I had met many kinds of people in my life. With many different kinds of personality and characters. Most of the people that I met up with are usually brooding over their work or family. Or over little issue like been bitten by a mosquito. I am mostly on the listening part and then later on, advisory.
I am not a perfect person and certainly the planet is so huge that there are still many places or insects that I haven’t yet seen or encountered. So I might not be the one who can say or judge about one’s circumstances. But sometimes I was really trying to help by saying some positive things that I knew but I will only taste the attitude like; “you are not in my shoes so you know nothing about these..” That’s the most excruciating statement which I am so used to hear from this kind. So from there I’d always thought to myself, “Come on, it’s not the end of the world… What’s the worst that could happen?”
Nature always takes her time. I mean mostly time will heal and grow. Diamonds aren’t formed in a week and everything of value, of beauty, of majesty in the universe took time to become so. In the real world there are very few instant, overnight successes. It takes times to build a business of value or to create financial independence.
So it will be with our growth and development. We need to keep a balance as does the rest of nature. Need to rest and recuperate, as do all other living things. Let’s be gentler on ourselves when assessing our own progress and recognise how the way things work. It takes time to build confidence and a healthy body, or a positive outlook. There will always be easy times and there will be hard times. We can learn from this approach. We need to take out time to rest, to review, to ponder and to be.
If you decide that you are indispensable and that you must always have your nose on a grindstone, then you can live your life like that. Your belief that you can never rest will be your reality until such time as you decide differently. When we do make rest a part of our lifestyle, we become so much more productive when we work. But things will get better like they always do. The trouble is that too many people give up and go home too early.
The tide will always turn, as there will be changes on their perspectives when the right time comes.

Laws and principles of the universe are affecting our lives every minute. Like, we are generally aware of the law of gravity. We observe what gravity does to old houses and old people; they sag and sometimes fall down. We accept that laws govern the orbiting of the planets, the cycle of tides and changes of the seasons.
If we poke our fingers into a light socket we become particularly aware of electricity. We may not see it but there is a strong evidence to suggest its existence. Magnetism is a similar story in that we accept it although we don’t see it. Principles which are invisible help to shape our lives.
The remarkable thing that many people believe that everything in the universe is governed by the law except when it comes to their own lives and their own success or lack of it, and then they talk to fate, chance or misfortune. Well, you are part of the universe and your life is governed by law as absolutely as the moon and the stars and the weeds in your front garden. And you are the cause of what happens in your life. You are cause by your own thoughts.
Reality is actually created by the mind. We can change our reality by changing our minds. May sounds true but there will always be those people who say, nothing works, nothing matters, nothing makes any difference and life stinks! They might have perspectives of not knowing the reasons why things won’t work just because they’ve never tried it. With an open mind to possibility, there may be things about the universe that one haven’t fully figured out yet. As a child you probably once thought that the earth was flat. When you recieved more information on the subject you may have been prepared to change your ideas.
We should embrace the concepts herein, not just believing anything just because it’s written or seen and rather make our own assessment. For a man’s life is what his thoughts make of it.

One of the non sequitur event in the newspaper was stating; “wife being punched by a husband resulting from external force and indecent..” So most of the women who reads that will understands the pain of that wife and are mostly tossing curses on that husband. “spilling water on the couch has cause the husband to enraged and causing hurt to her..” Unless that is a couch for the kings and queens, or rather an extremely expensive one made by the skin of a tiger, one might brood over that kinda shitty thingy i ‘d supposed. But who on earth would hit a woman for that? (more…)

Life is unfair and we all know because all good things will come to an end eventually. And most of the time we are envious of certain things in some people lives that we can’t achieve. But of course we wholeheartedly still feels fortunate enough to know that we have got the things that some people doesn’t has at all. So i was reminded of all these when i was at the hospital today. A hospital for children or infants.
I start to understand that whatever things that happens to the adults, the child is always, however, innocent and helpless. (more…)

Remembering what the folks says when i was a little boy; “always be grateful of the things i had in life..” I was told to say grace and prayers to be thankful for everything, and all the other things that i took for granted… (more…)
