"I Do" or "I Agree"
My friend answered "I agree" to his wedding vow instead of "I do" (He spoke in Mandarin) .
Many laughed out loud in the church, but then they cheered him on.
The wedding ceremony was smooth and proper, and everyone was happy.
What do you think?
*******
For those who are English educated, wedding vow shouldn't be a problem since question begins will "Do you...?" will automatically be answered with "I do..."
But when the wedding vow is presented in other languages, it undergoes various translation problems. The structures of the sentences become more complex and difficult to understand. Sometimes the bride and the bridegroom need to think through carefully before they answer "I do."
*******
I knew my friend was panicky and he was just too exciting for the big day!
I pitied him as he blurted out the answer "I agree".
I believed he knew it fast, since his face was red hot and he was shaking his head.
I saw him sweating profusely and his hands and legs were shaking.
Then I saw him looking into the bride's eyes and regained his confidence.
I believed the bride must have cheered him on!
*******
Many people will become shy and nervous on an important occasion like this.
They will stumble as they speak and they may not realize what they are talking.
It is time to be helpful and kind, and assist in whatever way we can;
We must not let the wedding ceremony be disrupted by a few mistakes.
*******
I believed the crowd realized their mistake;
They clapped and cheered him on.
It was a smooth and successful wedding ceremony after all.
*******
Some people were of the opinion that the crowd shouldn't laugh at him.
Some said it was okay to laugh softly, as long as it didn't affect the function.
Some preferred to laugh outside the church, after the ceremony was over.
*******
To me, It was okay so long as they knew it was a holy wedding ceremony;
And everyone had to play their role well.
*******
The wedding vow is always the most romantic moment for the couple.
The beginning of living happily ever after.
*******
Some said it's okay to say "I agree";
A man would have considered the vow properly before he agreed.
And they claimed that many who had said "I do" remained unfaithful to their spouse.
*******
It didn't matter to me, whether "I do" or "I agree"
It meant the same thing, as long as it came from an honest and a loving heart.
Yes, "I do agree!"

Would You Unplug The Machine?
You were there in the hospital.
Some relative or friend of yours had their loved one in coma.
The coma patient had been there for more than a week now.
He had been lying there on a sick bed, helplessly and hopelessly.
And he was supported by machine to keep his heart beating and his lungs breathing.
The family looked very worried and heartbroken.
They called him, again and again, pleading with him to wake up,
But he showed no conscious moment and behavior.
He was just lying down there, like a dead log.
The family consulted the doctor.
They were desperate as to what to do.
The doctor shook his head, again and again;
And he give a very slim chance for recovery.
It was a poor or average income family.
The hospital fee was expensive;
They would have problems settling the bill.
The doctor suggested to them to unplug the machine.
And you were there;
Listening and helping.
What would you do as a relative or a friend?
What would you do if the coma patient was very dear to you?
Now some parts of the body had smelled;
Some skins had peeled.
Was the coma patient dying?
Or would there be a chance for him to be alive?
Difficult problems like these happen to many people.
If you are involved, what would you do?
Would you unplug the machine?
Some parents have to let their children die this way;
Some children have to let their parents die this way.
Will you be a part of this?
Would you help to unplug the machine?
Some said we must do nothing but pray. Do you believe in miracles? Do you believe miracles do happen? What if the coma patient wakes up and walk? Will you be surprised?
Some said we must wait until he dies naturally. What if he is still in coma after a few months? Will the family be able to pay the exorbitant fees? Can they afford?
What do you think?
What would you do?
Will you let him and the family suffer?
Or would you help to unplug the machines?

Christmas Shopping and Giving
Do you have problems buying things you don't need?
Do you have too much of the things that you don't use?
What are you going to do with them?
Are you going to give them away?
*******
My wardrobe is full of clothes that I don't wear;
My kitchen is filled with many Tupperware products and free gifts;
And my children are having lots of toys all over their rooms.
What am I going to do with them?
Am I going to give them away?
*******
Have I bought too much?
Am I wasting money shopping?
How about you?
Do you also have problems buying things that you would later regret?
*******
Many of us love shopping;
Many of us keep on buying things.
We buy a lot during festive seasons;
We buy a lot when going on vacation;
And we buy a lot during year-end sales;
******
We buy a lot when we are happy;
We buy a lot when we have itchy hands.
We just can't stop buying;
We just can't refuse to buy.
Oh! What compulsive shoppers we are!
******
We buy things because of the spur of the moment;
We buy things because they are too attractive to us.
We buy things because we can't resist to buy;
We buy things because we just love to buy.
*******
Many of us ended up with things we don't need;
Many of us ended up with things we don't use.
If only we can control ourselves buying,
We would have saved a lot of money.
*******
Maybe it's time to give charity;
Maybe it's time to give gifts to many.
Maybe the things we give can bring happiness;
If we will, if we will.
*******
Oh! How I love shopping!
Oh! How I hate keeping!
And Oh! How I love giving!
Happy shopping, and happy giving then. lol

Loose Clothing
Do you buy loose clothing for kids? I do.
Loose clothing is just fine for our children; they grow fast.
If we buy fit clothing, in no time we will have to buy new one for them again.
Besides, money doesn't grow on tree; money doesn't come easy these days.
It is better that we save some for urgent and imminent needs.
Loose clothing can be used for a longer period of time; it will be nice if it can be used for a year.
Of course, this doesn't mean we will buy them extra large or adult clothing. This will make them look awkward and hilarious.
Loose clothing is recommended for adult too.
Loose clothing increases air circulation, stimulates sweat evaporation and prevents such health issues as heatstroke and heat rash.
I like loosing clothing.
I use it to hide my fat tummy! LOL
Which do you prefer, fit clothing or loose clothing?

