I did not excercise at all the past week.. the last was a game of badminton...

Team Hoyt - Dick and Rick Hoyt (Inspirational)

This is a inspirational video. Its about this father and son partnership.Dick (father) and Rick (son) Hoyt from america. Rick was partially strangeled by his umbilical cord when he was born so was brain-damaged and cannot control his limbs. But He can communicate by tapping acomputer key with his head.

After he told his father that he wanted to run in a charity run for a paralysed schoolmate, his father agreed and ran the race carrying him.

Rick said that he did not feel paralysed when he was being pushed in a wheelchair by his dad… so from then on, they enter marathons and triathalons together. They cant enter as a single runner, or as a wheelchair competitor so Dick just runs so fast pushing his son, that they qualify within the regular race qualification time for regular runners.

Its amazing! and they are only 35 mins off the world record marathon time! Because of the races, Dick (the dad) even managed to survive a heart blockage simply because he was very fit. So in some sense the son even saved the father:) If I’m not wrong the story first came out on Sports Illustrated.

A fathers’ love can be an amazing thing! (i miss my father!!!!!!!)

cute boy...

here is a clip of cute boy... amazing how GOD crafted such adorable round innocent face... how precious these little life must be to him... but also how fragile...

things happen every seconds around us... numerous murders, accident and rapes are happening while i am typing... sad but true...rem, the time when we are young, we will never think about such things... or even hear, read or see about them.. is it because it is happening more often now..

i doubt so.. maybe we are more aware of our surrounding as we grow, our tiny universal widen, our world expand. as we have more informations...

the second point that i want to make is about this expanding universe we live in.. as long as it does not happen in our universe, it has minimal impact on us... 911, Asia tsunami.. both great tragedy but nothing seems more real than a fellow Singaporean dying, a person with a name, a school, an address that u can associate with.... the effects multiply when it is a friends, & increase exponentially when it is a family member or someone close..

The fact is life is fragile...and we only have one to experience and fulfill...
in retrospect, every time something such as these things happen...(i have at least 3 friends who have already left me) i remind myself..

.Ben,

Seize everyday you have...cherish every relationship, esp my family.. and people who are dear to me.

.be happy, and if possible spread it to everyone that cross my path..

tell everyone that do not know, that our real life lies not in this world but in the arms of a loving father


.Daddy give me strength to live yr will for i know it is yr will for me to live a long and fruitful life!. guide me when i am lost, support me when i am weak.. love me when i need to be love....
