This is my first blog, I have hesitated to blog even though I'ved signed up for this a few weeks earlier. Well, life is not easy working and juggling with responsibilities at home. I am not born with a silver spoon in my mouth and I can say I managed to strive through my career and personal life with the help of my other half, without her, all is meaningless.
My childrens are good but children remains as children, they tend to be lazy and naughty all the time. I have gone through this and I understand well. But the pressure to educate and point out to them the benefits of securing a good education is there, and to balance it up with more recreational activities is wise.
This is where my other half helps me a lot, thanks to her it has spared me the trouble of going through the massive homeworks that they bring home everyday. This is Malaysia, the education system has not changed, the children are not trained to think. Homework after homework, test after test, how can they have some freedom of mind to be more creative? After the homework, the mind is exhausted, so is the spirit. Tomorrow is another day to face the harsh reality of school work again.
What is the purpose of life? I have pondered and somehow due to my limited ability to think of a more meaningful purpose, I reckon that the creation of life is one purpose. We are human beings, without pro-creation human beings will not exist from generation to generation. Better and better genes are passed down the line, so is civilization. But on the contrary, the more advanced we are, the more self-destructive we become, like now.
The second purpose for me is to live our life to the fullest. We do not have a choice of where we are born or who our parents are, but we have a choice to live according to the way we want to live, not to live beyond our mean and standard, of course. Have heard too many people sayng that 'We are what we thought', looking deeper into it, it seems that this is a fact. Mind over matter, thought creates! Believe it or not, it's a choice we have to make.
Although it is the truth, the difficult part is to really convince ourselves that it can actually work for us because thoughts are not a material thing where you can see and touch, it is something which you must trust and believe. Nothing more. Even for me, I have not fully grasp the truth entirely, standing between believing and not believing most of the time.
I like to write and express through words, don't like to talk much. I love clanking at the keyboard better than expressing my thought and feelings by speaking out. I can compose my thoughts better at the keyboard and can express my feelings more easily this way.
Well,work is piling up now and many deadlines to meet, I believe I have made a successful progression through life by writing my first blog today, I am happy that I am able to do it after much procrastination.
More blogs tonite...
