Thought For Days

Admiration not Envy
Very fortunate is the one who has learned to admire, but not to envy. To envy others neither diminishes their good fortune nor increases your own.

The Best
The best ornament is Humility. The richest wealth is Wisdom. The strongest weapon is Patience. The best security is Faith. The best tonic is Laughter.

The Truth About Illusion
Illusion is the idea that people should be, and do, what we want them to. The truth is, all is as it should be, despite appearances or our perceptions of others to the contrary.

Serenity and Spiritual Beauty
Beauty comes with self acceptance, self love and self awareness. Self knowledge is equivalent to truth which brings serenity and spiritual beauty.

Meditation
Though the mind often asks for what is visible or material, its needs are deeper and cannot be met by anything superficial or short term. Meditation leads to a meeting point with all that is true and eternal.

Seeing Things Truly
We tend to see things not as they are, but as we are. Becoming quiet and simple inside is the first step towards seeing things truly.

Self-confidence
Self-confidence is to know your way around yourself so instinctively that you always have a strength to draw on. Somewhere inside, from the stillness, you always find something that can meet your need.

Good Wishes
The more good wishes and kind feelings we have for others, the more our own happiness increases.

Just Having Fun
Work without happiness is like a burden that you have to endure, but when you are internally happy it becomes a game, and you're just having fun.

Harmony
Even when another person seems a world apart from you: find a bridge.

Give Up the Habit of Worrying
As we grow in strength in our spiritual life, we give up the habit of worrying. It serves no purpose other than to make us feel tense and miserable. When I stop fretting about things that are beyond my control and focus instead on generating optimistic and kind thoughts, my life can begin to flow in ever more positive directions. Such a light and easy approach to life enables me to take everything in my stride.

Cooking and Eating
Cook and eat with powerful vibrations. By placing great importance on cooking and eating with loving and peaceful vibrations, you will nourish both mind and body.

Enthusiasm
Enthusiasm frees the self from obstacles and brings benefit to all.

My Working Life

It's been 6 months I have been working in an audit firm here. 6 months is like a long period. A lot of things to do during some period and sometimes nothing to do. Just like these few weeks. I had been doing nothing but just bring my textbook to office to study. But, in the end, I just flip at the same page and talk with my colleague. Hoping the time pass by faster.

Last week, my manager informed us that some of us may go to Bintulu to work. Then few days later, me and some of my colleagues were told by our senior to prepare ourselves to go to Bintulu. May be for 2 weeks. Haii.. What a surprise.. This may be my first time outstation for work if we really get that. Till now, we still not sure if we will get it or not. Bintulu.. 2 weeks.. I am sure that I will miss home.

Besides that, I was told also if my colleague doesn't want to go to KK to audit, I will replace her to go. A surprise again. This time also 2 weeks. But, in KK. I have to handle one company account in 2 weeks. Haii.. Again.. For me, it may be good. Since I can learn more things and explore to other places. But, I have to away from home for 2 weeks. No time to study for my December exam. As I have many assignment to rush which due in December. Hope I can finish it on time.

Now, I just pray that anything will go smoothly and accordingly. Plus oil.. ^^v

...

Today when I was In the office starting to work, my collegue told us that my boss' dad ( Ah Gong) had just passed away this morning. All of us just shocked when hearing this new as in our opinion Ah Gong was a strong old man. For us he was healthy and he talked in strength. The age od Ah Gong wwas around 80++. It's a big number.

Ah Gong reminded me about my grandpa. If he was not dea because of that accident, I think he would have still be with us. I missed him. Missed his cooking, talking, his movies collections and so on. I think when he was young he was a good-looking guy. He was tall and strong. He was a farmer. He planted and sold vegetables in the market. I still remembered when I was young, I always help him to water the vegetables and accompany my father to drive my grandpa to the market.

He liked go out using the bus. He would walk to the bus stop that near my house and go to market to sell his vegetables and buy the daily things. Moreover, when in the evening, he would go out to have a walk after the dinner. He would go to the shop to buy some junk food for us. Me, my brother and my sister would always asked him to buy us junk food. He sure will buy for us.

I still remembered that day when he was not at home. We all went out to search for him. All the bus stop and bus stand. But we didn't go to that park which we passed through that time. We never think that he will go there as he never been there before. Some people saw him but they didn't recognise and know that he was my grandpa. Till now, I still dunno how he walked from home to that park. The last indo maid is who I put the blame on. She is the one who made my grandpa to go out to look for. She is the reason why my grandpa go out at the evening and never come back home.

But, maybe this is the faith. Faith that my grandpa passed away so early. Faith that we need to learn how to deal with the pain and loss. Everyone need to go through the process. I think it's up to us on how well we deal with it. Forgive and forget. Maybe it's really hard to forgive than forget.

Thought For Days

Truly Content
Contentment is a great virtue, though it may not attract one's attention at first. Those who are truly content are usually quiet about it. It is a pleasure to be in their company, because they are full, peaceful, and generous.

Expand My Heart
To welcome an enemy is to take the opportunity to expand my heart.

Strength To Continue
Determination brings the strength to continue, the steadiness to succeed, and the wisdom to slip past difficulties undisturbed.

Acceptance

Accepting others unconditionally allows them to remove their masks and feel at ease with who they are. The security of being accepted gives them the freedom to be themselves and then lets them easily know and accept themselves too.

The Quality of Mercy
A person with the quality of mercy works on such a subtle level that the support given never demeans or implies weakness in the other person.

