People wouod always forward a message they receive. Be it a chain message or information contained message to the relevant parties or their families and friends. However, I want to do a different one from the others... This is a meaningful messgae. Please take a time to read it. It will be your choice in the end if you want to copy and forward to your friends or delete and ignore the message behind it.
⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓
It's a long message. But do read to end. It's a touching story.

At a fundraising dinner for a school that serves children with learning disabilities, the father of one of the students delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by all who attended. After extolling the school and its dedicated staff, he offered a question:
'When not interfered with by outside influences, everything nature does, is done with perfection.
Yet my son, Shay, cannot learn things as other children do. He cannot understand things as other children do
Where is the natural order of things in my son?'
The audience was stilled by the query.
The father continued. 'I believe that when a child like Shay, who was mentally and physically disabled comes into the world, an opportunity to realize true human nature presents itself, and it comes in the way other people treat that child.'

Then he told the following story:
Shay and I had walked past a park where some boys Shay knew were playing baseball. Shay asked, 'Do you think they'll let me play?' I knew that most of the boys would not want someone like Shay on their team, but as a father I also understood that if my son were allowed to play, it would give him a much-needed sense of belonging and some confidence to be accepted by others in spite of his handicaps.
I approached one of the boys on the field and asked (not expecting much) if Shay could play. The boy looked around for guidance and said, 'We're losing by six runs and the game is in the eighth inning. I guess he can be on our team and we'll try to put him in to bat in the ninth inning.'
Shay struggled over to the team's bench and, with a broad smile, put on a team shirt. I watched with a small tear in my eye and warmth in my heart. The boys saw my joy at my son being accepted.
In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay's team scored a few runs but was still behind by three.
In the top of the ninth inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the right field. Even though no hits came his way, he was obviously ecstatic just to be in the game and on the field, grinning from ear to ear as I waved to him from the stands.
In the bottom of the ninth inning, Shay's team scored again.
Now, with two outs and the bases loaded, the potential winning run was on base and Shay was scheduled to be next at bat.
At this juncture, do they let Shay bat and give away their chance to win the game?
Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. Everyone knew that a hit was all but impossible because Shay didn't even know how to hold the bat properly, much less connect with the ball.
However, as Shay stepped up to the
plate, the pitcher, recognizing that the other team was putting winning aside for this moment in Shay's life, moved in a few steps to lob the ball in softly so Shay could at least make contact.
The first pitch came and Shay swung clumsily and missed.
The pitcher again took a few steps forward to toss the ball softly towards Shay.
As the pitch came in, Shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to the pitcher.
The game would now be over.
The pitcher picked up the soft grounder and could have easily thrown the ball to the first baseman.
Shay would have been out and that would have been the end of the game.
Instead, the pitcher threw the ball right over the first baseman's head, out of reach of all team mates.
Everyone from the stands and both teams started yelling, 'Shay, run to first!
Run to first!'
Never in his life had Shay ever run that far, but he made it to first base.
He scampered down the baseline, wide-eyed and startled.
Everyone yelled, 'Run to second, run to second!'
Catching his breath, Shay awkwardly ran towards second, gleaming and struggling to make it to the base.
B y the time Shay rounded towards second base, the right fielder had the ball . the smallest guy on their team who now had his first chance to be the hero for his team.
He could have thrown the ball to the second-baseman for the tag, but he understood the pitcher's intentions so he, too, intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third-baseman's head.
Shay ran toward third base deliriously as the runners ahead of him circled the bases toward home.
All were screaming, 'Shay, Shay, Shay, all the Way Shay'
Shay reached third base because the opposing shortstop ran to help him by turning him in the direction of third base, and shouted, 'Run to third!
Shay, run to third!'
As Shay rounded third, the boys from both teams, and the spectators, were on their feet screaming, 'Shay, run home! Run home!'
Shay ran to home, stepped on the plate, and was cheered as the hero who hit the grand slam and won the game for his team
'That day', said the father softly with tears now rolling down his face, 'the boys from both teams helped bring a piece of true love and humanity into this world'.
Shay didn't make it to another summer. He died that winter, having never forgotten being the hero and making me so happy, and coming home and seeing his Mother tearfully embrace her little hero of the day!
AND NOW A LITTLE FOOT NOTE TO THIS STORY:
We all send thousands of jokes through the e-mail without a second thought, but when it comes to sending messages about life choices, people hesitate.
The crude, vulgar, and often obscene pass freely through cyberspace, but public discussion about decency is too often suppressed in our schools and workplace.
If you're thinking about forwarding this message, chances are that you're probably sorting out the people in your address book who aren't the 'appropriate' ones to receive this type of message Well, the person who sent you this believes that we all can make a difference.
We all have thousands of opportunities every single day to help realize the 'natural order of things.'
So many seemingly trivial interactions between two people present us with a choice:
Do we pass along a little spark of love and humanity or do we pass up those opportunities and leave the world a little bit colder in the process?
A wise man once said every society is judged by how it treats it's least fortunate amongst them.
You now have two choices:
1. Delete
2. Forward
May your day, be a Shay Dayl