Adgitize - World Class Advertising On A Blogger's Budget
Adgitize is an advertising solution for bloggers.
It helps bloggers to get 'world class advertising on a bloggers budget'
The biggest advantage of Adgitize is that it will increase traffic to your blog.
Isn't that why you blog, so that you will be read?
Basically there are three ways to use Adgitize: you register and use the site as an advertiser, blogger, and affiliate.
The whole program is run on a point system; the more activities you do (e.g. posting to your blog, reading other members blogs, advertising, or clicking on advertising), the more points you will accumulate.
At the end of the month, all the points are added together and revenue set aside as payout will be evenly distributed to all the points. The payout is approximately 1 cent for every 5 points.
You won't get rich using Adgitize, but you will make a little pocket money, you will generate traffic to your blog, and you may even raise your Alexa ranking.
Advertisers can place ads in one of two sizes, 125 x 125 and 468 x 60.
Publishers can have up to 10 ads on their site (if they go with the smaller size). The more ads are displayed, the more points they generate.
Advertisers can have their ads displayed for seven days for $7, fourteen days for $10, or a month for $14.
The majority of members find that their points once converted actually pay for their advertising and give them a little extra money.
The affiliate program is very simple. Members make a $5 "finders fee" for every referral that purchases advertising, and they receive $1 each month as long as the advertising is renewed.

HEALTHY TEETH AND SMARTER KIDS, IS THERE A LINK?
by Dr. J. Saladin
As you likely already know, our Greater Sacramento public schools have responsibly informed parents of groundbreaking legislation effective since 2006 which requires children entering public school in either kindergarten or first grade to present proof of having obtained an oral health assessment. So why is the law so concerned about our local schools? Well, this new legislature is actually a national policy. Nationally, over 51 million school hours are missed annually to dental disease, the most widespread chronic childhood disease. Only prevention, as this policy promotes, can help keep our children healthy and help keep them in our schools. As a local pediatric dentist specializing in children’s oral and dental health, every little thing counts towards a child’s overall well being. Therefore, in the spirit of prevention, I would like to contribute a little education to help parents understand the importance of baby teeth.
Many people ask me, why are baby teeth so important if they are all going to fall out regardless? The notion that our own legislature feels so strongly about children’s oral health has much to do with the cost associated with the complications that arise do to dental neglect. The costs are not only fiscal but also social. These complications reach far into a person’s lifetime, effecting learning, speech, physical growth and self esteem. This domino effect of complications is clearly understood by dental professionals, especially those who have specialized in pediatrics. Yet, our public may be less informed of these issues. The personal effects on a child can be briefly addressed below:
• GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT
Baby teeth are an important component in maintaining the space for permanent teeth to erupt normally. Premature loss of baby teeth due to cavities can yield detrimental effects on the growth and development of a child’s face and profile development.
• NUTRITION
A healthy mouth is important towards maintaining a healthy diet. It’s common to see children who suffer from chronic untreated dental cavities also suffer from malnutrition. Children simply can’t chew food if they suffer from premature loss of teeth, chronic infections or chronic pain. This has a long lasting impact on how a child physically develops through adulthood.
• SPEECH
Premature loss of teeth can lead to poor speech development because certain teeth may be missing that aid in proper pronunciation. As a result, many children are not only delayed in their speech progress, but are also delayed at their schools.
• SELF ESTEEM
Healthy smiles can help a child feel better about themselves and the way they interact with others.
Ultimately, our children’s education depends on a number of factors from good parenting to good health. This legislature is a step in the right direction towards awareness and prevention, helping our children stay healthy and confident in our schools.

When You Are Old Enough
How old is old enough?
How old is too old?
And just how old is okay?
Many feel very uneasy when confronted with people asking the above questions.
The old folks don’t always welcome us; they claim we don’t quite understand them.
The youngsters always seek ways to keep us at bay; they claim we are too old to understand.
Then there are those of the some age group; they claim we don’t speak their language and they don’t speak ours.
Somehow sometimes we feel out of place when mixing with people.
We don’t share the common languages, behaviors, affection, ideas, visions, values, or beliefs.
Instead of living in peace and harmony, we prefer to stay away, to remain aloof, or to keep a distance.
Instead of tolerating and learning from one another, we seek strife and conflict.
Everyone is different; we are made to be different.
Everyone has their own ideas; we are endowed with intelligence and ideas.
Some of us may not understand well the older people because of our lack of experience.
Some of us may not understand well the younger generation because of the changing world and regulations.
But we do understand them.
And one day we will know.
It just needs a little time, patience and understanding, and some perseverance.
Maybe sometimes later we will understand.
So how old is old enough? And how old is too old? Or how old is too young?
Many do know; they are nodding their heads.......
Follow the heart......
Take things easy......
Talk less and listen more......
Smile a little, laugh a little, relax and follow along......
Get involved in the conversation when necessary, but don’t dominate and ruin the conversation......
Do hang around and mix well......
And so come the helpful advices......
Don't worry......
Somehow you will know...... when you are old enough.
I smile, rather ruefully to myself......

