The Blessed Life

     Dear You , Everything has an end.  Everything has a beginning.  It is the end of a year and a new beginning is about to happen. It has been one good year where our paths crossed.  Where you have made a presence in my life.  To teach me with something, to impart me the knowledge about life.  Without you, I will not have learned.  Without you, I will not have known on the facts, the information and the skills to go through the divine experience of what life encompasses. To this 👆🏻, from a soul to another, "I love you, love you, love you." It has been another year where our experiences bring us to agree and disagree.  Where my mistakes have to be owned and where my wrong-doings need to be acknowledged.  I am not perfect and so long I am called a human, without doubts, I make mistakes along the way.  I may have imposed my presence onto yours.  I may have inflicted pains.  And, I may have taken advantage. To this 👆🏻, from a soul to another, "I am sorry, I am sorry, I

 See, observe and watch how babies grow.  How these innocent souls try anything they will.  They are not afraid to venture.  They do not know what is failure and strive to make things work for them.  They make attempts to do practically all kinds of things.  They are free spirited. It is when the parents, and everybody else major around them, start to nurture and teach them that their utmost potentials get inhibited.  Fear is being introduced in their lives.  And so are the many rules and restrictions.  They grow according to what is told to them. All parents love their children.  They want the best for them.  Be known as, much of the children's values are those of their parents.  Children are influenced by the parents' likes and dislikes, the parents' principles, morals and standards. What I am today is the product of my upbringing.  At the critical period of development, at my young adulthood, I become almost like my parents.  I live with the standards and values of those

Perfect joy is in the little things.  Are we nourishing the little things in our lives?  Are we making the little things to spark joy?  Are we allowing them to spark the light and letting them, with gratitude, to burst with opportunities?  Or, are we taking all the little things to be unimportant?  Are little things too insignificant and they don’t matter?  Are they too inconsequential and too trivial?  It is often said we are not to be petty.  We are told not to fret over small stuffs.  We are frequently reminded to let go of things that are not important, in the grand scheme of life.  Essentially, life is better when we do not let life forces to focus on things that do not hold significant importance.  It is good to take the best and trash the rest.  While there is meaning to everything, not all things are meant for immediate actions.  Do not count the chickens before they are hatched. That said, does it make us, unconsciously, to be complete

  Forgiveness has to be done from deep within, with heavy feelings of regret and remorse.  It is not an act to get away or to sweep things under the carpet.  It is always easy to say ‘I am sorry and please forgive me’.  However, these words mean nothing when they are not sincerely meant. We have to be mindful on why we need to forgive.  Importantly, why is there a need to do it?  What is the purposeful purpose?  Can forgiveness erase the past, all the wrong deeds?  With forgiveness, will it make us a better person moving forward? Let us forgive ourselves every day.  Let us forgive others every day.  Let forgiveness be a norm every day.  Let us forgive to become a better human. Whether we are to forgive ourselves (and/or others), the mind needs to concede to the resolution.  The alignment is crucial to make things right.  The heart needs to internalize.  It must not be for the mind to take a stand to brush away on what was wrongfully schemed.  There should

Forgiveness opens doors.  Forgiveness is for my growth and happiness.  It sets me to live in the present.  It aids healing and well being.  It frees my soul of any earthly burdens.  When I am healed, it brings unspoken peace that helps me to go on with the journey in life. I must not be ashamed to initiate 'I am sorry.  Please forgive me'.  When I can do that, I am accepting my flaws.  I am taking full responsibility on my actions and I have chosen not to push blame.   I am acknowledging that I am the problem and that I have a role in contributing it.  Everything in life has two sides.  One does not exist without the other. Yes, forgiveness is a choice.  Sometimes it is a difficult choice.  To resist to forgive is to consent my ego to control me.  I am drowning myself to live in anger, bitterness and rage.  Doing so, I am not empowering myself to be human, to be kind and compassionate to one another. It shall do me good that I ask myself 'Why forgive?'.  I have to find

