Dennis, the Great!

Thursdays are for GREAT PEOPLE in my life!

WELCOME TO 

"YOU'RE GREAT" 

THURSDAYS!

Today, I am featuring my husband, Dennis!


Since he's in an H4 visa. 

He keeps himself busy as he taps into his own creativity and ingenuity!

He is creating something out of scrap wood from neighbor's trash! (could be former bed support, cabinet, pallets, etc)

Making him the wood garbage collector.. and our house full of scrap wood!hehe



look at the bible holder/ created Jan. 2010
finished product :)


his very first project - all from neighbor's trash! (2009)
scrap wood turned kids' designer chairs (2010)


shopping cart-turned-rolling-study-table (2010)
our former grocery/laundry cart turned stroller! - especially made for mountain climbing at the Lookout Mountain, Chattanooga, TN. (2009)
old study table turned headboard (2012)
former folding bed turned clothes rack (2009)


Whilst, we are undeniably opposites…

You love to work with your hands, I would rather read.
You create things out of crap, I would rather write.
You make productive use of your time, I do too, right? :)
You're my exact opposite… and

I thank God for you! 

Thank you for being part of my life!  

Dennis!

NAMASTE.

I do what I do

Writing is my outlet! I have been doing this since Grade 4. When I’ve written what I have in mind, I would sleep really well and would move on.  So, it’s like a therapy to me! Lol! http://gemsdaily.blogspot.com I love writing, I love the process of unfolding, unraveling, cocooning, De-boning as I put the exact words in my piece.. Kind of like a puzzle... Almost there, but not quite... yet! I know I am involved in the process of becoming as I continue to write, as I continue to grow, yearn and learn. I am still challenging myself to be so much more, do so much more and make my dreams come true for myself and for my family.  I look forward to have us all achieve our grandest desires for ourselves and our loved ones.  My mission is to continuously inspire, encourage and motivate myself and hopefully – you! (if by chance you read this) to just get out of our shells and be, do and have more in life.  To BE MORE, D...

Learning Life's Lessons!

I heard or read somewhere that life will continue to give us lessons until we learn it. Two weeks after graduating from college, I was already teaching college students.    I was so idealistic, perfectionist and wouldn’t tolerate students who were cheating, talking while I was teaching and not doing their work. Ye s , I was really strict! Many of my former students would attest to that! The thing was even if I knew I needed to change, I continued on doing what I was doing because I was afraid if I lost my control, if I became friendly and acted my age (I was just 20 then!, some of my students were even older than me!), I felt my students wouldn’t respect me and may took advantage of my kindness. So I continued on with my demeanor; I pushed my students to meet my expectations! I abhorred cheating, if they did so (I was good at finding out; because all our activities were computerized), the next day they would find their names written in bold caps posted in t...
