Came across a *really funny Ad on the subject which reminds me of one of my nephew... many years back.
We're all in my car heading towards the Singapore Zoo when all of us in the car get this "knock-out" smell.
We all quickly wound down our windows to get smell out. I asked if anyone might have stepped on some poo and got everyone to check their soles but nothing!
This repeated a couple times.... I guess, that nephew of mine might have finally figures that it must be his feet! 'Cos the moment he took off his shoes, there came the smell.
Watch this.....
I finally knew who was the culprit when we reached home that afternoon. When he walks in minus his shoes.... phew! GET THOSE FEET WASHED WITH SOAP.
Today, he is OK -- no such problem.
The moral of the story is NEVER wore your socks more then a day AND always wash your feet when you gets home.

What is LOVE?
Friday (14-Sep) -- I heard a sermon by Bro Kong concerning the significance love, which revived my thoughts about the same subject many years ago. From the time when I was a teenager, this had been my favourite research topic. Guess, I could share some of my thoughts on this topic of LOVE, from my own notes.... *if you care to read ;P
LOVE is an abstract that is beyond feelings, care and physical. It is something many teenagers (just like me before) had found it curious or even mysterious. Unfortunately, very often when they quest for more knowledge in the matter - inevitably, most tend to get entangled in the physical aspects and bring on themselves much problems.
You may be wondering what is LOVE's physical aspects? By my definition, these are the aspect where all our senses can detect. Don't let your narrow mindedness, restrict your understanding - it is not just about lust and sex.... broaden your mind and think again!
This is where most parents are having headaches with their teenagers, especially in today's moral standards. But, apart from highlighting the dangers, problems and responsibilities that comes with their reckless acts - trust me, there is nothing much any one parents can do. It is a journey of self-exploration for each teenager and a test of their maturity.
Like every other thing, not all will grow to fully understand and appreciate LOVE. Each individual will have different level of understanding and may at some point determine the meaning of LOVE for themselves and stop their quest. If you are one of them who had stopped (whether you be a teenager or an adult), you do not understand LOVE even if you may think you know.
Believe me, it takes a life time to know what is LOVE........ for eventually, the true seeker of LOVE will find it and will meet face to face when we dwell in LOVE.
Therefore, as Christians it is important for each of us to seek and understand LOVE.
1 Jn 4 v 16 – “….God is love, and everyone who has love is in God, and God is in him.”
1 Jn 4 v 8 – “He who has no love has no knowledge of God, because God is love.”
Bearing this basic in mind, I’ll share with you more of the attribute and significant of LOVE in my next few postings.
At the mean time, feel free to give me any comments or queries on my view.
