Life & Death Where Deaths Cannot Wait

life and death is not a choice...

When death comes a calling, nobody can delay nor seek extension
The time to return and the method are never pre-announced
Neither are you allow any lengthy delay

My friend was near death as both his kidneys failed but he opted for a transplant; today he is well and lively
Another was healthy and vibrant but his doctors discovered that he has stage-4 liver cancer and told him he has, maybe 3-4weeks to live - this is the 2nd week
A shot out of the blues; one return from death's door & the other to enter

Is there such a thing as "Wait, I am too young to die or I am not ready to go"? No, it's all pre-programmed
Some called this destiny

Make the best of today & live to the fullest
No matter what strike you, you mood & you stature in life
Do all that you can and want to
The butterfly takes its first flight when its wings are dry after metamorphosis
You cannot experience nor enjoy transfiguration without the miracle of Nature's conversion
 Live to the fullest before the last breathe leaves

In life, experiences count
Looking back, the forward can be plotted
We can learn from books, mentors, guardians and experiences...
Every step forward builds upon an earlier lead
We learn from the past to make the future better
Disruptive knowledge and invasive methods will cannibalize & rework existing flows

Will technology and AI displace and replace humans? No, but the ways forward change

When time is compacted, the speed of change accelerates
Stress level increases and the 'normal' is no longer relevant
In effect, the human race is racing faster towards the end ...
Do you need to rush? No, the end will come ultimately

Beautiful? Yes
Real? Maybe
This part of town was reclaimed from the sea
The leisure boats were there but cannot enjoy a cruise by the bay
The pride of the financial town built for the locals but 'infested' by foreigners
Everything look picturesque; standstill
It's so surreal

Like living organisms, the city populace mix changes
Adding one factor, labor, while holding the other factors constant has caused dismemberment of an identity built over the years
The social fibre & identity have been diluted
Everything is... & feels artificial
Will the death of some ideas change the equation? Probably
The only constant is change

Death the leveller
Death is never a choice
Stay healthy, happy and make hay while the sun shines
Do whatever your heart leads you
There is no right or wrong, on consequences
If you can & is willing to bear the consequences, go ahead to conquer the world
Life is never stagnant




 


 

Dreams & Reality : Make It Happen

dreams are make of snow, spice and everything nice...

Dare you dream, work on it & you shall crystalize them
Every efforts count; drips upon drips fill an ocean
From a seed, came seedling
With TLCares, the result can be influenced
The fruit of success never comes by accident but the ideal goal arrives via incidental planning guidance...

金木水火土 The five elements are jin (metal), mu (wood), shui (water), huo (fire), tu (earth) - This is the clash
Metal cuts Wood
Wood cuts Earth
Earth cuts Water
Water cuts Fire 
Fire cuts Metal
火土金水木 This is the flow (harmony) - Generating interaction



Whatever you choose to do or not to do, you reap what you sow 因果
Let us not worry too much about tomorrow as tomorrow's never promise
The wealth you have cannot buy health
Stay healthy; with health you can achieve many more things & explore new frontiers
There is no need to quarrel nor be vindictive as revenge brews destruction and conspiracy
Be ready to "let go & leave the scene"; pain is temporary
放不下 就是还不够辛苦 还扛得起

What is wealth and happiness? Happiness is wealth
Wealth may not be happiness
He needs to earn a living, a livelihood
A responsible man must 'carry his own cross'
Nobody can share your burden and sufferings
However, everyone can/will share your 'goodies & wealth'

Be honest and live a dignified life
Whatever that's not yours shalt never be
Whatever that doesn't belongs to you, however you struggle or scheme, shalt be futile
The reward of honesty is a peace of mind
We must be able to live within our means and let the world falls into place naturally

I am no Saint nor am I goodie-type
I am just a simple person looking forward to the next day
I have no secret to living; just honest living

An apple a day keeps the doctor away
But, APPLE? Apple started many freaky problems

Eve gave an apple & mankind sinned
The falling apple gave Sir Issac Newton the Nature's theory of gravity
Steve Jobs Apple create a 24-hours workday where the smart phone & computer wreck havoc to everyone's life

Do not believe in innocent looking things
They don't kill but cast permanent curses that no medicine can reverse

Noe even GOD

Lies, Half-truths & Misinformation

lie, lies and more lies...

