Nothing Last Forever.....

Best memories are most of the time while we are still young and small. There's always a look back when we grew older and find ourselves so much happier during growing years. No matter how many unhappy or happy fond memories, it will still be something fodn in our mind.

Things changes so fast as we grew, nothing last forever. Things happen and dissapeared. People come and go. Medals won and kept. Friends found and kept but sometimes lost. Nothing would last forever at the end of the day.

It is how much we cheerish the current moments would enable us to have more fond and happy memories to be kept aside as we grew older. While we are so buzy thinking of accumulating more and more thing in life. There are also things which we have left behind while we are so engross in climbing up the ladder. Sometimes, we forget and left those things behind us.

How many of us would have memories where we hope it could be played llike a movie on our TV. The are moments when we are so tired and just to hope for some relax moment. A moment of truth by looking back what we have been through to being us to where we are. Also to realised who to thank, what helped us and what challenges we've been through to reached here now. It would be best if it could be played in a movie.

Food for thought of the day:
Find some time to sit down all alone and reflect what has happened for the past one year or few years. Think about what has happened and what brought us where we are now. Do this at least once a year. This could help us in finding our path along the way towards our goals in life.

Found some feel in writing this blog after watching a Hong Kong movie "Echoes Of The Rainbow". Great movie being seen from a child's perpective and things been through in his life as a child.

The Fine Line : Reality & Fact

There's always this saying "Do not look at what we don't have, instead make the most out of what we have".


Humans are such a cute creature where we always feel we have not got enough of what we have. When you said you have enough, there are someone out there who would tell you "why would you limit yourself to only what you have, you should strike more". Come to think about it, isn't the sentence true? Another person will come up and say "You are not grateful to what you have by always complaining not having enough and want more". Once again, isn't this sentence make sense as well.

However, there is always this fine line that most of us would not see. Some may knew bout it but choose to ignore it. Not limiting our own self in achieving more and not complaining what we lack of is in between a fine line. The line is called, REALITY and FACT. No matter how much and how loud we would want to complain, nothing would happen if no action is being taken. This is a fact. At the same time, we also knew that, if we keep on limit ourselves in telling we cant achieve this and that, it is guaranteed that we are not going to achieve anything at all. The reality is anything is achieveable if we persist until the last drop of our energy.

Our challenge is always not being able to differentiate this fine line. To work this out, differentiation between "Controlable" and "Uncontrolable" is highly important. We have to always want to strike to achieve as much as we can using all the resources and items that we have a control of. At the same time, stop complaining on all things we lack of as this would be items we are unable to control.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT OF THE DAY:
1. Close our eyes and heart on items that we can not change. Hence, we always appreciate all things we have at the current moment. (Eg: I cant be rich because my parents are not rich and not educated)

2. Open up our wisdom and heart for all items that we could change. This would enable us to push ourselves to another level for greater success. (Eg: I can earn as much as I want even though I am not from a rich family background.)

3. When confuse or unsure, take a pen and pull a a piece of white paper. Divide it into two side and write down our challenge in the top middle. Next, write down all things that we could control on the left hand side and all things uncontrolable on the right hand side.

4. Read and compare. Voila, you would be able to find the most suitable solution to you at that point of time.

It's Always Easy To Point Finger At Others

"I just don't understand why they have nothing at all" ~ "He should be responsible, he is the one who make that big mistake!".

Some how these are very common things we would hear from people around us. It is always easier to point fingers at others whenever problems kick in. Whether what has been claimed is true or not, that does not matter. Most of the time it's all about who said it first, who said it loudest, who re-told the story that make more logical sense, and who have more people to pity for. Our daily lives are revolve around onto this small yet important matters.

Pointing without investigating or even asking is a very dangerous move. Even an investigation with a certain impression in mind would not help any much either. How many times have we raise our anger and just point our fingers onto someone when something happened, to only find out we have blame the wrong person?

Sometimes a sorry will delete off the memory, but some the scar will be there forever no matter how many sorry we said. At times, it may not be scar, but an impact so great that could affect the rest of the life of a person. All these are so subtle that no one would know whats going to happen in the future.

Sometime ago I heard from a radio station, "Allow someone who is in a hurry to pass by while on the road, because you never know the person maybe in a hurry to get his wife to the hospital as a new born is knocking on the womb for freedom". Most often we would just curse in our car while we are driving when we come across this situation and asking why are they moving so fast for. This could be different if we could be seeing things from another point of view.

Food for thought of the day: "Whatever comes up, take a deep breath and count to from 1 - 10. Calm down and relax ourselves. Then, see things from another point of view and try to resolve the current situation rather than to point fingers. Find out where went wrong and ensure no one would repeat it again. Hence, voila, a new knowledge would be learnt by everyone in the situation. "

Long Absent.... But More Focus....

Wow, it has been a long time since my last drop of sentence over here in my blog. It's time to come back for real good. This wil also be my first for Year 2010. So what have I missed:-

1. Year 2010 Resolution - I still have it in my book, just that it is not publish. Guess it's time to relook again on what I have jot down since the first half of the year is soon to be over.

2. Places & Food - Been to quite another few places while at work. Have not got a chance to take photos of those and put it up here....

Well not too much that I have missed though.

Something just strike my mind today after my CFP exam paper this evening when I am back home. While exam is over, it seems as though there's another thing in my life that has gone missing. Although there would be another module to go, however that would be something for the month of December 2010 to think about. Anyhow, this is going to end at the end of the day.

Shoulders seems always lighter everytime when a tack is complete. However, while there one task complete, sometimes we would be thinking what's next. This would not be the case, if we would know what else that we should look out for after one task is completed.

We always wanted so many things in our life, however we fail to realise that we must be able to have our next plan ready before our current task complete. Hence, our path would be full of colors and activities without having a vacum left unfilled. Realising that this would be the fact of life, I have start up something that I have been thinking for long time.

With a small little note pad, I will jot down all the small things that I want to do. This would enable me to stay focus on things that paint my life with more colours. Besides, it serves as a reminder for me to do things that I need. I have started this for my work, but never for my personal to do list items. Now it is up. Yeah!!!!

If any of you who are reading this, start one of yours now. Make sure there's always two different set; one for work and one for personal. It is always good to different work with our personal items.

"Think is good, start doing it is GREAT!!! "
