Beautiful Sunrise

We live in such a beautiful place. I just love the sunrise as it gives hope and belief to me on each new day.


Did you see the sunrise this morning? When was the last time you actually watched a sunrise?

So take a few moments to view the physical evidence of the daily renewal of peace and hope and life. Stand at the window and wait. Yes, we may need to go elsewhere to see a truly spectacular the horizon is always blocked by buildings...

Once you have experienced it, take hold of this positive experience and consciously process the feelings and sensations into a hidden memory, one that you can retrieve at any time you need a lift, comfort, or peace.

True happiness

Reading a latest letter from Marie Callas makes me think of this question. What kind of life do we have to lead in order to be considered as truly happy. Is it living in a big house, driving a luxurious continental car, buying items from shopping malls without ever checking the price tags? Right now, many of us are not that wealthy, so dreaming of this kind of life is surely the right definition of "happiness".


What I would like to ask is that how many of these people are truly happy? A lot of times we see these people engaged in power struggles, or some sort of court cases. Do you think deep inside this is true happiness? It often turns out that due to our materialistic way of life and thought, true happiness is located outside of the self. We claim that we have been dealt bad cards but if certain circumstances were to change, we would find true happiness.

If only we could meet that perfect mate, we would be happy for all time. If only we had a better-paying and more satisfying job, we would ask for nothing else in this life. If only we were rich and famous, all our problems would fade away.

Don't get me wrong. I am not saying that striving for happiness or success is inherently evil or harmful. Quite to the contrary. Looking for success is a healthy activity for us. Yet I think we should take all with a grain of salt; everything should come with a warning sign attached to it. Be happy with who you are and what you have and enjoy the process of looking for happiness because you never know, in the end, when you cross the corner and reach your goal, it may not be what it seemed in the first place.

Bit of Luck

It's been sometime since I came here. Does this mean the balloon has been deflated? Maybe my life's is so smooth that I don't need to blog to vent frustration anymore?

Maria Callas still writes to me regularly. Recently I read with anticipation that she is going to send me a free CD full of magic words and powerful principles of the Law of Attraction. Yes, I have got the CD and i listen to it while I am driving on the way to work.

Do you know, life has been good last 2 years. Think positive and get rewarded. It is up to you to choose how life wants to bee. Generally, I feel the economy crisis does not really impact this country a lot. Maybe our trade with other countries are no longer strong as before or we are more self sufficient? Importantly many of us are now working in Singapore and that brings foreign cash to this country too. I think that itself is a buffer to the economic stability of this country. On the whole I feel we are stagnant since the current PM gets into office. What you think?

I went a small lottery last weekend, I am so happy the lucky numbers given by Marie Callas brought me luck. Not a lot, just RM300. So I brought my family for some bowling sessions. It has been a long time since I last bowled. For two glorious hours I laced up a pair of slippery shoes and threw a ball down a greased lane trying to knock down as many pins as possible. And, as expected, I was rubbish at it. Yes I am getting fatter sad to say. But as long as the kids are happy, i am very happy. They are really hard to pleased nowadays!

Lastly i share this wonderful to all of ya.

"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense."

–– Ralph Waldo Emerson

A process and a state

Great article from Marie Callas! I agree absolutely.

A state refers to something temporary that is likely to change, such as, for example, ice that melts once the temperature rises above 0° Centigrade.

This means that if you imagine riches as a state, you will always be stressed – more or less consciously – by the idea of losing it all.

On the contrary, a process is something that is with you throughout your life and never fails you. By opening up your heart and your mind to wealth, you will build up a feeling of riches inside you that no one and nothing can take away from you.

Tell yourself that enjoying financial success is being able to look yourself in the mirror at any time and seeing a worthy person you look up to as a model to follow.

You must believe that Life has given a divine glow to every human being. You can and should seize this wonderful and unlimited creative heritage that lies within you, transforming these spiritual riches in you into external material benefits.

You are here on this earth to lead a full and rewarding life. Real riches are the result of a frame of mind through which all we need comes to us without too much effort, so that our desires can be fulfilled. Riches are part of the reality and the goal of this guide is to help you to see the nature of this reality.

It is important you understand this: thoughts are also impulses of cosmic energy with the power to manifest themselves – for good or bad – in the real world. And it is not because they are invisible when they appear in our minds that they have no impact on the real world.

Let's Party..happy new yeaR~

I wish Marie Callas a very happy new year! Thanks for helping me to be better in 2008 and I wish more people will benefit from your help in 2009. May there be world peace too! relly hope for a year of harmony.... we have too many bad news last year.

Looking back...

2008 is ending soon, in just a few days. This is really a tumultuous year. In fact, every year is chaotic in terms of world events. Negative big events are always hogging the headlines each year. This year is dominated by the financial crashes, and the US election and the Mumbai hotel siege. Despite these, I am sure there are happy events around too.

It is always happiness and sadness taking turns to appear in life. Nothing is the same all the time. We seek to be happy no matter what's the background we from. Hence, when we look back, they give us great joy and pleasure to see and feel how things used to be in the past.

Most importantly, the right attitude is that do not assume that your future will be bad just because you have a tragic past. If you think in this way, you are basically telling your mind what kind of life you wish to have in the future.

So as you look back into the past while you are thinking about your life, do you recall more of your good times or more of those bad times?

Do you know that by stirring up old memories often, especially those bad old memories, we are making a conscious renewed contact with the involutive force of the Universe?

Some people just do not let go of the bad times and experience and constantly replay it in their minds, and in the end, getting disillusioned or are full of vengeance.

By focusing some your positive experiences is a great way to heal your past wounds spiritually. Throwing always those sad memories right to the deepest depth of your mind will surely make you let go of those hurtful and caustic moments of your life.

Replace it with new ones full of inspirations and happiness. It is an empowering way to embrace life and move on. This is the key that opens your life to happiness and inner peace.

Talking to myself

Sometimes I talk to myself. No, I'm not mad. Yes, it does freak my wife out when i talk to no one but myself suddenly. Really, when i do that, i'm just self talking to myself so that I can sort my thoughts out. I find it easier to make a decision when I do that. This is nothing crazy at all.

In fact, I recommend people to do that. For example, before your semester presentation, do to a corner and tell yourself, you can do it and you are going to impress the teachers in your presentation. Successful people do that constantly i read somewhere. They encourage themselves, give themselves surprises and presents as forms of positive self support. When they face problems, they do not falter easily. Their positive self-talk give them much confidence and prod them to move forward bravely.


This is one way to push yourself on, so that in really adverse time, when you are alone, you still maintain that fire in your belly to drive on, so sticking to something you passionately believe is possible.

Believe in yourself positively. Have a firm grip of your mind so that it works for your positively. Yes, positive self-talking will change your perception of yourself.