Motivate Yourself
It's a tough life. Some days its hard to get out of bed and get going. Why? How come our levels of enthusiasm seem to fall so easily? Why can't we get ourselves motivated? Simple really. We try to reverse the energy flow in a universe where all energy is radiating outwards. We try to break one of the spiritual laws. We are taught that winning and achieving is about getting and keeping, when the truth is that it is about giving. Winners are go givers not go-getters, and their definition of winning is not getting one over on the other guy, but overcoming their inertia and giving something of themselves to someone or something other than themselves. This reverses the flow of energy from outside in, to inside out, and as we all know, the deepest satisfaction in life comes from giving.

Filled With Treasures
All human beings have a place inside which is filled with treasures; be still and you will find it.

Be Creative
Every day is an opportunity to be creative - the canvas is your mind, the brushes and colours are your thoughts and feelings, the panorama is your story, the complete picture a work of art called, 'my life'. Be careful what you put on the canvas today - it matters.

Too Much Thinking
The biggest disease of the mind is over-thinking, especially too much thinking about others.Thinking too much is like eating too much. The heaviness makes it impossible to remain light and flexible.

Radiate Happiness
Have you ever noticed that happiness is not a dependency, it is a decision? You don't actually need anything to be happy. It's not something that comes from outside, it comes from inside, and when you radiate a happy energy you'll be amazed what it attracts into your life. Don't worry, be happy...sound familiar? Decide now, be happy, and watch magic begin to enter your life.

Thoughts, Words and Deeds
Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.

I asked GOD...

I asked God to take away my habit.

God said, No.

It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up.

I asked God to make my handicapped child whole.

God said, No.

His spirit is whole, his body is only temporary

I asked God to grant me patience.

God said, No.

Patience is a byproduct of tribulations;

it isn't granted, it is learned.

I asked God to give me happiness.

God said, No.

I give you blessings;

Happiness is up to you.

I asked God to spare me pain.

God said, No.

Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me.

I asked God to make my spirit grow.

God said, No.

You must grow on your own,

but I will prune you to make you fruitful.

I asked God for all things that I might enjoy life.

God said, No.

I will give you life,

so that you may enjoy all things.

I asked God to help me LOVE others, as much as He loves me.

God said.......Ahhhh,finally you have the idea.

'To the world you might be one person, But to one person you just might be the world'

'Good friends are like stars...

You don't always see them, But you know they are always there.'

A Letter to Him..

Hi dad,

How are u there? Hope that u r sitting beside God and Jesus watching us from the heaven. Not like what grandma say keep seeing u around the house.

I think it's been a long long time I never sit down to have a talk with u. I think since u were sick. I never think of wanna write this letter to u. But this few days i suddenly have the urge to write this and talk with u. Last week was ur day. I had went to ur rest place to visit u. It's been 3 years already. Still miss the day u r around.

I had been thinking many things since then. I always asked myself last time when I went to KL to further my studies was I really wanna runaway from u and the problems in our family. We always have fights among each other. Quarrels when we were angry. There was seldom have peace in the family. So I decide to went to KL to study. Running away from all the madness. I think I never tell all of you the reason.

Actually, I was angry with u and God during those days. I always ask God why u have this sickness. Because u were sick I had never go out with family, taking photoes with family and so on. Mum became the man of the family. She had to carried all the burden of the family and take care of the family and u. But, u always dunnno hoe to thanks her. Always make her angry. U r suppose to protect the family and mum. But, now mum becomes the protector.

As for God, I felt like He never listen to my prays since u were sick. He always says He will rescue and helps those who pray to Him. But then He never do so. He didn't cure u and let u be healthier. He always made u in pain.

Now, I had change my minds about u and God. From ur sickness, I think I have learnt a lot. We all have grown up and more mature. We had become more independent. Try our best in our studies. I think u r proud with us. A bi has further studies to Canada. Study at his favourire university and subject. As for a sze, she has improve herself in her studies. Be more mature in her life. As for pei lin, I think she has become more mature. But we all still worry about her. Always remind her to be careful. Haha..

Dad, actually I got a question to ask u. Are u really still around us? Grandma always says she always see u around. Driving her around, eating and talking with her. I always wonder the reason why u don't appear in front of us or in dreams. Talk with us. Haha..

Ok la.. Wanna stop writing here. Hope u r happy and healthy everyday. Bye..

Thought For Days

Friendship
Anyone with a heart full of friendship has a hard time finding enemies.

Making a Life
We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.

In Silence and Stillness
In the silence of my being, in the stillness of peace, I ponder the greatness of my existence, and the truly endless love and power I have within me.

Dance In Happiness
The easy way to remain happy is to remain constantly light. Pure thoughts are light and waste thoughts are heavy. Therefore, keep your intellect busy with pure thoughts and you will become light and continue to dance in happiness.

Contentment
Remain content by recognizing the benefit of every moment - and the beauty of every soul.

Imperishable Wealth
The wealth of a rich man can be stolen or burnt, but the happiness and wisdom of the wise remain.

Fragrant Heart
The heart is like a flower - unless it is open it cannot release its fragrance into the world.

Diamond Consciousness
When you look at the world through your physical eyes, you will see all the facets of our diversity: culture, race, personality, religion and so on. Seeing only through your physical eyes, it is easy to become stubborn and to try to prove yourself right. However where there is stubbornness there is no love. And trying to prove the self right is equally offensive. A diamond will sparkle even in the dust; you do not ever need to prove that you are right. In the face of the dangers that come from seeing only with the physical eyes, always think: now is the time to go beyond all divisions, beyond all that limits us and our sense of self. Whatever the race, the religion, the class - our consciousness now has to go beyond all of that.

Learn a Lesson
Instead of being afraid of situations, consider them to be your teacher and learn a lesson from them.
