My take on the secret

The thing I am afraid of the most is not ghosts or spirits or dying but to end up poor or average. I know in this life I will not end up poor unless one day I hit my head on the wall, lose all my memory and end up not being able to work or live like a normal person. That way I'd probably end up poor, stupid and homeless. Which is much worst!

So currently as I still got my 5 senses, my 4 limbs and a sizable brain size capable of thinking like a normal person, my only fear is to end up average. Can you imagine the horror of being average? Not being able to realize your true potential? I wake up in cold sweat at night just thinking about it. Because of this deep fear of mine, the only option in my life is to end up rich and successful, not just rich and successful but filthy rich and mega successful with superstar fame! Sounds ludicrous?

This is my take about the secret to life. I'm sure I'm going to attract alot of negative energy because of this posting, but nobody knows me, so what the hell?

I don't believe in God. But I do believe in the universe and a higher power, but that doesn't mean I believe there is a God. There is nothing wrong believing in God. Its just that I don't believe in God, thats all. To me, God is an object, an object for people to praise when things go their way and when they achieve something great, an object to blame when something goes wrong, an object to hang on in desperate times, a glimmer and ray of hope. Does it really exists? We may not know as long as we are living.

This is my take on life. Life is all about energy flow. Everything in the universe happens as part of a plan, as part of a system that will keep on evolving and evolving till infinity. Some people call it karma, I call it energy and the flow of energy. We flow positive energy out, we attract positive energy. We flow negative energy out, we attract negative energy. It's like an invisible force field. We receive exactly what we receive.

It simply means, if we do good for people, people will in turn do good things for us. If we respect people, in turn people will respect us, if we appreciate people, people will appreciate us. However there is a catch... If we do good for people, the people we do good for may not do the same for us, but others will. It's the same for all other examples I have given. It's not in direct proportions. You may ask why? Well this is why... For example, we flow out positive energy to the recipient but the recipient may not be in the state to flow back the positive energy to u because they are in a state of negative energy. Thus, they are not in the 'position' to give back to u the same energy u have given to them.

However, another person who has the correct energy flow will flow it back to you. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, it could be a year's time or 10 years time. It's as a response to the energy that you have flowed out to someone at a particular time.

Everything is about energy. Love is energy, passion is energy, hate is energy, determination is energy. Everything in this universe is about energy and the flow of energy. Like the movie Avatar, I believe that in this world too, everything and everyone is interconnected with the land. We humans probably have not learnt to master that skill yet, or probably some already have. I know I haven't.

Some call it the law of attraction. People rave about the secret. What is the secret? If it's a secret then why is everyone talking about it openly? To me, the secret is plain and simple, its all about energy and the flow of energy. If we flow out positive energy, we will attract positive energy and vice versa. There is nothing more complicated than that.

Such a sad tragedy

I wish to extend my deepest condolences to the surviving family members. Here is an average everyday family in Malaysia, just like to rest of us, trying to live our lives in ways as normal as we can, hoping that our family is safe everyday from any harm that may come. Lives were snatched away selfishly in this tragedy.

To the surviving family members, the tragedy that befell your family I'm sure none of us would want to happen to our own, I for one would not want that too. I feel very sad every-time I hear news like this, news which could happen to anyone at anytime, even me myself and my family.

Although we are total strangers and will never get a chance to meet each other by design, I wish to extend my deepest condolences to you. What I can say is, both God and time will heal the pain this tragedy has caused. Your loved ones may be gone physically from this world, but they will live on forever in your memories and your hearts. One day when all of us are standing at the gates of heaven to be judged, may you have a beautiful reunion with your family members who have left this cruel and unkind world.

You will hug them and tell them how much u have missed them and they will smile back and tell you they are safe in God's hands and they have waited for you here all along. You will shed a tear and they will gently kiss it and make all the pain go away.

I always believe the reason our loved ones leave this world suddenly is becos God has a job for them and want them to assume their 'positions' on a short notice.

I pray to God that you will have strength to live another day, to do great things and touch lives in the process. I pray to God that you may have the strength to smile a smile that will light up the world, so that when you are gone, people will forever remember how your smile made a difference in their lives, made a difference in the world.

Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul; He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil, my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

May your souls rest in peace, Mr. Roland Wee Seng Hock, Mr. Joash Wee, Ms. Jeslyn Wee, Ms. Jacinth Wee & Mdm.Lim Kim Boon. I do not know any of you and will not have a chance to know any of you but in your photos, your social networking profiles and sites dedicated to you, I can see that you were splendid and well liked people, people I'm sure I'd like to be friends with if you were alive.

Nevertheless, I want to dedicate this song you. Maybe we may have a chance to greet each other, the day we stand before our maker to be judged at the gates of heaven, in the kingdom of God.

When I get to where I'm going - Brad Paisley and Dolly Parton

When I get where I'm going
on the far side of the sky.
The first thing that I'm gonna do
Is spread my wings and fly.

I'm gonna land beside a lion,
and run my fingers through his mane.
Or I might find out what it's like
To ride a drop of rain

(Chorus:)
Yeah when I get where I'm going,
there'll be only happy tears.
I will shed the sins and struggles,
I have carried all these years.
And I'll leave my heart wide open,
I will love and have no fear.
Yeah when I get where I'm going,
Don't cry for me down here.

I'm gonna walk with my grandaddy,
and he'll match me step for step,
and I'll tell him how I missed him,
every minute since he left.
Then I'll hug his neck.

(Chorus)

So much pain and so much darkness,
in this world we stumble through.
All these questions, I can't answer,
so much work to do.

But when I get where I'm going,
and I see my Maker's face.
I'll stand forever in the light,
of His amazing grace.
Yeah when I get where I'm going,
Yeah when I get where I'm going,
there'll be only happy tears.
Hallelujah!
I will love and have no fear.
When I get where I'm going.
Yeah when I get where I'm going.

I bid you Au Voir~!

Happy Birthday to the King!

Happy Birthday to the King! The DYMM SPB YDP AGONG to be precise. It stands for Duli Yang Maha Mulia Seri Paduka Baginda Yang Di-Pertuan Agong, which I reckon would translate to His Royal Highness The King of Malaysia.

Now, the only 2 other places (other than Malaysia) I have lived in my life are Singapore and Australia and given the short time I have been around in this earth, I reckon it's quite something, considering within this 3 countries, I have stayed in around 30 different houses in the short 3 decades + 3 years of my life. Amongst the 3 countries I have lived in, I reckon Malaysia is one the most unique, not because I was born here, but the country itself to me is rather special. Why, it's one of the few countries in the world where you have a King as a ruler of the land.

I hear people talking everyday bout how bad the country is being run, how a certain political party is doing this to a certain race and not doing that for another race, personally I'm not really bothered about all that. To me, I have never been given an unfair chance or have been treated unfairly or exploited ever before while living in Malaysia. Well, sometimes you may come across a case or two about someone being treated unfairly or needs not being taken care of hey, its our job to look out for number one, not anybody else.

I truly love my country, never have any place given me the opportunities to be who I want and do what I want (within the boundaries of the law of course).

This is taken from Wikipedia.org lest we forget:

BAHAWASANYA NEGARA KITA MALAYSIA mendukung cita-cita hendak :

mencapai perpaduan yang lebih erat di kalangan seluruh masyarakatnya ;

memelihara satu cara hidup demokratik ;

mencipta satu masyarakat adil di mana kemakmuran Negara akan dapat dinikmati bersama secara adil dan saksama ;

menjamin satu cara liberal terhadap tradisi-tradisi kebudayaannya yang kaya dan berbagai corak ;

dan

membina satu masyarakat progresif yang akan menggunakan sains dan teknologi moden.
MAKA KAMI, rakyat Malaysia, berikrar akan menumpukan seluruh tenaga dan usaha kami untuk mencapai cita-cita tersebut berdasarkan atas prinsip-prinsip yang berikut :


KEPERCAYAAN KEPADA TUHAN (Belief in God)

KESETIAAN KEPADA RAJA DAN NEGARA (Loyalty to King and Country)

KELUHURAN PERLEMBAGAAN (Upholding the constitution)

KEDAULATAN UNDANG-UNDANG (Rule of Law)

KESOPANAN DAN KESUSILAAN (Good Behavior and Morality)

I truly believe that if all of us are able to follow the rukun negara, there will be less crime, less hatred, less chaos and more harmony, peace and unity in our land.

MALAYSIA, I LOVE YOU!
