O! my old friend.

It was indeed a surprise , an old friend came in to greet me after he visited my boss. 

My first response to him " how is your back ? He looks surprised but shake his head " no good" but I am able to hike . He looks much fatter and heavier than before and I wish him good luck and health."

He continued to tell me that all his friends he has visited  is already old.  But it is a fact.  If he is already old at 66 , then all his friends should be old unless he prefers younger friends.

I have always says that " age and time waits for no one ". It is a fact but we keep forgetting it and it only takes people to tell us or when we are awaken to this fact after seeing the reality of life.

I have been working for 43 years now in the same company and I am still asking " where have all my years gone /"  It went quietly and silently and in no time , the curtains will fall on me.

A month is like a blink of an eye . Is it that fast ?  Yes, it is like an arrow , fast and swift.

My staff and assistants came and work with me as pretty graduates or school girls but they are now mothers of a few children and some of them is also on the verge of retirement.  If we look back , time have flew by us.  Looking forward , you may not see the speed but looking backwards , you could see the years have gone by you.

The other day , I saw a video telling us to be available for our children instead of building cash returns , it advise us to spend time and build on our relationships.  It is not about money or who we are going to be but to have a loving and compassionate living with all those besides us and have strong personal bondage with them.

Leave beautiful memories behind and let the people in encounter with you in your journey to have beautiful thoughts about the time they have with you.

The basic rule of life never change " birth , age , sickness and death ". The faster we realize and understand it , it will be better for you and the others besides you. 

Namaste.

Like a virgin

This is a title of a song and it means purity and clarity ..  The word vargina depicts the private part of a lady and  if it is intact , the person is call a virgin.  It can also apply to a male and it means the male have not involved in any intercourse before.  

In the ancient China,  these male or female virgins are very much sort after for certain to maintain good health or purity.  In Tibet or Nepal , only a virgin lady can be addressed as a " goddess".  It simply means the utmost purity. 

As I have written before, it is healthy for older man or women to engage in sex with these virgins.  The ancient belief is that these give the older people , the young chi which could help to boost the health of the older people.  But , whether this belief is true or false , there is no scientific proof for this achievements.  Generally, older people feel younger when they are with the young people and this maybe a perception but it is a real feeling. The young chi around them help to boost the failing bodies of the older people.

Why I want to discuss the issue here ?  At my current age, I could feel that some parts of my body is starting to deteriorate or become weaker. This is the sign of old age and I feel that working with young people is so much interesting so that we can share of experience and also enjoy their innocent jobs or thinking.  Their immature or silly thinking will make us more lively while sharing our thoughts and experience. Of course , this is not for the sex but the thinking of the youth in them make us alive again.

The expression and appreciation by the youth after learning from us can give us a boost or like a " horse kick" impact and make us more aggressive or persuasive on them . I enjoyment of firing them up and to take life reality head on or by the horns and live out their life. This is a marvelous feeling from such experience.

It is like a duet.  The young people have the power , innocent  and the energy and the older people have the knowledge , experience and skill . This two odd part compliment each other well and balance up the lives of both parties. It makes a perfect world.

Namaste.

In the moment ....

 Our mind wonders and our thinking keep shifting.  This is the conditions of an untrained mind . We must be occupied always . Idleness is not acceptable .  To move is to be valuable or meaningful . This is the natural perception of a human being.

If we are not moving physically, we have to move mentally .  The time to sleep is regulated and if we sleep outside the scheduled time, we are being classified as lazy .  This is the perception.

We are all regulated . By what others thinking of us , by the teaching in the books and on the walls, or through our peers , TV or multi-medias.  We cannot fall out of the expected routines and if not, we are out casted.

Should our life be so restricted ?  This the norm of Society or our Establishment.  All of us should be doing the same thing to live a useful life, or to have our earnings in life or for survival of the fittest. Whole lots of reason to perform to our best. 

