what can be worse than dying or waiting to die...
Many people complain about next to nothing and everything sundry
The figure out somehow their lives is worse than everybody or they're down in the pit
They think death is the exit & solution and curse the worldly and the Godly for their plights
Why? How did they reach the spot with No "U-turn"? It's really just imagination
Go to the hospice and see how grateful the in-patients feel when they welcome another day
Go to the mortuary and 'ring the alarm clock' loudest and check if any of them are able to wake up
Visit the prison and learn for yourself that the prisoners cannot just walk out & away like you
Travel to a famished locale or a war-torn area and feel the scarcity of food & water
Positive begets positive
The more negative you are or indulge, the deeper your desparateness and hopelessness
You hate your mother, your father, your family...you blame the whole world except yourself
What do you think if you are left alone in this world; will your life be any better? Think hard
Do not wait until your parents are gone then you wish 'I can talk to them & share!'; gone forever
Do not deliberately and stubbornly challenge your parents even you know you are in the wrong
The intentional causing of disharmony and spiking the relationship will haunt you someday... as
As someday, you may be the father or mother experiencing the exact reflection of what you'd done
KARMA 因果 has no menu; you harvest whatever you planted
"Look at the prairie, the green grass, the blue sky, the little children playing and the birds chirping" said the immobile, terminally ill patient looking out of his bedside window. This brought laughter, care and light heartedness to other patients around him.
After he passed away, another patient requested a change to the same spot. He saw...a tall wall & nothing more
The walls between the cells in the prison are damn intimidating, crowded and soul-breaking. Sentences varies from weeks to years to permanent life sentences. Worst are those waiting to die (gallows). One prisoner who was sentenced to 9 years imprisonment due to the miscarriage of justice (read : set-up) decided since Day 1 to greet & shout; "Good morning Shanghai, such an awesome sight of the Bund and the lights. Stay healthy and have a great meal"
Some years past and some prisoners were transferred to his cell as 'per their request'. They discovered that the cell is no different from theirs
Attitude changes everything; you can blame the world or anyone for your predicaments but you (& you ALONE) can lead a happy life or be miserable until your time is up
Just Do Your Best and care & share with your loved ones
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, stay calm & think positive
Like night, day shall returns...change is the only 'permanence'
Everyone must live to tell their tales
If you can't change the situation, adapt into the environment; blend in
Alone is NOT lonely; Empty is NOT void
The biggest and most formidable challenge is You, YOURSELF
If you cannot adapt yet refuse to change your attitude, how do you expect to win? The world loves a winner
Dying is NEVER a solution; we're born to play different roles
Whatever you do or risk, remember; Spare A Thought For Your Loved Ones
A lively and alive YOU is better than a successful dead hero
人生本来就是一场戏 你只要把你的本分做好
心有多大 舞台就多大
Tomorrow may not be promised but why win an argument but loss the war

Live Healthily ~ Be Happy
Age is a digit that keeps adding & never drops
Health and mobility is constantly declining
As much as you wish to upkeep and maintain your bodily capabilities, you can only slow the decline
生老病死 The natural cycle of Birth, Aged, Sickness, Death aptly define life metamorphosis
For whatever reasons, as age catches up, our bodily health declines; slowing down is a must
However, nothing destroys more than a bout of illness
The worst is not illnesses but the giving up of "The Will" to live
Living healthily includes happiness
No one can live healthily if the mind is clouded with doubts, worries and problems
Many pray to God for 'Good Health' but live in the shadows of doubts
Where negative vibes build, the Soul cannot be 'well & fine' but it's spirit undermines
Only birth and death is beyond our decision
没有做不到的事 只有还没想到
But, without good health, many things are fairly impossible
心有多大 舞台就多大
I was poor but built my way up 白手起家
Educational qualification/papers were collected along the way; from Lambaga to VITB to Private colleges & Uni
Work was a breeze as I made it so; the hunger to succeed superceded any iota to complaint
Survival and prosperity were on the same side of the coin
I had survive the onslaughts of challenges; real, fake & sinister
Nobody will stand by you when your cards collapse but your family & a couple of bosom friends, if any
Some money in-hand comes in handy when life hits the pit
Back to the basics is a lesson; well taught & learnt well
Life wasn't lonely but alone
Like day & night, we must persevere.
