Hatred can eat a person up.

~~It's paraphrased from what I just saw.

Hmmm....it's so important that we do not get consumed by hatred, because the ones that ultimately suffer are ourselves.

In the course of my work recently, I got to know 2 employers. They share 2 things in common - one is the ability to recognise good workers immediately and the other is that they both have good hearts.

New Beginnings

I watched a reality show this evening entitled "New Beginnings." A 37-year-old man was invited to today's live show. This gentleman talked about his struggles, problems, betrayal by his family and friends, etc. What struck me was that he looked way beyond his years. Hmmm...the cares of this world can indeed make a person look (way) beyond his years.

If there is something that you would give up everything for, something that would make you feel sure about why you're on this planet now, and utterly joyful in it, then commit yourself to it.

Dare to Dream

Those who successfully rise above extreme challenge are those...(who) continue to act from the heart and the gut, accepting that they can and will indeed be powerful, effective vehicles of beneficial change in the world.
~~Kathy Caprino (in her book entitled "Breakdown, Breakthrough")

Hmmm...what powerful words (those in bold)...

Dare to Dream

Following your dreams requires guts and an amazing amount of tenacity, courage, perseverance, and patience.
~~Kathy Caprino (in her book entitled "Breakdown, Breakthrough")

Dare to Dream

Right now, I am reading a new book entitled "Breakdown, Breakthrough" by Kathy Caprino. It is a good book that I would recommend to all women, particularly professional women who want to live a life of passion and purpose.

In this book, the author quoted the following words from Mahatma Gandhi:-

A No uttered from deepest conviction is better and greater than a Yes merely uttered to please or, what is worse, to avoid trouble.

Dare to Dream

Courage is not the absence of despair; it is, rather, the capacity to move ahead in spite of despair.

Thankful...

I just read the news of the Polish President's death...life is so unpredictable...I am reminded of how God had protected me in the past...there were several times when I was nearly knocked down by cars becos I used to have the habit of reading while walking/crossing the road. (Now, I send text messages, etc, while walking...P)

Breaking Free from the Shackles of My Past

Hmmm....I've almost completed the melody for this song...just left the prelude part...I'm planning to start selling my songs in the later part of this year via the internet, because selling them online requires only a relatively small marketing budget. I can do the recording myself but of course, I would have to make sure that my room is sound-proof first. Hopefully, it's in line with God's will. But I'm pretty sure that this is in line with God's promise that I'll have a colourful future.:)

Qi Cai De Wei Lai (Colourful Future)

One other Chinese song that I wrote recently is the above. It is based on God's promise to me. Life, to me, is meant to be colourful and not boring.

Dare to Dream

A life that is lived for self and self alone is a life that is lived in vain.

Ni Shi Wo De Bi Nan Suo (You Are My Refuge)

I have just penned two Chinese songs, one of which is the above. It is a song about God's protection from evil people's scheming ways. I pray that it will especially minister to people who have to face such people daily, which can be a mental torture.

Dare to Dream

A person who desires to be truly happy must learn not to be a people-pleaser.
