Katy Perry - Thinking of You promos|Katy Perry - Thinking of You promos stills |Katy Perry - "Thinking of You" (2009)promos wallpapers
Here’s something that so many people have been waiting for and it’s certainly been worth the wait. Katy Perry’s “Thinking of You” promos are certainly creating quite a stir. It’s almost classic in regard to presentation, and the photography is worth a mention, and boy, she sure does look pretty. With all the different sets being so beautifully blended there’s little left to imagination. She takes you right through the video and makes you feel the pain. You identify with her loneliness and sadness and she certainly looks the part of the lonely pretty girl trying to move on. Despite all the sadness that’s being portrayed, you won’t fail to recognize the $exy undertone.
Inspiration
Courage
It takes fear to produce courage. The "brave" knight who charges off on his trusty steed to smite the dragon, thinking not of danger is hardly very courageous.The terrified messenger who brings the dragon an invitation to dual the "brave" knight, shows much more courage.
What makes somebody courageous?
It is how we deal with fear. It is OK to feel fear. Everybody does.
You can show courage by doing what you know you should do in spite of your fear.
But it doesn't mean you need to be as stupid as the penguin...

Trekking the Himalayas
Sunday Herald Sun
By Allan Thompson
 |
FEAR. It's not something I usually like to associate with my holidays.
But there was no mistaking the feeling churning away in the pit of my stomach. It was genuine fear.
Struggling for each breath at the 4000m altitude, legs feeling like logs from lack of oxygen and aching after days of tough trekking, I was following a narrow, winding and brutally steep yak track on the side of a mountain with what seemed like a sheer vertical drop to the rugged valley thousands of metres below.
And when I thought it couldn't get any worse, suddenly the yak track disappeared.
A landslide had obliterated it. I could see it started up again 10m ahead. But to get back on to it, I would have to scramble over loose rubble on the side of the mountain, with nothing seemingly between me and the abyss below. It did occur to me then that I might die there.
Physical and mental challenges
It was neither the first nor the last time I felt fear on our 12-day trek through the Jugal Himal range in Nepal and perhaps, in retrospect, the Himalayas should not be attempted by those like me who suffer from vertigo.
On the other hand, what we saw and experienced, the physical and mental challenges we overcame, the mind-numbing beauty, the sickness, the wilderness, the danger, the exhilaration and ultimately, the triumph, will live with us forever.
Unlike a lot of tourists to Nepal, we decided to stay clear of the adventure companies, the Annapurna range, the teahouses and crowds that so characterise the Nepal trekking experience for Western tourists.
Instead we booked with a local trekking outfit, More Than Mountain Treks, one of 700 local trekking companies that operate in the country.
Our brief to the company was simple: to trek in an area away from the main trails and tourists where we could meet locals and experience the real Nepal.
True to their word, the company organised just such an experience, a walk to the five sacred lakes at Panch Pokhari.
During the entire 12-day trek we saw only two other westerners – and that was on the first day. In fact, so remote was our route that for seven of the days, it was just our party of five and our dozen porters.
We ate what the porters could carry and camped wherever we could find something resembling flat ground.
We walked through beautiful terraced farms and villages, along spectacular valleys and rugged ridges, past Buddhist shrines and temples, through fir and rhododendron forests, over swing bridges and logs that crossed crashing rivers, past countless spectacular waterfalls, through snow and ice and along tracks that were sometimes wide and gentle, but at other times narrow and demanding great daring. Indeed, on one day we lost the track for a couple of hours, its lack of use, the snow, ice and rugged vegetation all conspiring to conceal it.
Paying the price
We crashed through bush, thistles and thorns, slipped on rocks and ice, froze on some nights and sweated profusely during the heat of the day and either climbed or descended, but never, it seemed, did we walk on flat land.
We were warmly welcomed by the locals we met at the start and end of the trek, marvelled at how they eked out a subsistence existence on the steepest and most hostile of land, negotiated to camp on disused vegetable and rice paddies at the front of their homes, devoured breakfast one morning as we watched a group of men slaughter a sheep and then prepare it for that night's meal and felt slightly embarrassed as we walked past their modest, open homes always followed by loads of curious and laughing children.
However, not all of our interactions with the locals were friendly. On the last day of the trek, only an hour from our finish, we were stopped by a group of opportunistic youths who wouldn't let us pass unless we paid a "toll" to use the track. After a tense stand-off and negotiation, we parted with the equivalent of $30 to continue.
Some of us became sick, we all lost weight and became much fitter. Rarely did we have time to reflect on anything too much. We were totally in the moment and forced to give in to the rhythm of the trek.
And when, after the first five days of climbing we stood at 4500m atop the ridge of Panch Pokhari – with nothing between us and the Jugal Himal range of the mighty Himalayas, with its towering peaks and glaciers spread before us in every direction in all its awe-inspiring majesty, nothing mattered at all. Not fear, tiredness, blisters or sickness.
Just us and the greatest view on earth.