Stroke Identification
Someone passed me this story:
During a BBQ, a friend stumbled and took a little fall.
she assured everyone that she was fine, when they offered to call paramedics.
She said she had just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes.
They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food.
While she appeared a bit shaken up, she went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening.
Her husband called later, telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital.
At 6:00 p.m. she passed away.
She had suffered a stroke at the BBQ.
Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps she would be alive today.
A neurologist said that if he could get to a stroke victim within 3 hours, he could totally reverse the effects of a stroke.
He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours.
Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify.
Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster.
The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.
Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:
(1) Ask the individual to smile.
(2) Ask the person to talk and speak a simple sentence coherently.
(3) Ask him or her to raise both arms.
If he or she has trouble with any one of these tasks, call emergency number immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.
Another sign of a stroke is this: Ask the person to stick out his or her tongue.
If the tongue is crooked, if it goes to one side or the other, that is also an indication of a stroke.

Be A Responsible Man
Children enjoy a carefree and happy life. They play, socialize and learn better in a safe, caring environment. Children are best served when their parents can agree and plan together for the well being of the family.
It is great and fun to be children. The childhood years and the teenage years always brought along many memorable and exciting experiences and emotions of the past, bringing us to tears and laughter on many occasions.
But there are always the pains of growing up. There will come a time when we have to take up more and more responsibilities and be accountable for most of our doings. Gone are the years of the innocent and carefree life; gone are the times when we can push our burdens and responsibilities onto others.
As we grow up, there will be more burdens that we willing bear for our family, relatives and friends. We do so out of love, sympathy, compassion, goodwill and concern. We love them, treasure their relationships, and we have profound understanding of one another. Nothing really matters except the sincerity and sacrifice of our love for one another.
Of course, there will always be responsibilities that we dutifully bear for social peace, communal harmony, national unity, religious rights and freedom, or other considerations and concerns.
It’s not easy to be an adult. It takes courage and careful consideration to undergo difficult experiences and get wounded most of the time. Everything needs to be scrutinized and analyzed. There are always many responsibilities that a mature man must do.
Learning to be a responsible man is a sensible thing to do.
It is important that we learn it well and be a responsible man to ourselves, our loved ones, and the world at large.

A Helpful Piece Of Advice
In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking, keep to the simple. In conflict, be fair and generous. In governing, don't try to control. In work, do what you enjoy. In family life, be completely present. − Lao Tzu
I was reading the wise sayings of Lao Tzu when I was struck by the above saying. I read and read it over again, I couldn’t help but had to agree with him. I believed he had told the truth.
Earthquakes and landslides are common phenomena these days. There are numerous tragedies and disasters in high places and high-rise buildings. Even single storey house is not without its woes. Some have preferred to live in tents and makeshift arrangements. I believe there is great truth in living close to the ground.
Many have become insane and committed suicide because they cannot deal with life’s problems. They are at their wit’s end and no one is available for their rescue. People, things, events, circumstances aren't difficult by nature. It is our perception of them that makes them easy or difficult. I believe we can tide over our difficulties if we keep to the simple.
Conflicts, misunderstandings, disagreements, tensions and violence can all be avoided if we all learn to be fair and generous. After all, no one is without faults and no one is perfect.
Authoritative and repressive government will not last. People will eventually revolt and refuse to obey. A good government must be able to please the majority of its people, while maintaining some controlling for the good of many.
Work stress and burnout are not uncommon today. Workplace has become a living hell for many. It is taxing and frustrated to do things we don’t like for year after year. It will be better if we can do something we really enjoy doing, while making our ends meet.
Absentee parents and broken families are everywhere today. Family members seldom meet, share together and support one another. Family, friends, and social support systems have slowly disappeared.
Lao Tze was a Chinese taoist philosopher of the past; but he could understand and deal with the problems of his days.
History repeats itself and there are always helpful advices from the past for us to learn.
I believe the above saying is so true, and I share it with you.
Thanks for your time.

A Simple Life
Lately I enjoy a simple life that I lead every day.
I sleep early and wake up before daybreak. I make sure I have enough sleep and a regular sleep schedule.
I write down all that I want to do the previous day (though not in sequence). I carry them out according to my list, making sure that I do the nasty, urgent, and difficult ones first. I then double check my list to make sure that I have carried out all or most of them.
I drink mostly plain water and sugarless drinks. I reduce intake of gas drinks, wine and beers, and I quit coffee altogether.
I eat my regular breakfast, skip regular lunch, and have a light dinner. I have some snacks in between when hungry.
I make it a rule to sleep when sleepy, to rest when tired, to relax when stressed, to eat when hungry, to drink when thirsty, to not do stupid stuff when I don't know what to do.......
Over the months, I have discovered that I have become more energetic and awake during the day, more enterprising, motivated and organized to do my work, more creative and innovative, more relaxed and less tense and anxious. In fact, I am surprised to discover that I can do more things in better ways than before.
I have my late afternoon walk around the lakes outside the town. Though the track is narrow, uneven and in certain area covered with lichen, algae, and moss, I enjoy my brisk walk.
Though there are always people around blocking the way, and hazardous bikers and drivers speeding through, I enjoy my walk; it is a break from my daily routines, releasing my tension and helping me on my weight loss program.
A simple life is worth a great deal.
Sometimes a simple meal or a glass of plain water taste much nicer.
Sometimes a simple way to understand life can make such a great difference......
Away from the office intrigues and politics!
Away from all the nagging, gimmickry, insinuating, in-fighting, quarrel, strife, hostility.......
Away from all the rumor-mongers, thoughtless gossipers, scandalmongers, backbiters, troublemakers........
Back to the nature and live a simple life.

