If you believe you are right but still people criticise you, hurt you, shout at you, don't bother. Just remember that in every game, only audience makes noise, not the players. Be a player. Believe in yourself, and do the best.
--------------------------------------------
Happiness is a choice, not a result. Nothing will make you happy until you choose to be happy. No person will make you happy unless you decide to be happy. Your happiness will not come to you. It can only come from you.
--------------------------------------------
Life has four pillars: Family, Kindness, Honesty, Humility.
But the foundation is always Love.
--------------------------------------------
Lovely thing to learn from water:
Adjust yourself in every situation and in any shape. But most importantly, find your own way to flow.
--------------------------------------------
If the path is beautiful, first confirm where it leads.
But if the destination is beautiful, don't bother how the path is. Just keep moving.
--------------------------------------------
Do everything with a good heart and expect nothing in return and you will never be disappointed.
--------------------------------------------
Pure heart is the greatest temple in the world.
Don't believe the smiling face, but believe the smiling heart, they are very rare in this world.
This is a blog to post the meaningful messages I gathered from emails, forwarded messages or anywhere else which I have stored over the years. Take note that I do not write them on my own - just merely copying and posting them up here. Enjoy! =)

Do the right things
Any person can make you realise how wonderful the world is!
But only few will make you realise how wonderful you are in the world...care for those few!
Let your smile change the world, but don't let the world change your smile.
If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it.
If you don't ask, the answer is always no.
If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place.
- Nora Roberts
Our greatest weakness lies in giving up.
The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.
- Thomas A. Edison
In between goals is a thing called life, that has to be lived and enjoyed. - Sid Caeser
Love is inside the one who is free. - Mooji
Discussions are always better than arguments, because to find out who is right, and a discussion is to find what is right.
Follow your heart.
It will always take you where you need to go.
As long as you are not hurting anyone, do what you need to do to be happy.
The mind is like water. When it's turbulent, it's difficult to see. When it's calm, everything becomes clear.
But only few will make you realise how wonderful you are in the world...care for those few!

Positive Thinking
Good people are like candles, they burn themselves up to give others light.
Use your smile to change the world
Don't let the world change your smile.
If you want comfortable journey of life
then reduce the luggage of expectations...
Do good for others. It will come back in unexpected ways.
Making everyone happy is not in our hands.
But being happy with everyone is definitely in our hands.
Do everything with a good heart and expect nothing in return and you will never be disappointed.
Knowledge is knowing what to say.
Wisdom is knowing when to say it.
Golden time of our life may not return back forever but the good relation and the golden memories will stay in the heart forever.
The heart is the only machine that works without any rest for years.
Keep it happy always whether it is 'yours' or 'others'.
What we desire is not always what we get...
But unknowingly many times we get things much more than what we expect...
These are called 'Blessings'...
We have three types of friends in life:
Friends for a reason, friends for a season, and friends for a lifetime.
Enjoy the little things in life, because one day you'll look back and realise they were the big things.
Positive thinking isn't about expecting the best to happen every time, but accepting that whatever happens is the best for this moment.
A beautiful life does not just happen... it's built daily with love, laughter, sacrifice, patience, grace and forgiveness.
To be rich is not what you have in your bank account, but what you have in your heart.
Use your smile to change the world
Don't let the world change your smile.
If you want comfortable journey of life
then reduce the luggage of expectations...
Do good for others. It will come back in unexpected ways.

To Every Beautiful Woman
Fantastic Lines by Mother Teresa:
If your eyes are positive, you will love the world.
But if your tongue is positive, the world will love you.
A woman's love is in action. She looks with her heart and feels with her eyes.
A woman is the bank where her family deposits all anger, worries and hurt.
A woman is the cement that keeps her family together and her love lasts a lifetime.
If your eyes are positive, you will love the world.
But if your tongue is positive, the world will love you.
A woman's love is in action. She looks with her heart and feels with her eyes.
A woman is the bank where her family deposits all anger, worries and hurt.
A woman is the cement that keeps her family together and her love lasts a lifetime.

