moments of colours

I have been feeling low these past few days. I had to change my email address to a new one. I can’t view even my friendster page now…. Until yesterday, I have been receiving calls from my friends to confirm if the mail they got from me is true….. Oh well….

Then, as I checked on my page this morning and dropping on some visitors’ and my friends’ posts, I got a note! I have an award from my new found sistah, Timi of Crimson Heavens. Thanks sis!

Got this power blog award from Timi too.

The Rules:
1. Each blogger must post this rules.
2. You need to choose ten people to be awarded and list their names.

WTF Do you Blog About!?

Just in time, I was able to change my password and get the names of my yahoo contacts. I have spent the morning trying to wait for my antivirus to finish scanning my pc. Whew! Its a different feeling when you’re used to using that inbox for a time. You tend to type the same password as if your fingers are in automatic mode. Oh well, at least I was able to send the disclaimer to all my yahoo contacts.

Thank you once again to Maiylah of Maiylah’s Snippets;BK of Symphony of Love’s Blog; Myrna of WTF Do you Block About!?; Timi of Crimson Heavens; and Ana of  Chica & Pumuckl - 2 Egyptian Kitties in Germany. And to my sis and cousins who immediately called my attention to this. You really are good friends and “angels” sent to lend a helping hand ! God bless you always!!

Ahhh!!!! My yahoo account has been hacked!!

I just received a call from my relative about me being in a hold-up in London. It’s a good thing they called me up immediately to confirm. I wasn’t able to check my mails last night because of a brown-out.

Thanks BK, Timi and Ana for your comment. I’ve been too trusting. It was my second time to receive a message about the yahoo alert. The first one was from my friend sent through the yahoo messenger. Then when I received a yahoo mail about it, I thought it was for real.

For those you who would contact me through my email account at yahoo, please don’t send it there anymore for I cannot open it now. My username and password have been invalid. I have tried several times and it won’t open.

AHHHHHHGGGGGGH!!!! I can’t inform my friends and relatives whose email addresses are in there!

Please be careful!

For those using yahoo, this message is for you too.

I got this email at lunchtime today. Here are the details:

I’ve been tagged by Maiylah to do this meaningful tag. It’s a meme highlighting the threat of breast cancer and how important it is to practice early detection procedures like self breast examination.

I would like to tag:

Scraps of Mind and Symphony of Love

It’s ALL SOULS’ DAY today. We pay respect and remember our dearly departed loved ones.

Every year, we say special prayers for souls when this day would come. Some may say the souls don’t need prayers anymore, but they do. It may be just a tradition to others, but there is a deeper meaning when we really say prayers for the souls.

The priests say that when one dies, a soul moves to a place called purgatory. This is a temporary waiting area for the soul. This is where life lived by the individual is screened, analyzed and is later given the go signal whether to go up to heaven or down below.

To make a vivid picture, [Note: This is in my point of view, ok? =) ]

–>imagine a soul as applying for a housing space in heaven (Remember, Jesus promised us that everyone will have a house prepared for us up there in heaven). Each soul has a blank form and are still waiting to be interviewed by St. Peter and his team.

The location of the house being applied for is in heaven.

Every good comment we say here on earth about our dearly departed loved one, his/her form in purgatory gets filled up. Every prayer we say for the soul’s intention, the form gets substance.

Now, what about the souls which belong to those people who have not been prayed for? That’s why there are prayer warriors here on earth. They pray for the souls of those who have been forgotten by their own families.

So, right before the names of our dearly departed are called by St. Peter, we should have said plenty, plenty of prayers for them already. This is for the benefit of the soul… so that when St. Peter opens the Book of Life, looks at each entry and compares it with the prayers and comments that appear in the form, the application to heaven would be approved. A special house will be assigned for our departed loved one.

So, let us always try to remember to say a little prayer for them, especially on occasions like this. =) Each soul in purgatory needs a little push from us who are still living on earth.

Have you said your prayers for them?
