I Don't Know What's Going To Happen, Do You?

Image of Kids on roller coaster ride


Ryhen's Mind, someone I follow on Google Reader, wrote this about life. Part of the reason why I read these stuff because it melows me down...I am easily excitable, that's why. According to him, history repeats itself. As in you live, then you die, then you live then you die. On an everyday basis, we repeat things like doing the laundry (which NEVER ENDS!!!) and we continually eat, we continually go to sleep and continually wake up. And then do our thing, work, come home, watch TV....etc. 


But that is kind of depressing way to look at life, isn't it?


I mean, I know of some people who are really into the whole 'what is life all about?' or the 'why is planet earth the only earth in our solar system with living beings?' and also the 'the aliens built the Egyptian pyramids'. Contrary to what you may be thinking, I am not having one at the expense of these people. It could be true. Who knows? I certainly don't. For all you know, IT IS true, right?


Anyway, back to the repeating things thing. I kind of like to think that I do things for a reason. Like I eat because I am hungry. I sleep because I am tired...or will suffer early death if I don't. 


For life, I am doing things for a reason too....like for experience and growth. Maybe when I die, this whole experience thing won't die? Oh. That's what people call spirits, huh? 


I don't know what it is but I am on this rollercoaster ride as it is and I am not getting off. So, since I am here, I might as well scream at the top of my lungs and have some fun, right?


After all, like I said, I don't know for sure what is going to happen. Do you?


p.s. Oh gawrd, this is deeeeeeeepp stuff. :-)

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘ reading ’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘ playing the piano ’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘ writing ’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘ playing with my kids ’; Yea...

Maid Side-Kick

I was kind of a little sad when I read the news about this - there will be no live-in Indonesian maids in Malaysia anymore . There are pros and cons to having a live-in maid, as with everything else, but for us, we enjoyed more pros than cons. Back then, when my kids were little, we brought in a family of maids to help with...well, just about everything, and we were like two families merged into one. They ate what we ate, we sleep, they sleep, we shop, they shop, they joke, we laugh, we joke, they laugh...for me, the maid I hired was more like a sister and side-kick to me. For that few years, I was dependent on her to mind-read my schedule and when I need or don't need help. She picked things up quickly and we ended up having lots of moments whereby we were in sync. Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media. Since we were more like partners in crim...

Demanding a Balanced Lifestyle

We live in a world choked with demands….demand for more money, better lifestyle, more holidays, smarter kids, bigger house, posher cars….etc. People walk around with spiritually unimportant goals in their minds driven by the need to succeed and be better than others around them. Hong Kong. South Korea. Japan. Most Asian countries suffer from this ill-fate which have caused a horrific rise in the number of suicide rates in the said countries. Malaysia is no exception as well although we’re very slowly gaining ground on our neighbors. Just picking up my son from school can become a stressful affair. I’ve mentioned this to a few friends of mine over the phone and all of them cluck their tongue shake their head. It’s end of the year and the kids are getting their test results back by now. I overheard a couple of tai-tais (housewives) gripe about their kids’ results. Mom: I don’t know-lah. My kid did not do very well this term. The best also got 95 only. (NINETY FIVE ONLY???) ...