  Peace is something to live by and live on.  It is highly a valuable feeling where words are not good enough to describe.  It is far more than an emotional freedom and a stress free mental state occupying the empty spaces within our well being with the most extreme feeling of serenity and tranquillity. As living humans, we need to want it just as much we need the water to survive and the air to live.  It is of paramount importance that changes everything on the path and journey on one’s life.  When it is shrunk to a point where there is only peace, and just like that, the soul is liberated to do what it is supposed to be.  There will be harmony, trust and inclusiveness.  The soul gets to claim the purpose of purposes.  There will be calming balance, no matter how much hardships are thrown at us. When we act from peace, we get to feel the river of love moving within us.  We maintain the connection with our higher state of being and, importantly, with div

  When a tie is cut, it is as good as letting things go.  While there could be an unsettling feeling, letting go should not be an act that is about anger.  It is not about hate.  It is not about being mad.  It is not a feeling of being annoyed.  Nor, it has to do with giving things up – be it with relationships and/or events.  Nor, it is about taking a bitter action of severing ties with the past. Letting go can be easy to the mind when the good lesson is learned.  It makes the cut to be less painful.  Yet it is liberating should it be looked in the positive, bigger picture.  Letting go is a gift on awareness; it is wisdom in itself.  It is the willingness to surrender to become comfortable with not knowing what will come next.   Not able to let go will not make us strong.  To live life not knowing when to let go is to live in the world of insecurities.  It is not necessary to make life happy but we should not make it sad either.   The trick to live is to s

To be in a vacuum can make one to feel empty.  It is an empty space where, most likely, emptiness occupies so much room.  When such a space is too large and not carefully occupied, the feeling of lost can become overwhelming.  Worse, the spirit and the physical body begin to separate and become disconnected.  In a vacuum, one may lose with almost every possible associations.  It is easy for the mind to get fried, the emotions to get drained and the spirit to lose the will to live.  Losing makes one to feel odd at sorts. Life, in general, gives and it can also take away.  The lesson to learn is not to take things for granted, at all times.  One has to be mindful of what he has in hand.  He has to be grateful before these things are gone.  What he has today may change with a blink of an eye.  What he has lost will never be the same.  What is then occupied can be filled with the state of containing nothing.  An empty space can fill one with a sad feeling of emptiness.  I

 I am a human of mental belief.  My beliefs drive me.  They shape all my days.  By design, these beliefs are cultivated from my social environment.  All my beliefs and values are part of the environment.   Is it true that there is no way for me to be human without other humans?  What makes me human?  What makes me me? I am human, I have feelings and I have intellect.  To be more human, I have to live life with empathy and sensitivity towards others.  I have to be submissive to the power of love.  I have to embrace life that is full and over flowing with the new.  I have to live to empty out the old to make room for the new to enter. At the end of the day, I want to go to bed with the feeling that today was a good day.  That all my days are like the flowers that the Divine opens millions without forcing the buds.  That all my days, like the flowers, bloom freely.  They flourish candidly, openly, voluntarily and willingly. When the Divine opens all the flowers, there is divinity in every

  A life is precious and to live the life to its fullest is even more.  To lead a life with purpose should be my birth right.  It has to be the way I should live.  I should inspire myself to enjoy the little things in life, for one day I may look back and realize they are the big things. I have to live and speak from the truth of the heart.  I must not live by the ego of the tongue.  I have to learn to critic on myself rather than to judge others freely.  I have to stop blaming others when things are not going my way.  Taking responsibility is a virtue - it is a gateway to divine opportunities and heavenly freedom. For me to have success in life, I must love my life.  Every breath has its importance.  I must build the courage to live it.  I have to be what I do and not what I say I do.  Action speaks louder.  I must not be an empty vessel with the loudest noise.  I am born with a big canvas and I need to learn to paint it beautifully.  I must make every strokes

I reap what I sow.  It is the basic principle of life where the Law of Attractions and Vibrations and Law of Cause and Effect come together.  Everything in life has domino effect consequences.  The future is, inevitably, shaped by present actions. Just like a seed that turns into a plant, the same principle applies when I plant a seed of kindness.  Or, I give a smile.  Or, I share a bit of knowledge.  The beautiful plant, in return, bears beautiful flowers that turn into fruits one day.  I receive a smile in return and the little knowledge I share becomes another's. I want to live in the kind of world where love is eternally shared.  There is nothing more beautiful than a beautiful soul who goes out of his or her way to make life beautiful for others.  I want to be such a soul.  Even if I can't, I pray that I can do my bit. It is important that I take care to treat human beings right.  All humans have divine spark in them.  Should I insult an individual, I am insulting the Crea