Food for thought
Don't walk in front of me... I may not follow...
Don't walk behind me... I may not lead...
Just walk beside me... And be my friend...
Confidence comes naturally with success, but success comes only to those who are confident. So begin your day with confidence.
The seeds of kindness you plant today will bloom in the hearts of those that you touch, forever.
Spend your time on those who love you unconditionally. Don't waste it on those who only love you when the conditions are right for them.
Best philosophy in life is to keep the mind happy! We don't know whether success gives happiness or not, but a happy mind can always lead to success!
Failures are part of life...
If you don't fail, you don't learn..
If you don't learn, you'll never change.
Happiness keeps you sweet,
Trials keep you strong,
Sorrows keep you human,
Failures keep you humble,
Success keeps you glowing,
But only God keeps you going.
Life is a trip.
The only problem is that it doesn't come with a map...
We have to search our own routes to reach our destination.
Don't be afraid to start over. It gives you a chance to build something even better.
If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are three key societal members who can make a difference. They are the father, the mother and the teacher. - A P J Abdul Kalam
We come with nothing, we go with nothing, but one great thing we can achieve in our beautiful life is... a little remembrance in someone's mind and a small place in someone's heart.
If you cannot find the right words for the certain situation, just give a smile. Words may confuse, but a smile always convinces!
Some people are poor financially but so rich by heart.
You can not change your future, but you can change your habits, and surely your habits will change your future. - Dr Abdul Kalam
Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving, otherwise you will fall.
In the journey of life, we pass pleasures and pain.
There will be sunshine and rain,
There will be loss and gain.
But we must learn to smile again and again.
A tree that wants to touch the sky must extend its roots into the earth. The more it wants to rise upwards, the more it has to grow downwards. So to rise in life, we must be down to earth, humble and grateful.
Golden time of our life may not return back forever but the good relation and the golden memories will stay in the heart forever.
If you have the spirit of understanding everything in a positive way... you'll enjoy each and every moment of life, whether it's pressure or pleasure!
Respect people who find time for you in their busy schedule, but love people who never look at their schedule when you need them.
Rumours are carried by haters, spread by fools and accepted by idiots.
The most useful asset of a person is not a head full of knowledge, but a heart full of love, with ears open to listen and hand willing to help.
Happiness is a choice. Yeah, things in life make it difficult, but at the end of the day you control your own happiness.
Honesty is a very expensive gift. Don't expect it from cheap people. - Warren Buffet
In every religion there is love, but love has no religion.
The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do.
It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you don't stop.
Missing someone isn't about how long since you've seen them or the amount of time you've talked to them. It's about that very moment when you're doing something and wishing they were right there with you.
Kindness makes you the most beautiful person in the world no matter what you look like.
A beautiful dress can change the personality. However, a beautiful behaviour can change the whole life! Change your dress as often as you like, but wear your best behaviour permanently.
Millions of tress in the world are accidentally planted by squirrels - who bury nuts, then forget where they hid them. Do good and forget. It'll grow some day.
Sugar and salt may be mixed together, but ants reject the salt and carry away only sugar.
We are also surrounded with infinite choices and possibilities...
The art is to select the right people and right choices in life to make your life sweeter and successful.
Life will never be perfect, but the perfect moments make it all worthwhile.
The fragrance of flowers spreads only in the direction of wind.
But the goodness of person spreads in all directions.
Don't care about what other people think of you. There will always be those people who want to see you fail because they can't succeed.
Don't walk behind me... I may not lead...
Just walk beside me... And be my friend...
Confidence comes naturally with success, but success comes only to those who are confident. So begin your day with confidence.

Inspirational Quotes
If you have to choose between being kind and being right, choose being kind and you will always be right.
We don't need everything to enjoy life. We already have life to enjoy everything.
Life is not always perfect. Like a road, it has many bends, ups and down, but that's its beauty.
Life is like a sea. We are moving without end. Nothing stays with us. What remain is just the memories of some people who touched us as waves.
The search for happiness is the main reason for unhappiness. Accept the life as it comes, you'll find happiness in every moment.
Problems are like washing machines - they twist us, spin us and knock us around, but we come out cleaner, brighter and better than before.
Give. But don't allow yourself to be used.
Love. But don't allow your heart to be abused.
Trust. But don't be naive.
Listen. But don't lose your own voice.
Everything is valuable only in two situations...
First, before getting it.
Second, after losing it.
In between we don't realise the value of any thing.
Be thankful for everybody in your life.
Good or bad
Past or present
They all made you the person you are today.
When you come to the edge of all the light you know, and are about to step off into the darkness of unknown, have faith in yourself. Faith is knowing one of two things will happen: there will be something solid to stand on, or you will be taught how to fly.
Let every moment be what it's going to be. What's meant to be will come your way. What's not will fall away. - Mandy Hale
Life is really very simple. What we give out we get back. Every thought we think is creating our future. - Louise Hay
Spend your time with those who love you unconditionally... not with those who love you only when the condition is right for them...

