New Perception!

After looking at the my parents wedding picture over and over again, suddenly I realize that these are the looks of almost all bride and bridgroom of yesteryear. Not a single smile on their face. Isn't it suppose to be the happiest day of their life or wasn't there anybody to make up some jokes to make them smile. I still remember during my wedding poses, there was this one guy who constantly crack jokes to make me laugh or smile. Thanks to him, my pictures had all of me smiling away. Actually, smiling comes naturally to me after practising for a few years during my dancing career back then. But after thinking over, I think I understand why they don't smile those days.

Most of them were matchmake. They don't know each other and thus shy. To make matter worst, they were presented on the dias for all to see. See what, see their happiness or see their uneasieness.

Stretching Lesson - The Daring That Starts from Within - Sue Bender

This is book about the risks we take to grow spiritually and the ways we can stretch ourselves to grow beyong our self-imposed limitations. She uses the metaphor stretching to overcome our doubts and the resticted visions of our own possibilities. Featuring her own personal explorations, through her honest and humble grappling with her own fraities and struggles, we discover the larger life lessons that help us to realize the potential that lies within us.

" Perhaps within each of us there is a need to stretch. Perhaps within each of us there is a daring spirit that whispers to be heard."

A sheltered life can be a daring life as well. For all serious daring starts from within.
Treat yourself gently.
Some people will never see us but that does not mean we are not there
A habit learned can be unlearned.
Slow motion can get you there quicker.
Thinking the right thing to do often gets in the way of doing it right.
It is important to choose before you begin
Often the way forward is through a detour
Change doesn't move in a straight line
We are waiting for our souls to catch up.
The world will not fall apart if we let ourselves express our vastness. It is more likely the world will stop falling apart when we do.
It is easier to know what I don't want. It is much harder to know what I do want.
Integrating one's inner search with one's outer practice.
When we can be with who we are, that's how we come to rest.
Why has the pleasure of slowness disappear.
The more you see how you generate your own noise, the more you can be open to silence. If you can develop your silence, you see more clearly where you are - its like having your windows cleaned.
Pay attention to what is beginning to awake within you. The caterpillar can feel the essence of the butterfly even before it begins to emerge.
Not to risks can also be a risk.
You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
Let yourself have more of yourself.
Practice feeling good where you are.
Give yourself the freedom to be dissapointed. Give them the freedom not to love you. Give yourself the ease to be who you are.
Accepting success is also a stretch.
Art prepare the soul for tenderness.
Whenever we touch life, we shape it. We shape it with warm and caring or with our coldness and haste, desire for power and money, desire for good rather than the GOOD. The power to heal and he healed is built into the body into our clay body.
Its never too late to be ready.
To be whole doesn't mean we have to be perfect.
As we become older, art and life become the same thing.
We dont have to be centred all at once.
We can centre along the way.
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyong measure.
Self-critisam inspires shrinkage.
A wise man is never in a hurry - Aristotle
Simplicity is making the journey of this life with just baggage enough.
Leaving stuff out allows me the possibility of putting stuff in.
Silence is the method of getting to spirit.
Old hunger for acceptance.
A habit is just that - a habit
I want to feel I'm in my life - not traveling around looking for it.
To be idle, to be in time, to have time .
I don't have to justify my existence.
Love itself it on trial in a long marriage. with each physical loss, with each dependence on the other , parteners are tested to the limit. Can we love when we are so different physically from the time we fell in love? Can we survive the X-ray intimacy? Intimacy exposes our defects, the habits we don't like, the infuriating differences in opinion. We must stretch to accept our partner's limitations, put them into the larger context of the person's whole being, family history, genetic endowment - see their essential humanness. And then maybe our loved ones can forgive us for not being perfect, either. In real life we often do not see each others as our mirrors see us.
Leave room for the unexpected.
Everyone is worth honoring
I gave myself permission to do what I could do - whatever it was - and accept that as success. No judgement. No blame.
Total acceptance of any outcome was a new way for me to meet a challenge
What I learned in travelling was so much more than arriving.
What makes us wise one moment, and so unwise at another?
You need stability in order to have mobility.
Are you strong enough to stand happiness?
Surprises are there for us - our stretch is to make room for them.
Doubt if you must , but persist. It's the persist that matters.
Each of us has our own way of expressing ourselves. Each of us has something special to give. And it is important to value our way of expressing ourselves - whatever it is. Don't limit your vision. Don't get attached to a specific outcome. Something important may be right in front of you-but it may come ina form you aren't expecting.
My wings may not be ready to soar, but im 'taking root to fly'.
Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart.

There is no shame in happiness - Albert Camus
I never failed once. It was a two -thousand step process ." Thomas Edison
Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty. - Mother Teresa

Mutiara Kata Saya

Hidup ini bagai roda. Adakalanya kita di atas dan adakalanya kita di bawah.

Duit tidak semestinya membawa kebahagiaan tetapi duit boleh membahagiakan manusia.

Kematian pasti akan datang, namun kematian bukanlah satu pengakhiran.

Kata orang, dunia ini hanya pinjaman. Setelah kita kembalikannya, di mana destinasi kita seterusnya?Di mana tempat kita?

Seseorang yang berprinsip itu lebih baik daripada orang yang tiada prinsip. Prinsip menjadi tunjang segala pemikiran, perasaan dan tidak tanduk seseorang. Orang yang tiada prinsip tiada pemikiran, perasaan yang tersendiri dan tindak-tanduknya selalu ditentukan oleh orang lain.

Ujian-ujian hidup menjadikan kita insan yang tabah. Usah mengeluh, usah marah, usah putus asa. Manusia diciptakan untuk menghadapi ujian-ujian ini. Manusia memang telah disiapkan mekanisme untuk mengatasinya. Hadapilah dengan hati yang tenang dan senyuman keyakinan.

Yang lama itu tidak semestinya buruk dan yang baru itu tidak semestinya baik. Yang lama itu tidak semestinya selama-lamanya buruk dan yang baru itu tidak semestinya selalu baik. Kematangan memilih yang mana baik dan buruk bukan datang dengan sendirinya melainkan kita belajar dari setiap kesilapan diri sendiri atau orang lain. Itulah pengalaman. Pengalaman itu bukan apa yang terjadi kepada kita tetapi apa yang kita lakukan dengan apa yang terjadi kepada kita.

Biar buruk rupa jangan buruk perangai. Adab dan sopan membezakan kita dengan binatang. Jangan ikut peredaran zaman, manusia ikut adab binatang, binatang pula dah pandai bersopan.