Oh Mother, Thank You
It was two years ago.
Mother passed away peacefully on the 18th of September.
Everyone was around in the hospital on the previous night, praying and crying with her.
Mother was perspiring continuously and breathing heavily with difficulty.
We were worried and kept looking and nudging one another.
Mother looked calm and she talked to everyone of us, always with a sweet smile.
Mother looked thin, tired and pale, and so much older.
It was 10 p.m. when she waved at us, asking us to go back.
But we lingered and stood very near to her.
We prayed together.......
Mother fell asleep.......
It was very late........
Mother woke up and asked us to go back again.......
We held our mother’s hands and bid her goodbye ...... one by one.
It was with a heavy heart and great sadness that we left the hospital.......
Mother passed away....... peacefully early in the morning.
It was on the 18th of September.......
Few brothers were there to bring Mother home.......
Oh 18th of September.......
It will always be a day when all Mother’s children, grandchildren, great grandchildren....... will come together as one to pay her respect and honor.
Oh Mother, thank you.......
Oh Mother, how we miss You.

A Christian
I received the following story through an e-mail. I want to pass it on....
Several years ago, a preacher from out-of-state accepted a call to a church in Houston, Texas.
Some weeks after he arrived, he had an occasion to ride the bus from his home to the downtown area. When he sat down, he discovered that the driver had accidentally given him a quarter too much change. As he considered what to do, he thought to himself, "You'd better give the quarter back. It would be wrong to keep it." Then he thought, "Oh, forget it, it's only a quarter. Who would worry about this little amount? Anyway, the bus company gets too much fare; they will never miss it. Accept it as a 'gift from God' and keep quiet."
When his stop came, he paused momentarily at the door, and then he handed the quarter to the driver and said, "Here, you gave me too much change."
The driver, with a smile, replied, "Aren't you the new preacher in town?"
"Yes" he replied.
"Well, I have been thinking a lot lately about going somewhere to worship. I just wanted to see what you would do if I gave you too much change. I'll see you at church on Sunday."
When the preacher stepped off of the bus, he literally grabbed the nearest light pole, held on, and said, "Oh God, I almost sold your Son for a quarter."
Our lives are the only Bible some people will ever read. This is a really scary example of how much people watch us as Christians, and will put us to the test! Always be on guard and remember You carry the name of Christ on your shoulders when you call yourself "Christian."
Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

When he sat down, he discovered that the driver had accidentally given him a quarter too much change. As he considered what to do, he thought to himself, "You'd better give the quarter back. It would be wrong to keep it." Then he thought, "Oh, forget it, it's only a quarter. Who would worry about this little amount? Anyway, the bus company gets too much fare; they will never miss it. Accept it as a 'gift from God' and keep quiet."
When his stop came, he paused momentarily at the door, and then he handed the quarter to the driver and said, "Here, you gave me too much change."
The driver, with a smile, replied, "Aren't you the new preacher in town?"
"Yes" he replied.
"Well, I have been thinking a lot lately about going somewhere to worship. I just wanted to see what you would do if I gave you too much change. I'll see you at church on Sunday."
When the preacher stepped off of the bus, he literally grabbed the nearest light pole, held on, and said, "Oh God, I almost sold your Son for a quarter."
Our lives are the only Bible some people will ever read. This is a really scary example of how much people watch us as Christians, and will put us to the test! Always be on guard and remember You carry the name of Christ on your shoulders when you call yourself "Christian."
Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

I Finally Enjoy My Morning
It is windy and cold, and my body begins to shiver.
The fan is on no.1, turning around and blowing on my bare back and shoulders.
I can’t remember when is my first time, sleeping without shirt, or how I can enjoy shivering in front of a standing fan. But the sensation is thrilling and fun, making me wake up and start my day in a great mood.
I look at the sky again and enjoy the beautiful landscape.
It is a fine morning, though the mountains are still covered with fog and mist.
The place is still quiet, with the frogs croaking, birds singing, roosters crowing and the distant car sounds.
It had been raining for the past three days, with intermittent sunshine and warm temperatures, and I was getting lethargic, casual, lazy, and easily fallen asleep.
But I can’t deny I enjoy this sudden change of weather, since it is a two week holidays, with everyone around, and I enjoy my quietude and my company of family, relatives, neighbors and friends.
There is much reading to catch up with, many people to see, and various places to visit; there are much considerations, contemplations and reflections, sorting things out carefully and seeing things in a whole new light.
I sip my sugarless hot tea and eat a plate of instant noodle, chicken flavor; a warm tummy is a happy tummy, I smile.
Sitting down in front of my laptop, power it up, I continue to ponder what to do next.
Then I remember an ebook that I have read, telling me that I should plan at the end of the day, and start doing the nasty job first early in the morning.
I smile with a satisfied tummy.
We do need a break from routine sometimes.
A fine holiday morning is just good for contemplation and deep thought, doing things unhurriedly, and seeing things in a whole new light.
I finally enjoy my morning….. after so long.

