Humpty Dumpty

Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the Kings' Horses and all the Kings' Men
Couldn't put Dumpty together again.

Very very real in reality. This rhyme is a rhyme to all children as a warning that if you are not careful, one day you might fall and if you fall there might not be a next time anymore.

HD is an egg, a fragile giant size egg. very much like human physiology. Fragile, of cos nothing like the human spirit which is tough and determined. In any case, HD is a thrill seeker who enjoys nothing more than improving his balance by sitting on a wall. One day, while he was practising he swung too hard and fell off the wall. Unlike other times where the Kings' Men could put him together. This time, he broke into many, many small pieces, they just can't seem to put him back together.

HD forgot that he needed the Kings' Men to put him together so he kept going and going to the wall to swing and swing. what he doesn't realise is, there will come a day when the Kings' Men can't put him together again cos he does not allow himself to be put back together fully before going back to the wall to swing.

So the result is the final fall he has, he broke into even smaller pieces that even the best of Kings' Men cannot put him back together again.

The End

Michael Jackson R.I.P 1958 - 2009

Michael Jackson was laid to rest today at 50 years old, it was a sad, sad, sad day for all music fans around the world today.. Like many others around the world, I am watching the memorial and listened to his friends say the good things about him, reminisce his life and their memories of him and sing songs to celebrate and show the world who he really is.

I am sadden that Elayna would never be able to see such an amazing performer ever again. He was the King, he was the world's greatest entertainer, the world bowed at his feet whenever he sang and performed. I remember when I was old enough to know, the first few songs I loved was Michael Jackson's Heal the World. That was the first time I knew that music could be used for good things. When I first learnt that music could have stories, I watched Thriller. I was in a wonderland. As I sing to Elayna each day, although I may not sing the songs I used to sing but I know that one day she will ask me, " Mummy, who sang that ABC song?"

When I first learnt racial divide, I heard Black & White and I learnt that everyone was created equal. Men, women, children, people of different color, people of different languages they are no different. He reminded many people that he was only human and that everyone have every right to be who they are and not be subjected to every single aspect and second of their life under scrutiny in the song Scream with his sister Janet Jackson. It was there I learnt that music can be used to express fear, anger and despair at life as long as we are able to hold firm and stay strong with our family we can be strong.

Will you be there, taught me vulnerability, I am allowed to be vulnerable but hold strong at the same time. His music gave me strength, through the vulnerability that he showed the world, he gave others strength. He was that kind of person. He wore his heart on his sleeve and taught the world how to live through his songs. He was a generous man. He believed in the world and the world believed back.

His music told stories, his music flowed with emotions that filled my soul and taught the world that music can break all walls and barriers. He sang with love, passion, sorrow, anger but never hate. He showed that music could flow with emotions, could be filled with love. That is what I would want to give to Elayna. Music with love and passion that I can ever give her.

I am a fan and I still will even as he passes on. His music, his legacy will live on. I will let Elayna hear his songs, learn the words, sing his songs and share with her what I loved about him and his music. He gave his life for the music, he gave his life to the world. He lives in everyone, for he is everyone. He is the greatest performer and musician that ever lived and this planet had ever seen.

Life as at today

I think I have quite abit of pent up anger from alot things happening to me lately. It involves people being blind, involves my own inability to wake up eariler and my other faults and expectations.

I think I am a pretty capable person, I am described as quite self discipline by my family members and I am also known as quite a picky or fussy person. Other things that people know about me also involve me being quite spoilt (what to do, only child what), demanding and extra cautious. I am not the type who would throw caution to the wind and would always do my best whenever I am tasked with something. But somehow, I have been letting go of myself lately. Like today, i sent and email with the same contents 2x to my colleague, I was so so "all around" the place at work that people who see me at work ask me, why isn't there anyone helping you? That is one question I cannot answer and I just smile and think positive.

I really should get my ass working harder than ever and the thought that keeps me going like this is my baby girl. I know that what I do now is ever more important not only to keep our family as a well maintained dual income family(only heaven knows we need more) but also to be who I am as a better example to my girl that, women are capable of better. No longer are we the stay at home types and we are able to do more than ever. Balancing home and work with ease, especially with extra hands at home. No man or in this case woman is an island. Good teamwork is essential for things to happen.

I firmly believe in living and working by example. But the worse part is, I do not wish to have too much time taken away from my baby girl especially when she is so so young. Her formative years are now where I will see her growing up and developing a personality of her own. And now is the time where, having a mommy influence is important. I just hope that I have enough time with her.

My life as at today is one of the most fufilling and important times for me. I hope to be able to spend time with her and H together as a family more often. Its really just a matter of managing it, but to be fair which I always try to be it often serves to put me at a disadvantage no matter which way I see it. H often says when can I start thinking for myself on what I want more often for a change. I really don't know, I think my personality does not allow for me to be selfish and uncaring. But I can be a real cynical person at times who has a B**** mode if trodden on will appear and please back off.

There all different kinds of people in this world, the hard part is understanding what works the best for everyone and trying to create a standard. But the problem is, not everyone can be the same, its up to you to find the balance for everyone. Everyone is different so try to understand that there may be different means to an end for any person or situation so deal with it.

Talking and dancing Elmo

Its been quite some time. any case, saw transformers! It was so so so good!Loved the entire movie, though the ending was abit anti climatic. A good movie to watch if you are looking for great entertainment for a solid 2.5-3hrs.

What happens next is Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. Have already made a date with my aunt and H to catch the movie. I know it will be good...

Now for a mommy with a 4mth old daughter, I think I have had it easy. Its cos of my aunt who has been helping me alot. Really appreciate everything that I have and my daughter has. My aunt was searching high and low for her for the talking and dancing elmo. We were wondering where there would be. We visited Toys r Us and didn't imagine that its all sold out.

Well, whatever it is. I am happy and thankful that I have received so much and am grateful for it all.
