SO Apt for Malaysian Drivers!!
By Paul McCann
Careless cars cutting corners create confusion .
Crossing centrelines.
Countless collisions cost coffins.
Collect conscious change.
Copy?
Continue cautiously.
Comply?
Cool.

Matthew 7:13-14, Mew International Version
“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”
Matthew 7:13-14, King James Version
13Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Embedded in life is that of purpose,
And within purpose there is passion.
Passion to believe,
Passion to hope,
And most importantly, passion to love.
Though many assume prosperity in abundance,
So do many succumb to discern,
that genuine treasures lies in that of the heart.
Power, ignorance and egotism have blinded our eyes,
to the atrocities of now, the sufferings of the innocent.
Wars, famine, ailments, all the consequences of us.
But do not fear, do not be disheartened!
the Sovereign’s profound message still holds strong,
how fortunate we are, that someone believes in our entirety!
Don’t gallop too quickly, however,
the journey to purpose sways back and forth,
hold on tight, because it is no easy ride.
But rest assured,
You are heard, from above and beyond.

Lesson today in Spanish: write a rhyming poem of vowels with at least two stanzas and at least four lines in each.
I HATE RHYMING, LET ALONE RHYMING IN SPANISH!! GRRR!
Anyway, here it is, I tried my best with a blend of cognates!
La vida es verdaderamente una celebración,
aunque habrá muchas complicaciones.
Haga no, sin embargo, permita que ellos afectar su concentración, porque es solamente una confrontación.
La vida es un regalo precioso,
¡Usted nunca sabe, cuando su vida puede caerse rodando apenas un precipicio!
Así, es recordado por favor,
nunca dar por sentado vida.
English translation:
Life is indeed a celebration,
although there will be many complications.
Don’t, however, let them affect your concentration,
because it is merely a confrontation.
Life is a precious gift,
You never know, when your life may just roll off a cliff!
So, please be reminded,
never to take life for granted.
Another poem in Spanish for assignment today.
¿Qué puedo decir yo acerca de la educación?
Es una combinación,
del conocimiento y la aspiración.
Sin ello, usted no tendrá alabanza.
Sin embargo, consigo, usted tendrá una percepción culta.
Con ese propósito en la mente,
aplique la diligencia y practique,
y la verdad que usted encontrará.
English translation:
What can I say about education?
It is a combination,
of knowledge and aspiration.
Without it, you will have no commendation.
However, with it, you will have an enlightened perception.
With that purpose in mind,
apply diligence and practice,
and the truth you shall find.
It takes something tragic to make one realize the beauty and truth of life’s enduring journey.
Chanel Petrus 8 May 2003 – 3 September 2009
Forever Loved
For my baby Chanel…the most loyal and best friend I have ever had. I will always love you my baby, you will always have a special place in my heart.
I remember that look upon your beautiful face,
That said “take me home, and I’ll love you for the rest of my life.”
How could I resist the spell you had cast? I was left but with one choice,
To draw you into my embrace.
Since then, your puppy paws left an indelible mark upon my heart:
I remember the time when I could not walk, when I fell ill,
You were better medicine than any potion or pill.
Even though we could not play or walk around,
In you, unconditional love I cherish and found.
I remember moments the world’s eyes judged and criticized,
You were my salvation that God devised.
As no prejudice or hate flickered on your face,
Such love is lacking in the human race.
No better companion can be found, as darkness fell you stood beside me,
No words need be spoken, on my lap your paws were no absentee.
“Take comfort in me, I will stay with you till the very end,
Although, sometimes my antics might drive you around the bend.”
Your childhood pranks, the shoes you chew and tore,
Running riot through the streets, in happy galore.
Oh no it wasn’t funny, not in the least,
I was petrified beyond belief!
I’ll always remember your love for rides in the car,
How you used to jump in no matter where, near or far.
And how much you loved the sand, the sea, the beach,
Always bounding with endless energy just out of my reach.
Your love for children was an endearing trait,
You tolerated everything they threw on your plate.
They rode you, carried you and tugged on to each ear,
Yet you patiently endured it all, not snapping in rage or fear.
But that was not so when you went on your dates,
Choosy you were with your offered mates.
Those hips you shook high, you held close to ground,
Waiting for the right mysterious one to come around.
And with him, all eight pups that you bore,
Drove me ever so nuts to the core!
And while they did not like massages and forced yoga as much as you,
I know you taught them well as they’ll love their humans true.
It was so brief, your time here on earth,
You were taken abruptly, the years seem a dearth.
I will forever live with regret that I was not there by your side,
To thank you for your eternal love, before you journeyed through the Rising Tide.
Please forgive me, my dear sweet girl,
Just know that you will always be my white and shining pearl.
Precious and beautiful, without blemish or flaw,
Your genuine and unrestricted love resounds in awe.
As I kneel before God, I have but one request,
“Dear Lord, cradle my beloved Chanel and give her my best,
Assure her that she is loved, so deep in my heart,
For I will meet with her one day, and we will NEVER again part.”

Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. – Hebrews 11:1
I can’t decide which one I agree with more:
1) Money is the route to all evil
2) Lack of money is the route to all evil
Hence the swinging pendulum.
