It’s approximately 30mins pass 5am in the morning, and our eyelids were heavy then. We came to a quiet town, unaccustomed and bizarre, the feeling was kinda odd. Maybe we were all too weary to be still and awake at that moment, or perhaps the morning draught in the breath we took was awkward.

The air and the atmosphere, the aspect of the villages were in a form of unfamiliarity. Even the mosquitoes were hyperactive. We could still somehow understand the basic of their native language which is Malay, though the form have some difference compared to Singapore. So we could had ourselves the tremendously sweetening coffee served by the morning stall at sight. (more…)

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.

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.

When i was a little boy, i used to sit in front of my mother’s dressing table. Not to brush my hair nor was i doing any makeup. I was then holding a low account pencil, with the tip stroking up and down on the exercise book which i had got from school. My mum would allow me to keep them in that drawer beneath her dressing table. For everyday after school i will get home quick and shower myself, ate something and sat there for a couple of hours just for drawing.

I start to understand that whatever things that happens to the adults, the child is always, however, innocent and helpless. (more…)

I saw them in the magazines and television show all the time. But seeing them live face to face on their needlework is the first. Amazing. (more…)