To dream for what I can achieve in life can be empowering.  It can lift up my spirit to live forward.  It gives me the courage, the strength and the motivation to live with purpose.  It raises hopes.  The secret of living is to follow my dreams and go after them.  All dreams are made to be followed. But dreams will be only dream until I do something about them.  Should I wait until I feel good enough to follow them, then I will never make it.  Dreams come true when I pursue them.  I should not live the same day over and over again and call that a life. The time has come now where my dreams are to wake up.  The have to be activated for I am living in an evolved time.  It is time to let the flowers bloom, the sky opens and walk the walk.  I should take charge to live for the better me, with all my dreams taking place. Opportunities happen all the time.  And, I have to place my dreams among these opportunities.  It is the way I can progress in life.  It is whether or not I am in the right

What would life be should anything and everything around me is called with only one name?  With only a single distinct meaningful element?  Perhaps, there shall be no differences and there shall be no dissimilarities?   That, anything and everything out from God's creations here on Mother Eearth bear only one word?  That, anything and everything that evolve on these creations are solidified with only one energy?  That, all these creations (and including me) can fully understand the purpose why we are created? Can it beautiful, and will it be amazing, if anything and everything is just called 'LOVE'? While duality is created for me to experience my existence, there need be some form of code to tie all together. There ought to be a quality to balance all things out. Just while most arguments are a battle of egos, my mind has to be both a good teacher and also a good learner.  I must not allow myself to be boastful ignorance. The knowledge I learn today must teach me to become

The amount of opportunity to be generous with the heart is enormous.  There are always ways where I can learn to be kind.  There are always sets of circumstances to make a difference.  All that I need is to give, to reach out, unconditionally without thinking what I would get in return. An act of unconditional love can be gratifying.  Reaching out to others not only help them but it enriches the inner self.  It makes me human and it allows me to have a much deeper relationship with life.  It is an opportunity to embrace with the loving self. Reaching out is about the love for life, a bridge to where no man is an island.  To provide where there are others who may need a little something.  To consider where others who want a shoulder to cry on.  To reach out is to present compassion and to let life be meaningful. But, reaching out should not be about boosting my ego.  It should not be about me showing off.  It should not be an act where I tell them that I am better, that I am successful

Sometimes in life, I need to stop for a moment.  And, I must stop for that moment.  I should not keep going without taking the time, the moment to ponder for what is next to come.  I must not chase after my shadow without spending time to appreciate what is there in my hands. There must be a reason when I stop for that moment.  What is important is for me to be grateful.  I have to be thankful to what life has given me, to where it has brought me.  At that moment, I need to realize what I have done, what I have traded on all my options. In this world that is full of pleasure so frail, I need to sit back to smell the roses.  Wisely, I must be grateful and acknowledge the source of goodness in my life.  I need to pause to recognize the daily moments that bring me joy and be thankful. Day by day, everything about my life shall unfold.  Should I not take the time to stop for that moment, I may not know who I am.  I may continue to wander, might be blindly or carelessly, without letting my

I have to love myself while I still get the chance.  Before I am too weak to enjoy the powerful feeling within me.  The feeling of an inner push that makes me to do things for myself.  There is nothing wrong with being in love with myself.  It is good to put myself first as it means that the person in the mirror needs me. When I love the light in me, I learn not to hurt myself.  Hurt is an energy that dwindles camaraderie.  It destroys and divides the good things.  I need to stop hurting myself and start living by looking inward.  At the same time, I have to create beautiful meanings moving forward. Loving myself is a divine act to accept myself.  It is important that I love myself but not from the excessive self interest and self full admiration.  I have to do away with any inflated sense of self importance, at all costs and at all time.  I have to accept, and always to remember, there are imperfections in me. Self love is the foundation for who I am.  All in my life builds on top of

