A Shoot!

The day i saw these young plants, i was reminded of the 1st reading for December 18:

Jeremiah 23:5-8

5 Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will raise up a righteous shoot to David; as king he shall reign and govern wisely, he shall do what is just and right in the land. 6 In his days Judah shall be saved, Israel shall dwell in security. This is the name they give him: “The Lord our justice.” 7 Therefore, the days will come, says the Lord, when they shall no longer say, “As the Lord lives, who brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt”; 8 but rather, “As the Lord lives, who brought the descendants of the house of Israel up from the land of the north”— and from all the lands to which I banished them; they shall again live on their own land.

[further reading on Isaiah 11:1-10]

Just recently, these young plants grew so fast. In more than a week, they look like these (cute healthy seedlings):

>> funny how i don't even know the name of the plant <<

Jeremiah prophesied the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.
Even today, Jesus is our hope and our light.
May the essence of Christmas always be reflected upon and celebrated everyday and every moment of our lives.

This is my grown-up Christmas wish. ♥

Cloudy with a Chance of Rain??? XD

when Curves and Colors speak

There has been a tremendous amount of research on how color affects human beings and some of this research suggests that men and women may respond to colors differently. Color affects us emotionally, with different colors evoking different emotions. In short color has the capacity to affect the human nervous system. e.g Hues, Analogues, Complimentary.. etc.

OMG!! A SUPER MUST-READ booook!: ♥

i've come across this book last year and i just remembered to post this now

 ♥ sneak peak inside the book: ♥

one of my favorite experiments - on the right page

The impact of the acute angle of a triangle on a circle produces an effect no less powerful than the finger of God touching the finger of Adam in Michelangelo. 

~Wassily Kandinsky

Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI said in a 2007 interview: “Christianity, Catholicism, is not a collection of prohibitions: It’ a positive option. It’s very important that we look at it again because this idea has almost completely disappeared today."

So, if we find the Church too demanding, we must have a wrong image of the Church and of Christ. If we see these commandments not as a restriction but as an assistance to find our way, we could come to the conclusion that Jesus offers positive points, as Pope Emeritus Benedict said. We are invited to share these positive options as Andrew did with his brother, Simon.