For tough days don't last, tough people do
There are no hero
All heroes are dead & remembered
When life gets rough, stay cool and calm
Nobody sails through the eye of the storm without being shaken
But, everyone who returns safely live to tell a tale
Be Good & Live To Tell Your Tales

Envy: The Poison Of The Soul
problem...problems...loads of problems
Men quarrel over two things; woman or money
Women quarrel over anything; things they disagree with, not necessarily right or wrong
Success also brings along fresh perspective and new problems
Failure is simple and decimate future problems & also evaporise your future
There is a price for everything, may not be dollars along but efforts
Rich & famous do not mean problem-free
Howard Hughes - tycoon, aviator, philanthropist, recluse needed to be identified at death
Casey Johnson - heiress to Johnson & Johnson, died at age 30
Frank Sinatra - suffered depression and mood swings & tried committing suicide twice
Callie Rogers - strike $3mil lottery at age 16 & messed up her own life on coke
钱不是万能 但没钱是万万不能
Leslie Cheong - singer, reportedly left behind HK$600mil, suicide
钱多不一定没问题 有时候就是钱惹的祸
The empty mind is the devil's workshop
When the basics are fulfilled, newer wants are created & greed breeds
Expectations may not be rational but exceptional
Demands are made, logic aside
The human mind must be kept busy and filled with some worries and projections
“Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's needs, but not every man's greed.” ― Mahatma Gandhi
Whether friends or siblings, self-sufficiency is the way
If and when everyone prospers, that's uniquely successful
It's possible to help but sustainability need self & efforts
The biggest evil is greed & it's potently destructive if comingled with envy
Do not blame others for your failures as you, especially if you readily blame others, you will never share your success willingly; you're an incorrigible leech
Problems of life is not money or the lack of it
It's the self-serving and envy that brew troubles; you cannot see beyond your nose
Be independent, care & share and not leech nor lie for a better tomorrow
If destiny is fated, you yourself craft your own path
Get up and get going; go forth and conquer the world
The togetherness is to build good health, positive mind and a friendly network
There's nothing about wealth nor money
A lot efforts are 'put into' training and getting together
有健康就有机会 明天会更好
Do not earn wealth to pay for health
Stay healthy for a better tomorrow
Money can buy many things but you cannot employ another person to 'suffer your sickness'
Steve Jobs has all the money in the world but his wealth cannot 'bribe' his cancer away
Do not leech on, nor envy, your friends & siblings
God willing, everyone will succeed within their abilities

Ironies Of Life
the month of May came and went ...effortlessly and unknowingly
It's June - half a year into 2016
What have you done in the past five months that have added positively to your well being
What were the setbacks that almost 'drown' you, if any
Could life has be crafted better or, perhaps, even worse
God does not have a mid-term report card for anyone of us
Whether it's good or bad, better or worse, somehow it will keep changing
When you can't let-go, it means you can still shoulder the weight/pain 放不下是因为还能扛得住
Easier said than done; I walk away from trying situation as far as I possibly can
When I can't, I manage it and prayerfully it will not implode & nuke my life
But...
I have long accepted that 'if I give in, avoid it determinely, try to minimize any damages, take some punches, yet it implode' then, the cleaning and rectification re-starts! Not a choice sometimes
What if death occurs? Death is also a solution, unfortunate though
Sometimes, the victim dies, at others, the perpetrator
Man proposes, God disposes
The reality is "you may want to stay neutral, be supportive or even accept disadvantages" does not mean you will be left alone peacefully ~ undisturbed
该来的一定回来 该发生的总是会发生
Let's face it: nothing kills you but it can make you really miserable
If misery can kill you (a person), then why are there still so many malnourished, underprivileged miserable people in the in Africa and North Korea? Irony...
The physical disadvantages do not maim
The emotional shortcomings kill
Envy is worse than jealousy
Ego/Pride is worse than principle
I am walking through a very trying period; not physically nor financially but emotionally
I guess,the problem is I have provided too much care and comfort that the freedom from worries transformed into gossips, innuendoes and unreasonable demands from my 'closest'
I am waiting patiently to walk away from this ...slow cooker
Someday, when I am not around & have departed from the debacle
The nostalgia would be "...wow, when he was around...so good..so good..& so good..."