To pursue happiness, I need to know when to surrender.  To be at peace, it is good that I can walk away from events that no longer serve me.  To regain strength and to improve on the quality of life, it is better to let my guard down and leave the past to focus on the future. When I surrender, I turn away from my ego.  I submit to my higher self to let go any painful experiences.  I let go the intense demands on my actions to accept what is in my hand.  This moment of acceptance is the one that matters. When I walk away from events, I am not walking away from love but I am choosing to move out of negativity.  I walk away to let go of control.  Walking away takes more strength than retaliation.  To let go the need to control is bending my mind from overacting, when left unchecked can be more destructive than staying around. To strike harmony in life, in any social interactions, I must learn to let the past go.  When things are no longer working with my energetic vibrations, I have to ta

Life is just life.  It is As-Is.  It is how I view it that makes the difference.  Everyday, there are constant countless happenings of events in life.  They happen and they are to teach me lessons.   Any experience I have is not, by itself, negative or positive.  It is the meaning that I attach to that experience that gives its positive or negative connotation.  When things happen, it is good that I ask myself, 'What will I learn from this?'.  Importantly, it is good that I ask 'What have I created that it is happening?. I am not the product of my environment.  And, I should not think that I am.  I have to break away from such dogma.  When I think that I am, I am not taking the responsibility to own my life.  I have to look at life in a way that it could be, not what it was or what it is.  The story of my life is not my life; it is just my story. I am a soul and I have a body.  My mind is just a tool that my soul is using.  My body acts as a vehicle to move around.  My soul

God, in Your beautiful name, I seek and I pray. I am sorry for all the thoughts, words, deeds and actions that I think I am good above others. I am sorry for all the judgements I pass in life.   I am sorry for all the judgements I place on my ancestors, father, mother, uncles, aunties, brothers, sisters, cousins, children, nephews, nieces, husband, wife, partner, in laws, teachers, students, friends, colleagues and to all other souls that I cross path with - today and everyday. Please forgive me for my ignorance. Please forgive me for my arrogance. Please forgive me for my ego. Please forgive me for my pride. Please forgive me for my stubbornness. Thank You for listening to this repentance. Thank You for the silver rod to ground me. Thank You for granting me new opportunities. All that I want is the flame of Your Light.  All that I desire is the purity You desire. Let me be useful.  Let me be a blessing.  Let me be Your instrument. Let me live my live on Yours.  Let my human body celeb

There's a Divine spark in everyone.  You and I, when we completely open our hearts and minds, will realize that God is always using each one of us as His instrument for each other, quietly. Will I want to believe this? Will I want to acknowledge it?  How can I know it?  Can there be signs or even proofs? Believe. Trust. Faith. These are what I need to embrace, in full totality.  When I do not believe, I will not have the trust.  Without trust, will faith get me to believe that everything is possible? The total embodiment for all good things to take place in my ways of lives, as a human, requires total surrender. Should I am skeptical, I should ask myself why am I so.  What is cynicism?  What is faith? Life is As Is.  All good and bad are perceptions.  All good and bad are conditioned by my traumas.  By my past experiences. I have to find my ways to light up my life. I have to work to feel my joy and peace. Acceptance. Let go. Surrender. May God grant me all these.

Nothing in the world is permanent.  What is, is change.  It will be foolish of me to think that my earthly success will be forever.  Or my material gains last eternally and I get to bring them over the rainbow bridge on my passing.  Or my physical relationships with my family, my friends and others be for all time. Change is constant.  It occurs continuously in every stages in one's life.  It is a permanent fixture of life.  To embrace it makes me to flow with life's momentum.  To resist it makes me not to grow.   Refusal of any type of change can lead me to have negative side effects in life.  When I can no longer change, I am challenged to change myself.  When I do not change, nothing in the world will make me happy and there will be no peace of mind. I have to live my life in such a way that this moment is the last.  At all times, an old thing ends and a new thing starts.  I must not be afraid of any change.  I am developing when I am changing.  This is what make me be one w

