Something Beautiful!

Newsboys - Something Beautiful

I wanna start it over
I wanna start again
I want a new a new beginning
One without any end
I feel it inside
Calling out to me

CHORUS
It's a voice that whispers my name
It's a kiss without any shame
Something beautiful
Like a song that stirs in my head
Singing love will take us where
Something's beautiful

I've heard it in the silence
Seen it on a face
I've felt it in a long hour
Like a sweet embrace
I know this is true
It's calling out to me

CHORUS
It's a voice that whispers my name
It's a kiss without any shame
Something beautiful
Like a song that stirs in my head
Singing love will take us where
Something's beautiful

It's the child on her wedding day
It's the daddy that gives her away--Father
Something beautiful
When we laugh so hard we cry
It's the love between you and I
Something beautiful

*A very good song and here is a link to my favorite wedding, SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL - very simple yet very elegant... so touching. It made me cry the first time that I have seen it - Wedding of Rica Peralejo and Joe Bonifacio ---http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6K1yZ7URPA

P Y R A M I D - C H A R I C E

P Y R A M I D

Shawty's love is like a pyramid (ooh)
We stand together till the very end (eh ooh)
There'll never be another love for sure (ooh)
Iyaz and Charice let we go

Stones, heavy like the love you've shown (shown)
Solid as the ground we've known (known)
And I just wanna carry on
We took it from the bottom up (no no no)
And even in a desert storm (yeah)
Sturdy as a rock we hold (oh)
Wishing every moment froze
Now I just wanna let you know
Earthquakes can't shake us
Cyclones can't break us
Hurricanes can't take away our love

Pyramid, we built this on a solid rock
It feels just like it's heaven's touch
Together at the top (at the top baby), like a pyramid
And even when the wind is blowing
We'll never fall just keep on going
Forever we will stay, like a pyramid

Like a pyramid like a pyramid eh (ooh)
Like a pyramid like a pyramid eh (ooh)
Like a pyramid like a pyramid eh eh (oooh)

Cold (cold), never ever when you're close (close)
We will never let it fold (fold)
A story that was never told
Something like a mystery (yoh!)
And every step we took we've grown
Look how fast the time has flown
A journey to a place unknown
We're going down in history
Earthquakes can't shake us (oh)
Cyclones can't break us (oh)
Hurricanes can't take away our love

Pyramid, we built this on a solid rock (hey!)
It feels just like it's heaven's touch
Together at the top, (at the top baby) like a pyramid
And even when the wind is blowing (wind is blowing)
We'll never fall just keep it going (keep it going)
Forever we will stay, like a pyramid (eh oh)

Like a pyramid girl let me show you
That I love you so much
That we gonna get through (oh oh)
Even when there's storms
I will never go, Ima be the one to keep you safe (hey)
Before was our love back it up more than enough
Holding on to one another be the cover when it's rough (oh oh)
Mother nature (hey) or disaster won't stop at happy ever after

Pyramid, keep it going (like a pyramid, like a pyramid)
Oh oh ooooh (like a pyramid, like a pyramid)

Pyramid, we built this on a solid rock (solid rock)
It feels just like it's heaven's touch (oooh)
Together at the top (at the top baby, at the top girl), like a pyramid
And even when the wind is blowing
We'll never fall just keep on going (keep it going)
Forever we will stay (Charice), like a pyramid (what what)

Pyramid, we built this on a solid rock
It feels just like it's heaven's touch
Together at the top (at the top baby, at the top girl), like a pyramid (pyramid)
And even when the wind is blowing
We'll never fall just keep it going
Forever we will stay (ooh), like a pyramid

Like a pyramid like a pyramid eh
Like a pyramid like a pyramid eh
Like a pyramid like a pyramid eh eh

Snuggles of My Heart

my snuggles forever

Song for the Soul: Moon River

Moon River

Artist: Andy Williams

Words by Johnny Mercer and Music by Henry Mancini

From the movie "Breakfast At Tiffany's" starring Audrey Hepburn

Moon river, wider than a mile

I'm crossing you in style some day

Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker

Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world

There's such a lot of world to see

We're after the same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend

My huckleberry friend, Moon River, and me

(Moon river, wider than a mile)

(I'm crossin' you in style some day)

Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker

Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world

There's such a lot of world to see

We're after that same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend

My huckleberry friend, Moon River, and me

(Moon River, Moon River)

I grow up listening to old songs because of my Mama's fascination for it so I am already very familiar of this Moon River long time ago but it was during the "Lovers in Paris," a Korean drama series that started my love for this song. I could never forget the characters of - Vivian, Martin and Carlo. It was really a funny and romantic movie, plus there was that Paris scenes that made the movie more interesting for me . . .

