The dragon year has jus passed, usually the year with the most new borns, as believed in the chinese culture to be an auspicious year, n of cos results in a more heated competition for this batch. Yet the papers are revealing white papers generated on sg population woes. The projection seems worrying, indeed a teething issue which is almost unsolvable, is it?
Settling down from the holidaying mood, with an extension of the festive mood of cos, thus the reluctance of working over wkends to catch up with the backlogs. Shrugs, at most work over the cny off days lo...these 2 wkends shall be spent on non-work related stuff which are equally overwhelming if not more. Procrastinating tho...sigh...
Love to read great articles, some really write well. A silent wow escaped my lips when the visualisation becomes instantly vivid or the thought well-expressed, an immediate claim of similarity n attachment.
Managed to enjoy and admire sg's nature beauty too during those granted minutes or hours in betw. Play at times, work at times; peaceful at times, rowdy at times; persistent at times, letting go at times. Indeed without this mix, u wont be enjoying life. Tough to play referee for when is which tho. Real travel also require a mix of spontaneous travel and systematic planned trips isnt it? Real letting go is accepting and embracing what comes in your way, be it magnificent or boring, both can be noteworthy. There is a deadline to trips, thus u try to soak in as much, enjoy as much, recharge as much. Then try putting a deadline to daily lives, then we can probably live a fuller life. Discovering wonder and insights are part of the process, spreading kindness and happiness too. Both travelling or not. One sees wonder with an uncluttered mind.
From a forum, it was advocated that one doesnt need to be better to help others. The givers and receivers need to understand this tho. Givers feel inferior at times, apologetic that they arent able to help, while receivers at times think that others arent able to help cos they are not them. Of cos most are appreciative of the offer, but the outcomes are yet achieved coz of the barriers which are often not necessary. Give and receive freely.
I was related to a dialogue, u always see the best in people, it is your virtue and your downfall. So me? I know quite a few pple who are like tat too. I have also gotten many answers to the qn: what csn i do to be a better person. Even my 7yr old cousin have an ans for me! to be less sianz abt work. Surprising...amazing perceptions. Not untrue when pple say u are who pple think u are. A promise to her that i will love work, dpds on how it is handled anyway, without it, life could be boring. It is mission vs goals. Purpose and identifying meaning matters. It is also weird when u see kids/teenagers acting like adults while adults acting like kids/teenagers. Witnessing this drops some pointers. Despite preferences, it is embracing variety n changes.