  I need to spend time everyday to reflect on who I am.  It will do me good should I am able to have adjectives to describe about me.  It is good that I write them down.  I have to be honest with all the bad and the good.  And, I need to admit that my attitude, behaviour or character is not all roses. I should not allow my ego to guide me when I am reflecting.  I have to be truthful to my soul.  I should not let my soul be lied just because I need to look good to others.  Or to make myself sound good with all the adjectives describing me. Everyday, I have to go through the list.  As I go through it, I have to take the time to reflect.  I need to think why I gain that adjective, or lack of.  The more I go through it, the more I can become aware.  Repetition is the mother of learning and that is how my consciousness shall evolve. This exercise will make me to find about myself.  About my sense of purpose.  When I discover who I really am, hopefully, I shal

As a human, I make mistakes.  I have to own them.  I must not shift my faults to others.  Shifting to make others be responsible for my mistakes reflects badly on me.  When I cannot take full responsibility on my bad acts and judgement, will the divine light within me get brighter? I need to check my pride.  Too much of it alters communication and connection.  Too think so highly of myself will make me to focus on the downside of others instead of their beauty, no matter how significant.  How can I allow myself to think such thing when all men are created equal. Should I put myself high up on a pedestal, it changes my relationship with others.  It can ruin on the ways I live to reach out to them.  I need to stay humble, regardless of any achievements. Success and material accomplishments are temporary.  Plus, I do not get to bring them with me on the day I leave this world.  Getting myself too attached with them all will, unconsciously, make me to lose humility. Pride is a crime where

I need to remember this wisdom, always.  You said (something like) "Do not complain the mess on your neighbour's front door when there's ton of untidy state of things at your backyard". I want to be reminded too with this: "how people treat me is their karma; how I react is mine".    Yes! I should not judge.  When I do not want to be judged, then I should not judge others.  I should learn to refrain from negative utterances in all conversations - when making comments, when giving opinions, when telling jokes and when sharing - at all time. Life is like a boomerang.  When I throw it out, it keeps coming back at me.   Life is like an echo.  When I shout, it yells back at me. To be upset when others are judging me is the result of my own doing.  What I give out is what I get back.  I am my own greatest enemy.  I am the one that sabotages myself.  It is circle in the sand - what goes around, comes around. The law of cause and effect is unbiased.  As I sow, so sh

Kindness facilitates humans to understand and reducing the chances of friction and conflict.  It is an act, a moral code, that makes interaction among humans gainful.  It imparts richness and ethical beauty to social dealings. Kindness is selfless, compassionate and merciful.  To be a good human, I have to be kind to one another.  It includes in all my acts, my words and my thoughts.  It is good that I nurture my heart to be tender and that I easily forgive. The more I practice kindness, I will experience positive mental and physical changes.  My acts have to be friendly, generous and considerate.  My thoughts have to be filled with love and peace interacting with others. In everything that I do, I must do to others what I would have them do to me.  When I want to be kind, I must not think to gain any explicit reward or to avoid certain punishment.  My acts of kindness are to strengthen relationships.  They are to give me a sense of joy, peace of mind and the fulfillment to be a human.

Should I go by the principle 'when I point a finger at someone, there are three fingers point back', I should accept that, yes! only my fart smells.  This acceptance should wake me up.  I have to own this realization.  I should take full responsibility.  And, I should fully be watchful that the smell does not affect others.  My duty is that I must be aware of what I am doing.  I must take charge not to impose on others. I have to learn to be sensitive.  I have to learn to love the fool in me.  I must not fight but accept all my imperfections.  Any struggles are futile but God's love is constant. I have to learn to know.  Then, when I know, I have to learn to know better.  Perhaps, by then, I will also be able to do better.  That is what kindness is too. I have to, continuously, make me a better person with a good soul.  After all, the most important value of Life is the happiness of the soul, not anything outside of it. To God, I love You and "Thank You" for accep