Then life would have come a full circle
I will become HAPPY again
Isn't this an irony?!!? I share all to make everyone happy or as 'comfortable as possibly can'
But, with freedom, maybe I should call this 'boredom', came mischief
Let the cards collapse & let the future takes form
I have done my BEST
Long after everything falls into place, I will have my last laugh

Motivation : Be Inspired
Every success starts small, some from misery
Bruce Lee was an unrated actor in Hong Kong, then Hollyhood
His selling point was his form of martial arts
Speed, accurate, lethal with inner-strength
His return to Hong Kong started his superstardom but he did face earlier rejections
RaymondChow & Golden Harvest believed in him and the rest is history
Bruce Lee remained a legend today
He believes in perfection and made it
An abused child at 9 years old, pregnant with an unwanted kid at 14 & losing the child at birth
Oprah Gail Winfrey turned her misfortune into a nett worth of us$2.7bil as a talk-show host
She believed in not dwelling in misfortune but to create a better tomorrow
Steve Jobs was an adopted child & graduated at High school
Ronald Wayne brought Steve Jobs & Steve Wozniak together and Apple Computer was born
Wayne sold his 10% stake for us$1500 because he saw risk in what the Two Steves wanted to do
Jobs himself was replaced before returning to helm Apple & bring it to glory again
Steve Jobs was ousted from his own company, returned to helm it & bring it to higher grounds; retrenchment aka sacked is not the end of the world if you are worthy of your skills
Narayan Murthy was born poor but educated
He went on to set up Infosy with 10,000rupees and his parents did not stop hime from his initial business failure
He is worth us$1.7 bil
Narayan was born poor but (made it to) live rich; it is for you to write your own Fate
Jack Ma turned weakness into strengths
He learned English from tourists and graduated with a Bachelor degree in English
His faith in internet lead him to start Alibaba with $20,000; he is worth us$23.7bil
Jack turned weaknesses into strength and believes in sharing. He was also able to exploit others' strengths and make them better; the Synergistic Master
If you are lazy, indifferent and see problem before you see opportunity
If you are selfish, self-centred and greedy and never bother to share or offer help
If you are envious, loudmouthed and talk down to others
How can you immerse in negatives and expect positive results? There is no secret that the cosmic forces attract "Like to Likes..."
I have met many lesser known entrepreneurs but equally successful
Their stories inspire
Why not do something and inspire others too? If Fate is destiny, I will write my own page

Reality Versus Providence : Efforts Win
it's muddling ...it's mind boggling
The sudden string of earthquakes & the repeated volcanoes eruption over the globe
From Mynmar to Pakistan and China
From Japan to Equador & stretch into Tonga and Afghanistan
Many worry that they have no money but, with 'Good Health', money can be found when efforts are sold or bears fruits
Without health, many are living dead活生生 though fairly rich
You really cannot eat 'money' nor buys health with it
My bucket of wishes; the 'DOs & DON'Ts' is fluid
Of late, many asked if I've retired and I am kinda unsure
What is 'retirement'? I am actively seeking economic opportunities and struggling to find income
I am an unemployed economic mouse seeking my next piece of cheese ...
I am seeking inner peace and struggling to develop 'a mind of indifference空'
I wanna leave worries behind an 'plough the land to seek peace and harmony'
Fame, power, money and recognition is a fool's gold
Temporary-ness and instant satisfaction is like the last breathe..here and gone in a moment
Ala! I'm as human as everybody; constantly caught between material needs and desire
However rich you are, you need some food & water ; Too much rich foods is the surest route to illness
However poor you are you need to survive to see the next sunrise ; excesses are always bad
Change your ways/minds and you change your life
You become what you think/decide
I am in a flux; can't do nothing & struggling to do something
Trying to earn my keeps, I guess
Is this called 'mid-life crisis? Umm, but I have passed mid-life long ago...