This is the biggest joke of our life as we are pulled by the nose ?  Is this is the direction where we want to go or is force to go ?  It makes us feel good  isn't it ?  This is behaving normally and not an out cast.

Who define this life style ?  if we think carefully , it is just people.  People created it .  People tell us how to live , eat and die. What is the life process ?  It is so well define is that there is no rooms to be different . This is the only way to come and go.

Books are written by people , tales are told by people and perception is also created by people . So, it is only people ,people and people who dictates our life. 

People like to follow . Just like in the fashion world . What is the latest ? who created it ?  no others, but just people.  They are the leaders in life , leading us through it their way.  Why are we so obedient ?  It is because we are not in the moment and our mind is shifting back and forth  and the only way is to follow and behave normally. 

We are creatures of TREND.

Namaste.

A hard day's night

This is a title to a song sang by the Beatles. One of lyric quote “ it’s been a hard days night and I have been working like a dog “. How true this statement can be ? But , how difficult it can be ? It only needs deep thoughts and time. Everything can be resolved but the outcome is uncertain that is all. Good , bad or ugly. There will be an end result.

A problem cannot be resolved is not a problem. It is already a certainty and a dead fact. So, what can we do about it. We can only accept it and manage around it. So, how can that be a problem. I have always maintain that there can only be quitters and no failures. If we continue to focus on a problem, there will be a solution and the outcome will be what we expect.

So, there is a very popular saying “ let sleeping dogs lie”. Another more dramatic wisdom is “ why flock a dead horse ? “. The horse is already dead and if we continue to whip it , it is of no use. Why waste your resources and energy ?

We have to analyst whether it is a problem or a dead fact. This is very important to understand the status of the problem. Often, it is very vague. On the surface, it is a problem and it needs efforts or focus to handle it but in actual fact, it is already a dead fact if we do not understand or know the underlying situation. We have to get all the facts above or underlying in order not to waste our effort.

One example of a dead fact is that it is raining now and you cannot change that fact or stop the rain but to find a solution not to get wet or stay in-door or postpone the event in an open field. If your car got into accident, you know that you have to report to the police and you will need to pay a penalty or a fine and if worst, you have to pay for the repair.

The difference between a dead fact and a problem is, you car’s wheel is loose when you are traveling in it. Do you want to stop , slowdown or drive to seek help from a mechanic before you get into an accident. So, you can still control the outcome and do something to avoid it.

If it is clear in our mind, we will reduce a lot of problems and will live a more happier life and not to waste our precious time on the matter which the outcome is fixed. It is better to be more analytical and clear in our understanding.


Namaste.

Fate have its mysterious ways - A story

Ultra-marathon runner Micah True found dead in New Mexico

Sat Mar 31, 2012 10:02PM EDT

By LAURA ZUCKERMAN

(Reuters) - Ultra-marathon runner Micah True, missing for four days in the rugged wilderness of New Mexico, was found dead on Saturday, police said.

True, 58, was found in the mountainous Gila National Forest in southwest New Mexico, near the Arizona border in the early evening, said Tom Bemis, incident commander with the New Mexico State Police.

Nicknamed "Caballo Blanco," or White Horse, True became a celebrity after he was featured in the best-selling book "Born to Run" by Christopher McDougall.

True left the Wilderness Lodge and Hot Springs, four miles from the Gila Cliff Dwellings National Monument, on Tuesday, and did not return. The lodge owner notified authorities on Wednesday.

Police then launched a massive search for the missing man, with 15 search teams totaling 60 people combing through 200,000 acres of steep canyons and shallow rivers in the high desert.

His body was found with no obvious signs of injury, police said. A medical examiner was en route, but because of the rugged terrain his body was not likely to be retrieved until Sunday.

True had left for a 12-mile run carrying a water bottle and wearing shorts and a t-shirt. He left his dog at the lodge.

In January, True wrote on his Facebook page: "If I were to be remembered for anything at all, I would want that to be that I am/was authentic. No Mas. Run Free!"

