The mermaid, the turtle and the moon

Some time ago in 2005, I had a wallpaper that i stole from deviantArt. I can't recall the artist. But it was a beautiful piece of art. It shows the sea, a mermaid, a turtle and a beautiful night.

What interesting was, the mermaid had rose above the sea water, and she was almost touching the moon. While the turtle, which is still in the water, was trying to reach above the sea water. It was almost as though the turtle wanted to be like the mermaid, to be able to reach the moon.

I have a friend who always strive to do the best, in fact, to BE the best. I told that friend about my wallpaper. Today, he tried to call me but he couldn't reach me. So, he left me a message. And this is what he said (sorry bro):
Remember you told me about the story of the turtle that struggled to make it to the surface of the water? And you told me to be the mermaid rather than the turtle? I think I'm becoming the mermaid! I just got the highest mark in my last posting exams. Good start for a final year!
THAT, felt REALLY GOOD. It was a story I told years ago, and he had taken it WAY seriously! I'm glad the mermaid and the turtle became an inspiration to him. Come to think of it, I could use some inspiration now. So, I tried to dig all my CDs and DVDs to see if I still have a softcopy of it. I couldn't find it. I guess, my laptop has been formatted a lil TOOO many times!

It was a masterpiece. And it became inspiration. And although you'll never be as gorgeous as the mermaid Chee Eng, you'll be a GREAT DOCTOR. I know.