I have my fair share of successes and failures and I hardly blame anyone nor any circumstances
Neither do I believe in Fate [If I ever believe in Providence, I'd like to write my own page]
My backbreaking toil, honesty, diligent & earnest learnings and street-wisdom shall bear fruits
I may not be able to achieve every thing but I shall harvest whatever is/are delivered
Reality is always cruel and harsh; Providence is a 'chance' meeting opportunity
My efforts are genuine and 'bulkbuilding'; a day at a time, a little add to abundance
Some day soon, I will succeed on my own terms
Every little drop fills the ocean

Success Is No Coincidence
there is cause & effect...
We decided to clean up our garden and plant flowering & fruits plants; the results are astonishing
We get dragonflies, butterflies, birds and...bees visiting
The smells of nectar must be the attraction
Our little fish urn is teeming with fishes & fries
Those little pots of plants I experimented are also growing
In total, Spring arrived and re-arrives
The sight of flowers, birds, bees, butterflies, dragonflies..
Even chameleon calms the mind and soothes the Soul
Nature - the natural surrounding must be enhanced
Harnessing the cosmic force gives peace 风水balance
Nature must be protected and manifested, not contaminated
If everyone adds alittle more care
The share will be humongous and positive
The environment needs a relieve
What we think, we become
It's not unlike sowing of seeds; you can't get mangoes, if you plant durian seeds
If you are armed and in battleground, do you expect your enemy to be merciful? Perhaps, but...
Winning friends and lesser friends is better than adding one foe more
The world is filled with love but Human, through selfish plots and schemes, create hierarchy to dominate the food-chain...
Animal Farm and survive of the fittest prevail
Attack is the best defense is the surest way to create more animosity
Israel is bent of attacking and destroying anyone who desire eliminating Israel
The exodus of Mid-East Muslims is a result of the West military machines destroying their homes
Islamic extremists & jihadists, without sophisticated weapons, are responding with body-strapped human-bombs in their hometown likewise
MAD ~ Mutual Assured Destruction ~ This is the nuclear doctrine of deterrence
Worry not; you & I
Someday, when the world ends or should end, you and I will be part of the destruction but nowhere in the decision
Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship Buddha
Be the budding entrepreneur
Be the first mover
Be the rainmaker
Whatever fits; NEVER be the worrier
Worry does not solve problem neither does drunkard
In this turbulent and unsettling world where threats, cohesion and lip-services rule...stay cool, remain calm
Be prepared to pounce on opportunity and change on moment-call
Tomorrow is never promised
In GOD I trust

Everything Ends...
the March is coming to an end...
Many have wings but can't fly ~ penguins, chickens, ducks, dodos
Some have eyes but can't see ~ bats, platypus
Many have brains but never think ~ humans
The world is getting more selfish, elitist, uncaring, greedy such that the 'best' are milking the less-able
The many who 'made it' are guarding and hoarding their gains
Lip-service is a norm & NIMBY (Not In My BackYard) is a given
Numerous doctors read the 'Hippocratic Oath' and became hypocrites
Accountants prepare 'doctored' numbers that is hardly 'true & fair'
Auditors' audit report at best they can; finding frauds is accidental, much depends on 'who is the paymaster'
Political loyalists infringe on the Laws of the Land with impunity
Survival of the Fittest & Rules of the Jungle rule
Society cracks when there is oppression, suppression and covert elimination of opposing voices
Where discontent is voiced, there is an allowance for ventilation of frustration
Gross income inequality coupled with elitists indifference is the sure fire to anarchy
The rich cannot live in a sea of poor
The commoners are only eking and seeking out a dignified living, not fame, money nor power
The American Revolutionary War (The American Revolutionary War had its origins in the resistance of many Americans to taxes), the Bolshevik Revolution (socialism was born because the 'HAVEs' ignore the plights of the 'HAVE-NOTs'), the Cultural Revolution was an attempt to 'hold-on' to political power & the Jasmin Revolution (started innocently when a graduate, illegal hawker dosed himself with oil and set fire after being bullied by the State-police)
Everyone comes naked and shall return naked
The world has enough space for everyone to 'care & share', enjoy some luxury and live harmoniously
The need to lord over others, command and control & dictates another's life is an act of cowardice
History do provide ample space for education and memories whether good or bad
Whatever fit
Most of us have no more than 30,000 days to live
Man proposes, GOD disposes
Let us 'care & share' and spare some thoughts and penny to the less fortunate, less able and less mobile
Nobody wants to be downtrodden, unwanted and live on charity 没有人想看别人的脸色过日子
Like many, I am walking towards the end
I'd like to look back without, or with little, regrets, if any
When my journey is over, I'd like to be remembered as the "Mr CAN"; the incurable positive
My fair share of defeats and glory stop when the March ends
Today is the last day of March....2016, not the end of my march
Like the Master Chef, let us all enjoy & indulge in a bowl of harmonious soup
Having too much or too little leaves bad aftertaste

The Weak Man Is Not A Loser
I'm a flat tyre...