True was the race director for the Copper Canyon Ultra Marathon, a roughly 50-mile race that drew a dedicated group of runners to Northern Mexico.

The douyou island episode

Someone sent me a link to watch the documentary report on the douyou island. What is douyou island and what happen to the Douyou island is a few rocky islands on the yellow seas separating China and Japan and it is only about the area of 7 sq kilo meter. It is belong to China and administered by Japan and through this documentary, we can see the brutality of the Japanese towards China through the several aggression by Japan into china. It is the three "alls" policy by Japan. To take all land , to make use of all of China's huge population to benefit all of Japan.

China was at one time called " the sick man of South East Asia" and through the Ming and Ching dynasty, there was so many aggression into china , Manchuria and Korea which was belong to China once a upon a time. Through the aggression , the world wars and the various war treaty , the douyou island was taken over by japan and after the second world war , it was taken over by USA and after that , returned to Japan for administration but the island belongs to China, Now, this case is been raised by China who is bring it up to the international platform to seek justice.

The evil of war , aggression and greek by one nation have killed millions of Chinese and in turn, during the second world war , Japan was flatten by two atomic bomb. It took two bombs to make Japan surrender and bring back peace to the world,

There is such thing as  the law of karma.. You reaped what you sow and this is applicable to a race. The world is evolving and the fortune of the nations will also evolved.

Namaste.

What is GOD ?

Today,  Philippine President Durte criticize GOD as stupid and son of b.....h in a big catholic church which prompted wide spread criticism of him for his remark.  Someone pray for his sins and someone agreed with him on his perception of GOD.  He blames GOD for creating Adam and Eve and let them fall to their temptations.  Yeah , another straight shooting son of a gun.

Coming to think about it.  What is the image of GOD except that it has been imagined by writers of the bible or the church.  Have you seen GOD ?  Some people will answer, what you did not see , does mean that it did not exit. Just like the wind , you see not but you can feel it .  Yes, this remark is true. There are many things we did not see but it is there and we can feel it.

But does the feeling resembles GOD ?  Who created the human race ?  Did GOD create us in his image ?  In different religions , there are different version of GOD .  There is a Muslim GOD , A Chinese GOD,  a jewish GOD , etc . So many version and image of GOD.  So , do GOD exit ? 

The answer to that question is no there . It depends on the believers or for those who came in  touch with GOD or taught to believe in him .  GOD is not not one GOD , It maybe nothingness or in various forms.

Through the million of years, great teachers appeared at different times and different places and preach the existence of GOD and their followers refine their teachings or add , revised or modify their teachings to be more meaningful to the modern day people.  They imposed their thoughts and belief into the mind of the present people through their writings , teachings and lectures.

Yes, we are make to fear GOD.  This is belief is very good for a society or an establishment and provides some kind of rules , principles and guideline to the way we behave or live.  It is better than the time in Stone Age where we go around naked , dirty and without any guidelines in our way of life. We are animals then.

But come to think about it, are we happier at that time or now ?  Now life is so structured, established , routine and have a trend to follow. There are not so much freedom of expression or living in the way we like.  We live to the expectation of our society or establishment  and living out of it , means that we are not acceptable or a failure. Is it true that we need to live to the expectation of another person.  Why do other people have to judge us ?  We are we , our own self. An individual .

So let us  respect what other people think  or do .  Why do we need to change ourselves to live like other people do.  Do we need their acceptance ?  Just like President Durte of the Philippines , he can speak whatever he likes , why should we criticize him ?  Is he criticizing the believers ? If he do, what is wrong with that ? His thinking.

Just like what Dalai Lama says " if we cannot help others, do not harm them ".. you have all the rights in the world to do what you want but never create any harm to others in the way you act.

Namaste.

My twilight years

There are several phases in our life from the day we are born and until our dying days. 

Our childhood days , our schooling days, our courting days, our working life, our married life and finally, our twilight years. The curtains must fall one of the days and there is no such things as eternal life. If there is , it will be very boring.