Kermit was created to entertain Porky & the public
The rainbow connection was an empty promise & illusion
The beauty, the dreams, the promises ...the tomorrows
In the end, it is for yourself, by yourself
You arrived naked & shalt return likewise; cremated
Money buys comfort, fame & power but not peace

We can plan quarterly, yearly or 5-yearly
Anything beyond 10 years is hollow; it's like sailing with a destination in mind but minus the compass
Sharing a dream is great but few wake up to work on it ...it's just a "Hope"
Keep life simple, avoid distractions and keep disappointment at bay

Believe in yourself
If you buy into others dreams and goals, you help them achieve theirs, not yours
Never leave Fate in other's hands

Such beautiful entrance
Where do you think this alleyway leads to? Surprise, surprise
This leads to the toilet. Yes; toilets
All that glitters is not gold
Pretty women and awesome men do not equals good homo sapiens
Life can be deceptive

Anyone who promises you the sky, the sun and the moon but expect you to pay with your Soul are best avoided
Whoever tells you half the story are best kept at bay
六亲不认  胜者为王
Hell is full of good meanings, but heaven is full of good works
Winning at all costs is the doing of a merciless character
The path to hell is paved with good intentions
人心本善 but greed and selfishness changed the results

“Give me the child for the first seven years and I'll give you the man.” ― Jesuit maxim

Our futures are not determined by Providence
They have potentials, luck or lack of it and opportunities. 
Collect, collate, analyse information and make informed decision
Without sufficient information, decisions may be made with gutfeel or experiences
Be ready to pay for the price for failures
Learn from books, learn from others, learn from experiences
There is no "one-best solution" to any challenges

Whatever fits

If you willingly buy into blind loyalty, you can't blame anyone when the 'gate of Hell' opens to you
The world is filled with half truths, misinformation and entrapments

Beware and be aware; sweet nothings, costs nothings
 

The Probability Of A Possibility

2/3 gone & 1/3 to go - 2018...

There is one third of 2018 left
Nothing much had been achieved to date
How? Like a long drawn movie, life goes on
This is a year of deflecting many good but undelivered promises and faltered goals
It is not totally a wasteful journey; you learned to skip, reroute and drop wilful dreams
Tomorrow is never promised

Correcting a wrong path is better than blindly following it in the hope it will turn out to be good

Blind loyalty & pliant obedience do not yield the desired outcomes
Knowing when to cut loss & move on
That is the Art of Survival & Self-actualization 
Believe in yourself

This looks like any 330ml milk bottles
It is indeed
The left bottle is for adults and the right is for the baby
A little alcohol helps ease the day's chores & to maintain sanity
Some says alcohol and ciggies are bad for health
Well, well; many abstain from both but still die from various illnesses
Guess, everything in moderation is good

There are moments when being alone is sanity

Nobody should 'enjoy' substance abuse
Avoid bad companies who indulge in substances abuse
Life is already fairly tough; so do not make it any worse
You can live a normal life or write a disastrous history


Life is around until the last breath
Keep cool and calm; nothing destroys you
The despondent sees everything flowing against him & his world is dark & pathless...
Threats and destruction lie ahead
The only light is ... Hope

Death is never the solution but a leveller

I live in a cycle of Hopes
Nothing is promised but, without trying, the end is the same - empty
If you try, you either gain results or experiences
Being off tangent is still along the same route but a different outcome
Scary? No, a new line of experiences

I once decided I will never, I will never be in the sales (lines) 
But, my first job was in sales  & I was a top 10 performer & I never looked back
I have my fair share of misses but mostly made it in due course
Time is the best friend and preparations built the best fundamental

With 3 months to close 2018
I shall continue to explore & exploit
It may look dampening and discouraging
But, the world loves a Winner & I shall