An Unsettled Mind
An unsettled mind is a suffering mind; a suffering mind is a daily woe.
An unsettled mind makes us helpless and passive; impatience and frustration creep in when we are indecisive.
An unsettled mind may make us feel terrible; it can keep us awake all night without getting any sleep.
But an unsettled mind can be resolved, often over a period of time.
But the waiting can be miserable.
Our van got overheated for the past few weeks.
The radiator had been cleaned and the thermostat removed, but the problem had not been resolved.
The coming Friday our children are coming home for holidays.
Sunday will need another trip to the church 40 miles away.
We need our van repaired badly or we need a new vehicle urgently.
There is no clear answer as to every question we face, and so the hesitation and despondency.
An unsettled mind takes time and effort to resolve.
And time is what we don’t have.
An unsettled mind kills the mind.
It makes me sigh and scream from within.
heheheh ahhahaha huhuhuhu hohohoho hihihihihihihihihi. − sigh

Begging, A Lucrative Career
They were foreign nationals aged between 40 and 80. They had entered the country between 9-12 months ago.
They came to the country on tourist visas but were taken to the streets to beg for money. Some of them made up to 1000 dollars a month from begging at popular spots in the city.
The syndicate, including few women, was busted by the Immigration officers recently.
They claimed that they had been cheated by fellow countrymen who had promised them lucrative jobs in the country. But in the end, they were forced to beg.
It was believed that some local people were behind the syndicate.
One of them was excited about it since she could earn so much money a month.
*******
Begging has also become an organized business for some people in the country; no street or shopping complex will be spared; and babies, young kids and old folks are exploited for begging.
Some just don’t care about honest living, integrity and moral values.
But I am not condemning those who are desperate for help.
What I am saying is that a man must work for a living, and begging isn’t the right way to get it.
Now begging has become a lucrative occupation for some; so are the pick pockets and snatch thieves; so are the house-breakers and car thieves; so are the bank robbers and credit card thieves.
Oh! Just how safe are we in our own country and how secure our belongings?
Everyone is talking about it but not many are doing anything about it.
And the story continues.......

More Than Words
In less than 2 weeks, my children will be back.
It will be another productive and fun time for all of us.
The home will be cosy and warm again, bursting with life, love and joy.
It will be another learning, sharing and growing experiences for all of us.
There is so much to discuss and decide; just about any topic under the sun.
Waiting for holiday season like this always fills me with anticipation and delight.
The home has been getting quieter and quieter with each passing moment.
Sometimes I just looked at my wife and smiled, rather lonely and bored.
Adam wanted a partner and God gave Eve as his wife, and a family to take care of.
Some has said that contentment in life comes with living less with oneself and more for others.
Maybe all of us are born for one another, and for doing good things together.
A time of gathering and celebrating will certainly spur us on to greater wisdom, understanding and compassion.
All the waiting will be worth it to the end.
We have seen our children grow and change, find romance or earn promotions, and go off in new and interesting territory, and it is all for the better.
All the worries and frustrations that have accompanied us have slowly disappeared, when we come to realize that they are in good hands, that our Almighty God is taking good care of them.
I smile with a hearty smile; I am satisfied with everything around.
And I close my eyes and enjoy a moment of peace and tranquility.
There are many things in life that are more than just words, and it will take time and effort to understand and appreciate each one of them.
And yes, more than words....... I smile... and smile again.

If Only The Young People Would Listen
Everyone wants to be the center of attraction. There is this wonderful feeling when the world turns to us for counsel, direction, supervision, reference and execution. Academic and athletic excellences are great helps, so are social skills and the ability to get along with others. Understanding and appreciation play a major role in nurturing and maintaining relationships, so are behavioral standards and virtues in cultivating and consolidating friendships.
I was sitting and leaning over a cemented table, watching several groups of youngsters as they passed by in front of my in-laws’ house. They looked so trendy and stylish, so energetic and pushy, and so dominating and egoistic. I looked at them with a gentle and a hearty smile, remembering that I was young before.
I miss the fun of being young now that many of my teenage friends have gone away. Some have moved to a neighboring town or city, some a distance away, and some have gone for good. Those around me are either too busy with their family or too lazy to move around. We hardly have time to talk about old time and the latest happenings.
We are no longer the center of attraction; the world doesn’t just revolve around us anymore. Now that we have overwhelming and conflicting responsibilities, commitments and obligations to our family, relatives, friends, and others, we hardly have time for personal stuff. Life is no longer to possess all we can, but to give and share all we have. Many of us have to play supportive roles for the benefits and well being of others. Now we talk about the joy of sharing and giving; now we talk more about how to make others happy.
Life is people and life is progress. It will be very pleasing and encouraging to see our loved ones advance and excel over us. We all look for and move on for a better tomorrow, and we sacrifice ourselves for a better future.