Beautiful Letter by a Father to his Children
Following is a letter to his children from a renowned Hong Kong TV broadcaster and Child Psychologist. The words are actually applicable to all of us, young or old, children or parents!
Dear children,
I am writing this to you because of 3 reasons:
i. Life, fortune and mishaps are unpredictable, nobody knows how long he lives. Some words are better said early.
ii. I am your father, and if I don't tell you these, no one else will.
iii. What is written is my own personal bitter experiences that perhaps could save you a lot of unnecessary heartaches. Remember the following as you go through life:
1. Do not bear grudge towards those who are not good to you. No one has the responsibility of treating you well, except your mother and I. To those who are good to you, you have to treasure it and be thankful, and also you have to be cautious, because, everyone has a motive for every move. When a person is good to you, it does not mean he really likes you. You have to be careful, don't hastily regard him as a real friend.
2. No one is indispensable, nothing is in the world that you must possess. Once you understand this idea, it would be easier for you to go through life when people around you don;t want you anymore, or when you lose what/who you love the most.
3. Life is short. When you waste your life today, tomorrow you would find that life is leaving you. The earlier you treasure your life, the better you enjoy life.
4. Love is but a transient feeling, and this feeling would fade with time and with one's mood. If your so called loved ones leaves you, be patient, time will wash away your aches and sadness. Don't over exaggerate the beauty and sweetness of love, and don't over exaggerate the sadness of falling out of love.
5. A lot of successful people did not receive a good education, that does not mean that you can be successful by not studying hard! Whatever knowledge you gain is your weapon in life. One can go from rags to riches, but one has to start from some rags!
6. I do not expect you to financially support me when I am old, neither would I financially support your whole life. My responsibility as a supporter ends when you are grown up. After that, you decide whether you want to travel in a public transport or in your limousine, whether rich or poor.
7. You honour your words, but don't expect others to be so. You can be good to people, but don't expect people to be good to you. If you don't understand this, you would end up with unnecessary troubles.
8. I have bought lotteries for umpteen years, but I could never strike any prize. That shows if you want to be rich, you have to work hard! There is no free lunch!
9. No matter how much time I have with you, let's treasure the time we have together. W do not know if we would meet again in our next life.;
Your Dad

Life & Attitude
Look back and get experience!
Look forward and see hope!
Look around and find reality!
Look within and find yourself.
If there's something better than giving others the best of what we have, it is giving others the best of who we are.
Remember: Good persons are like street lights...they don't shorten the distance, but they light up the path and make the walk worthwhile.
The best things in life are the people you love, the places you've seen, and the memories you've made along the way.
There is a purpose for everyone you meet. Some people come into your life to test you, some to teach you, some to use you, and some to bring out the very best in you.
Making a hundred friends is not a miracle. The miracle is to make a single friend who will stand by your side even when hundreds are against you.
Time is like river. You cannot touch the same water twice, because the flow that has passed will never pass again. Enjoy every moment of your life.
Life is like a camera,
Focus on what's important,
Capture the good times,
Develop from the negatives,
and if things don't work out, take another shot.
The only difference between a good day and a bad day is your attitude!
Happy people are always happy, not because everything is right in their life. They are happy because their attitude towards everything is right...
Challenges are what make life interesting and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.
Your journey will be much lighter if you don't carry your past with you.
Look forward and see hope!
Look around and find reality!
Look within and find yourself.
If there's something better than giving others the best of what we have, it is giving others the best of who we are.
Remember: Good persons are like street lights...they don't shorten the distance, but they light up the path and make the walk worthwhile.
The best things in life are the people you love, the places you've seen, and the memories you've made along the way.
There is a purpose for everyone you meet. Some people come into your life to test you, some to teach you, some to use you, and some to bring out the very best in you.
Making a hundred friends is not a miracle. The miracle is to make a single friend who will stand by your side even when hundreds are against you.
Time is like river. You cannot touch the same water twice, because the flow that has passed will never pass again. Enjoy every moment of your life.
Life is like a camera,
Focus on what's important,
Capture the good times,
Develop from the negatives,
and if things don't work out, take another shot.
The only difference between a good day and a bad day is your attitude!
Happy people are always happy, not because everything is right in their life. They are happy because their attitude towards everything is right...
Challenges are what make life interesting and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.
Your journey will be much lighter if you don't carry your past with you.

Alone I can 'say' but together we can 'talk'.
Alone I can 'enjoy' but together we can 'celebrate'.
Alone I can 'smile' but together we can 'laugh'.
That's the beauty of human relations.
We are nothing without each other.

Morning Thoughts
No one in this world is rich enough to buy his own childhood and youth back.
Only friends help to recreate those moments from time to time at no cost.
On this road called life, you have to take the good with the bad, smile with the sad, love what you got, and remember what you had. Always forgive, but never forget. People change. Things go wrong. But just remember, the ride goes on.
When you wish good for others, good things come back to you.
Be a reflection of what you'd like to receive.
If you want love, give love.
If you want truth, be truthful.
If you want respect, give respect.
What you give out will always return. - Kristen Butler
There is a purpose for everyone you meet.
Some people come into your life to test you, some to teach you, some to use you, and some to bring out the very best in you.
I like people who understand, who are not quick to judge, who see you at your best, and love you at your worst. They don't talk behind your back. They are real people and I'll keep them around.
As we get older, we don't lost friends. We just find out who the real ones are.
Strong people don't put others down...they lift them up.
Good friends are like stars. You don't always see them, but you know they're always there.
We come with nothing, we go with nothing, but one great thing we can achieve in our beautiful life is...A little remembrance in someone's mind, and a small place in someone's heart.
If you have a family that loves you, a few good friends, food on your table and a roof over your head. You are richer than you think.
Smile - it is the key that fits the lock of everybody's heart.
We all deserve to have a great day. Start the day with a grateful heart. Go through your day with contentment and positivity. Put love in everything you do, and always believe that a bit of miracle is waiting for you somewhere behind the radiant sunlight.

Think about these...
5 things to stop doing now:
1. Worrying
2. Living in the past
3. Thinking small
4. Doubting yourself
5. Overthinking
There are 7 things that will destroy us:
Wealth without work;
Pleasure without conscience;
Knowledge without character;
Religion without sacrifice;
Politics without principle;
Science without humanity;
Business without ethics. - Gandhi
Sometimes we need someone to simply be there. Not to fix anything, or to do anything in particular, but just to let us feel that we are cared for and supported.
Good relations are like needles of clock, they only meet for sometime but always stay connected.
Learn to love with all your heart and accept the faults of others in your life.
Remember, anyone can love a rose but it takes a great heart to include the thorns.
Trust takes years to build, seconds to break and forever to repair.
Always end your day with a positive thought...
No matter how things are, tomorrow is another chance to make things better.

Life Quotes
If there's one thing I've learned, it's this: We all want everything to be okay. We don't even wish so much for fantastic or marvelous or outstanding. We will happily settle for okay, because most of the time, okay is enough. - David Levithan
Don't be fooled by your emptiness, there's so much room for happiness!
Two things help success in life:
1. The way you manage when you have nothing
2. The way you behave when you have everything.
Beautiful things happen when you distance yourself from the negative.
When we all help one another everybody wins. - Jim Stovall
Rivers never go reverse - so try to live like a river, forget past and focus on future... always be positive!
We can save many relations, if we understand a simple fact that people are not wrong, they are different.
The secret to living longer and better:
Eat half...
Walk twice...
Laugh triple...
and love without measure. - Chinese proverb
The happiest people do not necessarily have the best things.
They simple appreciate the things they have.
There is a purpose for everyone you meet. Some people come into your life to test you, some to teach you, some to use you, and some to bring out the very best in you.
A lamp doesn't speak...it introduces itself through its light...
Achievers never expose themselves, but their achievements expose them.
While you were waking up today, someone else was taking their last breath. Be thankful for this day.
Life, the start and the end are similar, take advantage of the time in between.
Positive thinking isn't about expecting the best to happen every time, but accepting that whatever happens is the best for this moment.
Sometimes the strongest people are the ones who love beyond all faults, cry behind closed doors and fight battles that nobody knows about.

