Birthday wishes

Any of the items below is welcome :- )

1. A CD copy of your favorite songs. I would like to develop my taste in music.
2. A copy of your favorite movie. I am sure that I can learn a lot from your point of view.
3. A short list of the websites that influenced you so much. I am interested to learn, too.
4. A copy of the book that had a great impact in your life. Or just lend it to me for awhile. I, too, am thirsty for wisdom.
5. Let's watch a musical. Your treat. I am easy to please.
6. If you have the budget, get me a pretty blouse.
7. Let's have coffee. This time, allow me to talk also.
8. Teach me how to put on make-up. That is a very good gift, indeed.
9. Make a valid comment on my recent blog. That is heartwarming.
10. Help me send a student to school. That can change the world. His world.

I am a simple gal. Greet me a happy birthday tomorrow.

Lion Chaser Manifesto

Quit living as if the purpose of life is to arrive safely at death. Set God-sized goals. Pursue God-ordained passions. Go after a dream that is destined to fail without divine intervention. Keep asking questions. Keep making mistakes. Keep seeking God. Stop pointing out problems and become part of the solution. Stop repeating the past and start creating the future. Stop playing it safe and start taking risks. Expand your horizons. Accumulate experiences. Enjoy the journey. Find every excuse you can to celebrate everything you can. Live like today is the first day and last day of your life. Don't let what's wrong with you keep you from worshiping what's right with God. Burn sinful bridges. Blaze new trails. Criticize by creating. Worry less about what people think and more about what God thinks. Don't try to be who you're not. Be yourself. Laugh at yourself. Quit holding out. Quit holding back. Quit running away.

Chase the lion.