I was fortunate enough to help a friend for her wedding in 2004 and we have that Moon River played at the church while waiting for guests to arrive before the ceremony took place. It was heaven to my ears . . . a song for my soul . . .

Motivation: Coffee!

Sunday Craving...

It has been a long time since I have posted here, been a lazy lady for the past days :(

Anyway, I am craving for pasta today. I have browsed this favorite dish - simple pasta at theartofjordan.blogspot.com and am craving for it already, will try it sometime when am not not too lazy to cook. Here is what I got then:

• pasta with fresh cherry tomatoes


• wilted baby spinach
  
• olive oil


• parmesan cheese and garlic


• salt and pepper to season.

Sounds so yummy in the tummy . . .

The Celestine Prophecy

My much loved book is THE CELESTINE PROPHECY
of James Redfield.

The greatest realization or learning that I have after a series of marathon reading is still Synchronicity - that Coincidences may have deeper meaning if we know how to look into and will just listen to the inner voice...

Why I got into this book?
Well, my Contemporary Philosophy Professor way back in College recommended this amazing book and I have been hooked since 1996 :)

Lavender Wedding Gown

It is my ultimate dream to see a Lavender Wedding Dress made in the Philippines and when I have seen it and read the blog of RAJO LAUREL last March 03, 2009 - A dream come true for me then! I adore his blog, I am an avid reader :) http://blogs.stylebible.ph/rajosblog/

My Recipe Journal

I started this recipe journal last November 04, 2006 but I have put up the collage cover consisting of WI leaf (Sorry for I don't know the name of the tree) and first fave chocolates (which I got during V Days) and candies given by him back in the day. I have just finished the little collage last week only : ) He loves to eat Baskin Robbins Mint Chocolate Chip. I love it also!

Through the years, I have collected a lot of recipes and made several notes related to it and on how to cook. I am into American and Chinese cuisine for those are his faves but I am also collecting Filipino dishes, my own faves so that I could cook it someday for us.

The first real cooking that I have done was during my birthday last year where I had a special baked Ziti. The experience of learning how to cook for the first time was both fun and tiring but at the end, it was very rewarding for my family loved it and I ate a lot, was so bloated after! Too bad he was not able to taste it then :(

Looking back, I grew up without any knowledge on how to do the household chores and cooking. I was never trained by my parents. We usually have household helpers or Mama would always do the chores but it changed when I have met him for he would want me to do the traditional things that mostly women would do around the house. And guess what, I have been enjoying it so far, nevertheless. Really enjoying the chores and cooking, though tons of it are purely practice and I would usually complain :)

Today, July 5, the entry for Simple Abundance Book by Sarah Ban Breathnach is Cooking Companions, what a great Coincidence then! Am doing my recipe journal and when I flipped through the Simple Abundance Book, I got the Cooking Companions as my inspiration for the day :) So sweet!!!

And I love the quotation that she has for today - "No one who cooks alone. Even at her most solitary, a cook in the kitchen is surrounded by generations of cooks past, the advice and menus of cooks present, the wisdom of cookbook writers." ~ Laurie Colwin.

Still of Laurie Colwin - "I know that young children will wander away from the table, and that family life is never smooth, and that life itself is full, not only of charm and warmth and comfort but of sorrow and tears. But whether we are happy or sad, we must be fed."

Priceless Words

Whenever am down in the dumps, I constantly read this note below - originally sent through e-Card and everything seems all right and perfect then . . .

"Hi sweetie, thought I would just send you a kiss,

I love you pumpkin.

You take care and be safe,

I miss you :(

Take all your meds,

Forget about work babe,

Don't put too much stock into what you do there or people you talk to.

It's just a boat, that will take you to your baby Jason,

And that's it.

Ok, so you remember that :)

It will all be over soon and you will be with me :)

Ok, take care,

I love you sweetie,

Can't wait until you are here,

Ok bye bye baby girl,

Love you.

Bye bye,

Mwaah :x:x:x "
