07 november Laws and Freedom in the name of Christianity, man should do this or not do that. in the name of Christ, man have true freedom. that's the big difference between a Pharisee and a Christ's disciple. rules and regulations are in black and white. easy to read. perfect for simple minded. bad if you are clever. true freedom is a concept, often between rights and wrongs. you are free to choose but you really are expected to choose the right side. but the rights can turn out to be wrongs. that's why we need love and forgiveness. 02 november 10% perfect day in a cold damp little room, hides a bleak dark boy radiant light chases the darkness as the sun awakes morning air filled with sweet aroma of greens and roses enter the scene the boy dancing with the sun so much fun that he has and so hot he felt he laid down his shirt and sang what a glorious perfect day this is enter another boy to share the sun and dance enter some more boys and girls to the scene to the boy, the same sun is not the same the same air is now different no longer does he wish to dance he wished that these people had never come exit the scene the same boy under the same sun enter he to the same cold damp little room 16 oktober The right perspective admitting mistakes takes humility and courage. it is like you being slapped on one side of the cheek and you are tough enough to turn the other cheek and say "is that all you got" and slapped again. we should be so thankful that we can make mistakes in life. that's how human learns. we make mistakes, learn and recover. if only time allows, you can repeat it many times, but not for ever. we don't have eternity. men and women have life expectancy of 75 years. you might say, wow, that's a long time. yes it is but no it is not. because you can drastically cut down your life expectancy with a single life changing event (e.g. getting hit by a car) or a series of life changing events (e.g. smoking). death can be a good thing. it puts everything into their correct perspectives. it puts the important/urgent people/matters into their respectable orders. it helps us to prioritize your life. it stops us from being arrogant and from imagining we are the masters of our destinies. time is not always on your side, do you see the urgency to admit and repent. what is the thing you really hate yourself for doing it. stop it at once. what is the thing you should do next day, month or year. do it now. do it today. just do it. take the chance. there are only limited number of chances. take the risks. you have little to lose. if you do it soon enough, you might still live to ripe the fruit of your own seeds. 30 september Admit mistakes sooner in the name of investments, i am into the game of speculations. i never thought i would but there you go. there are 2 things i couldn't learn when i invested in stocks in a vanilla sense. namely, they were cut loss and dollar cost averaging. but all in all, i didn't appreciate the importance of time. without the discipline of cutting loss and the regular chipping in, my stock investment has always performed poorer than my mutual fund. on one hand, i made mistakes and didn't admit them and let them snowball. in time, i made a loss. on the other hand, i took limited risk regularly and kept doing it for years. in time, i made a gain. investment is so mimical to life. there are so many moving parts in our lives that we get confused and scared of making mistakes that we end up doing nothing and achieve nothing. how futile. rather than chickening out of this game of life altogether, we commit ourselves little by little and gain grounds bit by bit, then one day when you look back, you can honestly say to yourself, i have lived. i used to know this person who didn't like any criticisms, didn't like weight scale, didn't like taking photos and had become so fat that people started mistaking her for pregnancy. i have this doctor friend who worked in a hospital. one day, he saw this patient and told her she was overweight. the female patient couldn't take it in and screamed, "are you calling me fat?!!". the doctor replied in a stern voice, " you are not fat. you are obese." it is ok to make mistakes. but once they were made, it is not ok to hide your head in the sand and pretend everything will be ok and stop moving. you need to learn from mistakes and keep moving. we all need to keep moving. admit, analyze and advance, these are the 3As if you want to take your life seriously and enjoy it. 16 september Mutants as X-menif you walk in to one of many men's workshop, you would listen to a lot of their shortfalls. men don't communicate. men are shovanistic, arrogant and have massive eagles. they eat too much junk. they drink too much. they don't look after themselves, let alone look after others. they are just not what they meant to be. they are just not men enough. sadly, i am inclined to agree. men are like mutants. they are born of human but somehow got twisted and turned into some hideous monsters. they can become introverted, emotional, immature and violent. they live alone in their little virtual worlds and play with their expensive toys. they are not very good in speaking words, expressing feelings and picking up responsibilities. commitments are out of the questions. such as X-men. X-men were called mutants before they were called heroes. they are unique and each possesses different super power. they have personalities, strengths, weaknesses, love, hate, fears and frailties. gifted as they may be, they are rejected by the norm and prosecuted as threats to the society. on their own, they are of nothing. on their own, they are doomed. we are all norms until the people around us found our jagged edges. have you felt that the whole world was going against you. have you ever felt that no one could understand you and you are all alone in the world. self-pity is emotional. self-pity a typical storyline to turn an X-men into a villain. there are two camps in the X-men movies. the evil camp summons mutants who are filled with hatred and self-pity and want to use their power to take over the world. however, there is the good camp of which welcomes mutants who experience troubles with their power and emotions and to nurture them into real super heroes. men need visions, leaders and strong voices. they need to learn to control their feelings and power and channel them for better, greater use. they need to learn to live with one another and appreciate their talents as blessings. men need to know thy self, appreciate what is right and do the right things. |
