota Kinabalu, Sabah)

Are you a Sabahan? If so, please beware of this new Toyota Vios car. If not, you should still be aware of it. The house owner in the video was very luck but you will never know that you might be the next victim. This reflected how seriously is the social corruption in the society today.