Man Versus Food
There is always a limit as to how much we can eat, I told myself as I watched the TV show “Man Versus Food” yesterday.
I enjoy watching how food fanatic Adam Richman travels across America taking food challenges.
I enjoy watching him building up the atmosphere for food challenges.
I enjoy watching him eating with grace and style.
I enjoy watching him eating so much in a short time.
But I believe there is always a limit as to how much we can eat.
And yesterday, for the first time, I saw him lost the food challenge; how frustrating it must be for him.
But he received the big applause from his fans; seeing how they cheered him on made me smiled heartily with pride.
But there is always a limit as to how much we can eat in one sitting or in a day.
I looked at my tummy, realizing that I had been eating like a glutton for the past many years.
"Just eat," some of my friends told me over and again. "Don’t deny yourself the pleasure of eating."
But now look at the outcome........
Now I have problems buying clothing and shoes.
I have problems walking up and down the staircases.
Breathing often has become short, shallow, and rapid.
No, no. Eating isn’t that fun anymore; I need to cut down on food, quietly I told myself.
Forgoing the fun of eating delicious food?! Oh no!
Man Versus Food; that’s fun.
I smile rather ruefully as I looked at my protruding tummy........

What Goes Around Comes Around
I received the following story through an email and I pass it on.
One day a man saw an old lady stranded on the side of the road. Even in the dim light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her Mercedes and got out. His Pontiac was still sputtering when he approached her.
Even with a friendly smile on his face, she was still worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn't look safe; he looked poor and hungry.
He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt. It was that chill which only fear can put in you.
He said, "I'm here to help you, ma'am. Why don't you wait in the car where it's warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson."
Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for a place to put the jack, skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt.
As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She couldn't thank him enough for coming to her aid.
Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened had he not stopped.
Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were plenty whom he had given a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.
He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added, "And think of me."
He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home, disappearing into the twilight.
A few miles down the road the lady saw a small cafe. She went in to grab a bite to eat, and take the chill off before she made the last leg of her trip home.
It was a dingy looking restaurant. Outside were two old gas pumps. The whole scene was unfamiliar to her. The waitress came over and brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair. She had a sweet smile, one that even being on her feet for the whole day couldn't erase. The lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant, but she never let the strain and aches change her attitude. The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger. Then she remembered Bryan.
After the lady finished her meal, she paid with a hundred dollar bill. The waitress quickly went to get change for her hundred dollar bill, but the old lady had slipped right out the door. She was gone by the time the waitress came back. The waitress wondered where the lady could be. Then she noticed something written on the napkin.
There were tears in her eyes when she read what the lady wrote: "You don't owe me anything. I have been there too. Somebody once helped me out, the way I'm helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do: Do not let this chain of love end with you."
Under the napkin were four more $100 bills.
Well, there were tables to clear, sugar bowls to fill, and people to serve, but the waitress made it through another day. That night when she got home from work and climbed into bed, she was thinking about the money and what the lady had written.
How could the lady have known how much she and her husband needed it? With the baby due next month, it was going to be hard........
She knew how worried her husband was, and as he lay sleeping next to her, she gave him a soft kiss and whispered soft and low, "Everything is going to be all right. I love you, Bryan Anderson."
There is an old saying, "What goes around comes around."
Today I sent you this story, and I'm asking you to pass it on. Let this light shine.

Home For Children
Some of us derive great pleasure spending time with children.
Children talk innocently and are always lovely; they play with all their hearts out, and can always make you sing and cry along; they always concentrate their effort and time on what they do, and can accomplished given tasks in a short time; they can share almost anything they have, and are very keen to assist and help others.
Everything is so natural; everything seems so simple; and everything is so fulfilling, pleasing and satisfying.
Now that we have grown, what have we become? Many of us are so artificial and fake; so hard to understand, appreciate, and respect; so selfish and individualistic; and so vulnerable and reluctant to help.
God has created us, provide for us and sustain us. But look what we have become today.
Sometimes I don’t really understand this world. But they said you don’t have to understand it, just accept everything that is. But look at our educational system, our management theories, and our various political parties running the country, and the ever increasing natural catastrophes and man-made disasters lately …..
There is not much good news; things are getting worse. Some said the world is coming to the end; many people are talking about it now.
This is life, don’t argue; just follow the system.
The world has become so ugly and gloomy. But it needn’t have to be like that.
Some said there is still a sanctuary, a place of hope, peace, and joy. The other world is waiting, only if you know where and care to go there.
Oh God, give me the Light, show me the Path, and lead me the Way.
“Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them; for to such belongs the kingdom of God” (Luke 18:16-17).
The children are smiling, laughing and continue to do everything well.
For they are in a home; it is a heavenly home.

