Love: Simply, an Alternate Life

2009-06-15T19:32:00.010+08:00

.
In Life, the Ultimate Goal is to be Successful.
This Applies to Every Single Person,
.
The term Success Is Subjective.
People Have Different Impressions on Being Successful..

Different People See Success Differently.
.
Love, is not just a feeling nor a Goal In Life.

Love Is Another Life.

Another Process,

Another journey

Another Path Bearing Torments, Filled with Uncountable Challenges.

Similarly,

In Love,

Being Successful in One's Love Life is Subjective.

Different People See Love Differently, just as how Life Is Seen.

"By Risking, You may Live a Short Life"

But,
"By Not Risking, You Have not Lived at All"

.
Likewise, in Love, There are Risks.

By Not Risking, One Does Not See Love At All.

What Is Love?
.
There Are No Flawless Answers.
It Is The Same As Asking,

What Is Life?

This Boils Down To Self-Discovery.

Not Just That Of The Individual But That Of The Couple.
.
The Moment A Couple Embarks On The Journey To Discover Love,

Their Alternate Life Then Starts.
Their Love-Life Thus Begins.
.
Love [Life] Is A Challenge, A Complicated Journey.

Will Weighs Much More Than Skill

2009-05-31T00:21:00.008+08:00

Due Respect To Darwin's Theory of Natural Selection:

ONLY The Fittest Of The Jungle Survives.

For Animals,

It Depends Largely On The Physical Built,

On Its Ability To Survive In The Wilderness.

For Animals,

Their Survival Depends On Skill, Alone.
.

For Humans,

We Also Depends On Our Genes Of Our Ancestors

We Depend On The Built Inherited From Our Parents.

We Learn Skills From Others.

All, To Survive In the "Wilderness"

However,

We Often Forget The Fact

That We Are Not Merely Animals.

That We Are Intellectual Beings.

That We Have A Sophisticated Brain.

That We Have the Ability To Think, To Feel.

Its Not The Physically Fittest Who Survives,

But Rather,

The Mentally Fittest Who Survives.

Its The Mental Stamina Which Determines The Winner Of The Rat Race.

Thus, Rather Than The Skill Of One,

The Emphasis Should Be Placed More On the Development of
The Will.

Without The Will, Regardless of Skill,

There Will Be Minimal Achievements.

However,

Without The Skill Yet A Strong Will,

Much More Can Be Achieved.

Its Not The Choice Between I Can Or I Cant.

Rather,

Its A Choice Between I Want Or I Dont Want.

The Will Weighs Much More Than The Skill.

The Balance: Give And Take

2009-05-11T18:22:00.004+08:00

As relevant to the Balance between Yin and Yang,

Gift corresponds to Recieve.

Neither One Shall exist without the other One.

Never Expect To Take Without Giving Anything Away.

Never Expect To Gain Without Sacrificing Anything Away.

"The Theory of Equilvalent Trade"

You Gain What You Put In.

You Gain What You Contribute.

Fairness, Balance, Equality - The Libra-ian Way of Life

"What Goes Around, Comes Around"

Life Is A Cycle.

Life Is Fair.

.
Life Is Just.

.
Life Is About the Balance:
The Balance Between The Give and The Take.

Trust: Something Earned, Not Given

2009-04-09T06:00:00.009+08:00

Trust Is Acquired Through Sweat And Blood.

Trust Is Gained Through Many Hours Spent.

Trust Is Not A Simple Concept Gained Overnight.

Trust Cannot be Gained Without Effort.

.
Gain Trust From Others Through Your Actions
Rather than
Asking Them To Trust You.
.

Actions Speak Louder Than Words

Do Not Just Say It, Do It.

Show Others That You Are Capable.

Show Others That You Can Be Trusted.

Show Them Through Your Actions.

Trust Is Earned,

Trust Is Never Given.

The Balance: Heart, Mind And Body

2009-04-08T18:00:00.002+08:00

The Heart Comprising Of Your Emotions.

The Mind Comprising Of You Intellectual Abilities.

The Body Carrying Out the Actions.

The Heart, The Mind And The Body Unites To Form You.

With Each Being As Important As The Other Component.

A Person With A Strong Body yet Weak Heart Is

FAR WEAKER

Than One With A Strong Heart yet Weak Body.

.
The Heart Should Feel the Desirable.
The Mind Should Think of the Desirable.
The Body Should Practise the Desirable.
.
Never Leave Any Of Them Out.

They Come Together,

Stay Together,

Grow Together,

And, Eventually,

Perish and Disintegrate Together.

They Behave As Though They Are Triplets.

They Share The Same Life Line.

Emotions Make Us Human

2009-04-03T06:00:00.013+08:00

To Be Able To Feel Makes Us Human.

To Smile At Pleasant Sights.

To Weep At Sorrowful Occasions

To Get Frustrated Over Problematic Issues

To Fear The Unthinkable

We Have Emotions.

Although Generally,

Emotions Tend To Make Us Weaker.

Never Attempt To Hide Your Feelings.

Never Try Masking Your Emotions.

Running Away Bring You Nowhere.

Running Away Is Merely A Short-Term Solution.

Instead,

Enjoy, Experience, Cherish Your Ability To Sense and Feel.

Nature Gave Us This Ability As A Blessing, Not a Curse.

Cherish This Gift From Nature.

Express Your Emotions Without Any Boundaries.