Time flows like the river from its outlet into the big ocean and that is where it will lead.  Our dying days.

Yeah, it is very good to ride out into the sunset during the twilight years  and prepare ourselves spiritually to meet our Maker.   Yeah , that is the end of our life by then.

One of my colleague told me that she would want to buy a piece of land to make it into a bed and breakfast or B&B thing and live at her luxurious pace planting  flowers, trees and vegetables to pass her twilight years with no worries.   Just live the life as it comes and with minimum stress. Do yoga , meditation and some activities to pass the day.

For me, I would do the same , go away from the hustle and bustle city life and move into a hill top among the trees while facing the sea view and live the life as it comes. Just now worries and live a life freely and with no constrains.

I was told of a story about a high ranking officer who met a monk and was told that he have been a high ranking officer for his past three lives , very busy doing his duty and have the less of life for himself.  He finally realized that he was busy for nothing in all his lives.  Why is he so busy and finally, life pass before his own eyes.  It was very wise for him to see this point and he felt that he has been wasting his time.

Yeah, it takes a person to step back from his or her busy schedule , take a break before they can realize this point of nothingness from the start.  He or She could have seen it herself without the monk but often than not, it will be someone who will wake them up to see the nothingness in life.

We come from nothing , we hold nothing in our life and we are gone into nothing. This is the basic concept of "nothingness".  This maybe a very passive perception of thing but it is also real in life.  How many 10 years do we have ?  Some people do not have the time to realize it and ended wasting their time and find themselves in nothingness.

Namaste.

Yesterday , what an unlucky day ?

Yesterday, everything went wrong for me ..  It must be one of those blue days where everything was topsy turvy..It started off with me having a constipation at the gym early in the morning.   I was struggling to get the stool out from my ass but it got stuck and it make me very upset and uneasy.

I struggle through my morning exercise and landed my self in the toilet of the gym struggling unsuccessfully...  I was almost worn out from the struggle.

During the struggle, the heavy rain fell in my area and making it so difficult for me to get into the car. I was also struggling to clear my stools . After I reached home , I went straight away for laxatives . Took one pill but it is actually requiring two pills for adults.  There was no result and I was still stuck. The pain have increased drastically and I was more and more uneasy.  Finally, I decided to took green fibre to speed up the solution . But , it still does not work . Then I took another pill but all these efforts was in vein and fruitless.  I was still stuck.

Then I have lost my appetite due to the discomforting pain while waiting for the laxative to work .  I took green fibre and then I took another banana to speed up the impact to my system but it is still unuseless.

Finally , in the evening , I thought of going to the hospital to get the stools suck out but finally , I decide to go the pharmacy to get a set of bullets  ie waxy ones and to push it into my ass to see whether it will worked or not.   I felt be raped by the bullet but it has to be done anyway in order to avoid going to the hospital. Just 10 minutes , the stools came out and I was so relieved by the result .

I could have done it this way from the moment , I was stuck in the morning but my ignorance betrayed me. Finally, it was a simple wax bullet that do the cure.

Why do we not learned from the past experience ?  I have been through it a couple of times in the past but my lack of memory failed me to resort to this basic steps . It was a simple step and yet , I am going in circles until we become im- bearable .


Good help me... thank you , thank you... I am free again.

MBPP complain form - Public park at Jalan Semarak Api , Bandar Baru Air Itam, Penang

Wow , I don't know this was one of my article in my blog as I have written complaints to MBPP but I have not written anything on this form in my blog.

I have written to MBPP on the illegal temple opposite my house with the Indian disciples building a shed next to it to house themselves.  I could see several cars park on the public park and since , this is a public park , nobody could build anything or rear anything on this public land.

Why is the park allowing the construction an Indian temple ?  Isn't the park is a green lung for all the people housing in the area.  I have written volumes of objections to this mis-use of the public park and there was no action but only acknowledged reply from the person in charge.  Where is the rule of law ? 

