Who stands in your way?

Just because people treat you
like a villain, or an ogre or just some loser
doesn’t mean you are one.

What matters most
is what you think
of yourself.

If there’s something you really want,
or someone you want to be,
the only person standing in your way is you.

"just quit la..."
............
"this is inhumane..."
.........
"no life leh...."
............
"you are so stupid to persist in this...."
..............
"dun act as if you are very determined...."


I only know that since I have made a choice...I shall stick to it
because this is how I thought it should be

Some may say that it is stupid to persist in something which one know its not the best decision made in the first place.................but is that really so?....

wise or stupid.......always changing

if one is to constantly seek out a better choice, will there be an end to it?
always looking for a better job...
always looking for a better spouse...
always looking for a better deal...
always looking for a better life...

always assuming that there is a better one out there....never believing in making effort to create the best from whatever there is

and so...

always looking...but forever missing the point....which is NOW

in now there is no good or bad...it just is
in now there is no hope or despair...there is only 1 breathe at a time
in now there is no room for nonsense...there is only 1 task at a time



Just want to remind myself that no one is really right or wrong...
there is no need to put too much emphasis on that bullshit...
just let go and flow...

silly?....but difficult....yet possible

Advice from Uncle Ben and Aunt May

Uncle Ben: Peter… you’ve never been in a fight in your entire life.
Peter: So. Have you?
Uncle Ben: A few times.
Peter: Bet you were a regular Bruce Willis, huh? Kicking butt and taking names.
Uncle Ben: I was a young idiot who learned the hard way that violence is a dead end.
Peter: What do you mean?
Uncle Ben: Peter… these stories are for fun. A way for me to put my troubles aside and spend a few hours in fantasyland. But is the real world? The world we have to deal with every day? It’s nothing like what you see in the movies. Being a hero isn’t about punching someone or blowing up the bad guy. It isn’t about revenge – or who’s got the biggest muscles. It’s about putting other people first. About trying – even when you know… that you’re going to fail. Most of all it’s about doing the right thing – no matter what anyone else thinks.



Peter: Aunt May… What’s fear?
Aunt May: That’s a big question, Peter. Fear is a lot of things. Sometimes, it’s a protective mechanism that keeps us safe from danger. Other times, it paralyzes us – keeps us from moving ahead with our lives. People often feel fear for their lives, or for loved ones. Sometimes those fears are rational, sometimes not. It’s hard to face your fears… but sometimes, you must. Then, you can be at peace with them.

time for some reflection (2)

6 months lo!!

time flies...

this 6 months have been an interesting one

get to interact with many people from different walks of life...from toilet cleaner to the head of a company....

saw many different faces....some angelic...some demonic

sometimes everything seems so meaningful but sometimes all seem nonsensical

some days i feel so motivated yet some day i feel so dejected

one thing for sure ...

the road ahead is long...

so let me discard all the nonsense and move forward 1 step at a time!
