Undeterred by the haze


DAYBREAK Walkathon. Pictures taken at about 8.00 a.m., 10th October 2006 at the Ipoh Polo ground. Three ladies masked and ready to go despite the haze. Can you figure out who they are?
This Walkathon was held to raise funds for the DAYBREAK Landscape Project. This horticultural project will provide employment for the handicapped. The plants will be purchased by various housing developers in the country.
DAYBREAK stands for Disabled Adults and Youths Being Rewarded, Encouraged and Accepted in Kinta.

ACS USC TAG ReUnion

ACS USC is straight forward, Anglo Chinese School Upper Science C but what is TAG? Well...... it is not tau sau pow or those sort of stuffs. It is something I just coined....TAG = Teluk Anson Gang even though it should be called TIG cos Teluk Anson is now Teluk Intan but TA sounds more nostalgic, exciting & far away la.

After so-so many years we met for lunch today and for those who do not know all the 4 of us (including me) had our origins in Teluk Anson (now Teluk Intan) also better known as the town with the Leaning Tower of Perak. I was born in TA and only came to Ipoh after standard 3.

Lunch was simple but the company & fellowship was great and plus all the catchups....some very funny and others simply delicious. Also discovered or rather we decided that we were all sort of related somewhere plus another one in Oz. Hemhemmmm what a discovery but better late than never! Its sort of a bit long and complicated maybe I will update that in another blog ....

FAITH

Christians are believers in Christ and they have faith in His teachings.

Here is how a Bible dictionary defines faith:

Faith means abandoning all trust in one's own resources.
Faith means casting oneself unreservedly on the mercy of God.
Faith means laying hold on the promises of God in Christ, relying entirely on the finished work of Christ for salvation, and on the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit of God for daily strength.
Faith implies complete reliance on God and full obedience to God.

Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
