What makes a person happy?

What makes a person happy?

was having a conversation which an elder who i respect alot; a person who has accomplished so much in terms of his career, yet appear to be such a humble person. and he brought up this question to me..and indeed, i can say now that i am happy...

it does not matter where you are, or what you do, but what matters most is who you are as a person altogether. two person can be in a similar situation but both may define the whole situation in two different manner, ie either a person can be so happy with what they have now, or the other way around. it all depends on your own definition of happiness.

and i seriously respect such thoughts, especially coming from someone so highly ranked in the education line, and yet, a humble personality to sit and share their experience with you. how they have started from ground zero to be where they are today. all with a simple drive of determination and sheer focus.

a fruitful day indeed. thank God for today. Amen.

unworthy

It's been three months since my last post.... so fast time flies..... Well, i wouldn't want to speak about what happened over the past three months.. but rather speak something very randomly that is bonggling the mind.. How often do we do our best in whatever tasks that is given, but the credit still goes to someone else? as much as we choose to ignore it, the dust is never easy to be bitten... the effort and time to help, and yet, those who were suppose to do it, choose to ignore it, while i become the scape goat for all the nonsense that wasn't even mine in the first place. it is really unfairness to its maxmum. and as much as it is against my life principle to be brought down so easily, but i just could not do much, knowing that i am legally bound to what is being contracted to me.. haizzz..life and all its obstacles... as much as i hope to persevere through all these, as much as i hope to leave as well... So much that i have gone through the past 9 years, and ne

I'm Not The Only One

As I am writing this post, the background music of Sam Smith's I'm Not The Only One seemed perfectly representing my emotions deep inside...well having said that, I have to be honest that i have been at doubts for various things lately and the song is just reflecting exactly and summarizing everything... and that is just what songs are really to me... i noticed that of late, i tend to really pay attention to the lyrics of the songs rather than just the tune and rhythm, and it is very interesting to understand the whole meaning of the song altogether. there is certainly alot of things being said and pen down in a song, and maybe only the writer or music arranger of the song would understand, apart from the singer itself, but when we do take time to listen to the lyrics, it is indeed beautiful.. a song can only contain so much words but it tells a whole story, if only we know how to look at it. enough said.  I know I'm not the only one.