TEMPER
Temper?
Who’s the boss, you or your temper?
This is an important question, because people who have anger management issues often feel like they are not in control (which they aren’t). Lust for power is generally not considered a good thing. However, control over one’s own actions and reactions, and particularly over one’s temper is an extremely good thing.
Although feeling dejected for having lost control after the temper has subsided is not very useful, feeling determined to keep control before tempers flare is quite useful. The trick is to remind your temper who’s boss before it gets the better of you. You can say to yourself, “I am the boss.” And whatever other lines you need to put temper in its place.
After all, you really are the boss.
Life Quotes
In Harmony...
Have you ever noticed how beautiful a choir is, with all the voices singing as if they were one. But they are not one. It is the ever so slight variations that help make the harmony sound so beautiful. And sometimes, the choir can even sound beautiful when voices are singing in counterpoint.A solo performance can also be incredibly beautiful. So can a duet.
The key is to know when to sing solo and when to sing in harmony. When you are with others, strive to work with them. Be part of something beautiful.
When you are by yourself, be the bestest person you can be. Because you are also beautiful on your own.
Locked?
A locked door keeps others out. But it also keeps you in.
On a cold winter day, you might like to stay inside. You are in shelter, not in prison. However, in prison you might prefer to be able to get out.
What about your heart? What about your friendship. What about you? Are you locked?
Maybe you are trying to keep someone or something out, but perhaps you are keeping yourself in. We can make prisoners of ourselves, but life is pretty short and isn’t it time to set yourself free?
Come on live your life unlocked!
Comfort...|
We are often challenged to leap out of our comfort zone and try something new, to be bold and daring and reach for our dreams.
But there is also a role for comfort, a role that becomes clear on cold winter days such as we have here in the Ukay. In fact, the more we leap out of our comfort zone to try new, daring things, the more we might need those little comforts like hot soup or a soothing shower to keep us grounded.
Comfort is a wonderful thing, as long as it doesn’t make you feel too…comfortable.
"Perfect Vision"
At the corner of my eye
I've seen the vision of love
Where I could be,
With a perfect smile!
Compassion of love,
I felt so deep in love
I felt so deep in love
Still, I admiring you most!
But, how come?
Never met you,
But my feelings,
But my feelings,
Saying its true!
I'm dreaming of you
who's the girl behing in this worlds
But I exactly, describes you
The way I feel you
which I love you
I don't realized
why should I
But yet, I know
What's the answer
every single of my day
You've been a part of me,
I took the place
That where you are
I made my self, completely
Just because...
I love you!

"Friendship"|"Friendship" qoutes
Friendship is not finding the right person, but creating the right relationship, its not how much you love your friend from the beginning, but how much love you build 'till the end.
Of course, in a friendship, bonding doesn't happend only when times together. It also happend when they are apart and their realized that despite the absence, the closeness is still there...
"I want To Know"love, Friendship,
coz i want to be with you
For all times we've been through
i want to hear you, say I love you!
I want to know if you would stay
or you will go away
I don't want to be this way
coz my love for you has no one could pay
I remember the pass
where our friendship last
There was only you and me
we were so happy and free
You wipe away my tears
and help me fight away my fears
You promised through all these years
that here besides me, you'll stay near
I want to know my dear friend
if only friendship will last 'till the end
And if we are together
do you think we would last forever?

LOVE & FRIENDSHIP are different even though both are in same catagory
Hi, thereI feel the LOVE & FRIENDSHIP are different even though both are in same catagory - ATTRACTION or LIKING. Love is the one making the feeling of MISSING. Friendship is the feeling of LIKING. The LOVE happend because of LIKING. I think FRIENDSHIP never make MISSING. The thirst for the caring and to be cared is the LOVE and that feeling comes from the bottom of heart. Friendship never come the same place of heart.A friend can help other without any expectation. A lover will be dedicated to do the work and feels that her or his as own work. Many great things happend just for their LOVE. I dont find any BIG thing for the sake of FRIENDSHIP.Any one agree with me? Please post your view on LOVE & FRIENDSHIP.Regards,-Richard-