Why is it a flat tyre is painful and uncomfortable? Because everyone is used to its smoothness
Why are wheels made of rubber when other materials are equally good? Comfort & noiceless
The wheel of fortune is filled with ecstasy, uncertainties and is never promised
Getting it right does not equal reward
I have seen it all but until today I cannot stomach some setbacks still
It's not that I am any weaker but from time to time the biorhythm falls into new low
My new low is relatively higher than the average person yet I am 'punctured'
I am sought after for professional advices but many simply 'milked' & disappear
I have my circles of fans, supporters and well-wishers
Not that I am looking for rewards, appreciation and acknowledgement ...
But, alas, I am as human as everyone
I have a big "WHY"; why despite my earnest work attitude, ability and capability, I'm still struggling
Why I always hit the wall and hardly enjoy a full bloom harvest
Drips & drabs ...yes! These don't quench my thirst of satisfaction and recognition aka self-actualisation
I am drained
While I have provided the best and cared for others
I had been shot many times, falsely accused and framed
Even within my family
I can only seek consolation in the Lord Buddha观音
I wriggled into a tiny, warm, cushy corner in my Lord's arm
I hibernate, rejuvenate, recast and return stronger
The human mind is bendable and amendable
But, like every human, someday...I am afraid I may fail
Walking with Buddha and journeying with her is always a Blessing
Buddha is my safe haven and harbor
Whatever!! I will try my best and leave the rest
I shall rest when tired 休息是为了走更长的路
When unsure, retreat, reassess, relief then proceed
I am like a snail moving along with a huge burden above ~ the heavy shell
The snail can't move without its shell & go naked; that's home & protection
Guess, we all have our 'UPs and DOWNs'
Enjoy every moments as good or bad, like day and night, comes and goes
Get up, get going...
The power of God creates wonders
I shall WIN
REWARD is near
If you don't try, failure is a certainty
Try, try, try...and there is a even chance of SUCCESSES
So what if I am a punctured tyre? I can still continue my journey albeit a little discomfort
Why is it a flat tyre is painful and uncomfortable? Because everyone is used to its smoothness
Why are wheels made of rubber when other materials are equally good? Comfort & noiceless
The wheel of fortune is filled with ecstasy, uncertainties and is never promised
Getting it right does not equal reward
I have seen it all but until today I cannot stomach some setbacks still
It's not that I am any weaker but from time to time the biorhythm falls into new low
My new low is relatively higher than the average person yet I am 'punctured'
I am sought after for professional advices but many simply 'milked' & disappear
I have my circles of fans, supporters and well-wishers
Not that I am looking for rewards, appreciation and acknowledgement ...
But, alas, I am as human as everyone
I have a big "WHY"; why despite my earnest work attitude, ability and capability, I'm still struggling
Why I always hit the wall and hardly enjoy a full bloom harvest
Drips & drabs ...yes! These don't quench my thirst of satisfaction and recognition aka self-actualisation
I am drained
While I have provided the best and cared for others
I had been shot many times, falsely accused and framed
Even within my family
I can only seek consolation in the Lord Buddha观音
I wriggled into a tiny, warm, cushy corner in my Lord's arm
I hibernate, rejuvenate, recast and return stronger
The human mind is bendable and amendable
But, like every human, someday...I am afraid I may fail
Walking with Buddha and journeying with her is always a Blessing
Buddha is my safe haven and harbor
Whatever!! I will try my best and leave the rest
I shall rest when tired 休息是为了走更长的路
When unsure, retreat, reassess, relief then proceed
I am like a snail moving along with a huge burden above ~ the heavy shell
The snail can't move without its shell & go naked; that's home & protection
Guess, we all have our 'UPs and DOWNs'
Enjoy every moments as good or bad, like day and night, comes and goes
Get up, get going...