The funny thing is that the temple was undergoing renovation and changing the God which was house in the temple.  Maybe another group of people is taking over the temple.  How can it be done ?  Is the land transferable ? Isn't this a public park ?  I think the people staying there must be a power war lord and someone of significant connections.

I raise the  question of electricity supply to the temple a long while ago ? TNB cannot do anything and was silence on their part.   I asked them this basic question , why is there a temple in the public park? Another matter is that there was also a 40' ft container lying in the park ?   Is Malaysian land so easily to be occupied by the public ? It is a horrible and messy subject matter.  Can we make money from a  public park , this is another horrible assumptions.

I wonder how and why this contravention has happen and make mockery of the law and the park.  This is an example where "darkness gets stronger as the light retreat " .  A bully and a foolish act by the worshippers and how they can allow such objections to occur .


So bastards and those bullies,. it is time for all of us to enjoy pmsssssssssssssssss\\ 11

Our bondages in life

There was this saying by a homeless guy "  I cam into this world all alone and when I die, I will be the only one in my coffin ".  This is the truth of life and we come with nothing and we go with nothing.  But during our life journey, we gathers many dust and bondages on the way.

From birth, our bondages will start to gather .  We owe our life to our parents and if we are able to earn a living we will  have to take care of them.  We are indebted to them for bring us into this life and provide us the love , shelter , good and a  good education.  Then , we get married , this is another bondage of love and family and we have to take care of our wife and our children's needs.

If we start a family , we will need a job  and a house.  From the job , we have add on the bondage of the job to earn a living and also the debts to buy a house , a car and cater for the future of our wife and kids.  The bondage will get more and more and heavier and heavier.  It is like adding chains to our legs, hands and bodies . It became a burden to carry it around.

For some of us luckier ones, our working wife or children can help to reduce the bondage or the weight from the mid years but this is not a certainty.  The burden could be more if the family members got into money troubles or in any special conditions.  The weight could get heavier.

These bondages varies with each person's circumstances . Some maybe more and some maybe less .  Apart from these material bondage , there are many things happening to our body or our mind as we get old and these is based on the experiences in our life and also the condition of our mind. 

If our mind is stable and calm , then the mental burdens will come in  as one of our bondage.   We have to struggle with our mind and our body everyday until our dying days.  This is a must and a routine as many before us.  The mental or material bondages will wrapped strongly around us and make our lives heavier.

If we die, the bondage will be totally gone.  But in between our journey of life, bondage could be more or less and it  depends on the situation of a particular person. Some luckier or wise ones, could untie the bondage which have gathered around us.  A wise mind could help to untangled ourselves from the bondages we have gather in our life journey and through the experience which have happen to us. But, the true relieved from all these bondages is when we are gone. 

From birth , the bondages will gather around us and when we die, it will disappeared totally at the moment of death 

Namaste.

Stages of love and passion .

When we are young, our mother gives us all the passions , love and care until we complete our school. For some of us , we could enjoy the love earlier if we found the right partner on our journey through schools , college or university .

The initial period of love and passion is hot and tight with the time spend together flew by like a bust hot air balloon.  The courtship then was like magic in the air when there is love.  Time flies and love deepen.

Until we graduate , found a job  , it is time to get married and a new chapter will evolve with the desire and love to start a new family.  After marriage , the bondage becomes stronger and deeper . Some of us could have change some partners by then but it could be also a one man or one women affair.  The love is ever lasting and forever.  We are married until death do we apart. This is the situation of our Establishment and if we were to get separated earlier , it will be shameful for the couple as they are expected to live forever as a couple. 

After getting married and starting a family , the love and passion is shared among all the family members and the time for each other is getting less as the children start their growing up time.  This is where job, family and personal needs clashes with each other. 

Both the parents at the same time have to socialize with their colleagues or customers and their space is stretch even wider and at moments of weakness , there could be another matching partner appearing on the horizon and this could create complications to the working parents. 

