Short Spiky Hair




What's the best thing about having a drastic change in hairstyle? It really draws attention. The reaction from others is just fantastic. Questions of why followed by compliments and approval makes the change worthwhile.


Personally, it's life transforming because wherever I go, the reflections I see from mirrors, windows, reflective door panels or even the shape of my shadow makes me feel different and new. It has a psychological effect of change and transformation. Furhemore, the feel of running my hand over the short cropped hair is really pleasurable. Felt like a permanent spiky fabric over my top.

What's next? A beard?

Cool Refreshing Lemon Tea

The simple pleasures of life can come from the simplest ordinary things. For instance the ingredients of slice lemon, sugar syrup, water and ice cubes in a tall glass makes such a refreshing drink on a hot sweltering day. Imagine the cool sweet sour taste just running down your throat with every gulp you take....it's delightful thirst quencher. Bravo!

Painting in the Sky



It is said that clouds don't form exactly the same way more than once. And how true it is. Clouds are fascinating. They make good subjects for photography because every formation and colour is different and unique. It is as though a new painting is in the sky everyday and it's free to view. With a bit of play of the camera and angling, great shots are just waiting to be captured. Snap, snap away!

Garden in a Bottle


You have heard of a message in a bottle but how about a garden in a bottle? Yes, you can have a small garden in a bottle. Grow some indoor plants in a bottle containing soil and enclosed. It should be able to survive because it produces carbon dioxide in the night but reuses it to produce oxygen in the daytime. In other words, it's self sufficient. I'm about to seal my bottle as seen in this photo. Pretty neat. A self contained eco-environment just for the plant. By the way do you know what this plant is called? I just picked it up from my car porch area.

Peeling away to the Core



The human heart is like an onion....layers upon layers of covering till the outer tough exterior that seems impenetrable. We can never know the true nature of a person from the exterior for what lies beneath is hidden very successfully. How long does it take to befriend and how much trust must we show before the real person is revealed? Every human heart is vulnerable and therefore is closely guarded. Who knows and fully understand what is deep down inside? Only the Creator can tell.

Bouncing Off the Wall

The term Back and Forth applies to many situations in life. Our daily travel to work goes in that particular rhythm. So does the flow of conversation between 2 persons, I said something and you say something...and so it goes.
But the back and forth action can be applied in a attack and defend mechanism. Particularly in games....attack when you are strong...defend when you need a break. But in this case the opponent is a stiff wall. The tennis ball just goes back and forth because somebody needs to practise his shots...real badly.
