Touched by a Little Angel
12 Oct 2005 is like any other ordinary day - but to me and my family, it was a most memorable and extraordinary day because a little angel, clothed in 3.24kg of human flesh, descended from Heaven to Singapore (Lat/Lon: 1.283/103.85), touched and entered our lives at 1029hrs (GMT+08:00).

Xavier's first cry upon touchdown on earth was the most beautiful sound I've ever heard and the moment of beholding him for the very first time was magical!
I was entranced - this despite the fact that there are currently 6.4 billion people on earth and all of them were once babies too.
The reason, I believe, is simple: The value of a human life is intrinsically linked to the unifying Love that begets it... As my wife Lynn and I hold and touch little Xavier, we make contact with the fruit of our Love and understand a little more, the mystery of Life.
