Voyage to Avalon

Whumph the Tsunami, People were saying is an act of god? Others are saying that we Humans brought it upon ourself , Other said it is a conspiracy of a super weapon detonated underwater, Some say It's the first of many signs of the Revelation.

What I do know however is that the Deed had been done, the event had occured, 1000s of People are dead in the streets, million are homeless and who can say the extend of decay and pestilence to follow. Poverty subsequently, despair, hopelessness and anger.

Who are "they" to point fingers and accuse each other of What could have or could happened if This and that were done. In my eyes it's everyone responsibility, In my eyes this is but a taste of whats installed for the human race and its offprings if things do not change in the next subsequent centuries.
World super powers should wake up from this "compassionate" warning call. Unless of course they are waiting for something of this magnitude to hit their "protected and safe" shores and borders.

It may happen in my lifetime, it may not.
My prayers and blessings goes to everyone affected.
May god be your shining light through the dark pasages wherever you may be and whatever believed in.

Of Xmas, Wine and Whiskey and incoherent ramblings.

Dear blog,
Things are never What It seem to be and the only thing that I've learnt recently is that the only constant thing in the world is "Change".
Yes Change ladies and gentleman. Like a recent conversation with my good "consult" Xmas ain't what it seems to be anymore, unlike the earlier days. "Cousins" get married, less family gathering and etc.

Even myself who had boast and had proven time and time again my integrity in drinking had succumb to the Young Executive life of work which left me exhausted and lack of sleep prior to the binging session. I couldn't even whole half the volume I used to be able to when I was back in the states not long ago. Yes things do change a lot. Heck even going through photos of myself from school, collee,uni and now. It looks like I'm 4 completely different person.

Well other than that I didn't know I rambled in Japanese, some part of my cognitive processes must be thinking in Japanese all this while SheeShhhhh.
I don't know whether to be proud of or not.

Back to the earlier conversation I had with my sea-faring buddy.Ahhhg where were we "Change is Constant." Call it "Destiny,Fate"Tien Wui"(SKy/God's will) If you must. But somethings are so much only controllable by mortals.

1 Corinthians 1:26-31. So where do we fit in? The flaws or the perfection? or both?

Well to close this letter to myself/Blog. Yes ladies and gentleman for the first time in my life I admit of being ashamed and a fool. Before this all other events had never really made me reflect and admit that the flaws came within myself time. Yes people the all powerful/super Daryan had conceive defeat to himself. I'am my own undoing. Not inconceivable at this point but it was before. Never had I imagined that I would be my own downfall, I always thought it would be enemies, work , studies and etc. At this point my own Naccissism got the best of me.

At this point the only direction is to look forward, I take this as my Xmas give from god. Some things are beyond our jurisdiction as mortals but I will challenge myself to be master of what I have jurisdiction on. Starting with myself.

MErry Xmas and God bLess everyone!

What I Sincerely Abhor.


I know most of you has felt this before once ,twice or many times in your life before.

Where a friend will make use of you as a means to an end or in simple terms convenience.

Friends indeed.

I'm starting to see what others had told me before. Not that I didn't think it was real but rather I didn't wish to believe it. But today I saw it and was rather "It".

Something has ignited within me and I'm starting to feel that a blog ain't a blog anymore if too many people you know. Especially people at times whom you blog about, whether in codes/nicknames/abstract intepretation reads it.

BaH come with me with all you might and power. Come!
This is a challenge.
Know this * I DO NOT FEAR YOU *

(continues mumbling in unaudible sarcasm and a 1000 unpleasant words that only Cantonese can potray in all its ingenious glory)

That time of the year


I remember a time and I'm sure some people do mention now and then that sometimes X'mas can be loneliest times of the year.

Very true, I myself have experienced X'mas away from friends and family more than half the time in the past decade.

But that's the way life goes. Like being the STAR of the party and the most popular guy but still feeling empty,
Yes it happened in Lexington and as well as TOkyo,
Thank god it did not happened in London.

Now back in KL , I figured things would have been different. Well the churches here somehow ain't like the ones I attended in the states ,Houston and LExington.

So here I' am.

Whumm don't understand what I"m saying, don't bother

Whummm


So what can I say "Training was great" lots of very potential people there and very healthy competition.

But on other hands vI can't accept one thing on another note. Maybe because this "action" reflects a philosophy completely opposite of my own.

What a Waste Sighhhh.

Memorial for a dear friend and inspiration,


Today I just got news that one of my friend back in Lexington whom I hanged out a lot with in the 2 1/2 years when I was in the states had passed away.

His name was Kho Yeh Wei, he's a Malaysian, not even in his 30's but had passed away. He had a Phd in Chemical Engineering. My church in Lexington worship team leader, my monday night basketball team captain, in many ways my role model. Handsome by Asian standards as well.
The last I saw him was during my graduation 2 years back ,then i was off to Malaysia and he to New york for a very good job.

But life took it turn, and my remaining contact in the states just informed me of the bitter news. It seems so sad that I can't attend his memorial in Lexington Kentucky.
But my heart and prayers go with him.

God bless you Kho Yeh Wei.
You have been a role model in both studies, sports, spirit and life.

May god embrace you with all the love in the world.
