There are times which can be tough in life, a change of management in work, stricken by a disease, out of love, out of job and etc. These can be short term or long term but it can never be permanent. Sooner or later, the bad times will get over and good times will be back. As the saying goes, Time will heals. And the time will also come when you get out of these dark times. It's just a matter of 'time'.

Thus, whether you are learning a new skill with a deep learning curve, facing your fears, fighting to get out of your doldrums in finance or health...keep going positively and work on it constructively, though you may not see the silver lining yet. There are no overnight stars but rather one who is polished in difficult times for a while in their darkness and they emerged as 'somebody'.

Endurance and patience will always work..it works for sportsmen and in my opinion, I'm sure it work for us. It's just like running on a treadmill, initially we run with determination and motivation but when we reach the last 1-2 laps, our mind and body give away and we thought about quitting. That's where endurance comes in and by enduring the last few laps, we accomplished our fitness goal. I believe this applies to life too. Just endure the difficulties that you're facing now or the race to accomplish your goals and with patience, soon you will come out victoriously!


Have a great week!

This eatery seems to open more and more branches in JB and they have every  reasons to do so. I'm not sure if there's a main branch at Pontian, Johor which I guess it's likely, but their noodles are really good. I heard that there are some branches in Singapore too. Well, I really need to try it!

I had their famous curry Laksa and it's very delicious! Just spicy enough and not too hot, nice delicious 'hums' or cockerels, I keep going and going with the bowl of noodles until it finished. Their laksa is a good recommendation.
The eatery is actually well-known for their wantan noodle and I try some, which is actually for my wife.  :) The noodles are indeed nice and fragrance. Anyway, I still love their Laksa and I was not surprise most of the folks there ordered curry laksa.
This is another good one-their fried wantan. Very crunchy indeed!
Here's their advertisement sticking on their glass door at a branch in Permas Jaya. Luckily it's air-cond inside there ...imagine having a bowl of curry laksa on a hot weather!!

Pontian Wanton Noodles is located at  - 61, Jalan Permas 10/1, Bandar Baru Permas Jaya, Johor.

I always wanted to bring my kid to attend my church's sunday school since last year but he always reluctant to go, thinking that a clowny Santa Claus always lurking in the church as he is afraid of every human being in costume...be it Santa, clowns, bears etc.... Then yesterday, while I'm almost ready to go to church, my wife suddenly joked with him whether he wanted to follow me. My prayers are answered.

However, since it was quite late and I'm unsure of where the kid's classes, I thought I just let him have a 'feel' of the church atmosphere while I bring him to the sunday school some other time.  After a while in the service and the sermon about to start, he asked me to bring him to the toilet. After he's done with his pee pee, I decided to sat at the last row, thinking I gotta leave early as he's getting bored.

Suddenly, a lady nearby waved to me and suggested me to bring him to the sunday school instead. That kind lady brought us to the class of his age group. I was delighted, didn't expected to bring him to the sunday school so fast..haha... I even skipped the sermon in order to accompany him.

My kid, in blue, above doing his colouring and that's where he started to enjoy the class. He was bored initially during the storytelling as he doesn't know the kids as well as the teachers.
Here's his 'masterpiece'... colouring a picture of Andrew and John casting their net onto the sea upon the Lord's Jesus Christ order. I will start bringing him to subsequent classes till he's used to it, then I will go back to attend the church's sunday service.