As space , time and frequency of intimacy is getting in the way of the relationship, the love and passion will wane and maybe new love or passion could start or end , it will depends on the circumstances.  There are people always on the prowl for better relationship or matching needs. 

As the family grew older , the love and passion could change to care and help.  The relationship could step down to a looser link and could final fade into something strange.  From love and passion , it becomes hatred and strange at times as the demand for each other is getting worse or less.

So, with the feelings and magic gone, the marriage could become just a piece of paper to hold the couple together and it will get less and less important as boredom and the need for freshness becomes more vital to our lives.  It is sometimes better to tear off the marriage certificate which have become just a document and worthless at times.

However, for some , the love and passion remained strong and never waned until the dying days and this is really a true love and life with passion.

Namaste.

Is it better to divorce when the feeling is gone ?

Nowadays,  I have noticed that there are many divorce cases happening around me.  Most of the reasons are non compatibility of character ?  In the old times, people are keeping their marriage intact for the sake of keeping the family together or they go to the extend of forcing themselves to undergo the terrible feeling of hatred towards each other or living under a stressful and unhappy marriage. Now , everything has changed.

It is funny that once there was love and passion before marriage and after marriage , the true colors appeared and the lovebirds become enemies sleeping together in the same bed just to just to keep their marriage intact.  Is this worth the while ?  It must because of the wrongful teachings on family values over one's personal life.  There is so much fear , the fear of losing your better half or the fear of social stigma.  Or just a comparison with the Jones ?

What my personal view is that one's personal life is above all else ? Why the sacrifice for the family if one is not happy ? Why torture ourselves to withstand all the pain and happiness of living with an enemy besides us ?  Yes, our children is our responsibility due our decision to get married but it should be not be only one sided.  It should be a joint responsibility to bring the children up until they become independent.  After this bit of responsibility is done, our obligation is completed and we can part ways without any relationship.  There is no fear of loneliness or fearful of hatred for each other.

Once the passion and love is gone.  It is gone for whatever reasons it might be . So be it and if there is still some care left, then we should live as a friend or a good friend. Why is there so much angeror hatred after the couple divorce ?  Why is that we have to end up faced off with our supposedly "better halves ".  Human beings are so hypocritical ? 

We need to keep our senses and behave logically instead of controlled by our emotions.  We cannot become a slave to our emotions and we should remained calm and composed to end the relationship nicely and neatly.  Yes, if the other half is not working , then they could be a problem of dependency on each other , then an option have to work out so that the relationship among all the family members remained strong and good. It is useless crying over spoilt milk and making it miserable to all around us.

The people around the divorced couple will need to know where they stand and no to interfere with the lives of the couple after the divorce .. It is non of their concern and the couple must allowed to choose their way forward instead of listening to advise of the surrounding others.

Just remember when the passion and love stops and disappear, it is better to breakup and live the remaining of their separate lives happy and in the way they live. No need to hold on and cause misery or handship to the other partner. Let life flow and live on to the next chapter. 

Namaste.

Death is destinated while our fortunes in life is up to heaven.

Last Saturday , I saw this movie  and it was about the gangster days in Hong Kong.  The main character was two very famous Hong Kong actors . The gangsters were in control of all the brothel, drugs and gambling business with the support of the British and Hong Kong police.

There was so much fighting and killing among the gangsters to control the illegal trade territories and make as much money as possible.  The partnership with a top notch Police officer, Lau  and a drug kingpin, Yen was very successful in the illegal trade and they were making million during they heydays . More than the Hong Kong tycoon , Lee Kah Shin. 

Finally, there was so much backstabbing and betrayals among the drug lords and this lead to the killing of the family of the drug kingpin by British corrupted officials and their Hong Kong drug partners.  The drug kingpin was told by the Police officer Lau that the set up of the ICAC dept is after him and have asked the drug kingpin Yen  to get out of Hong Kong.