When the going gets tough, the tough get going.  Yes, that should be how I live.  I have to believe in who I am.  I have to have faith that my life is guided and protected.  It is all in the mind and the more I stay positive, the easier life is. It is good to think positive.  All my troubles are to make me stronger.  All my troubles can be solved.  I should not give up.  Confucius says 'Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall'. If I cannot fly, then I run.  When I can't run, then I walk.  When I can't walk, then I crawl.  Whatever I do, I have to keep moving forward.  These should be how I am to live my life with my head up. The better me is not where I stand in moments of comfort and convenient.  But, it is where I stand at times of challenges.  As another saying goes, in which I have to live by it, 'You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think'. When life gives me lemon, I shall mak

Few years back, I received this beautiful message from a very dear soul.  It reads 'Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come.  Remember everything you have faced, all the battles you have won, and all the fears you have overcome'. This meaningful message gives me strength.  The message gives me the realization that everything is possible.  That, there are no happy days nor there are sad days.  There is always something good in every day.  Every experiences are how my mind wants to interpret them.  And, I must choose to stay positive every day. The only way to live a wonderful life is to face the day, with courage of love to live.  A strong person is when he or she feels the pain, understands it and accepts it.  Behind each pain, it is good to light up life with optimism. I should not live to be needy of my needs.  Others do not owe me nor do I owe them.  I should quit expecting anything in return.  It shall do me good not to li

Everything that I want to achieve has to start with day one of action.  It should not be a 'one day I will do it' or 'no action, talk only' attitude.  When I am not taking any action, I am telling the Universe that I do not have the full motivation.  That there is still a little doubt and I need more time to think things out. The Universe conspires to make everything I want to achieve happen.  The author, Paulo Coelho wrote 'when you want something, all the Universe conspires in helping you achieve it'.  But, when I delay a decision and waiting for that one day, the Universe will not make it to materialize.   Time and tide wait for no man.  I must learn not to slip an opportunity as it may never come again.  Great opportunity do not come everyday.  I need to recognize and seize it with every chance I get.  I need to put my wants, my desires into immediate action. To delay an action comes with a price.  The time between intention and action affects the experience

On any given day, I receive at least one inspirational or motivational quote on chat apps.  They are beautiful messages touching on the aspects of life.  Very often, the beautiful messages are giving me the opportunity to reflect. There are many wonderful messages that let me to fill my shortcomings.  Should I not receive them, I will not know and I shall live in oblivion. Surely, there has to be reason why I receive them.  These messages are to wake me up and remind me about the various stages of my life.  They are important as they allow me to learn.  They usually nudge my mind. But, do I take them seriously?  Do I internalize the messages that I deem inspiring and motivating?  What do I do after reading them?  How much do I allow them to be parts of my life? I have to find meaning reading these messages.  I have to find ways to make them stay with me.  I must not read them lightly. I have to find purpose why I forward them.  I should not forward them casually. I have to own these me

When my soul is happy, there will be a big drive to live for a good life.  A good life where I will understand that whatever I do, I will do it for love, for peace and more.  When I am at peace with myself, I am at peace with anything outside of me.   When I am in love with myself, it is where I truly know to love others. With a happy soul, I accept life as Just Is.  I accept others for who they are.  I understand that everyone is right in their own perspective.  And, importantly, I will stop to prove to show off my ego to the world how intelligent I am.   Simply, I shall live for who I am in the name of the Divine Creator. When my soul is happy, it will become the best shield for me to survive in this world.  It will protect me from harm, from disappointment, from greed, from sadness, from sorrow.  Living with a happy soul makes me to focus on my well being.  On how to make myself a good human being. It is important that I live every day to make my soul happy.  It is important that I

Today, I am dedicating to all the loved ones that have gone before me.  May they rest in eternal peace.  May their souls walk along the divine path.  May their paths towards the rising sun be blessed. I humbly ask for forgiveness on their behalf.  I humbly ask that they be cleansed, purified and released to the path of the pure divine light.  I humbly ask that they no longer will be earthbound.  As I bid them goodbye to the path of light, they will release me in return. I thank them for reaching out to me and speak without the words.  I thank them for choosing me and sharing their lives.  To them, I say 'Thank you for watching over and guiding me'.  Humbly, I wish them the best.  Death is a true blessing where all their tasks are done on Mother Earth. But here I am left with jealousy feelings.  I am jealous of where they are now.  I am jealous of the way divinity makes them happy without me.  I am jealous of the love where they are today. I will always miss them.  Their departu

