Walking Along Corniche Abu Dhabi

I had a one week vacation but pretty much spent in walking around the city and going to Malls. But there is just this one day, that I have spent the whole morning walking along Corniche under extreme sunlight taking shots from my D10 Canon underwater cam. I was able to take few photos which I find interesting and posted it under my multiply account - http://sophiesfotografi.multiply.com/

Here are some of the shots I have taken.

  I just love the way this pigeon looked towards as if he knew I was taking a photo of him.

The Leaves



At the end of my long walk, I rested my tired feet and sat on a bench along the beach side area in Corniche. Collected my thoughts and wrote down my feelings.

At The Edge

I'm staring across the ocean,
Wondering what I want my life to be,
Trying to see clearly my future,
Which seems to be bleak and scary.

I am uncertain of my direction in life now,
I cannot understand the path I need to take,
All I know is that I'm on this bench clearing my thoughts,
Staring across the calm ocean,
Asking nature to help me find my way.

Sometimes, words will come to me unexpectedly and it is something I have developed in my stay in the UAE. Glad to have explored the Corniche Area.

Words of Wisdom from Fr. Jerry Orbos

Just some words of wisdom that I heard from Fr. Jerry Orbos during the TV mass last January 09.  He said, "never take anyone or anything too serviously."

He mentioned 4 things to remember and live by --

1)  Money can be earned.

2)  Stupid quarrels can be resolved.

3)  Life of a loved one is irreplaceable.

4)  Lost of your soul is your greatest failure.

I thank God for these words to help me through my stay here in UAE.