The power of God creates wonders
I shall WIN
REWARD is near
If you don't try, failure is a certainty
Try, try, try...and there is a even chance of SUCCESSES
So what if I am a punctured tyre? I can still continue my journey albeit a little discomfort

Just Try, Keep Trying...
sitting still is impossible...
It's not easy to do nothing, stay still & be indifferent
Guess, the dynamism of cosmic force is the underlying whirlwind
You may stop but the globe keeps revolving
The Stars, the Moon, the Sun ...and our breathe
None stop their role; they continue unapologetically
Time is the best friend
Slow, sure, punctual & needs no reminder
Come rain, sunshine or snow
Life moves on
You can react, create, watch idly, be proactive
Action and inaction
You either get ahead or be pushed along
Some day we will all reach our destination
鲤鱼跳龙门 The Carp that persistently jumps & flips over the Dragon Gate becomes a Dragon; alas, tedious & trying and few can achieve the feat
Like many, I was born poor but I need not stay poor
The world is mine to conquer
Most of us cannot live past 30,000 days yet many spend time idling, complaining, immersing in idle thoughts and actions ...live a dreadful life
I try and will always live in the current ; learn from the past, plan for the future & hope for the best
Yes, I have my fair share of defeats
I wish I can bask in continuous successes and glories
Am I too far ahead of the curve or is success avoiding me? Omigosh, the streak of successes were estopped
May the rain return to a bless the drought strikened path ...
Some day soon, I shall ripen and flower again
I am blissfully ignorant
Walking the path and treading uncharted waters
What I want to achieve is God-given
Man proposes & God disposes
Tomorrow is never promised
Neither do I know if I will still be around
What I am sure is today; staying Healthy, Happy and Keep going
The best is yet to be
It's not easy to do nothing, stay still & be indifferent

To Do Or Not To Do
the rebound came to the commodities market then the stockmarket...
In 10th February 2016, I wrote "Every good deserves another chance.."; well, we see it again in the stockmarket
The rebound was impulsive in price and speed
In 5th February 2016, a random mentioned of 17 stocks, all did well except for 4 ; alas 76% hit with the balance 3 even & one loss...
Everyone wants to make money but few wants to do homework
Is there life or lie in the stockmarket? Your guess...
In general, this world is fairly unpredictable
But, in the long run, the cyclical never fail
Delay? Yes but the impact replace lateness
Sometimes, I wait patiently for the fruits to ripe
At times, I remain indifferent and continue to plough
Waiting faithfully for my rewards...
Sometimes, in vain
I am still waiting for my Lucky Break
My God often tells me to sit it out and wait for my turn
I know because I am worse off financially but I have a healthier body
I spend the downtime keeping fit, working out and staying sane amidst humor
I can only hope ~ like the butterfly at its pupa stage; dead yet alive
Is this what's called the 'living dead 活生生的"
Guess, it's cyclical
发呆 Relax
I do my best and leave the rest
If destiny is time base, then I can't turn the clock any faster
Perhaps, as I mentioned before, it is harder to "Do Nothing 不动，不反，只守。。。静" than to "Do Something 动"
I had tried to do, to react, to preempt like ”不到虎穴 哪得虎子 to steal a cub, venture into the cave/den “, but the results have always been disastrous ...& financially draining
I have learnt to bide my time
Tomorrow is never promised neither will it stagnate
LUCKY ~ Luck is where preparation meets opportunity
I create opportunities
I am proactive
I am always prepared...but, between being smart and lucky
Nothing outstanding can be achieved without the LUCK
I hope Luck is not cyclical
I live best when others live worse ~ one meal a day, water, sunlight and plentiful of motivation
Keeping the mind sane, I share humor and read
A sharp mind needs constant polishing and reminding...
Until the next success kicks in, I am like the hidden gem waiting to be polished
