Someone told this story to me:
There is this grass patch. The grass seeds will stick on the people who walks past them.
A comedian walks past the field and sees the seeds which stick onto his socks. He laughs and say:”what great deed did I do to have so many followers?”
A poet walks past the field and sees the seeds which stick onto his socks. He then made a poem about nature and human interaction.
A poet walks past the field and sees the seeds which stick onto his socks. He then took the seeds back…… and invented the velcro tape.
So who do you want to be? The comedian, poet or scientist?
Can I be all 3? To be able to appreciate all things and happenings as they come by like the poet. To innovate, question issues and find solutions to problems like the scientist. And if I fail, to laugh it off and take failure in my stride like the comedian.
am going through some changes in my life currently and i’m really scared. though i applauded myself for taking that big step to make the change, but there are many times when i wonder if i had done the wrong thing. the new path is seems to be going on a crooked start and i am cannot see what’s ahead. i am beginning to doubt if i would be able to cross those hurdles that lies on the bends that i cannot see from where i am now.
i am pushing ahead without many tools and i am prepared to get bruises along the way… I hope i can find the courage within me to keep pushing ahead and brush off any obstacles that lies in the path… Only then can i reach the end of the path to reach the bigger, straighter route.
then again. the moon will always be there. No matter what hardships i face or how down i feel, the world continues to turn and life goes on as normal… as long as i don’t fall off the cliff, i will get there……….. i will get there!
my mother told me abt this woman. Her husband is a heavy gambler and had a extramarital affair. So she divorced him and worked on 3 jobs to bring up her 2 daughters alone. 6 years ago, she got lung cancer and died, leaving behind her 2 daughters who were abt 16 years old.
The saddest part of the story is, she is not a smoker, but her co-workers are. So she contracted the disease inhaling the 2nd hand smoke and discovered the cancer at a very late stage, and she was beyond rescue.
If the smokers do not treasure their own life, that’s their own business. What right do they have to put others in danger? What right do they have to devastate a family who is struggling to make ends meet by taking away the breadwinner? isn’t this the same as manslaughter?? perhaps the smoking co-workers should be prosecuted.
Smokers out there, pls think about how your actions will affect others. After all, you are not the only people in this planet.
The crater was created by a under sea volcanic eruption and its really huge!! we spent about 1 hr climbing to the top.. but sad to say, the view from the foot, mid and top of the crater looked all the same!! the sea view on the other side of the crater is nothing spectacular either….
what a dissappointing climb…. ![]()
Heard the sun rise view is fantastic from this place… hopefully that will inspire me to climb next time….