Its so fast... Its already my 80th post here... Time do fly really fast...

Had an early bday celebration on Friday 17Oct. Together with my bro. Invited my uncle and fam, my 2 babes and my brozs friend since hes also celebrating together as his is only 4days before me so might as well celebrate together.
Was really happy that my 2 babes could make it... Its been long since the three of us have met together... If im not wrong, the last time we three were together was last years Rachel's bday...

The presents I have received this year~~~ Really blessed to have them in my life and thanks for the gifts, Rachel, Sharon, My god mum and fam, and also my 婶婶and fam~~~


This years bday cake... 


Me and my bro~~~


Had steamboat for this year...
After that, my two babes overnight at my house as it was quite late already... Luckily, my god mum and fam was heading back to their house so we could occupy their room for that night... Washed up and changed and then we went into the room. Laid out the mattress and we were still chatting and playing away. It was only until about 12++ I fell into deep sleep then they continued to play with loom bands... Guess they are addictted to it already... Heheheh...
They slept at about 2++. Woke up in the middle of the night as we frozen to death... Hahahaaah oops.. Switched on the air con to the coldest and to the highest fan speed... Hahahah literally in winter feels~~~
They next morning, I woke up at about 7.51am and went to wash up and change... Rachel also woke up at that timing and she too, washed up...
This fish, or maybe should I change to pig? Was still sleeping away... hahhaha




Im really blessed to have these two in my life. Without them, I guess I could have missed out on alot of the fun and laughter shared with them. Although we may fight at times, but we were easy to forget and forgive. Those days spent in Secondary School days were the best... If only we could rewind the tine back. It was the best moments in my life. Really thank you gurls for always giving me the best advice whenever I need it and also brightening up my gloomy days whenever Im feeling low. The helping hands and ears that always pulled my thru the low times and also all those long winding rants from me. Im always annoying you gurls but you gurls have always tolerated it. Really thankful for that. Our friendship will never end here but it will.continue on and it will get stronger than ever! I LOVE YOU GURLS!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆

Hellooooooooooooooooooooooo~~~
Am getting too excited? Nope. Hehheheh!! Oh well~~~ Im crazy!!! 😂😂😂😂😂

Just gonna update a short one~~

Things are still the same at work... Always the same thing...
Did some roundings today and know what? We went to the wrong estate!! Hahahaaha how dumb of us!! We were suppose to go to Montreal Drive but we went to Woodlands Drive instead!😂😂😂😂

Went off to get my brothers bday gift after work today and it took me a long time to search a present that will suit him... In the end bought him a wallet that is simple but looks classy. Proud of myself.. *Pat myself on the shoulder*




—–------------—---------------------------------------------------------

Its has always been a habit of mine that whenever I worked and the pay comes in, i will always give a amount to my grandma and my parents. It will always give a sense of achievement that Im able to give them money which is hard earned by myself. This happiness is valuable. It can never be put into simple words. Nothing explains more of what is gained through all these...

Sometimes i really do wonder if you had ever cared and got worried for me like i did for you.
Was that friendliness only for show?
But somehow i know it wasnt.
Those times when you really confide in me... It just shows that you really treasured the friendship but then you broke it. The laughters and the silly times...
Its a total distance now.

我只想问一句 - 这一切还有挽回的余地吗?

😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔
