Being optimistic

I have to admit, that being optimistic is very difficult for a pessimist like me.  The first sentence itself, you can tell that I am not an optimist.   However, no matter how pessimistic I am, I always try not to post any negative things inside this blog, no complains and no grudges.   Lately I discovered and confirmed myself being a pessimist.  I know it's not very good for me, in terms of health, mental health, etc, etc, so I try to remind myself to be more optimistic. When I drive to work every morning, I used to tune into this radio station which plays English oldies because I like oldies.  Somehow, the DJs for the morning session does not give out a positive aura.  Every morning, the DJs will asked people to call in and tell them about their problems.  If I can recalled much, Mondays is asking people to talk about their problems.  The DJs will give a topic like, 'Why do women complained so much?'    Callers who called in complained about their wives, girlf

Have a good life

An old gentlemen wished me that when I bade him good bye.  He is a retired Austrian man and currently in Malaysia with his wife to visit their daughter, who is the Austrian ambassador in Malaysia. I felt it was a good wish, from someone who had lived a good, long life, still happily married and very joyous and bubbly.  I thought that was very sweet of him, with his limited English, he gave a very nice, appropriate wish.   That makes me wonder, what is a good life?  Others pointed out, "Aren't you having a good life now?"   This journey of life, I have only threaded less than half of it's length, given the probability that I will live to my 80s.  I haven't been through as much as others and many people is telling me, my life is just at the beginning. To have a good life, one has to appreciate everything we have and not worry about anything, be at present moment and enjoy everyday, every second, every moment, and enjoy the disadvantage too.

This post is dedicated to my mom.  Well, I know you are not computer savvy, and most likely you will not be able to see this, and that's probably the reason why I have the courage to write it down here, instead of telling you about it, because we were brought up not to share our feelings so much, especially to people we are close with.  Anyway, you know how I feel. Thank you so much for taking care of me when I was hospitalised.  It makes me wonder, if you were not around, who else can look after me.  Thank you for the meals everyday.  Thank you for looking into our comforts. I know it's not easy being a mom and I guess you get the hang of it after so many years and I suppose mothering instinct came as soon as you had us.   We may not know what you feel all the time, but I am very sure you knew what we felt all the time. Anyway, I have chosen you as mom and I love you, mom!  You are the best!

Had a great weekend!

It was Shri Buddha Puja weekend. We had 1,200 yogis from all over the world, visiting Malaysia. Words to describe what I felt? Joy, love and lots of vibrations. I was also very tired and busy doing things, going here, there, everywhere. I enjoyed mingling and meeting yogis whom I have not seen for a long time. Although the seminar started on 26 April, I could not make it due to a follow-up doctor's appointment. Hubby and I car-pooled with L & K. We arrived at about 12.30pm and had lunch at the Rainbow Paradise Hotel. , the puja venue. Every step we go, we will bumped into some familiar faces. So, there were lots of Jai Shri Mataji, how are you, long time no see and so on. It was also very difficult to locate anyone because of the massive turnout. After lunch, H and I checked-into Copthorne Orchid Hotel, which is about 7-10 minutes walk to the puja venue and rested. Then we went back to Rainbow Paradise for Havan. We were late and sat far from the fire, but