Frustration
Feeling frustrated is not unusual; it is part of human nature.
We tend to get upset when we don’t like what life is treating us.
Some people become withdrawn when getting frustrated and stressed; they get worked up when people don’t listen to them or do what they say.
Some people blame it on others when they are frustrated and depressed; they make a scene, cry and say things they don’t really mean to, hurting and embarrassing others.
Some people blame it on their fate; they think they are destined to fail in everything they do; they are slowly brought to accept that they are born a downright loser and a quitter.
Some resort to careless and extravagant spending, uncontrolled eating and excessive intake, causing more personal inferiority, emotional outbreak, and extreme anger.
Frustration, stress, and depression can be overwhelming; it can really dull our sensibility, adversely affect our capability, and bring about chronic diseases.
The next time we get frustrated, maybe we need a quiet place to talk to ourselves or our loved ones.
Harming oneself and hurting others are not good remedies; it will never do anyone good.
The ability to analyze and understand ourselves is what we need, and it can be improved with knowledge and practice.
Prayer and meditation are helpful; ultimately it is the Almighty God that we have to give an account of our lives.
A quiet time is what I need to calm me down; but it is not easy……..

Some people blame it on others when they are frustrated and depressed; they make a scene, cry and say things they don’t really mean to, hurting and embarrassing others.
Some people blame it on their fate; they think they are destined to fail in everything they do; they are slowly brought to accept that they are born a downright loser and a quitter.
Some resort to careless and extravagant spending, uncontrolled eating and excessive intake, causing more personal inferiority, emotional outbreak, and extreme anger.
Frustration, stress, and depression can be overwhelming; it can really dull our sensibility, adversely affect our capability, and bring about chronic diseases.
The next time we get frustrated, maybe we need a quiet place to talk to ourselves or our loved ones.
Harming oneself and hurting others are not good remedies; it will never do anyone good.
The ability to analyze and understand ourselves is what we need, and it can be improved with knowledge and practice.
Prayer and meditation are helpful; ultimately it is the Almighty God that we have to give an account of our lives.
A quiet time is what I need to calm me down; but it is not easy……..

God Exists
I received this email from a friend.
A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed.
As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation. They talked about so many things and various subjects. When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said: "I don't believe that God exists."
"Why do you say that?" asked the customer. "Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn't exist. Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children?"
"If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain. I can't imagine a loving God who would allow all of these things."
The customer thought for a moment, but didn't respond because he didn't want to start an argument.
The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop.
Just after he left the barbershop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard. He looked dirty and unkempt. The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again and he said to the barber:"You know what? Barbers do not exist."
"How can you say that?" asked the surprised barber. "I am here, and I am a barber. And I just worked on you!"
"No!" the customer exclaimed. "Barbers don't exist because if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside."
"Ah, but barbers do exist! That's what happens when people do not come to me."
"Exactly!" affirmed the customer. "That's the point! God, too, does exist! That's what happens when people do not go to Him and don't look to Him for help. That's why there's so much pain and suffering in the world."

Study The Game
I was watching a badminton match.
It was a match between defending champion Lee Chong Wei and Ajay Jayram of India.
I was told it was the first time they met in badminton tournament.
I saw how Ajay won point after point at the beginning of every set.
He looked so very energetic and persistent, confident too.
That young lad looked promising and fairly fast.
Lee Chong Wei was sweating all over, but he looked cool, calm, unperturbed, never angry, and never excited.
I presumed he must be studying the match.
Every game is a match, but every match is not necessary a game.
It needs to strategize and plan wisely,
It needs timely and effective moves,
And it needs some sudden and surprise counter attacks to win.
I saw how Lee Chong Wei won in straight sets.
He had the final triumph.
Every game has a lot of useful things to learn.
We win by our capability and ability to study the match.
And this comes with knowledge, skill, and practices.
If only we are humble enough to learn the game; we may be able to achieve greater height and success in the future.

Difficult Situations
Life is not a bed of roses; it is not a bowl of cherries or a box of chocolate. Life is a succession of lessons that must be lived to be understood; it is a tale of successes and failures.
Some go through life smooth sailing; others have to face many trails and difficulties. Whatever it is, we must get ready.
Different people have different way to deal with difficult situations. Some are tough going and fight their way through; they wouldn’t bow down to pressure and give way. They patiently bear all that is to bear and struggle and fight for survival. Some have thrived well and have come out victors.
Some compromise along the way; they adapt to their difficult situations. They patiently wait for every available opportunity. Sometimes they have to forgo their pride and ego; sometimes they have to give in to every whim and fancy of the authorities. Many have to make many personal sacrifices and let their loved ones down. It is not easy for them, but it must be done. Some have thrived well and enjoy the fruit of their labor.
Some give in without a fight; they bow down easily to pressure and humiliation. They fail miserably and hate the whole experience. Many have ended up a loser and a loner; they live and survive under the shadow of another, and toil for most of their time.
Whatever happens, everyone will meet their own end. And it will all come back to the conscience, when the creatures have to meet with the Creator. And begin to settle the account of their lives.
Oh, difficult situations, everywhere and every time.
Who have never toiled in their lives?

Running Up The Slope
My jogging track has two slopes: a gentle slope and a steep one.
Walking up the slope was difficult from the beginning with oversized and overweight body, and my staggering footsteps.
Lately, climbing up the slope has slowly become easier and quicker.
Then one day a funny idea came to the mind, “Why not run up the slope?”
Thinking it over and getting more optimistic and confident, I decided to give it a try.
As usual, I started my rounds, reminding myself to run up the slopes along the way.
The first try was good; I ran up the slope with steady footsteps in 50 steps.
The second and the third was faster and stronger, giving me more confidence and a better attitude.
I almost slipped on my fifth round but I decided to continue.
It wasn’t easy on my seventh round but I managed to complete it.
My eighth round was my finally round and I finished it in style.
It wasn’t easy; I sweated profusely, struggled with short breaths and the pulse that seemed to be over 200.
I leaned against a palm tree, panting like a dog.
It was a double workout; very nice except for the scorching heat from the sun.
“No pain, no gain,” I told myself silently.
“More to come,” I smiled confidently.
“Yes!”