A decision is important.  When I can make a decision, it helps me in choosing on various options.  When a decision is made, there shall be peace of mind.  There shall be clarity.  There will be momentum.  There will be a direction to follow in moving forward. Not able to make a decision may get me stuck in life as there is no path to guide me.  Decision making helps me to be proactive and it pushes me to be alive.  I have to focus on what I want and on where I want to go.   In life, it is essential that I give attention on steps to make up my mind. Whatever the decision I am making, it is important to focus on how the decision is made.  I should not focus whether I am making the right decision.  The right decision is when I am happy to conduct it. When I own to be happy, I will make better decisions.  With happiness, I educate myself and make certain that I am fully informed.  When I am happy, any decisions are invested with less pressure. Success in life is a journey, not a destinatio

I receive this beautiful message and it makes me thinking.  The message reads 'Be certain that you do not die without having done something wonderful for humanity - by Maya Angelou (an American poet)'. Have I contributed anything meaningful to humanity?  Have I done enough charity works to build a sustainable future for humanity?  Whom do I live for, other than for my own survival? As I ponder, it reminds me of another message.  There's a line, 'ants are busy too', that strikes me.  Ants are busy insects and each one of them cares enough for their colonies.  They do many busy jobs that are important else the colony might die without combined efforts.  It is in togetherness that determines for the colony to survive. Is my life too busy or that I care less about the world around me?  What can I do to the people whom I can be useful to?  Don't I want to make my world, the worlds of my loved ones and others a happier place to live together? What are the reasons for

Rumi says 'We are born of love' and he adds 'Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love'.  I have to remember that I am born of love and that is what I am.  There is a seed of love inside me from the day I was born.   I must not turn love into something negative and abuse it.  Nor should I do something that is not love.  When I do not honour the seed of love inside of me, I am shunning away from making myself a human. Wherever I am, whatever I do, I need to do things out of love.  Out of kindness from my heart.  Out of the divine light I have been entrusted with.  I am the creator of my own actions.  Whatever I do, wherever I am, will rig in my favor. My task is to ensure that I stay love and not to seek for love.  I need to make love shines and it will be good that I spread it too.  What matters, at all time, is what I feel about the choice I make.  My soul must be at peace.   I must not let love die within me.  Without love, my world will not be in my favor.  L

 As a human, understanding others opens up the possibility of seeing and understanding situations from different perspectives.  Understanding is a behaviour that makes people human.  When there is sympathetic awareness, there shall be freedom from doubts and suspicions. When something is meaningfully understood, it creates better relationship, better socialization.  It builds trust and improves bonding between individuals.  With understanding, there is acceptance that all humans are created equal, at a deeper level. Understanding is an act of love.  It is the first step to acceptance.  It is a feeling so important that it adds value to life.  It softens the heart.  It fuels the emotional and intellectual growth. Understanding others means I need to experience their emotions. I need to have lots of empathy.  I have to put myself in their shoes and walk their walks.  I must remind myself not to judge as I do not know their full stories.  I have to show them that I care, that they are sig

I have to appreciate my life.  I have to be thankful that I am able to create something while I am still breathing.  Acknowledging the good that I have in life is the foundation for all abundance.  The more I am thankful, the more I verbalize my gratitude, the door of abundance shall open wide. It is always important to reflect on all of the blessings I have.  And, as I express my gratitude towards life, I must not forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter the words.  It is how I live by them. I have to be useful.  When I am useful, I am creating life.  When I make myself useful, I shall be filled with happiness.  Happiness is the by product of being useful.  Being useful is a mindset and it starts with a decision. What useful thing or things have I done in my lifetime?  I do not have to change the world but I can make life a little better.  What have I done that is making a difference, not only for myself but for my family, my friends and the community I care? Am I alive or

