Spring has Sprung...

Early morning, and a couple hours later!

Yea! the first flowers... shows the squirrels didn't get all the bulbs.

from the corners of my basement

We're busy redoing our basement and in the shuffling, sorting and purging, I found a few treasures.

Although I was advocating for wood panelling, we decided to go with the "African outback". We're planning on making matching outfits, like the lady in the picture. Don't worry, we'll have a leopard print scarf for the visitors to wear so they feel like they fit in. Or some long grass they could hold. Rifles need to be checked at the door, however.

...love extravagantly

1 Corinthians 13 (The Message)

The Way of Love

1 If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don't love, I'm nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate. 2 If I speak God's Word with power, revealing all his mysteries and making everything plain as day, and if I have faith that says to a mountain, "Jump," and it jumps, but I don't love, I'm nothing. 3-7If I give everything I own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but I don't love, I've gotten nowhere. So, no matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I'm bankrupt without love.

Love never gives up.

Love cares more for others than for self.

Love doesn't want what it doesn't have.

Love doesn't strut,

Doesn't have a swelled head,

Doesn't force itself on others,

Isn't always "me first,"

Doesn't fly off the handle,

Doesn't keep score of the sins of others,

Doesn't revel when others grovel,

Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth,

Puts up with anything,

Trusts God always,

Always looks for the best,

Never looks back,

But keeps going to the end.

8-10Love never dies. Inspired speech will be over some day; praying in tongues will end; understanding will reach its limit. We know only a portion of the truth, and what we say about God is always incomplete. But when the Complete arrives, our incompletes will be canceled.

11When I was an infant at my mother's breast, I gurgled and cooed like any infant. When I grew up, I left those infant ways for good.

12We don't yet see things clearly. We're squinting in a fog, peering through a mist. But it won't be long before the weather clears and the sun shines bright! We'll see it all then, see it all as clearly as God sees us, knowing him directly just as he knows us!

13But for right now, until that completeness, we have three things to do to lead us toward that consummation: Trust steadily in God, hope unswervingly, love extravagantly. And the best of the three is love.

This is my latest addition into my chinese vocabulary which includes my name (Sau Ling) and my all time favourite expression, "go go die, dy dy seo" meaning "big brother big, little brother small."

comfort from a cuppa

Tonight was to be a night of salsa dancing and fun with Amanda on her birthday.... (happy birthday Amanda!)
Instead, I had the excitement of spending the evening at the Accident Collision Reporting Center. Thankfully, my dad came too (not his first time dealing with this stuff, on account of us kids...). Even more thankfully, I was not at fault.

On a semi-related topic, I think some of the bravest people I know are new immigrants. How hard it must be to leave everything you know and everyone you love .... to come to a place where you are alone, your education (if any) isn't recognized, you can't speak the language, and must struggle for so long to find firm footing. How brave.

(just pretend this was posted on thursday. i wrote it in my head on thrusday).

today was a blessing of a day. I called my Linds, and (be still my heart!), she had just stepped off the plane in Toronto. She was able to take a later flight back to Tbay, and I wasn't working... so we met up for a nice long brunch date.

And so, today I have been fully blessed.
