Meaning of life

Are you feeling down and unmotivated in this bright, opportunities-ladden world? Feel lost amidst this global uncertainty? Glad to say you are not the only one. Many are experiencing the same as you.

Marie Callas in her reading for me tells me that what I have to do now is rediscover my direction for life in the next 3months..I think i have identified it, during my meditation last night. Now i feel clearer, and this excites you. It sounds like i'm no longer uncertain at the moment.

So my comment is that we got to remember the meaning we are set out for. Everything may just come together and bind together in pieces. The job now is to find out what is meaningful to you or each one of us, and to define goals around us and then to pursue them.

In short, you just need a plan and some introspection. Marie Callas has helped me, and she speeds up the process enormously.

i am indecisive peson, sometimes

Everyday in life we got to make decisions. We worry if we have decided on the right course. As we grow up, we make life defining moments, like each chapter in a book. Like what faculty to go in U, what first and major job you take up, which person you say yes to in your life, or simply, how much of your life savings to put in to that trade.

I hope you have always felt you have made the right decision. Making a decision and regret about it could be one of the worse things in life. Everybody has lived the experience of making a wrong decision which may come back to haunt you later part in life.

20 years ago Mom said I was the type of person who acted spontaneously and often without thinking of consequences. 20 years later, I still think she is right and i am that kind of person. I do better when I don’t have to think too long before deciding to do something.

One example is that last week, I decided that for the weekend I was going to drive to Kuantan to visit a friend there. He has a house near the seaside! Its a long trip I must say, and after agreeing, somehow inside me told me not to go. I changed a few times. As time wore on, it was already afternoon, and told i gave him a reason that i need to keep an eye on my mom. As I write this, I still haven’t decided when! Procastinating, isn't it? But i know when the "mood" is there, i will go.

Its funny when you think about it, we’re constantly faced with decisions on a daily basis - those small decisions, like how much petrol to top up this time, should i buy this dress, should i stop and say hi to that friend walking down the street, or should i watch the show on tv, and etc...it's life! That's when we know we are alive!

As said, i am not a indecisively rash person. One wrong move and i'd be dead. Marie Callas has even correctly told me that in her horoscope reading of mine. She wanted me to seek the guidance of my guardian angel whenever i am in a junction...i felt blessed to have that angel with me.



that’s the way I see it.

Happy Mother's Day

Today is Mother's Day and it is really a day full of warmth. As usual, moms are treated to a sumptuous dinner, lunch or high tea. Some give moms gifts like necklaces, health products and etc..

However, now i'm not going to extol my mom's virtues as i know she is the best there. As i read the papers, then i realise it is the 1st year anniversary of the Sichuan quake in China somewhere this week. Yes, one year ago, many kids lost not only their beloved mothers, but also their family.

Thousands of children became orphans, many more lost their homes. It was really tragic and every time I look at the pictures or news, my heart sink. This year’s Mother’s Day must be really hard for those kids who lost their mothers. Papers show the kids who somehow survived but some have lost their limbs and are going to be dependent in artificial limbs for the rest of their lives. It's really heart wrenching.

I’m fortunate to still have my mom with me, someone whom I can tell her “I love you”, someone whom I can still rely on (almost everything). This year, I ordered an branded leg massager to be delivered to her on Mother’s Day because I know her legs are aching from hours of standing tending a food stall.

Therefore, if you still have your mother around you, you are really fortunate. Please give her a big warm hug and tell her the three magical words “I Love You” because it’s not hard to say. You’ll never know how much those kids in China wanted to say but never given a chance to do it, anymore…

God bless those children who lost their parents and hope they will be strong and be guided in life all the time. And to those without their lovely mothers around, you know they’re up there smiling at you everyday, the guiding angels.

Happy Mother’s Day!