When I surrender, the Universe will take good care of my being.  I have to trust the process of life.  The more I fight and dictate how my life has to be, the struggle to stay afloat will drown me instead.  While it is good to plan ahead, it is also good to accept the spiritual law of acceptance. It will do me good to consciously drop all forms of resistance in life.  I have to let life flows and unfolds itself without getting in its way.  I have to trust that the Universe cares about me.   Everything happens for good reason.  This statement has to stay in my mind at all time.  It guides and protects me from over react.  It makes me to check my attitudes towards life.  When I can accept it, it is easy to realize the reason why the situation has to happen.  Someday, I will look back and laugh at the confusion as everything will make sense. There are no coincidences in life.  Every person I meet and every situation that happens are part of the plan to make me a better human.  I have to l

Here I am on Mother Earth, on this physical plane, I am sure that all my four bodies (the spiritual, physical, mental and emotional) where they are put to life have knowingly and unknowingly made some degrees of wrong doings towards you. As I reach for the Divine hand, on this beautiful day, to make things good and right for me, I am also doing the same to you. With prayers, please forgive me. Please forgive me. Please forgive me. I am sorry for all the hurt done knowingly and unknowingly to you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

When I acknowledge the souls of every individuals, I acknowledge divinity.  There is beauty in everyone.  There's something beautiful in every human.  After all, human beings are members of a whole in creation. My life will be meaningful when I embrace the ability to acknowledge that all humans are unique, no matter what.  I have to find positivity in everybody I come across with.  I need to encourage my mindset to seek the good in everyone.  When I can do that, respect begets respect. Finding positivity in life will put my world to be a better place for me to live in.  It will tame my judgement, bend my critical mind and soften my demanding behaviour.  It will make me to be at peace with myself and with everyone else.  And, hopefully, it makes me happier too. Negativity destroys me.  It builds antagonism.  It creates negative attitudes and feelings.  To live with negativity, where I am complaining about anything and everything, can affect my health.  Negativity divides and that ca

Why mistakes keep repeating?  Don't have I learned from any of them? What is causing this constant recurring of events?  Is it a cycle of "history repeats itself"?   What exactly have gone wrong? For a start, I have to accept that it is the work of my ego.  I have allowed it to be assertive in every expressions out from all my opinions.  This is a sure possibility, without doubt.  There is a big difference between being mentally strong and simply having a big ego. A big ego is about arrogance.  It is never about confidence. Secondly, it has to do with the degree on self realization.  Obviously, with less or no realization, I am vulnerable to get hung up on/with labels.  I open and let my intellect with opportunity to authorize that my thinking is (and must be) always right.   My intellect, which has no sense of right and wrong, undertakes that it knows everything.  Does that mean that all things I know make sense?  Is intellect a self-centered mindset? What is intellect? 

Love and peace of mind protect me.  They are like the air that I breathe to sustain my life.  They allow me to overcome problems that life hands on me.  They teach me to survive, to live  and to have the courage to face each day. Nothing in life is to be feared.  I must not live in fear.  Life is about to be understood.  Life is about living it.  And there are no problems that cannot be resolved.  When I have a positive attitude and constantly strive to give my best, problems become my guidelines. The secret of happiness lies in taking a genuine interest in all the details of daily life.  I should not live in oblivion.  I cannot solve my problems with the same thinking I used when I created them.  All I need is a paradigm shift to have the ability to face uncertainties with optimism. Life is about creating myself- the purpose, and not about finding who I am.  When I live with my divine light within me, everything in my life is defined.  Acknowledging the light, I go through life and I

I will go nowhere in this world should I think I am better than everyone else.  That I think I know more than everyone else.  That I assume my knowledge on all subjects is more than everyone else.  That I believe my experiences are far greater than everyone else. Should my ego is uncontrollable, it is the beginning of my troubles.  Ego overshadows everything.  It takes away the sense of rationality.  It forces me to make everything about myself. I have to listen to myself, my words and my tone.  I have to observe my body language, my facial expressions.  When I talk, must I be heard at any cost?  Can I see the positive in others or do I prefer to see only the worst in them? When I want to learn new things, I need to let go of my ego.  Too much ego makes me stubborn and that stops me from listening to others.  It drives me not to ask for help from people who might know better than me. I must learn to be humble, and stay humble, regardless of what I have in my life.  It is ok to expose m