Why Go To Church?
A church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday.
“I have gone for 30 years now,” he wrote, “and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But I can't remember a single one of them. So, I think I am wasting my time and the pastors are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all.”
This started a real controversy in the 'Letters to the Editor' column; much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher:
“I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals. But I do know this. They all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!”
Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible!
Thank God for our physical and our spiritual nourishment!

Finally I’m 49
Finally I’m 49.
Time flies so fast, and so scary.
Another year, I will be half a century old.
*******
Vaguely I remember the two red colored eggs and the big chicken drumstick that my late mother reserved for me.... every year.
That old lady remembered every of my birthday.
But sadly to say I had never remembered hers, and never once greeted her Happy Birthday!
Now that she is gone, the past memories still haunt me from time to time.
*******
Finally I’m 49.
Standing on my own cross road, I am indecisive as to what to do next.
The past lives are not without their failures, mistakes, and shortcomings,
And the future is filled with anxieties, risks, and uncertainties.
*******
If only I had been more careful and focused in my past, I would have done better.
If only I can be more optimistic, enterprising, and confident of my future, I may do well.
As it is, I still have many wasted years and wasted lives,
Leaving me to mourn, despair and regret for a long while.
*******
Finally I’m 49.
But it isn’t time to complain,
Or blaming myself, others, or God the Almighty.
What has happened is destined to be,
And what will come, will come.
*******
But it doesn’t have to be this way all along,
Life is not just doing what I can and want to do,
It is not just taking thing as it is, or accepting thing as it comes.
Life is not just a matter of bragging about what I know and really know.
It is not just the many feelings and emotions,
It is about living and doing with all my mind, all my heart, all my will, all my strength, and all my being.
Life always has its order and direction.
We don’t do things at our whims and fancies.
Life is not a matter of doing what we want, when we want, where we want, how we want, or with whom.
It’s more than that.
It is self-oriented and self-directed,
It’s people-centered and God inspired.
*******
Finally I am 49,
Still making not much of a progress and success in life,
But I’m really happy and feeling blessed,
Except for the many unfulfilled dreams that keep haunting me from time to time.
Time flies so fast, and so scary.

Like A Comb
After sleep, the hair looks shaggy and tousled.
It’s time to comb the hair.
A comb is a toothed device used to clean and tidy the hair.
It is also used to straighten and smoothen the hair.
It is among the oldest tools found by archaeologists, having been discovered in very refined forms from settlements dating back to 5000 years ago in Persia.
A comb is such a simple tool used in hair care.
But its effect is magical.
A comb has many close and sharp teeth, and many close gaps.
It is useless without its close and sharp teeth, or without its close gaps.
So are we.
We are just like a comb.
Like the close and sharp teeth of a comb.......
We must know and develop many good principles and practices in life.
We must be orderly, well-mannered, and disciplined in our actions.
These are important tools to navigate our way to success.
Like the close gaps of a comb.......
We must also cultivate in our relationship with others.
We must learn and know how to work together, how to tolerate and accept others, and how to live in peace and harmony with others.
If we cannot live like a comb, we will become very stubborn and very unfriendly.
So is in the necessary course of business.
Business needs ethics and lots of hard work to succeed.
Business also needs human touch to meet and adapt to the need of people.
Human management always needs very effective tools and very close human touch.
And so...... As we live and have our being,
And as we manage and balance our lives,
We always learn and practice our many lessons from many simple tools,
....... Like a comb.

Budding and Dying Talents
Thinking back, I sometimes wonder whether I have done the best with my life.
I am amazed at Britain's Susan Boyle, the plain-looking 48-year-old who shot to stardom after singing "I Dreamed a Dream" on "Britain's Got Talent", and the young Taiwanese man, Lin Yu-chun who sings Whitney Houston's “I Will Always Love You”. They make me realize the incredible singing talents that God has bestowed on men.
I am 48 too. But I am not talking about singing. I know myself. I will never do well in this area.
But I believe I have many talents too.
It is just that I have not done the best that is required of me.
If I have dedicated more time and effort in using my talents, I would have done better with my life. As it is, I am left with much to regret.
Sometimes I wonder why I am so impatient with people who do things unhurriedly and meticulously. I always wanted things fast and easy. Now I realize my wrong; I have not done careful enough.
Sometimes I love to do things my own way. I put in great effort and endurance, only to realize my best is not the best.
We all need people to tell us that we still have lots of room for improvement.
We need people to remind us of our weakness and frailty.
We need people to think and plan together the whole operation; we need help and cooperation.
We need teachers, coaches, cheerleaders, and mentors, many of them.
If only we are humble enough to ask for help, we will have lived a better life
If only we are humble enough to submit ourselves to God, He is most willing to teach us our talents.
We really need to know how far our talents can take us.
Oh! My budding and dying talents.
