Make your circumstances

People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if, if they can't find them, make them.

(George Bernard Shaw)

Perseverance

Perseverance is not a long race. It is many short races, one after another.

Locomotive at PJ Hilton

I went to PJ Hilton to meet up with World Vision ambassador, Jerry Yan, and also MY FM DJ, Phoebe. On my way back, I saw this mock up and found it very interesting.

Club 99

Once upon a time, there lived a King who, despite his luxurious lifestyle, was neither happy nor content.

One day, the King came upon a servant who was singing happily while he worked. This fascinated the King; why was he, the Supreme Ruler of the Land, unhappy and gloomy, while a lowly servant had so much joy?

The King asked the servant, "Why are you so happy?" The man replied, "Your Majesty, I am nothing but a servant, but my family and I don't need too much - just a roof over our heads and warm food to fill our tummies."

The king was not satisfied with that reply. Later in the day, he sought the advice of his most trusted advisor. After hearing the King's woes and the servant's story, the advisor said, "Your Majesty, I believe that the servant has not been made a part of Club 99."

"Club 99? And what exactly is that?" the King inquired. The advisor replied, "Your Majesty, to truly know what Club 99 is, place 99 gold coins in a bag and leave it at this servant's doorstep."

When the servant saw the bag, he took it into his house. When he opened the bag, he let out a great shout of joy! So many gold coins! He began to count them. After several counts, he was at last convinced that there were 99 coins.

He wondered, "What could've happened to that last gold coin? Surely, no one would leave 99 coins!" He looked everywhere he could, but that final coin was elusive. Finally, exhausted, he decided that he was going to have to work harder than ever to earn that gold coin and complete his collection.

From that day, the servant's life was changed. He was overworked, horribly grumpy, and castigated his family for not helping him make that 100 th gold coin. He stopped singing while he worked.

Witnessing this drastic transformation, the King was puzzled. When he sought his advisor's help, the advisor said, "Your Majesty, the servant has now officially joined Club 99."

He continued, "Club 99 is a name given to those people who have enough to be happy but are never contented, because they're always yearning and striving for that extra 1 telling themselves, "Let me get that one final thing and then I will be happy for life ."

We can be happy, even with very little in our lives, but the minute we're given something bigger and better, we want even more! We lose our sleep, our happiness, we hurt the people around us; all these as a price for our growing needs and desires. That's what joining Club 99 is all about."

Give life the best shot and the best will come to you!!!

Philips Chen 's Wedding Dinner

Finally, witnessed one of my close friend, Philip Chen's wedding. When I first see the "e-card", the venue is held at Maya Hotel, just wonder where this hotel is until I gotta know it was previously Park Plaza Hotel.

I just came back from Port Dickson trip. Though a bit tired, I was happy to see most of the ex-colleagues there.

生命中的每一天

我对佛许愿:愿你永远快乐,佛说不行,只能四天。我说春天、夏天、秋天、冬天。佛愣:两天。我笑:黑田、白天。佛惊:一天!我笑:生命中的每一天!

加油!

平静的海洋锻炼不出真正的水手。相同的,人生的路途必然不会都是顺境。生活中的困苦和一次又一次的挣扎,那层层的波浪,正是体悟与进取的机会。加油!

贫贱之辈

国君骄傲则失去他的封国,国务官骄傲则失去他的家族。失国的人,再没有国;失家的人,再没有家。像我们这些贫贱之辈,建言不被采纳,行为不和主人的要求,那可简单了,穿上鞋子就走,反正走到哪里都是一样贫贱。

赶路的人

这时,我像车上许多长途跋涉的赶路人一样,疲惫地依靠座位,不过身心的倦怠却抵不住翻绞的思想。眼睛一闭,我让思潮如脱缰的野马奔驰在一些遥远的时光里。

心中的郁郁情伤

古今往来的文人雅士,总是有许多无酒不欢的。酒能激发他们的文思雅趣,酒能抒发他们的百转愁肠,他们借诗高歌传唱,唱出深藏于心中的郁郁情伤。

承诺

太多的承诺,让人觉得不切实际而失去信心。承诺,必须付诸行动实践,而不是信口开河。机会使自己争取的,当你取得机会,切记你对别人的承诺。

忙与盲

每当听见这首歌,心情就会非常纳闷。我们是否“盲目”地“盲从”一些现实生活中的规律,而变得很“忙”,却忘记了其实身边有一些很美好的事情,待我们去发掘?

Backpack

我身边有一位很勇敢的朋友,一个人孤身到中国,柬埔寨和越南去“backpack”。本想跟他一起去,但却做不到,因为我还要工作。终于,我还是向现实低头了!

前途?钱途?

工作、工作!工作是为了“前途”?还是为了“钱途”?为了“钱”,就得放弃“前”?

人生蒙太奇

人的一生有太多的选择,有时难免会有点不知所措;然而,事情并不会两全其美,有得必有失。寻寻觅觅,到底,我是否应该追求最初的梦想,还是为现实生活而低头?人生蒙太奇!

It does matters

Failure is nothing more than a few errors in judgement repeated everyday. Why do we do that? It's because we don't think it matters. A minor oversight, an hour wasted, a poor decision usually don't result in an instant and measurable impact. But it DOES MATTERS.

Level of deserve

Life is not designed to give rewards in proportion to our level of need, it gives us in proportion to our level of deserve.

快乐是一种心情

“快乐”是一种心情,它不在天涯、不在海角,无序追寻;它就在我们的心中:是一种心灵上的满促和快乐。愿你能在每天繁忙的生活中,拥有它!

是否应该被原谅?

人,总有软弱的时候。当人因为软弱而受不住七情六欲的诱惑,是否应该被原谅?