Appreciate This Ability,

For,

It is This Ability Which Makes Us Human.

Emotions Give Rise To Humanity.

You Spark A Difference

2009-04-02T06:00:00.010+08:00

Your Existence,

Your Presence,

Your Actions,

Will Shape Another Person's Life.

Every Small Action You Make,

Every Helping Hand Reached Out To Others,

Will Affect Another Person's Life.

People Will Benefit From Your Little Actions.

People Will Be Better Off With You.

However,

If You Were To Not Do Anything.

Nothing Will Change.

People Can Still Get On With Life.

People Do Not Need You To Survive.

People Can Only Use Your Help To Better Survive.

People Are Not Fully Dependent On You.

Your Absence From Another Person's Life Thus Holds No Significance.

Your Existence Makes A Difference, Your Absence Holds No Significance

Life: An Unpredictable Journey

2009-04-01T06:00:00.011+08:00

When Was A Person Ever Able To Predict The Future?

When Was A Person Always Able To Predict The Future?

Never

The Future Is Unpredictable.

What Actually Lies Ahead In This Journey?

That Is A Question Without A Real Answer

Even Death Is Unpredictable

Sadly,

When Will The Time Be Up?

That Is Completely Unknown.

Tomorrow is Another Mystery.

Therefore,

Rather Than Thinking About What Will Happen Tomorrow.

Rather Than Trying To Predict The Unexpected Future.

Do What You Can To Change The Present.

The Present is What You Can Change At This Moment.

The Past Cannot Be Undone.

The Future Is Unknown.

Only, The Present Can be Changed.

Thus,

Do Something.

Change Something.

Why Wait?

At This Moment.

At This Present State.

Time Is Ticking Away.

Reflect the Past,

Cherish the Present.
Dream the Future.

Life: A Short Journey

You Live through this Life as the Days Fly By.
You Live Through this Life with an End in Mind.

Yet
.
Time Flies Very Quickly,
And Silently.
.
And Before you Realise,
Life is About to Reach the End.
.
Life is a Short Journey

However

That Does Not Stop You From Attempting to Enjoy Life.

Life Being Short Does Not Mean You Are Deprived From the Joys of Life.

In Life,

There Will Be Sufferings.

There Will Be Sorrow.

Nevertheless,

Live Life To The Fullest!

Life Has It Bright Side As Well.

Taste Life With All The Spice.

Appreciate Life.

Life is Short,

Time is Running Short.

Time is Precious.

Do What You Should Do.

Cherish This Life.

Life Is A Short Journey.

Life: Waking Up Is A Blessing

2009-03-29T12:15:00.018+08:00

Every day, We Wake up From Sleep,

Demanding More Sleep due to Laziness.
Sloth.
.
We Tend To Complain That We Are Awakened Too Early.
We Demand More Sleep.
.
Think About It,
.
At That Very Moment

When You Want To Sleep More,
Another Person In The World Dies In Their Sleep,
He Wishes To Wake Up,
But,
He Fails.

Also,
.
There Is Another Group Of People Who Do Not Wish To Wake Up.
For,

Waking Up Would Lead Them Straight To Nightmare.
No Home,
No Family,
. No Friends.

.
Only Fear.

Yet

Despite That

Never Give Up Your Life,

Life Is Full Of Sufferings

We Never Know What Will Happen Tomorrow.

.
Rather,

Live Everyday To Its Fullest. .

View Life With Optimism,

Be Glad You Are Alive.

Cherish Your Life.
Waking Up Is A Blessing,
Waking Up In Your Home,

In Your Room,

At Where You Belong

Is a Blessing.

Life: Entirely about Sufferings

2009-03-28T07:14:00.011+08:00

Life is a One-Way Journey.

A Journey where There is No Turning Back.

This has been Decided Since Birth.

The Destination of Life is None-Other than Death.

Regardless of the Path You Take,

You will Encounter Difficulties,

Obstacles,

Hardships.

In Life, People will Suffer.

Sufferings Are Inevitable.

The World is Imperfect.

Humans Are Imperfect.

People Struggle and Suffer to Attempt to Make Up for this Imperfection.

People struggle through Sufferings to stay Alive.

"Every Hurdle You Overcome makes You A Stronger Person"

Through Experiences, People Become Stronger.

The Happiest Moment in Life,

May be when Life Ends Yet All Your Desires Are Fulfilled.

There is Satisfaction,

There will be A Peaceful Mind.

Death Is The Moment Where You Remember How You Survived the Impossibles..

That is when, you can honourably Declare;

"I have Lived Through Life, Endured The Sufferings.

I Am Satisfied With My Life"

Never Give Up in the Facing An Obstacle,

Rather,

Struggle Through,

Endure It.

Press on,

Live Through It.

You Will Emerge as A Stronger Self.

A Future is like a Dream.

People Dream,
People Aspire,
People Desire a Brighter Future.

Yet

Only a few Succeed.

WHY?

People Dream,

But few work towards this Dream. .

By Doing Nothing,

You Attain Nothing In The Future.

You May Be Lucky,

Scraping through Life.

However,

That Future is Meaningless.

No Achievements,

No Satisfaction,

No Success,

That Life Is Wasted

Rather,
.

Work Towards Your Dream, Asiprations,

Towards the Brighter Future,

Your Own Future.

For,

A Future Created by your Own Hands is a Dream-Come-True.

It is A Future which Belongs Solely to the Unique You.
