Rays of Hope

Quote of the day -  Be strong now because things will get better. It might be stormy now, but it can't rain forever

It has been raining lately at Singapore, and looking out from the window of my room I saw this stormy scene heading my way. At that point of time, I was thinking to myself,  "okay there is going to be a big storm rain coming, which is bad and the stormy cloud is kind of dramatic".

After shooting the first frame, I realized something else in the scene. Instead of the dramatic cloud that caught my attention at first, I was now drawn by the ray that sits in the middle of the clouds. This scene then reminds me again;

No matter how stormy the situation that we are in now, there is always a ray of hope sitting inside the it. 

It might be stormy now, but it can't rain forever.

After every storm, there is always rainbow (or at least sunshine) for those who get through.

Stay strong, keep moving forward, keep believing, stay positive and have hope.

God Bless

PS : Remember, we can choose to focus on the storm or the rays of hope. The choice is in our hand :)

Quote of the day : All you dreams can come true if you have the courage to pursue them. - Walt Disney

There is this one day last week when I really had a bad day, really really bad day and I went to the mall after work and saw this particular scene when suddenly all the bad day thingy just replaced by the sudden sadness and sympathy.

Everyone is rushing around me, and then I saw this little boy, roughly the age of my little brother, a little bit chubby with spectacle, and standing at the side of the crowd finishing his chicken rice (those brown paper wrapped take away, not the polysterene box) on top of the trash bin! For the first time I had this kind of feeling, the sadness and sympathy on the little boy and wth the parents are doing? I do not know for what reason he is there standing and having his chicken rice on top of the trash bin, but it is definitely a scene sad to see.

If you are a parent, please be responsible for you children. If you are not a parent yet, please plan ahead for the sake of those little one who you will bring to life one day. They deserve a good and memorable childhood and family love!

That so much for being emotional, it is sad now even when recalling back on the scene to scribe those stuff on top.

The photo below was taken when I went for a walk at the Botanical Garden at Singapore. Not really as much of the stuff I had expected, but it is definitely a nice place for some family time and to relax yourself, if only the weather is good.
