And God says …

In the hospital there were two groups of volunteers, one from a Catholic church and one from a Christian church. All the volunteers are good people no doubt, but they had different approaches to comfort serious ill patients like me …

One of the groups listened carefully and tend to share your concerns & sadness, they would pass some materials to you to read if you are really ready to join them, spiritually. The other group was pretty pushy, they would ask you to join them straight away no matter you’re recovering or dying … because they told me I would need that “ticket” to go to heaven.

Just guess who was who … Anyway, it reminds me a few lines in the movie “Evan Almighty” …

evan almighty

God:

“Let me ask you something.

If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient?

If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous?

If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?”

Complimentary Breakfast … not included

Once in a while, I receive emails about some special hotel deals and today I received one about some new hotels in Koh Samui, Thailand. “Great !!” I thought, I need more sunshine and rests … so let’s see what’s included in those new hotel packages …

Compliementary Breakfast

Oh … Compulsory Breakfast … I better prepare for it …

Andrea Bocelli and Elvis

I talked about Bocelli in my previous post … I think I first knew him was years ago when I switched to a German TV channel (well you know, it doesn’t mean I am fluent in German …) and it was an interview about a blind singer … oh what a singer … probably because he is blind, he put so much emotion and effort in every song he sings.

Elvis has just left us for 30 years … so here you go, an Elvis’ song by Andrea Bocelli. You will just love it, in fact, “can’t help falling in love” with this cover-version.
