    As If I Care?

     
    For one who has >20years of experience more than me. Constantly boasting of his abilities by talking loudly punctuated with four letter words.
    Thinking that by putting people down, he would be moving himself up.
     
    In face of such aggression.
    Ungentleman in every possible way.
    Say however loudly you desire.
    If such naive a behaviour can make you feel more important.
     
    AS IF I CARE!
     

    Simple Joy

    GuGu (chinese term for Aunt) ...I like Public Holidays and Windy days ... my little five-year-old nephew, Bruce said last Saturday.
     
    Why?
     
    With a cheeky smile ..
     
    Because I can rest on Public Holidays.
     
    And on Windy days, I can blow my hair!
     
    Such simple delights that I have forgotten!

    Still Waters

    Let your emotions resemble that of a huge lake that runs deep. Quiet on the surface, hidding its depth from passerbys. Let no stones and pebbles upset it's peace and equilibrium.
     
    I see life as a series of lessons for us to take and learn. Events and people that upset our inner being serve as alerts to highlight the weakness of our feelings bank. Accept and embrace whatever that comes your way. Be it good or bad. Easier said than done. This little enlightenment once achieved, opens up a path leading to self-liberation and inner joy!

    Character

     
    Chinese New Year. We were doing the usual visiting to my Grandma's place with my brother's family. Bruce, my younger nephew, was playing the playstation belong to my cousin at Grandma's.
     
    He played against his elder brother in Street Fighters. This game that required control of different combinations of attack buttons was quite a lot for the five-year-old to manage. He was knocked out by his brother almost instantaneously.
     
    As I observed the unfair game, I asked my cousin ..
     
    "Hey, do you have some baby games so Bruce can handle?"
     
    "Baby games? Let me check ..." my cousin began to look through the drawer containing a variety of games.
     
    I noticed Bruce dropping the game control and sitting quietly with a grumpy face.
     
    After a while he said, "I am not a Baby!I am not a Small Boy! I am a Big Boy now!"
     
    Sensing his displeasure of being "graded" a baby, "Ok, Ok, Bruce Bruce is a Big Boy now. Let's just play Street Fighters!"
     
    He grabbed the game set back gleefully and continued played ... losing.
     
    He would rather Lose with Integrity .. Then to Win with Shame. My Ah Bruce!

    Be Happy

     
    Since I have to work late no matter what. Might as well maintain a happy state of mind doing it. Being affected and frustrated ain't going to earn me any ounce of productivity.
