Bird Bird 再見了...
十二月三十一曰,陰天及寒冷。與我們生活過了五年多的bird bird...今天早上離開了我們,她隨着天使靜稍稍的返回到天父的身邊。可能天氣太冷,她病倒了。又或是百年歸老的原故。無論如何我們整家人都有點兒失落及傷心。
Bird Bird ...多謝您為我們帶來了很多回憶,我們會永遠的懷念您。

He has reminded me...
In the middle of Sunday Service, Jesus has spoken to me, "My dear, it does not matter how many times you have been hurt by others in this year, it does not matter how disappointed are you with the things that have been happening. As long as you look up the cross and remember how I died for you. Anything should not be any matter at all."
After hearing this message, my heart sunk and everything went silent... no more compliant, no more hard feeling, just LOVE.

Homless people
Weather is getting colder tonight and I am thinking of this news when I am staying in a heated and warm home:
A bouquet of red poinsettias atop a blanket of fresh snow marks the spot a homeless woman lost her life trying to keep warm in downtown Vancouver early Friday morning.
Police say the 47-year-old Abbotsford, B.C. woman -- known only as Tracey -- died after trying to stay warm in a shopping cart. Her body was discovered between after 4:30 a.m. at the corner of Davie Street and Hornby Street.
"I've been on 30 years (and) this is probably one of the hardest calls I've had," said Vancouver Police Sgt. Steve Gibson.
Police spokesperson Const. Jana McGuiness says officers approached Tracey at least three times Thursday night, offering to take her to a nearby shelter. Police believe she was trying to keep warm with a candle or heater and her blankets caught fire.
Police don't know why the woman refused to go to a shelter, but said she was "annoyed and argumentative" when approached for the last time around 12:30 a.m.
"She wanted to be left alone," said McGuiness. "I find that hard to believe given that it's minus 10 C, but we have to respect her privacy and independence and leave her alone."
We should be always thanksful to whatever we have. For most of our times, we take a lot of things for granted.
