A week ago (hehehe.. I can hear Zuly saying, "Don't miss the things that are not there"), I went to Kuching. This was the first time I went there. I went there alone without any companion. I don't know why I made the decision of going there. A student whom I now considered as part of my family offered me a stay at his humble home. I accepted and so off I went into the unknown.
I always blog about the things I saw, heard and felt. Today's post is no exception.

Each and every person that you encounter in life is sent to you by God/ the universe/ spirit to teach lessons and grow on a soul level (from family to co-workers). If you're going through a difficult situation right now with someone in your life, trust that it's a lesson. This individual is your biggest teacher at this moment in time. Regardless of the outcome, you will learn and grow! - Psychic Medium Bill Philipps It's funny how live presents you with the 'teachers' that you either hate or love them. So far, those who were my great teachers are those whom I really hated. Inilah kali pertama saya mencuba untuk menulis blog dalam BM. Jadi kalau ada sebarang kesilapan, silalah ketawa dan tinggalkan komen untuk saya ya... Semalam, tanpa membuat sebarang perancangan, saya telah pergi melawat Putrajaya Floral 2012. Biasanya saya tak akan pergi tetapi kerana minat saya untuk mengambil foto, maka, saya bersama kamera saya yang tak secanggih pun bertolak ke situ. Every morning when I woke up, I would hear the birds chirping away happily outside my window. It is one of the best sound to awake to. I would, then, lie in bed, waiting for my mind to awake fully.
4 months ago, it was a total different picture. I was just like everyone. Awaken to lots of problems. Problems from work, problems from the family, problems from the car, problems from the house, problems from the government, problems, problems and problems. I was like.. okay... alrite.. back to bed. Just as I am about to leave the house, I was stopped in my tracks. I felt a sudden calmness over me. My steps have become slow and I can feel my heart beat has slowed down. It was nice feeling. It was like I am in my own little garden where I am the only person there except him. He is not that big-hearted guy, Pete nor is he my Big Bro Raymie. I bet all of you can't guess who is he. Perhaps Raymie and Azizul would know with me mentioning a garden and a guy.. Ring a bell??!!
It would be nice if you read this while listening to this song. - J
I did it.
Today, June 9th 2012, I took a bold step in going alone to KL to join Reach Out Malaysia in distributing food to the homeless. Why a bold step? I was brought up that going alone at night time is dangerous. I need a chaperon whenever I want to go out. Reason being it is not safe. Yes, it is not safe to out alone. Thus, for many years, I had developed a habit of heavy reliance on people to company me whenever I want to go out especially at night. I would have FEAR and WORRY (which are negative thoughts) if I go out, bad things will happen. FEAR and WORRY only limit what I can do. They will give rise to stress ultimately depression which I have experienced over and over again. This time around, I am going to make friends with fear and worry. I am going to be gentle, compassionate and kind to them so they won't come so often. Whenever fear and worry arise, I would comfort myself so that positive thoughts will arise. This is how to conquer negative thoughts. I feel great because I have taken a BOLD STEP tonight. “If I hold up a glass of water for ten minutes, it will feel heavy. If I hold that glass for 30 minutes, my arm will hurt. If I hold it for two hours, I am a very dumb monk,” chuckles Ajahn Brahmavamso, Buddhist monk and Abbot of the Bodhinyana Monastery in Western Australia. “But” he continues, “If I set the glass down for a few minutes to rest my arm, it will feel much lighter when I lift it again.” _________________________________________________________________________________________________ I guess most of the time I am a dumb person for holding a glass of water for 2 hours. Then I would be complaining non stop about my hand in pain. Everyone of us can never escape from responsibilities, worries and concerns unless you are enlightened. Once we took on the responsibilities, we can never took them off. We would then start to worry about our responsibilities or even concerns about the outcomes. Finally, when we can't take them anymore, we would start to complain, comparing and shoving the responsibilities to the other persons. Then the scenario of her fault, his fault would arise. This is similar to holding the same glass for two hours. |