But, the drug kingpin Yen told the police officer Lau , those words " Death is  pre-destinated and Fortune lies in the hands of heaven " and he choose to stay to take revenge for the killing of his family members. The phrase have a meaning that there is no such thing as a " sure " death even if the odds are greatly against you unless it is written in the stars that you will be killed and whatever fortune you make , it also comes from the stars.

This does not mean that you can sit and wait for your fortune or for death to fall on you.  It means that even if the odds are greatly against you, you could still win or escape death. The next phase is how much you earn or how much is your fortune only God knows. The numbers are written in the stars in heaven.

I don't know whether this is true or not but these sayings have a history of many thousand years and in many incidents , it was come true for a lot of people.  So, you just have to work your best while death and fortune will come at their own time.  You need not worry but to live the moments to the best of your ability.

Namaste.

Image of your bedsheet - reflection of your mind at night

I have an uneventful last night in my  sleep.  So many thoughts went through my mind and it makes me a bit unsettled in the morning. My eyes were feeling tired and blur.  This is the same situation when each time I had a bad night .

This morning , I realized the mess on my bed sheet .  The wrinkles and criss line were very obvious and this reflects the mood or the thoughts that my mind have gone through the night before.  If you have a peaceful sleep, your bed sheet should appear neat and nice.  The image of my bed sheet is like a ripple in the pond after a small stone have been thrown in.  It rattles and becomes blurred with wrinkles.

Yeah , it could be a dream or thoughts going through our head which sent the ripples through our body and hence, our body's movement have caused the dis-organized mapping on the bed sheets.  The more trouble are the thoughts, the more disruptive in on the bed sheets. 

Our toss and turn during our sleep to turn away from the dream or the thoughts really mend a way to escape from this nightmare or upsetting thoughts.  It is true that what has gone through our mind and body is printed on the bed sheets.

So, we always say that the mind and body is one.  What goes through the mind , the body will act it out or shake it out .  Throw out whatever is bad and keep the good thoughts inside us.  The good thoughts will give us the peace of the mind and the body will remain in peace and harmony. 

But , what causes our dreams or thoughts ?  How can we control the good thoughts which will bring good and peaceful sleep ? When we are asleep , can we control our thoughts ?  I don't think that we can control what we think in our sleep ?  Our sub-conscious will take over and whatever is good or bad will come their way into our dreams and thoughts .  However, if we are awake and trying catch some sleep , then it is a different matter. The thoughts can be controlled by us and we can shut them off if we want. It also depends on our mood and we are strong and firm , we can command them but if we are weak and tired, this is where the thoughts will control and lead us.

The difference in this happening is between a " trained" or an " untrained mind".  A trained mind will give us a better control on our thoughts while an " untrained mind" is like the criss cross mapping on our bed sheets.  A troubled soul on an even bed and the result is a messed up bed sheet.

Namaste.

Life is unpredictable : Yours truly

My friend and colleague R is hospitalized suddenly after feeling tired and not well.  He was diagnosed as having a high blood pressure , weak heart and kidney.  Well , he was acting normal before that and going to lunch with me sometimes and eating whatever that was ordered.  Yes, he has done a by-pass but that was years ago . He was moving around well but he told me that the job pressure is getting too strong for him to bear.

Well, his boss was with him for only 2 1/2 years ago and he was looking for him to go back to the holding company. Recently, his wish was met as his boss was transfer recently. But within the two and half years, his health was affected so much due to  the work pressure. So, we better don't underestimated the power of work pressure on our health. Stress is a very dangerous and we better accept and find ways to flask it out.

Well , I think this is also a matter of age catching up with him. Lately, I also feel the stress and strain on my body as there are more aches and pains all around. It is better to take care of it at the bud when it first appear. Don't we just let it develop into a chronic pain and affect our overall health eventually.

