May We All Have A Vision .. Written by : Reiki Sanctuary Date : Wednesday, December 31, 2008

This is one song that always makes me to live life with a vision.  One that I will constantly play towards the end of a year.  One that will provoke my emotion, sometimes with sadness, to look forward.Today, as I look back, I am thankful that I am alive.  I am thankful that I have been given good health and been keeping safe.  I am thankful that I have been visited with love.  I am thankful that I have good meals all throughout the year.  I am thankful for all the life lessons learned, and shared, amongst families...

As We Say GoodBye To A Wonderful 2008 ... Written by : Reiki Sanctuary Date : Monday, December 29, 2008

This year has been a time of developmental phase.  An enormous interchange of comforts in [almost] every aspect of our journey - physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.  Nature intercepted us unexpectedly.  Along with it, and yet again, it brings about the value of change in us.  It has been a year of revelation.  A year where we, directly and indirectly, engage with the flow of forces. In metaphysical perspective, 2008 brings us to a reality beyond the world of physical forces and, at the same time, enriching...

It Is Only A GoodBye To Yesterday Written by : Reiki Sanctuary Date : Thursday, December 18, 2008

"Thank You" to all my friends, you really make me feel that we are bonded, for calling or sms-ing and asking about Ruby. Geez, what was I thinking!  Guess, I just have to make it sounds right now. Hehe, my entry, "You're Not Just A Memory" was just a reminiscence of the good old days at Hertford.  It was about the weekly walk where we took Ruby out.  It had always been a wonderful activity where, together with her, we spent quality time talking about anything and everything.  It brought us closer.  It gave us the meaning...

The Shambhalistic Life -- A Blessing Written by : Reiki Sanctuary Date : Tuesday, December 16, 2008

As the days passed, that we are settling comfortably here in Reiki Sanctuary, a new insight has started to become surreal.  Perhaps, it is the path of truth.  And, I just want to believe it is so.  An awakening of mindfulness on the path to immortality. A valuable gift, which was once given, lost.  Not that it was robbed away but, a lack of gratitude and mindless oblivious negligence, made it so easy to slip away. That's the power of gratitude.  When, and only when, we internalize the appreciation - big or small, everything...

Partnership With House Plants Written by : Reiki Sanctuary Date : Friday, December 05, 2008

A Dedication To All Our House Plants in Reiki Sanctuary We love having plants in the house.  They are just a simple placement art - a life-affirming nature that frees us to enjoy our surroundings and releases inner peace. Admittedly, we don't have green thumb.  All throughout, when we were in Hertford, many plants were brought home and withered (Haha, this would be a better word than to say that they all died in our hands).  Still, the love to have them sharing our home constantly keeps us getting new ones every now and then. ...

Let's Have A Little Tour - Part Four Written by : Reiki Sanctuary Date : Thursday, December 04, 2008

This is a room where one miscommunication, during the renovation, has turned out to be a blessing.  During the initial planning stage, we wanted to have a filing wardrobe above the study table.  Basically, it will be a wardrobe for files, books and stationeries.  Instead, Chiauw instructed the joiner for a shelf. Should we have insisted on the filing wardrobe, this whole study room will be cluttered.  There will be too much wardrobe all around.  We would probably regret it. Without the filing wardrobe, it makes the study...

I Could Have Given It Up Written by : Reiki Sanctuary Date : Monday, December 01, 2008

The past few weeks had been a mind blogging and puzzling occurrence.  I spent a lot of time trying to troubeshoot my computer problem.  The system was still running well.  There was no software lag nor were there any signs of serious hardware failure.  Haha, ok Choi! Choi! I was able to connect to the internet, sent and received emails and surfed well. There were no indicative serious malware problems but I had a blog annoyance.  My blog played punked on me.  It simply didn't allow me to sign-in.  Posting or...
