My beloved.

When Tomorrow Starts Without Me

When tomorrow starts without me,

And I'm not there to see;

If the sun should rise and find your eyes

All filled with tears for me;

I wish so much you wouldn't cry

The way you did today,

While thinking of the many things,

We didn't get to say.

I know how much you love me,

As much as I love you,

And each time that you think of me,

I know you'll miss me too;

But when tomorrow starts without me,

Please try to understand,

That an angel came and called my name,

And took me by the hand,

And said my place was ready,

In heaven far above,

And that I'd have to leave behind

All those I dearly love.

But as I turned to walk away,

A tear fell from my eye,

For all my life, I'd always thought,

I didn't want to die.

I had so much to live for,

So much yet to do,

It seemed almost impossible,

That I was leaving you.

I thought of all the yesterdays,

The good ones and the bad,

I thought of all the love we shared,

And all the fun we had.

If I could relive yesterday,

Just even for awhile,

I'd say goodbye and kiss you

And maybe see you smile.

But then I fully realized,

That this could never be,

For emptiness and memories,

Would take the place of me.

And when I thought of worldly things,

I might miss come tomorrow,

I thought of you, and when I did,

My heart was filled with sorrow.

But when I walked through heaven's gates,

I felt so much at home.

When God looked down and smiled at me,

From His great golden throne,

He said "This is eternity,

And all I've promised you."

Today for life on earth is past,

But here it starts anew.

I promise no tomorrow,

But today will always last,

And since each day's the same day

There's no longing for the past.

But you have been so faithful,

So trusting and so true.

Thought there were times you did some things,

You knew you shouldn't do.

But you have been forgiven

And now at last you're free.

So won't you take my hand

And share my life with me?

So when tomorrow starts without me,

Don't think we're far apart,

For every time you think of me,

I'm right here, in your heart.

- Today I've had a steady stream soaking my face, I feel like such a loser.  It was a blah-zay kinda day, ironically equipped with gloomy weather outside, very fitting for my mood.  Today is no exception to the way I tend to feel, that I am angry and I'm lonely wishing that she never left me here .  Her picture brings me comfort, she is as beautiful as a rose.  Pictures like this one make me wish she was here with that warm smile of hers, so that "I" may capture it with my camera to keep forever.  I guess I'm just being jealous that my dad is the only one who got to use such a perfect model.  Here's hoping my memory will suffice for as long as possible! 

(yea sorry no rhyming for mee!!! :P)

Man vs. BBQ

Today is the first day of Spring!  I heard on the radio this morning an overcast high of 6 degrees.. Ha-ha! Bring it on!  The funny thing is that I had no idea that today was the first day of spring yet today ironically I had chosen it as my big house cleaning day and now it will be dubbed "Spring cleaning" Boo!  

I have a large extended family and when we get together especially during the warmer months we Bar-B-Q and have huge pot luck lunch/dinners.  That being said now that Spring is officially here I can't wait for it to start!

I snapped this picture of my Uncle A manning the BBQ last year during a gathering we had when my Uncle from San Francisco was in town.  I for some reason "really" like this picture lol.  Both their heads are chopped off and by my Uncles stance and tongs in hand he means business and those chickens are gonna get cooked!!  

As always the food was delicious and was washed down nicely with a refreshing glass of wine! :)

BEER

I don't even drink beer.. for those of you who know me well, know that I get the "Asain glow" from even smelling alcohol! Ha-ha  For those of you who didn't know...that's your Midas tip of the day! ;)

I pretty much take one of my many cameras almost everywhere I  go, so on this occasion because I had my DSLR in tow, I decided to get artistic in the Steam Whistle brewery beside the Rogers Center.  Neat lil place, I didn't do the tour because I have seen the Labatt and Guiness brewery already, (Yes, the Guiness brewery in Ireland...suckas! lol) plus didn't want to pay the coin to go inside.  I really dig the old buildings Toronto has and will probably take the time this year to explore them a bit more.  As for Steam Whistle they give you free little glasses, and when I say "glasses" I mean one. Ha-ha!  But yea that's incentive enough to go in and chill :)

Duck duck duck..GOOSE!

Ahh, Spring! Love is in the air and babies of all kinds appear! LOL... I shot these cuties at Chingcousay Park.  There were tons of little ones and about 3 adults.  I got pretty close to them..until I ran out of bread.. Yes, I bribed them!  It was adorable as one would run the whole clan would mash together and run the way a team of little kids go after a soccer ball when they don't hold their positions.  It was dusk and the sun was leaving the sky quickly, lots of the pictures were a little dark but I got some really cool ones.  Definitely an adventure I would like to undertake again when the spring comes again!