What is money when we have poor health ?  It is better to be wise to accept that money is not everything but enough of it is also very important.  When it is time to say goodbye to our working life , we better take a hard look at it and make a fast decision unless there are reasons to stay on. Staying on for more money in our bank is a foolish act. 

Many of my younger staff told me that use what we have when we are around rather than looking at our bank account from the sky after we die. One of my staff starts to wear all her silver jewellery after we talk our life time wishes.  She realized that we should wear or use everything that we are given or bought and should not keep this items to be use in the future.  She worries that these items if left unused could be used by her husband's future wife or girlfriend , if she suddenly pass away .  Well, this is very wise indeed and at least, she realized that we cannot be living for a thousand years and life is very unpredictable.  Eat what you like to eat, wear what you like to wear and live within your means and enjoy your life as much as possible.  Yes, her positive and wonderful attitude make me realized that it is better to live well and not to live long and be miserable to ourselves for the future.

Yeah, this should be the way forward .

Namaste.

Usage of abusive words

Some people consider themselves to witty or smart and " run fire" by using abusive or sarcastic words to humiliate  the people around them.  They feel that it is their right but contrary, it his a human right abuse or an insult to the intelligence of the people. So, these users of this tactic to push or punish another person is wrong and unwelcome.  They become people with thorns or spikes.

Why do we need to make us so unwelcome and despised by the people around us especially people who have been caring and supportive of us.  Can we hold back a little and try to be a nicer people instead of  despised by all.  Why need to put show their fangs and give insult to people ? There must be a reason.  He or she must be sick and they are not aware of it.

To throw our worries or hurt other people verbally by words is not smart but foolish in the end.  We should gain the respect of the people around us instead of putting fear in them and make them respect you.  How can it be ? Respect is not demanded but to be earned.  So, those abusive people must understand this point.  Holding a high position and have power , is not very thing.  All the power will ceased when the title is taken back.  How foolish can this people be ?

Another thing is that , if we want respect , we have to be respectful to others .  This is a simple logic, so abusive people are normally unhappy and sick people who want the best for themselves while belittling others and make them feel great. 

Maybe , they are controlled by their own emotions and they become another person which may not be what they want to be.   Such changes in the personality and behavior is like a sick person and this is hidden and sightless but damaging to the health and karma of that person.

Namaste.

Some nasty thoughts

When some driver drove his car into my lane , I am upset and would wanted to scold the driver badly.  That was what happen to me last eveing , a driver just shalve his old car into my lane suddenly while I was driving home.  Some nasty thoughts just took over from me.  I could have bang his car or pull out driver and scolded him properly or ask him to fly kite.

Yes, the nasty thoughts just shoot up in my head and push my anger to a melting point.  I would kill him or wack him up but all these are just thoughts and it has not trigger me to do any physical movement.  Yeah, the thoughts is only killing me while that stupid fella , just don't realized it.  What am I doing to myself by letting these thoughts troubled me badly.  This is my choice but yet , the thoughts took over me and make me act like a bloody fool.  Why am I hurting myself without letting the other fella knows or feel it .

This happeing showed that we are not the master of ownself.  Our emotions and feeling could take over from us and give us sleepless nights or torturing our body.  It is just like opening my car window and shout at him " Fuck you , fellas ' . But does these words hurt him ? Maybe he did not even realized it that you are upset and he has the pleasure to laugh at it.   " Haha , that stupid fella ".  I am suffering and punished by my negative emotions and that fella can enjoy the instance.  I must be stupid lah.

It is not always , someone do it to me but at times, I do it on to other people.  Just like one of the day , where I suddenly changed lane and the driver behind was honking him loudly and I just smile and tell myself , that mad fella, honking like an idiot.  Yeah, we feel not affected at all by such instances.

Yeah, you do it one day and I do it one day , this is a natural routine but the anger and displeasure from these instances really makes me feel helpless with my emotiions.  It is easy to say then done. But I have to try to control my focus and also my own perception of things.  Yes , this is all within us.

Namaste.