Life & Friendship Quotes
Don't promise when you're happy. Don't reply when you're angry and don't decide when you're sad.
Life is like a book. Some chapters sad, some happy, and some exciting. But if you never turn the page... You will never know what the next chapter holds.
Love what you have...
Accept what you receive...
Give what you can...
Forgive what you can't...
And bless what you see...
Be the source of light!
One smile can start a relationship.
One word can stop an argument.
One look can make you feel wanted.
One friendship can change your life.
How beautiful it is to find someone who asks for nothing but your company.
I don't need my life to be perfect. I just want to be happy, with a few close friends who love me just the way I am.
Life is better when you are happy but life is at its best when people are happy because of you. Be inspired, give love and share your smile with everyone.
Sometimes a person's silence speaks louder than their words.
As we go through life, we start to understand that it's not important to have lots of friends. What truly matters is that we have real friends.
Best friends are people who make your problems their problems, just so you don't have to go through them alone.
Good friends care for each other, close friends understand each other, but true friends stay forever... beyond words, beyond distance, beyond time.
Let's face it... friends make life a lot more fun - Chuck Swindall
You will be a beautiful person, as long as you see the beauty in others. - Bryant McGill

Chinese Advice to 50-year-olds and Older
Because none of us have many years to live, and we can't take along anything when we go, so we don't have to be too thrifty.
Spend the money that should be spent, enjoy what should be enjoyed, donate what you are able to donate.
Don't worry about what will happen after we are gone, because when we return to dust, we will feel nothing about praises or criticisms. The time to enjoy the worldly life and your hard earned wealth will be over!
Don't worry too much about your children, for children will have their own destiny and should find their own way. Care for them, love them, give them gifts but also enjoy your money or what is left of it, while you can. Life should have more to it than working from the cradle to the grave!
50-year-olds, don't trade in - your health for wealth, by working yourself to an early grave anymore. Because your money may not be able to buy your health.
When to stop making money, and how much is enough? A hundred thousand, one million, ten million, one billion?
Out of thousand hectares of good farm land, you can consume only three quarts of rice daily; out of a thousand mansions, you only need eight square meters of space to rest at night.
So, as long as you have enough food and enough money to spend, that is good enough. You should live happily. Every family has its own problems.
Just do not compare with others for fame and social status and see whose children are doing better etc., but challenge others for happiness, health, enjoyment, quality of life and longevity.
Don't worry about things that you can't change because it doesn't help and it may spoil your health.
You have to create your own well-being and find your own place of happiness. As long as you are in good mood and good health, think about happy things, do happy things daily and have fun in doing, then you will pass your time happily every day.
One day passes without happiness, you will lose one day.
One day passes with happiness and then you gain one day.
In good spirit, sickness will cure;
In a happy spirit, sickness will cure faster;
In high and happy spirits, sickness will never come.
With good mood, suitable amount of exercise, always in the sun, variety of foods, reasonable amount of vitamin and mineral intake, hopefully you will live another 20 or 30 years of health life of pleasure.
Above all -
Learn to cherish the goodness around... like your spouse and friends... They all make you feel young and 'wanted'... without them you are surely to feel lost!
Wishing you all the best for the years to come.

Points to Ponder
If you're going to stay, stay forever.
If you're going to change, change for the better.
And if you're going to talk, make sure you mean what you say.
We think there is enough time to live, but we never know which moment is the last.
So share, care, love and celebrate every moment of life.
A strong and positive attitude creates more miracles than any other thing because life is 10% how you make it and 90% how you take it.
Satisfaction in life is more important than success
Because our success is measured by others
But our satisfaction is measured by our own mind and heart.
If you're going to change, change for the better.
And if you're going to talk, make sure you mean what you say.
We think there is enough time to live, but we never know which moment is the last.

Thoughts...
Worries and tensions are like birds, we cannot stop them from flying near us, but we can certainly stop them from making a nest in our mind.
Relationships are like birds,
If you hold tightly they die,
if you hold loosely, they fly,
but if you hold with care,
they remain with you forever.
Life is short.
Cut out negativity,
Forget gossip,
Say goodbye to people who hurt you.
Spend your days with the people who are always there.

The Filial Son
A son took his old father to a restaurant for an evening dinner. Father being very old and weak, while eating, dropped food on his shirt and trousers.
Other diners watched him in disgust while his son was calm.
After he finished eating, his son who was not at all embarrassed, quietly took him to the wash room, wiped the food particles, removed the stains, combed his hair and fitted his spectacles firmly. When they came out, the entire restaurant was watching them in dead silence, not able to grasp how someone could embarrass themselves publicly like that.
The son settled the bill and started walking out with his father.
At that time, an old man among the diners called out to the son and asked him, "Don't you think you have left something behind?"
The son replied, "No sir, I haven't."
The old man retorted, "Yes you have! You left a lesson for every son and hope for every father."
The restaurant went silent.
