Farming from virtual to reality.

Avid Famville and Happy Farmers gamers, here's something interesting which i read in newsweek.

An entrepreneur from Nanjing has actually opened up a restaurant name Happy Farmers, complete with computer games. There even have "stolen vegetable" on their menu which they serve as free appetisers.

Also there are many urban chinese nationals who pine for their peasent life where things was much simpler. So they go buy a plot of land, plant vegetables and install a video so that they can monitor how the plants grow. That is sure an extravagant way of expressing ur passion.

It's been raining the whole day. Morning rain once, night rain once. But i am just thankful for the rain. I just read an email on the world wide web being evil and assoicated with the numbers 666.

Well we all have to be caution about what we do or portray ourselves on the web. I do agree that there is alot of freedom that can be abused online. The web is just going to keep growing as people finds it more functional and convenient to do things over the internet.

So friends, we (including myself) have to be careful what we are reading, watching or revealing about ourselves.

I remember vaguely reading a newspaper article some years back on an experiment whereby a celebrity was placed in a hotel room with a laptop. The celebrity was to function as per normal, meaning continue to work, eat and shop without leaving the room. I hope we will never reach this stage whereby we lock ourselves up in our own little hole and continue to treasure personal relationships through physically meeting up with people. Continue to come to church, meet with cell and continue to encourage each other.

Have a good weekend!

Meaning of a Boss

What comes to mind when you thing about your boss?

Linda's definition of boss: "I think of someone as being responsible, wise, influential,resourceful and admired."

Well then i checked dictionary.com for their version of a boss
1. "a person who employs or superintends workers; manager. "
2. "a politician who controls the party organization, as in a particular district. "
3. "a person who makes decisions, exercises authority, dominates"
4. "to be master of or over; manage; direct; control. "
5. "to order about, esp. in an arrogant manner. "
6. "to be too domineering and authoritative. "

So which definition would you choose?

When i look at no.5 and no.6., it reminded me of the book Miss Bossy.

My definition is more towards describing character traits of a boss, while the dictionary definition is more towards decribing the job of a boss.

Would you think of God as being your boss?

After all, He is in control over your life. He has more than just the character traits that i descibed. On top of that, He is loving merciful, gracious, generous... ...etc. more than we can ever imagine.

Let's give thanks for a wonderful God!
